Overrated - cafeteria feeling - but pricey. The service felt like being on a conveyor belt as we were almost pressed to finish our meal because of a subsequent booking. Food and wine were good but that was about it.

Good food and service was also fine. However, an included service charge of 13% is ridiculous when paying £120/person for the food/drink.... No-one gives me a tip for just doing my actual job. The team were fine, and so I gave a 10% tip. Come on Gaucho... behave!!

We had a large table of 15 for a family Xmas dinner and were given a private room. It was fabulous to have the space and be able to move around and mix a little during the evening. The food was great (on the whole). Importantly the steaks were delicious, and great starters, chips need some work! The staff and service were super friendly and efficient, we'll definitely return.

It’s a steak restaurant. When I order a filet don’t serve me the tail end folded over at the same price. Was Cooked ok but very little sear and no better than a gastropub. Service was slow and lacking, yes it’s Christmas but that’s no surprise or at least apologise for the wait / inattentiveness. Could barely get a drink and honestly for the price I’d rather have eaten in Wetherspoons around the corner.

Decent grub below one of the best Wetherspoons in london, nothing more satisfying than yamming down a steak in the former gold vaults of the Bank of England. Went for a work lunch, nice set menu, lots of variety.

I am a private chef for wealthy individuals and I organise private events using high quality meat so I am very fussy when it comes to eating steak in restaurants. The Chateaubriand we had this evening was sublime, cooked rare to perfection, the wine list is interesting and we went for an Italian pinot noir. The Chimichurri was nice, it would be perfect if a bit more vinegary. Nice cozy atmosphere and the restaurant is elegant, but casual. Professional staff, Ruben served me and my girlfriend and his service was flawless. We will definitely go back again to try different meat cuts. 5 stars well deserved

I was really disappointed with my Gaucho experience.. the steak wasn’t bad but all the sides were really bad.. and for me the sides/accompaniments are what complement the steak.. the chips were cremated so I sent them back and they bought out some new ones that were equally burnt. The other sides we had weren’t great and the starters weren’t the best. Cheesecake Desert was nice though. Service was also slow.

Despite the busy lunchtime, there was a warm welcome, I was promptly seated and served, with a perfectly cooked steak and wonderful staff at the establishment. In New York & Chicago it was Smith & Wollensky for steak, but in London, it can only be Gaucho!

Ruben our waiter was very knowledgeable and recommended great starters (provoleta, empanadas, prawns) we shared a chateaubriand as we were pretty full but it was just the perfect amount. Didn’t try the wines, but the chimichuri margaritas made by Carla were divine. Cannot recommend more!!!

We went for an anniversary gathering & paid for a set menu which was a disappointment. For our starters we were given 3 very small tacos to share between 4 people.. we were also given 3 mini pies to share between 4 people too. For the mains They just put a plate with different cuts of steak & then placed 1 mac&cheese (which is tiny), 1 fries & 1 green salad between 4 people too. The fact that we had to share such small amount of food between 4 was awkward. The meat was just placed on a plate for us to pick off. The dessert was a meringue that was extremely small & overly sweet. The small bowl of dessert was also to be shared between 2… We had an amazing time celebrating with friends & the service was good. But the food itself was not worth the price tag at all.

We stayed at the Club Quarters Hotel London City above this restaurant for 2 nights on vacation the week of September 23rd. Being so busy and getting in late both nights we went to this restaurant both nights. The first night was GREAT! Food was very good and the beer wonderful. Both nights we ordered off the A La Carte Menu and both nights we had Provoleta and Truffle Mac & Cheese. Both nights they were very good. I can't say that about our waitress on the second night. Different waitress the first night, very nice. I believe she was Italian and should find another line of work. I had to ask a second time for a second beer. When she took our order she seemed to questioned that we were only ordering 'Starters' and 'Sides' and not a main course. Maybe because the 'Starters' and 'Sides' were very good as our main! I will say the first night we were there it was not crowded at all and quiet. Not the second night. It was very crowded and very loud. After all our glasses and plate were taken away, we sat for another 10 minutes before our waitress came over to ask if we wanted our check, not if we wanted desert. We took the check. I would dine here again if I'm in London again because the food itself was very good but not if we had the same waitress and if it is very crowded and loud. For the hotel above I rated the breakfast served here and it was awful. The scrambled eggs were a soggy mess and at least there was 1 cereal to choose from!

