Gaucho Sloane in Kensington and Chelsea

As a first time customer I didn't know what to expect but it turned out to be a very lovely experience. The service was excellent, the food exquisite but I would have chosen different music. Thanks, I'll be back!!! Georg.

Very good experience!! I totally recommend it, the service is super friendly and the meat is exquisite. I will definitely return, if you like meat it is your perfect place. Also, very good atmosphere and super comfortable place.

The best dining experience in London. The meat is super tender, it almost melts in your mouth. Everything is very tasty and worth it. In terms of prices, it is a bit expensive, but worth every penny. The service was very good, the staff were very professional and attentive. Everything was explained very carefully by Diego. I recommend it to anyone who likes to eat well and is looking for a complete experience.

Thank you for the wonderful birthday celebration, Diego!

I've emailed Gaucho's customer service prior to leaving this review but because I did not get a reply I wanted to warn other potential customers. My family and I had an extremely unpleasant experience over lunch at this branch. Our waiter was extremely rude from the moment we entered until we left. It is also important to say that there were only three other people at the restaurant apart from us, so nothing 'justified' the lack of respect and extremely slow service we've received - which unfortunately includes the food, as chips arrived cold and steaks wrongly cooked. He mistreated us all along and intimidated us into paying the optional service charge at the end. And I was so overwhelmed I just wanted to leave and never return. Overall, our experience was so negative it had a major impact on the rest of our day out. There are plenty of (much better) options within this price range... avoid at all costs, especially if you're a female and/or dining with children!

One of the best fillet steaks I have ever had. Juicy, flavorful, and paired with great sides. Excellent service and a warm ambiance. A must-visit for steak lovers—can’t wait to return! Waiter Zaklina was very helpful!

Had a great experience dining at Gaucho. The staff were incredible. The service from start to finish was good - could not fault it. Special shout out to Carmine. And when it came to the food, the salted dulce de leche cheesecake stole my heart!! It was so delicious. We will definitely be returning!

My last visit to Gaucho Sloane for a business dinner was truly exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the sophisticated and welcoming atmosphere set the perfect tone for our meeting. The quality of the food was outstanding. The cuts of meat, which Gaucho is famous for, were perfectly prepared and full of flavor. The wine selection complemented our meal beautifully, with expert recommendations from the staff. What really stood out was the impeccable service. The entire staff demonstrated a level of professionalism and attention to detail that elevated the entire experience. They were attentive without being intrusive, anticipating our needs and making sure our dinner went smoothly. I must give a special mention to the person in charge, who personally made sure that our experience was exceptional. Their knowledge of the menu, combined with their warm hospitality, added a personal touch that made our business dinner even more enjoyable and productive. Overall, Gaucho Sloane exceeded my expectations in every aspect. The ambiance, exquisite food and exemplary service combined to create a truly memorable dining experience. I will definitely return for future business dinners and special occasions.

Thanks again to Davide and the Italian manager for such a pleasant experience. The attention to detail in guiding us through the menu made us feel very at ease with dietary needs. My husband loved the wine pairing!

Gaucho Sloane Square is a must-visit. The food is incredible, especially the perfectly cooked steaks. Service is top-notch, attentive and friendly. A special thanks to Carmine, the manager, whose warm welcome and attention to detail made our experience truly exceptional. Highly recommend!

I went here with high hopes, but my experience was terrible. I have never experienced anything like this before—everything was awful. Our orders were wrong, and we were charged a £63 service fee. Diego gave us an Americano and a brownie as an apology, but we later realised they had added the cost to our bill. This is ridiculous. I will never visit any branch of this restaurant again.

Karmine was very welcoming and provided us with a lot of assistance during our meal. Will be visiting again soon.

