This is a cozy French bistro in the heart of Soho with such a cute interior. The food is incredible and very reasonably priced. They even have a pre-show set menu so you can grab a bite to eat before your show. The staff were all very friendly and made sure your every need was catered to even though they had a full restaurant. We had the butternut squash soup, pork ragu and peach crumble. I would recommend any of these dishes, simple delicious.

Lovely meal, friendly staff. BUT, we were served a chocolate mousse desert with pistachio nuts, with no warning. We had already indicated we had a member of our party with a nut allergy (and they held our walnut dressing). Spoke to the manager at the end and suggested they change the menu to include the pistachio. Let’s see if they do…… I’m not convinced after her reaction

Was very impressed by this tucked away French restaurant on the edge of Soho. Was pretty busy which was a good sign and has a nice bustling but not overbearing atmosphere. I had the pork belly which was really well cooked and presented with some fries and bearnaise sauce. Price is at the more higher end of mid-range eats with the mains setting you back £35-£40 depending on sides.

Good location in Soho just behind Oxford Street area with nice decor and candles. 3 of us and bill £125 inc 13.5% service charge. Ordered mussels which were very bland, and had to order bread for dunking which was 5.50 extra. Chips like supermarket fries, although tarragon dipping mayo nice. Ordered burratina salad main (like burrata) and it was TINY! More like a starter, and there was so little salad I wondered if they had brought the wrong dish (£16), so a bit of a rip off, although tasty. Glass of cremant bubbly 10£, but better value ordering a bottle. Put off when table wiped down with an old j-cloth, and waitress cleared glasses before wine finished (stopped just in time).

3rd time I’ve been here now and the food is consistently excellent. Cosy restaurant that feels intimate with high quality menu. The sea bream is sublime, as is the cod and chicken main. It’s rare to find a restaurant in London these days that offers great value for money. This place is a hidden SoHo gem. Definitely on par with Michelin restaurant if not higher. Keep up the good work and see you soon!

Divine place!! Food was amazing! We ate pre theatre so early hence didn’t want big meal and choose some nibbles to start then picked a few cheese plates, everything was delicious. All washed down with a fabulous bottle of Picpoul from an excellent wine list. The service was on point, friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. The ambience and decor is just gorgeous and it was a wonderful start to our date night!! Thanks and very much look forward to returning very soon!!

Great starters and mains but, for a restaurant that prides itself on the menu for the cheese and honey pairings, get them up to room temperature before serving!! If I want a soft cheese, it needs to be soft! Staff however were superb in dealing with customers who were disappointed with the cheese.

I had the crab tagietelle and 2 glasses of rose. Super expensive, dribble of wine for 10 quid a glass (v small glass) and half plate of crab pasta, that came strongly recommended from the waitress. I am never risking going to any Soho restaurant again. The food was tasteless. My friend had the chips which were the highlight looks like of the menu. The only other good thing was we sat outside and had some space. I thought it might be good, chicken looked ok, but why they recommended the crab pasta, it came in a brown sauce, not that tasty and I didn't taste the crab, maybe cos it was frozen? I didn't enjoy it at all. Soho dining it can be very hit and miss and this one certainly missed the spot. Sorry but 100% true. The service was crap too, just not very friendly waitresses.

Outstanding french cuisine, would highly recommend! We ordered the bread with butter, mixed olives, beef croquettes, the pork belly and the crab tagliatelle with red chilli and garlic. The bread was superb, and the beef croquettes lived up to the expectations, they were of decent size, incredibly flavoursome and rich, and great for sharing. The pork belly was very well cooked, soft and full of flavour, and the bacon jam improved the plate by adding a touch of sweetness in addition to the sauces. The best dish was definitely the crab tagliatelle. While one may think that there is not that much crab since it’s shredded, it is in copious amounts, and even the pasta tastes like crab, which is rare to find since many restaurants when cooking with seafood only add tomato sauce and the seafood to the pasta rather than cooking them together. The chilly flavour was perfect, not too much as to overtake the other components of the plate but enough to give it a nice kick. All in all, would recommend, great spot for a dinner in Soho!

Distinctly average food which for what it offered was certainly overpriced. In sum small portions ,no sides with any main dishes which came in fits and starts and one or two were only just warm.Staff tried hard to overcome kitchen inadequacies. 'Extracting the Michael by charging 13.5% service ! Presumably being in Soho they don't rely on return visits. Many better offerings within the square mile.