I recently visited gaucho Steakhouse for dinner with friends, and I was thoroughly impressed. The ambiance was upscale yet cozy, with soft lighting and elegant decor that created the perfect atmosphere for a relaxed evening. The service was top-notch, Sylwia was attentive and knowledgeable, making excellent wine and meal recommendations. For the main course, I went with the ribeye, which was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, just as I like it. The sides of truffle mac and cheese and humita were also delicious. Though the prices were on the higher end, the quality of both the food and service made it worthwhile. Overall, I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for an excellent steakhouse experience.”

I don't know why so many people have developed a negative attitude to Gaucho (judging by various reviews across their restaurants). I've been to this one twice in the last three months and I was really impressed on both occasions. Both times I've visited have been Fridays and the restaurant was very quiet. During the summer holidays on my last visit, there was only one other couple there for lunch. Food and service was excellent. The steaks were really tasty and nicely cooked. Deserts were pretty good too (with the added touch of a birthday message!). It is quite pricey, but then what isn't these days. Good place to go for a special occasion.

We had a Christmas reservation for 20 people last night and it was very below average. I had been planning for 3 months to get one our friends down from Edinburgh to surprise everyone and asked the folly three times (on email, over the phone and in person during the day) if they could not hand over any of the name cards to anyone but myself or if we could take the name card of the person who was coming as a surprise out of the deck. They refused to let us take just his name card out of the deck and then gave all the cards to the first person that arrived (please bare in mind I could not get there early as I was coming straight from an exam an hour away and I told them this). This meant that everyone all saw his name in the name card deck and it completely ruined the surprise we had planned for 3 months. This completely sums up the staff’s attitude- they were rude and had no care at all that this was supposed to be a special meal for us all. We were sat on a long table which was with 4 or 5 other long tables all squished together so it just felt like we were in some industrial food hall. Zero atmosphere. None of the staff asked if we were ready for starters, they just brought them out and the rest of the meal also felt very rushed (also bare in mind no table was booked after us so there was zero need to rush our meal). We felt like we were being pushed through a money making machine - charge extortionate prices for a very below average rushed meal with rude, unhelpful and uncaring staff. Multiple people had to ask 3 or 4 times for a drink and still it wasn’t brought out. I have worked in hospitality for 7 years so I know how it is at Christmas but that doesn’t excuse appalling service and rushing tables for no reason other than to try and make as much money from them as possible. Last year we went to the Barrowboy & the Banker and it was tremendous- staff were so lovely, food was much more tasty and the atmosphere was incredible. Don’t waste your time booking the folly and head straight to the Barrowboy and the Banker instead.

Stayed here in February 2024 for 2 nights. Can't fault the location, probably the best located London hotel I've ever stayed in. Perfect location for the west end, our theatre was a 10 minute walk away. Trafalgar Square is right on your doorstep. Two tube stations are within a 5 minute walk (Charing Cross and Embankment) with four tube lines going through Embankment. Buses also frequent. Staff really friendly and accommodating (I was able to get a thicker pillow as the thinner ones didn't suit me). One thing to bear in mind is that some rooms are below ground level, and therefore have no windows. When I called about a month or two in advance to specifically request a room with a window, I was told that they couldn't guarantee the room we'd get until the day of check-in. Happened to get a very good deal for the price so we chanced it and avoided the basement. Other than that, very happy overall and would stay here again for a good price.

It was a spur of the moment choice as we were in the area. The food and service was great. The staff were very polite. My daughters cutlery was a bit grubby. But overall it was a nice atmosphere there. We went in August 2022.
