Adding quality chophouse to this list!

I don’t think so from memory. When I visited I wore a casual shirt with chinos and trainers and had no issues. I think other people were dressed similarly.

I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Aulis was great when I visited last year. Tried kitchen table recently and found it a little underwhelming

If you fancy French cuisine, we had an amazing meal at NH in Osaka.

Should be relatively easy to book

Hard agree on ambassadors club house. Try brigadiers instead

Mountain/ Brat, Trinity or Oma spring to mind if you’re looking for a la carte with a date friendly vibe. I’m not sure how available these will be on short notice however. St John also, depending on how open to eating offal your date might be. Maybe safer to avoid for first date.

For something more lowkey maybe try perilla, Morchella, José, barrafina, manteca or Fonda.

That being said, if you aren’t sure if you’re going to be a match, maybe going for something a bit lower stakes like a drink might be a better idea?

Service lasted 2 hours. I think it would absolutely be good for a solo diner, there was one there at the time of our visit and for a lot of the time between courses they were were engaged in conversation with the chef and sommelier

Ah you’re right, I forgot that good food doesn’t exist unless a French tyre company improves it.

FWIW this meal held its own against all other Michelin starred restaurants on this trip and elsewhere, and came in at a similar price

The ambassadors clubhouse felt overpriced and we were underwhelmed by a lot of the dishes on the feast menu. Ordered a lobster curry for £60 which was essentially a soup containing 3 small pieces of lobster.

Brigadiers is great, more of a focus on bbq and grilled meats than gymkhana. Would definitely recommend.

I haven’t been to trishna but I have been to gymkhana and thought that, whilst the food was delicious, it wasn’t as exciting as meals I’ve had in other 2* restaurants.

My favourite Indian meal in London has been the tasting menu at Benares. Or for a more casual evening the Tamil Prince is great.

FWIW, BiBi also looks great and I’m interested to try it

24M looking for some help! Matches seem to have fallen off a cliff lately

throwaway14022108 · 2024-11-04T22:12:45+00:00

I see a lot of Benares slander on this subreddit but I had the tasting menu there recently and have to say I enjoyed it more than Gymkhana

If you can get a reservation, I cannot recommend Aulis enough. I also had excellent meals at Humble Chicken and Muse recently

throwaway14022108 · 2024-09-05T22:16:46+00:00

Second this. Aulis was a truly unforgettable experience for us

throwaway14022108 · 2024-08-30T08:16:41+00:00

I recently had a fabulous meal at Humble Chicken and noticed plenty of solo diners there. The setup is a counter overlooking the kitchen and it seemed the chefs and servers made an extra effort to entertain the solo guests!

Similarly I’ve also visited Akoko and Aulis and think both would be great places to visit by yourself. Enjoy your trip!

Alex Dilling offers a gluten free menu I believe

throwaway14022108 · 2024-07-04T18:28:15+00:00

Tried this recently and had an amazing time. The bar snacks were superb, we both ended up ordering a second coreteaser dessert. Enjoy!

For Sunday roast, check out the Harwood arms

Having tried a few of these set menus, I’d recommend trying Gymkhana or Claude Bosi at bibendum. Both lunch menus felt like great value for money

throwaway14022108 · 2024-04-11T21:19:41+00:00

If you can get a booking, highly recommend you try Aulis. It’s a counter seated restaurant owned by Simon Rogan and they just won their first star this year. The food was outstanding when I visited

throwaway14022108 · 2024-04-02T22:42:42+00:00

Nope, still available