Blanchette, nestled in the heart of Soho, is a gem that offers a delightful escape into French cuisine with a modern twist. The intimate and charming ambiance immediately sets the tone for a memorable dining experience. The rustic décor, with its vintage accents and cozy seating, makes it an ideal spot for both casual gatherings and special occasions. One of the standout dishes at Blanchette is their chicken. Cooked to perfection, the chicken is tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The seasoning is impeccable, creating a savory dish that leaves a lasting impression. It's clear that great care and expertise go into the preparation, making it a must-try for any visitor. Equally impressive is the starter meat platter. This selection of cured meats is a testament to the restaurant’s dedication to quality. Each piece on the platter offers a distinct taste experience, from the rich and hearty to the delicately spiced. Paired with fresh bread and accompaniments, it’s an excellent way to start the meal and truly showcases Blanchette’s commitment to traditional French charcuterie. The service at Blanchette is also commendable. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and passionate about the food they serve. They are more than willing to offer recommendations and ensure that every guest feels well taken care of. The menu at Blanchette is diverse, offering a range of dishes that cater to different tastes while maintaining a strong French influence. The wine list is thoughtfully curated, complementing the menu perfectly and enhancing the overall dining experience. Overall, Blanchette in Soho scores a well-deserved 4.6 out of 5. The combination of exceptional food, inviting atmosphere, and top-notch service makes it a standout choice for anyone looking to enjoy French cuisine in London. Whether you’re there for the exquisite chicken or the delectable meat platter, Blanchette promises a dining experience that’s both satisfying and memorable.

A lovely little restaurant at the less crazy top end of soho. Visited for lunch and opted for the set menu, with a meat board to start. The set menu has a limited choice but good value for money. Portions aren’t massive but perfect for a lunch. Was nice to be able to order a carafe of wine rather than a full bottle too. Service was attentive and friendly. This place has a few counter seats, so I will definitely be popping back for some wine and cheese.

Very bad experience. Ordered fish with clams for which you needed a microscope, not much bigger mussels and a very dry piece of filet. It came with a nice sauce but nothing to soak it.

Charming restaurant with a gorgeous private dining room downstairs. I dined at Blanchette on a Thursday evening with a work group of 10 people and we had the private room downstairs. We were greeted by lovely staff upon arrival and our waitress for the evening was Beatrice who was absolutely fabulous and very patient and kind to us - the group was very loud and a bit chaotic in some moments… Service was impeccable. Food was delicious - simple dishes executed to perfection. The seabream tartare was the best raw fish I’ve had in my life. I’d been recommended Blanchette by people I worked with previously and I can see why they raved about it, it truly is a fine establishment.

Blanchette recently celebrated its 10th birthday, which means it can legitimately be considered a modern Soho institution in my book. And it's clearly earned that tenure from some exceptional food and fantastic atmosphere. Our dinner for two delivered on both of those. One page of the menu is dedicated to small plates that serve as appetisers - bar snacks, cheese and honey pairings, charcuterie and the like. A special call out to the goats cheese and honeycomb which was the dish of the night. The other side of the menu is a variety of mains with a strong French influence, and both my salmon and my dining partner's moules were delicious (though secretly it was the frites and Béarnaise we couldn't get enough of). We finished the meal with some utterly delicious passion fruit and coffee ice creams accompanied by a very well made espresso martini. Then the atmosphere. The restaurant is small but typically packed, giving it a buzz that you really only get in the heart of Soho. It's exhilaratingly chaotic and charming in equal measure. The only slight drawback was the service. While nothing but friendly, the actual delivery was patchy. The small plates took a while to arrive, only for the mains to then be sent from the kitchen before said small plates had been fully eaten. And the front of house team, who again were entirely cheerful, were also clearly a bit harried. Still, perhaps that's just part of the vibe. Do as the French do, order another bottle of wine and go with the flow...

Very disappointed. I had wanted to try Blanchette for a long time, having heard good things. Had the pre-theatre menu, which seemed like a good deal but the portions were tiny -- I left hungry. The starter was good without being amazing. But I had mussels for the main and they were tiny thin mussels, with grit still in them, very disappointing, and nowhere near enough for a full portion. Hopefully they do better on their main menu but I wouldn't go back to find out.

How my vegetarian parents got food poisoning causing fever and vomiting from the cauliflower dish I have no idea- there must be some serious cross contamination happening in the kitchen. We shared all of our dishes and the cauliflower was the only one I didn’t have, and coincidentally I’m fine! It was also the only meal that they both ate that day so couldn’t be caused by anything else. The food was average, nothing particularly wowed us and we ordered a third of the menu. The cheese beignets were nice but aren’t beignets, they’re fried cheese sticks- very disappointing. Beef cheek was nice but only contained 5 mouthfuls of beef- the squash was really nicely cooked though. The fries were lukewarm when they arrived, had a spongy oily texture, and the bearnaise sauce tasted really lemon-y. Chocolate fondant was okay, but the exterior was dry and the coffee ice cream was gritty, I think maybe freezer burned? Overall a disappointing experience for my birthday meal, I won’t be coming back unfortunately.

