We ate at Number One on Saturday night whilest staying at the excellent Balmoral hotel. Early booking is esssential, we booked two weeks in advance and could only get 6.30pm. We are quite good to ourselves and have eaten in some pretty good restaurants around the world but we both agree that this was the best meal we have ever... more

Quite simply the Number one place we have been. The whole experience from our booking when they asked if there was any special reason for us visiting, if we had dined before, could they arrange anything special for as, just great. If you are going to enjoy a great night out and this was a night out not just a... more

In one word - Fabulous!! I am looking forward to going back. Delicious food, wonderful atmosphere and unpretentious. First class waiting staff who clearly understood the food they were serving. The Chef is a genius. more

Tasting menu was gorgeous. Probably 3 of the dishes - the soup, the foie gras and the lamb - were my favourite dishes of all time. Utterly gorgeous tastes and textures. The fish was ever so slightly overcooked, and banana dessert was yummy but not spectacular. But all in all, would say it's in my top 3 meals ever. Much... more

My husband and I had dinner at the restaurant on Friday 25th September, and I'd like to say what a great time we had. The relaxed atmosphere makes you feel comfortable, tables have a good distance from each other which is another bonus when you like to enjoy the evening with your partner rather than having to share it with... more

Yes, amazing that one can experience such MEDIOCRITY in a restaurant with such a reputation. Under-cooked food; inattentive, supercilious staff; nonsensical sommelier. And it was more than half empty!! Outrageous at half the price. The lesson: do not go near this place on a sunday night, irrespective of of its ostensible "star". At least two nights later, back in London,... more

It certainly lives up the name No 1, we had an amazing dining experience here, the ambience, food, attention to detail, staff, were second to none. Everything possible was done to ensure we had a meal to remember. Couln't rate it highly enough. more

I surprised my partner for his birthday by dining here after reading reviews on trip advisor. The service was outstanding and nothing was too much trouble including the fact I had a food allergy. Each course was adapted to suit my needs and I was never restricted to a particular menu. We chose the Dinner Menu as opposed to the... more

I was lucky enough to be taken here for my birthday and was made to feel like a Princess from the moment I arrived to the moment I left. The whole ambience of the place is perfect and not at all stuffy. The staff were a pleasure - always on hand but without being too overbearing and they certainly know... more