Terrible Experience – Poor Service & Mistakes Everywhere I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience at this restaurant was beyond disappointing. From start to finish, the service was chaotic, and the staff seemed either careless or completely overwhelmed. Service Disaster: Our waiter spilled wine all over the table and barely made an effort to clean it properly. We had to ask for napkins ourselves. Wrong Orders & Overcharges: Our starters were incorrect—an empanada we ordered never arrived. Instead, they brought an extra taco, claiming it was "on the house," only for us to find it added to our bill. We had to argue to get it removed. Main Course Mess: Almost all our main dishes were either completely wrong or not cooked as we requested. It felt like they didn’t even bother checking the orders. Suspicious Billing: They gave us a discount (which we never asked for), but then we noticed additional items mysteriously appearing on the bill. Inexplicable Counting Issues: We were a group of seven, but the staff refused to acknowledge it. They set up six places, brought six glasses for wine, and even after repeatedly asking for an extra set of cutlery, they only ever brought six. This was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had. The lack of attention to detail, constant mistakes, and billing issues made it incredibly frustrating. Definitely not a place I’d return to or recommend.

It was the worst dine in experience I have ever had. Place was really cold for starters. Service was terrible. Red wine spiled all over our table and my husbands white jumper so we have great stains on our hand from the beggining of the night. Our waiter make a very small effort to clean the table it ended us to clean all the mess and he left us without taking our orders for almost an hour. Our starters was wrong. They send us tacos in house which we realize it ended up our bill at the end of the night. Empanadas we orders never made their way to our table. When it comes to mains, none of us (we were 7 which they didnt stop thinking and serving like we are 6!) manage to eat what we ordered. Cooking levels was completely wrong and end up blue meat on our table for medium rare orders. They offered us some discount which we didint ask for but our bill has service charge a double espresso which we never ordered and 6 tacos supposed to be on the house. For the first time we didnt even want to see coffee and desert menu and run away from there as soon as we can. I have never write a bad review before but this experiance we had was another level.

Me and my friend Jake had a lovely time at dinner here. Diego, our server, was exceptional. He was friendly and checked in with us when needed. Would come again

We visited the restaurant for a special occasion. The service was ok, but we had to wait a long time for the desert and we could feel the pressure that was behind the kitchen and for the waiters which some of them seemed to be totally confused. In addition to this restaurant is super over priced for the value of the food and drinks they have on the menu, an example a simple glass of Susanna Malbec 2022 we paid £20.00 when at the supermarket you get a bottle for £25..00 and in the restaurant they sell the bottle at £80.00! The water £6.00, you go to a 5 start hotel in London and you you pay £4.50. I honestly think they should carefully review the prices on the menu as they completely don’t make sense and are unreasonable.

Where should I start. I don’t think I have enough characters to explain all the problems. But I can say our meet up with our friends was destroyed. We laughed a lot but not because of joy, because of ridiculousness of repeating issues. Atmosphere: it was very cold. The heater that they bring next to us was showing 16 deg. Celsius. Service: Very poor quality on vine service ended up with spilled vine. Partially cleaned table. Rather than managing the situation waiter went to other tables without properly cleaning our table and came to take our orders after an hour. Order: 3/7 orders came wrong. They constantly kept forgetting that we are 7 people. Cooking temperature of the meet was completely wrong. Medium-rare came rare even inside was cooler than my body temperature. Medium ones came half of the meat medium other half rare. Well-done ones came half burnt half medium. Missing starters. The offerings to apologise was added to our bill. More apologise ended up with poorer quality. Branch manager was very upset about the experience we had and offered us discount. We wanted to get out asap and didn’t notice that service charge was still on the bill. Anyway we went to other branches before and they were pretty good.

Our waiter Diego was an absolute treat. Great vibes from the moment we sat on the table. Even on a hectic Valentine’s Day service, he made sure that we were taken care of to a very high standard. Wish you all the best Diego, thank you for the spicy margaritas!

The food is lovely, but the waiters were far too busy and were basically running around the restaurant which didn’t make for a good atmosphere as it wasn’t relaxing. I asked for a beer which never turned up, which was a shame and they then included it on the bill which I had to have removed. Our waiter didn’t speak to us once after we ordered which felt poor for what is quite an expensive restaurant and I am not sure they really earned the 13% service charge

Had an amazing time, great service. Our waiter Diego was very accommodating and entertaining. Couldn’t recommend more.