It was OK, French restaurant with few options. Service was very slow, and we needed to order the same thing few times before they brought it. The portions are rather small, and needed to eat lots of bread to compensate. They were very concerned about the time we would stay. No more than 2 hours, regardless if we are still eating dessert, or finishing the wine bottles. We went for a business dinner, and needed to discuss important matters, but they said our time ess over and kicked us out. On top they charge a mandatory 13.5% tip. I would not go back.

Went in November. Nice room. Very friendly welcome. However service was uninformed, and not particularly proactive or attentive. The truffle popcorn was a very small portion that was cold and soft despite being £3. Gentle mention got a response of 'oh'. I couldn't be bothered asking it to be removed from the bill, but it would have been the correct reply. One of the starter/snacks was quite good prawn (I think?) croquettes, although slightly under-seasoned. Another, was just bland despite being a cheese-focused dish. Mains forgettable. Didnt bother with desert. Wine list ok although limited by the glass with no help, and the non-drinker in the group felt there could have been a more proactive suggestion for him. Pretty average overall.

We ordered a two course meal and some dishes from the menu. We love the crispy bread with honey and cheese a lot! Croquettes are nice with melty fillings inside, the soup is thick and creamy, and the chicken is tendered. Yet the risotto is comparatively ordinary and the service charge is a bit higher than the normal restaurant. Overall it is a delightful experience.

Great staff- friendly and accommodating! And, nice bar for eating. First course. Pâté be croûte, pickled vegetables, lacked flavor and a little dry. 2nd course. Baked St Marcelin & truffle honey, come on, melted cheese and honey is always delicious. Main course. Grilled pork belly, oyster mushroom and blue crumble apple. The best part of the meal. Not too fatty and a great flavor combo. It came with frites which were soggy and flavorless, unfortunately. Dessert. Chocolate tart, very bad. Also, very limited wine by the glass . Bartender was helpful and knowledgeable. I would return and try charcuterie and cheese. Overall. 7 out of 10. Good 😉 That’s all for now.

Cozy little French bistro. I understand their menu is seasonal. Food tasted great. The service was top notch. They didn’t have any mocktails on their drink menu but the bar attendant who was French (Nance was his name I believe if I remember correctly) made me one of my favs which was Chapman. It wasn’t on the menu but he went the extra to shake it down for me. Thank you! We had the prawns for starters. As main we had the pork belly, chicken and beef. You need to order a side with whatever you choose as main because the description in the main are just garnish aside from the protein. Every little detail on the plate made culinary sense. For sides we had the green beans salad which was nicely crunchy. We also had the fries. I highly recommend this place. Attentive and welcoming staff!

By far the most dissapointing meal i have had while travelling, very underwhelming bland tasting food. Poorly executed dishes.

Nice atmosphere, however overall disappointing experience. Decent starters (sea bream tartare) however the paddock main was rather bland, even though it was recommended by the server. Service was unfortunately understaffed as well, as we had to wait for an unreasonable amount of time to get the server's attention. Not a bad place overall, but there are better places in the area.

Bustling French restaurant with a loud and cosy atmosphere, traditional themes yet unique menu, finished to the highest standard. Very good quality food without the wanky ambience.

Best French cuisine in London, bar none. I adore this very special, authentic, friendly restaurant.

This is not the place to go if hungry, portion sizes were very small and made the place feel a bit pretentious. I had the belly pork and it came with bacon jam and some carrots, no carbs at all. Food was nice but not exceptional. Tables are quite close together, and that combined with the prices per portion gave us a feeling they were doing anything to maximise profits. Service was good. I think if they served the bread for free instead of charging then it would have softened the blow. Ultimately I wouldn’t go back.

The service was brilliant and the atmosphere was really cosy. However, the good was good (not exceptional) and prompt but v. expensive for what it was. For example, the fish main had no veg and was not worth 28.00. The portion of chicken and fish was very small (half a breast of chicken and a thin piece of fish). The prawn starter was £9 for 3 prawns. When sharing this is 1 prawn each for 4.50 which is just ridiculous. Finally the coffee had a really bitter taste and was basically undrinkable. It was one of the worst coffee's I have had. Overall the experience was good but not worth it the cost (90 for 2 with just one glass of wine) and therefore I would not recommend as there are better places to dine for this cost.

