Dans le Noir? London

"Three words come to mind when describing last night’s experience: immersive, unique, and memorable.

We were party of four celebrating not one, but two birthdays, ahead of the festive period. We had a very special evening, which featured friendly service, tasty food, and a truly unique dining concept. I can only recommend this restaurant, which while expensive, is a well designed and enjoyable culinary experience.

Billy, our guide and waiter, was excellent and a key part of our positive visit to this restaurant. He was friendly, conversational, and fun, which was welcomed by our group as we engaged in some jovial verbal exchanges. We even received two Happy Birthday shoutouts!

A fantastic evening and we recommend groups of a similar size to us visit Dans le Noir ? to experience this restaurant for themselves."

"We had an amazing dining experience in the dark at dans les noir, the waiting staff were absolutely fantastic and exceptional good at what they do. We had Courtney as our waitress and she was so lovely and helpful!

We could not see anything so it got our taste buds guessing. The food was really good and I would highly recommend anyone to go and give ‘eating in the dark’ a go - such a unique experience, thank you x"

"Gal was introduced as our waiter for the evening, and he welcomed us at the entrance to the dining room, explaining everything clearly. When we entered Gal’s domain, the atmosphere instantly shifted. Most of the staff are visually impaired or blind, making them the perfect guides. The front of house team were fantastic too welcoming, organised, and really setting the tone for the whole experience.

Gal explained everything clearly where the water and cutlery were, how the table was set, and the layout of the room without revealing anything about the food.

Nothing prepares you for the complete darkness. Once inside, it was impossible to tell whether my eyes were open or closed. We laughed as we fumbled for our glasses and cutlery, and more than once I felt like I was using a claw machine, hoping the fork actually made it to my mouth. Every successful bite felt like a small achievement. After a few minutes, your senses really start to open up, and you notice sounds, textures, and flavours so much more intensely.

The food was incredible, even though I’ll never know what it looked like, and the cocktails were amazing too. The staff confirmed our booking and dietary requirements seamlessly, making the whole experience feel comfortable and well-organised.

This was a 10 out of 10 experience and one of the best and most unique I’ve ever had. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for something memorable and completely different."