Wonderful experience, Diego made it special and catered well for my girlfriend’s allergies. We will be back!

I, my guest was seated in the rear area of the restaurant, and it was freezing cold. We were not the only ones to complain about it, so when you book before you are seated, make sure you don’t sit in the back area. Otherwise, the restaurant is a delight.

The chairs need to be replaced, it’s so uncomfortable and feels really cheap. The arrival experience is dreadful with an over crowded entrance and unimpressed by the welcome. Food good (except the starter which was an attempt to a pizza?? from the valentines menu)

Small portions 13% gratuity Overall expensive Food average The decor is dated and tasteless

Meat was good and wine decent, but everything else very poor, such a shame to see how far standards have fallen at Gaucho. Won’t be returning.

I wanted to share some feedback regarding our recent experiences with your steak dishes. My partner has ordered steak from your restaurant three times via Deliveroo. The first experience, over a year ago, was disappointing. However, he decided to give it another try yesterday and was pleasantly surprised—it was cooked perfectly to his preference (medium well), which led him to order again today. Unfortunately, today’s steak was significantly undercooked, arriving nearly rare despite the same medium-well request. This inconsistency is concerning, as it suggests a lack of standardisation in steak preparation. Given that the steak was prepared correctly yesterday, it’s clear that your kitchen is capable of executing a medium-well steak properly, making today's inconsistency even more puzzling. 🙃 Consistency is key in any kitchen, and not all customers enjoy or can stomach undercooked steak.

Wonderful as usual. Service, food all are excellent.

The ambiance is warm and inviting, staff are friendly, and the food is exceptional. A great spot for both casual meals and special occasions. Highly recommend!

Gaucho - Argentinian restaurant so beef is the go to. The steaks almost melt in your mouth! You must NOT order meat well done. It’s an insult to the animal you are eating. Much against my wishes my lady friend asked for well done. Lucky her order was screwed up and she received just shy of medium. The food is superb!! I will put my name to any restaurant that delivers food how I expect.

Brilliant & attentive service from Claudio today. Lovely chap!

Our server Diego was fantastic, he took the time to explain the menu and different cuts of meat and made us feel welcome throughout! The food was wonderful, we followed his recommendations and had an amazing time. Would recommend and we will be back!! Quality steak and sides (esp cavolo nero), good wine also.

Worst burger I have ever had.. It was burnt. I ordered via the app. This is supposed to be wagyu. It was worse than a standard burger. Thin patty that was burnt with the bread and chips and burger were luke warm

We had Diego as our waiter, he was very good. Helpful at every point and offered recommendations to help us make decisions. We had 3 different type of starters the salmon tacos weren’t that nice but the empanadas were lovely. The focaccia bread with the prawns in tomato and oil sauce was lovely too. We both enjoy the taste of the steak but weren’t too keen on our side the broccoli was a little too crunchy but softer broccoli might just be my preference. The mash potatoes were okay and the mac and cheese was not great. I’m usually a peppercorn sauce but I didn’t enjoy it there but the chimichuri was very nice. Finished off with cheesecake which was nice. The restaurant is lovely in terms of decor and ambience, this was my first time at this particular gaucho. They also cater for a halal diet, which is great.

The place to go for carnivores. Absolutely the most beautifully cooked steak in london!

I've had an excellent experience at the restaurant. Outstanding food and excellence service. I would highly recommend. Can't wait for the next experience.

It was a great meal for our last dinner in London. The food was seasoned just right so I didn't get tired of it while eating it. I stayed at the Chelsea Cloisters right next door during my trip, and I recommend checking it out if you're staying there. The price is a bit high by Korean standards, but I think it's worth it. Especially our server diego is very friendly. My friend fell in love with deigo's fantastic accent and kept saying fantastic~ throughout the trip. Thank you Diego and gaucho

GAUCHO’s you did it again! Woaw what a great meal. I loved the Burger although I’ve enjoyed the Wagyu burger in the past and recommended it to my lunch. I went with the Old classic Burger and it was outstanding, Chips breathtakingly good and Now dessert I preferred your old cheesecake although small it was PERFECT. I’m not fond of your current Baked cheesecake but luckily the sizzling unbelievably glorious sticky toffee pudding stole the show and capped off a delightful meal. Thanks again GAUCHO

ITS DOG FRIENDLY!!! Dined here a few times now, you must get the steak! Great wine too. Deserts are most likely microwaved frozen rubbish so get plenty of great sides so you don’t need a pudding! Staff are a bit erratic, some poor communication and forgetful while others clearly love what they do and are very knowledgeable.

