One of best meals I’ve ever had! I am celiac and dairy free so it was incredibly relaxing being able to share and enjoy a meal with my family for a change! Everything on the lunch menu was gluten and dairy free, with so many fresh choices, as well as vegan and vegetarian options too. We were there for lunch which opens from 12:30, and the service was lovely and very speedy. The restaurant is on the mezzanine floor of the hotel and very easy to access, with a really relaxing atmosphere, looking over the beautiful lobby bar. The location is great as the restaurant is within walking distance of all the main theatres. The gluten free bread was served warm with seaweed butter which was an amazing combination. The meal offered so many unique flavour combinations that we’d never had before, we especially love the saffron mayonnaise and whipped cream horseradish. We also got surprised with a gf/df cake for my family member’s birthday which we all loved. The meal was such a unique experience and we will definitely be coming back!

A coeliac's dream! Amazing to be able to eat completely gluten free and not have to worry, and the food was incredible too. I could not recommend the fish and chips enough - so crispy! I barely noticed everything was also dairy free it was that good.

If I could give this restaurant 6 stars, I absolutely would. Indigo is one of my favourite - if not THE favourite - restaurants worldwide. The fact the entire establishment is gluten free AND dairy free is mind-blowing. As someone who is gluten and lactose intolerant, yet still indulges in other animal products, the offerings on the menu are perfectly tailored to my tastebuds and dietary requirements. The food is inventive, fresh, and flavourful. On the menu, you can find high-quality GF DF versions of usually wheat-and-dairy filled British classics, such as Fish and Chips and Wellingtons, and more modern fare, such as Grilled Spiced Monkfish and Quail Balotine. I also appreciate the commitment to seasonal and sustainable cooking practices. I've dined here with people who don't avoid gluten and dairy, and they have also adored their meals. They are not excellent for GF/DF items - they are excellent and happen to be GF/DF. I absolutely need to highlight the homemade bread and dairy-free butter. I dream of it. I ate my roll and the entire butter spread so quickly, that my server brought me over two extra portions. I ate both of them immediately. They're that good! The atmosphere in the space is cozy and intimate, and the serve is superb. Truly a standout restaurant in London, especially for those with particular dietary requirements. A must!

I dined here with my partner for our anniversary. We had a wonderful meal in a wonderful setting with a wonderful ambience after watching the Lion King. The staff at this establishment are all impeccable and very welcoming. Service was excellent from start to finish, and I would be delighted to dine here again. I would like to give a special shout out to LEROY for making our anniversary so special with his attentive and caring service. He also went above and beyond in making that moment memorable for me. I will cherish that forever . The food was amazing with so much flavour in each bite. Thank you to the chefs who prepared it. Best customer service, I've had this year. Thank you INDIGO!

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. :)

One of the best birthday lunches I’ve had! The food is delicious and beautifully presented! The menu is reassuringly small, but there is something for everyone! As a coeliac it was great to know everything on the menu is gluten free so no concerns about mistakes or cross contamination! The team in both the restaurant and the bar, where they serve the best cocktails, are welcoming and friendly and the atmosphere is delightfully informal, but at the same time feels very special. We will definitely be returning and I look forward to trying the treacle tart which was sadly not available this time.

Loved this restaurant , yes it’s dairy and gluten free (all dishes) but it even impressed my normal partner. The service was attentive but personable , we were never rushed or sat waiting for wine! Will be going back to try their Yorkshire puddings !

The service was first class. The chef even substituted vegan options for the 3 course lunch set. Food was amazing and the atmosphere was just so christmasy! I enjoyed dining here.
