Downstairs at One Ninety in City of London

Total five star experience. Impeccable service. The tasting menu was a good option for trying six courses and having them expertly paired with wine. As a single diner I felt very welcomed and attended to. The strawberry creme brûlée paired with a blush wine was an amazing finish to a fabulous experience.

I have been to a lot of restaurants that are 100% gluten-free, but I've never found a restaurant that was also 100-percent dairy free. On top of that it was a fine dining restaurant and all their food was delicious. They had amazing drinks, appetizers, main dishes and desserts. The service was fantastic which is not something we have experienced so far in London. They even put our coats on for us as we left! Couldn't ask for much more. This truly was a fantastic experience overall.

This was one of the best meals I've had in a very long time - regardless of the fact that it's gluten free.Learned of this place in a Reddit discussion about gluten free dining in London. Booked a table during our recent trip, as my wife is avoiding gluten.I felt that this place was pretty fancy, and I personally felt under-dressed. Most folks were in dresses or button up shirts/ties. I wore a pair of khakis and a rugby shirt (on vacation, limited wardrobe selection), but the staff didn't treat me any differently, which was a relief.I believe our waiter's name was Julian (not sure on spelling) and he was incredible. My wife had several food intolerances/allergies, and he made sure they were all accommodated without any fuss.Entree portion sizes were smaller than I am used to, so I definitely recommend you don't skip the starter section of the menu. I would also suggest getting a side - the mains come with only a few extra "side" bits on them, which I didn't feel was enough. We got the swiss chard side. Though small, it was enough split between the two of us.My wife will be traveling to London again with friends in a few months, and this place is already on her list of places to visit. Worth it!

Mark of a truly good chef is when their food can bring out memories. The food was perfectly balanced in taste and at no point did it tip over to being overpowering. Flavours were subtle yet powerful. The ambience, service and the overall vibe of the place could only be summed up as Lively. The best part is, Its a completely gluten-free menu.

Ok, this is a genuine gem!Myself and partner had an incredible time here and can't recommend it enoughCoats taken, beautiful table set, and Patricia, our server, already there to help anyway she could!Fresh bread served with some kind of bacon/onion butter was so delicious I could have eaten that for the whole night!!!We ordered cocktails, Salted Caramel Espresso Martini and a For Love. Well these were perfection, the For Love came with its own little shaker so you could top it up and my martini was like a dessert! Yum bloody yum!Me and my lady have a little game in who will order the best for each course......here's how we got on!We order from the main menu, pigs cheeks and Clarence court egg.....starters!Pigs cheeks were fresh, perfectly cooked, moist and flavoursome!The egg....well that was in a bed of mushrooms, divine in their preparation and mixed with the poached yolk blew my mind!I lost this round! The egg has it!Main course was next but not before we had some of the salmon fizz to cleanse the palette.....nice but not necessary.Trish orders a bottle of the Chilean Grenache, a nice strong but not lingering red, with peppery tones. Was a wine I would drink for breakfast! Delicious and went amazing with the;Venison and blackberriesSirloin in the boneThe venison. OUTSTANDING! DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING ELSE EVEN IF YOU ARE VEGAN.....ITS SO DELICIOUS!The sirloin.....meh. cooked perfectly, looked amazing but the taste of whatever cooked it (petrol??) Resided too much to make it preferable. Grills are good when all you can taste is the food or burnt! We want caramelised flavour, rookie mistake there.We had all the sides and all were 10/10. Chips, crunchy and crisp.Salad fresh and tangy but pointless to order if I'm honest!New potatoes were seriously spot on served with thyme!Greens, were lovely and salty, wilted to perfection!Again Trish wins! Venison all the way!0-2!We plough through the wine and head on to the desserts.....In between this our male server came to take our plates which ended up in a lovely conversation about life, the world and everything ...you know who you are and we will be in Berlin soon!! Thank you for being so friendly and we enjoyed the intelligent conversation with you!!So, we get a great dessert wine, then order the chocolate mousse and the crème brulé!I won't mess about, Jesus the mousse was insane!!!!Crème brulé my arse . ..sorry Karolina/Carolina but this was nothing like a crème brulé......bland, topping was obviously pre made and the base was sad and flavourless....I really have had a million of these and this didn't even rank.... I lose again!0-3 to Trish!We loved this meal. The atmosphere is amazing! You can hear the bar downstairs, the servers are the best I have ever come across and the set up is fantastic. You won't be disappointed but you might want to follow Trishas recommendations from now on!Price £££ out of 5Big thank you to Patricia and our German server (I don't think we got your name but told your restaurant manager how good you were!). You absolutely killed it and made our night!The food is only 50%, the rest is everything else!Thank you!

We had a great and delicious experience at the charlie and the chocolate factory afternoon tea. Not only we're the unique confections very good, even the standard tea scones were on point. Definitely recommend even if it's a bit expensive. My only complaint would be it's underground and busy. So not of lot of natural light and a little noisy. But the decor is nice and overall a nice atmosphere. Music was all children's showtunes like Oliver twist and such.

Indigo at One Aldwych is such an underrated place! It is located near the Lyceum theatre so therefore its perfect if you're going there before/after. The food and service is great and they have a tasting menu which is suitable for vegetarians. I would definitely recommend!!

Lovely place, I put it on my must go places, the service was excellent, atmosphere was tremendous and the food my god the food was lovely. Bare in mind it might be in pocket for some, but do expect to pay more than imagine for the portion, Set menus are the best.

This is my favourite and go-to place for a celebratory or quiet me-time meal. Everyone from the reception to the restaurant staff are just so warm and welcoming! The food is delicious and the best part is that they are all dairy free and gluten-free! Last Saturday I tried their afternoon tea and was so impressed by the selection of savouries, scones and sweet cakes. My favourites include the John Ross smoked salmon, truffle mushroom toasty (with the super cute fried quail egg on top) and the lemon and black sesame cake made with honey from the hotel’s own rooftop. The scones were amazingly good too - I’d say even better than the gluten ones that I can remember. I loved the berry jam most of all. I would have had seconds if I wasn’t too full. Highly recommend and I’ll keep coming back. :)

Fantastic Hotel. Our bags were collected before entering the building. We were shown to the bar before going into the restaurant for afternoon tea. The cocktails were delicious, nuts and olives were an added bonus. The restaurant was fairly small but very comfortable and looked beautiful. The Charlie and the chocolate factory themed afternoon tea was outstanding. The cocktail to go with the tea was served in a smoking glass teapot, great touch! All the savoury dishes were great and the sweets and cakes were delicious. Great staff, they couldn't do enough for us, very friendly and helpful throughout our experience. I would highly recommend.