Gaucho had a special deal where they offered guests a free 2 course meal and you only paid for drinks, service charge. We had a lovely meal (fish and steak) which tasted great. Staff were attentive from the minute we arrived at restaurant. An enjoyable lunch!

Came for new years dinner - food was great as usual - but wish they would have made a tiny bit more fuss about the moment - like a proper countdown or something - apart from that great !

Service was excellent. We were very well looked after and the steak was amazing. The Argentinian sausage platter for sharing as starters is a must do.

The food was delicious and the people were very friendly with us.

I had an exceptional experience at Gaucho Sloane Avenue where the quality of food and elegant atmosphere shined. The cuts of meat were cooked to perfection and accompanied by an excellent selection of wines. I especially want to highlight Diego, our waiter, whose attention was impeccable. Their knowledge of the menu, thoughtful recommendations, and friendliness made our visit even more special. It is certainly a place I would recommend to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in London.

Excellent place. We were served by Diego who was extremely attentive and went the extra mile. Highly recommended!

For me, this is the unsung best Gaucho in London. Exceptional and friendly service, attentive, but not pushy, and knowledgeable staff made the wine and steak pairings a delight for lunch. It's a relaxed but professional location, and it doesn't feel like you're being rushed through your meal (an experience I've had elsewhere), making it all the more enjoyable and as it is 'meant to be' at such an institution. All in all, if you want the best central London Gaucho experience, you cannot go wrong here.

Unfortunately, our family meal at Gauchos on Christmas Eve was far from the high-quality dining experience we expected. The 3 sirloin steaks, while nicely marinated, were tough and riddled with gristle, making it hard to justify the premium price point. The fries were inconsistent—half were well-cooked, while the rest were underdone. The Wagyu burger was shockingly bland, reduced to an unseasoned lump of meat with no discernible flavor. The grilled sea bass was equally disappointing—dry and unappetizing. We were so underwhelmed that we left without ordering dessert or any further dishes. The only saving grace of the meal was the excellent Provenance wine, but it wasn’t enough to salvage the evening. For the price, I would recommend exploring other restaurants where the quality of the food matches the cost. Even though the staff were kind enough to remove the meals that were left untouched due to the distaste. Unfortunately, we won’t be returning.

Great value for the quality of the food, great service. Good place for group dinners. Lots of wine choices particularly Malbecs . Would recommend it.

I loved all but they should have told people that we had a little More than an hour to eat

«Me encantó el ambiente! La comida era preciosa — saludable, ligera y deliciosa. El servicio era excelente, y el ambiente era verdaderamente excepcional. Un lugar perfecto para disfrutar de una comida!”

Everything was top-notch!the service and the food was fantastic!

Very quiet location. Amazing steaks and service! Would definitely come back.

Steak was superlekker !! Topbediening door onze ober ´Diëgo´ die ons super geholpen heeft. Door de verschillende sidedishes kan de prijs wel vlug oplopen

Lovely vibrant restaurant. Waiter was great. Most of the food was good. Scallops were a bit tough and one of our steaks was also. Otherwise everything else was lovely.

We had the most amazing time with my husband tonight the food was amazing, and Argentinian wine is always fabulous but what made our night was Diego's service, he was so friendly and gave us the best menu recommendations. He made our night at Gaucho even more memorable. We look forward to coming back!!

Vibrant restaurant, waiter was great. Scallops were tough and dry, also one of our steaks. All other food was great.

This is a solidly, reliable place to get a decent steak. They are also dog friendly. Davide the waiter was very efficient and polite - thank you !