Heute hatte ich das Glück, in einem bezaubernden Restaurant als Gourmet-Experte zu essen. Neben meinem Hauptberuf teste ich auch gerne die kulinarischen Genüsse und werde euch hier meine Bewertungen hinterlassen. Das Restaurant war herrlich im französischen Stil eingerichtet, was genau meinem Geschmack entspricht. Als ich angekommen bin, empfing mich eine liebenswürdige Frau, die mich zu einem herrlichen Ort führte. Zuallererst habe ich das ausgesprochen gepflegte Badezimmer begutachtet. Direkt nebenan im Erdgeschoss gab es eine offene Küche, die man von außen gut sehen konnte. Natürlich habe ich auch einen Blick hineingeworfen und obwohl die Küche ziemlich klein war, war der Küchenchef sehr freundlich.Wir unterhielten uns ein bisschen über die Sous-vide-Methode. Er war verständlicherweise nervös, weil ich noch nicht gegessen hatte und er wollte sein Bestes für mich tun. Schließlich könnte ein unangekündigter Tester in die Küche kommen. Das Fisch Tartar mit herbstlichen Pilzen war zauberhaft. Danach kam ein sous-vide gegarter Rindernacken, der unglaublich lecker und zart war, dazu gab es einen bitteren Salat mit Roquefort-Dressing. Insgesamt eine sehr gelungene Kombination. Der Pinot Noir hatte eine kräftige, fruchtige Note und einen langanhaltenden Nachgeschmack. Als Dessert werde ich einen Blauschimmelkäse mit einem süßen Weißwein probieren, der eine leichte Süße aufweist. Insgesamt war ich sehr zufrieden mit diesem Restaurant und der Atmosphäre. Es befindet sich in London und ist absolut empfehlenswert. Ich hoffe, dass ihr in eurem Leben noch viele unvergessliche kulinarische Erlebnisse habt, da gutes Essen eine bedeutende Lebensfreude ist.

We had one night in London and landed on a reservation here (definitely get a reservation). The only con was that they probably needed one more server on, but everything else was perfect. The hostess was fantastic and accommodating when we got stuck in traffic and I heard her giving great descriptions of wine. The atmosphere is so cozy/romantic (some of the tables are quite close but not all). Everything we ate was absolutely delicious and we couldn’t get over the prices, was expecting a lot higher. Would definitely recommend for a date night or group of 4 out!

Food was delicious, really loved the raw honeycomb with the cheese and crackers, slow cooked duck is a must have, interior is rustic and a perfect warm moody setting, would visit again !

Disappointing tbh. Quite slow service despite it being a Tuesday (Oct 3rd, '23). From sitting down to getting mains was about 45 mins (note we had a starter but i can't remember when that turned up). Friendly enough. When ordering we asked if the main was a full meal, or if we needed sides. Told a full meal, received meat only. Offered additional sides again which we obviously took, but we'd finished the mains by the time they turned up. Kind of spoilt the experience. But they did comp the sides (thank you). 2 people, shared starter, mains, sides, 2 alcoholic drinks, above 80-90 quid. Seemed more expensive than i expected. Don't think i'd hit it up again. Didn't seem that French either thinking about it. Asian twist on ceviche (LatAm) to start. Only had Moretti, Italian beer. Pork belly main. Quite weird now i'd written it down... Maybe I'll hit them up for a lunch sitting for a second go.

We had the fixed price weekday lunch - two choices of starter and main, one of dessert. We tried all the dishes and they were all excellent. Mussels were exceptional. Service was great. Lovely ambiance. ❤️

Nice small restaurant in Soho. The food was amazing mainly the best braised beef cheek I ever tasted and the honey cheese was great too. Special thanks to Lina who was nice and professional and suggested for me the food

We found this spot as we scooted around london and wanted to dine alfresco. The seabream and cured egg yolk tartare was a really perfect dish so while it’s on the menu please go get it! The duck was decent, with the skin glazed and roasted well. Seabass and heirloom tomatoes was a refreshingly tasty main. Good food, not spectacular, but enjoyable. I’d would say the best part was the delightful French brunette host that greeted and served us that evening. A real pleasure!

What a find, will be back. Wine, food, service, atmosphere - all on point. Not terribly expensive either. Went with friends and we all ordered different dishes to see how they came out - and every one was sublime. A good concept of ‘French tapas’ style dining that encourages sharing and tasting of the many flavours on offer. And it all tastes better after a bottle of Côtes du Rhône doesn’t it?

Really good food especially for somewhere specialising in set menu dinners. Went in to try as looked really nice and would definitely come back. Waiter was friendly and helpful and place was lit perfectly with candles.

Spannendes kleines restaurant, modern, war praktisch alleine da daher war du musik ein bisschen lauter wie gewohnt, auch ist das restaurant stark parfümiert, immerhin ist der geschmack spannend, ...die speisekarte ist sehr spannend, hatte die pilzravioli und die waren wirklich wunderbar und sehr fein

Great ambiance, service, food and a very extensive wine list! Oysters were sublime, as were the sea bream, crab and asparagus served along with the best chips ever! We tried two desserts - rhubarb and the choux with hazelnut - both were delicious! Will definitely be going back again!
