Everything is perfect except my table is next to the corridor. I already make a reservation in advance but unfortunately, it can’t help. Maybe I need to book much more early.

From the second we arrived until the moment we left everything at the Ninth was perfect The service from all the staff was exceptional and the food was delicious. A really nice touch of celebrating our anniversary with us and a table visit from chef Tanaka was the cherry on the cake. Can’t recommend The Ninth highly enough.