Diego really welcomed us and was great service

The restaurant left a disappointing impression. They served a plain, mediocre steak, with no flavor or presentation. Nothing special and definitely not worth the price. Wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for something truly delicious or worth the money

Diego was the most amazing waiter ever. He turned our lunch into an unforgettable experience.

El ambiente está bien. Menú no tan malo. Ribeye es delgado, rechoncho y definitivamente no tan tierno como se supone. Pommes dauphinois saben bien, pero a grasoso Finura total perdida

Diego was really lovely with the service! He made sure that everything was perfect for my birthday. I appreciate it!

Glen and zaklina are both amazing. Service so good I don’t think I am in london. Busiest night of the year and they treated us like the royal family.

We celebrated our corporate Xmas Dinner at Gaucho Sloane Avenue, and the team had a great evening. I had the carpaccio as a starter and a steak as main, which were both really good. The highligh of the evening was actually not the food, but our waiter Diego. What a profesional! We were a medium-sized party, and he managed our table extremely well, always with a smile and super attentive. His personable approach was great, he read the room well and understood very early that we were a cool bunch, which just made our interactions with him so much more natural, with some jokes here and there. I have been in hospitality for many years, and it's always the people and experiences you remember the most, and this was no exception. We will definetly be returning soon to Gaucho's.

The appetizers seem to have more flavour than the steaks

Perfect service, food and atmosphere. The person who served us was incredible too.

Food was perfect, service was perfect. Diego as a server is someone everyone deserve to experience. He was so nice and caring. 11/10 experience, will definetly come back on my next London visit.

The steak restaurant my girlfriend took me and my grandma to. Everything is very delicious. The meat is very delicious. The elders recommend and provide good service ❤️

Had a lovely dinner at Gaucho Sloane Square. Our server Diego was extremely attentive and the food was great as always, 10/10 would recommend

A lot of kids for a Saturday evening dinner, very slow service

Friendly staff Service was good before it got super busy Food was ok - but not exceptional or as good as it used to be Apple crumble was amazing

We dine at the Piccadilly venue very regularly but Sloane is now our favourite. The food was exceptional and the service from Joanna and the team 1st class.

Did the Mastercard cocktail Masterclass. The cocktails were amazing. Highly recommend

Had a great experience at Gaucho, Diego took great care of us!

Gracias Zaquelina, Glen y Diego, así como todo el personal por su amabilidad. Gran servicio y usted hizo sentir a mí y a mi esposa muy cómodo. Llegamos hoy de Lisboa Portugal y estábamos cansados. No teníamos nada decente en el avión y teníamos hambre. Necesitábamos carne y recargar energía. Antes de entrar mi esposa miró las reseñas de los tripadvisores e inmediatamente al comienzo de la comida, me dijo: Cenaremos bien hoy. Es mucho mejor que la calificación. Zaquelina fue tan eficiente y rápida y dejó una impresión gigante. Sólo podría ser excelente. Glen era tan amable y nos guió también. Diego servía a la mesa del vecino con su acento español también era tan eficiente. Wowww La carne estaba 👌como debería estar❤️ Para terminar el postre, otra sorpresa. Quería tomar fotos de la comida, pero no tuve tiempo. Era demasiado bueno. Así que nos fuimos con un corazón cálido y gracias a todos.

Wonderful experience with my family. The food was excellent - hats off to the chef. The service was amazing, special mention to Davide, who was very tending to our needs and provided top service. Will definitely be coming again!!!

Great restaurant. Delicious meats. Diego our waiter was very attentive and gave us great recommendations.

Lovely Sunday lunch with four adults and four children. The children were well looked after with activities and a very good children’s menu. Our whole party ordered steak(rib eye, sirloin and fillet) and we were very pleased. Sides were ok nothing special but the chips were not very good

Lio and Joey were great bartenders for the Galante Lounge and provided stellar service.

Francesco took very good care of us. There were eight of us and half were children and were well accommodated with activities and a very good children’s menu. We all ordered steaks and were very pleased with the quality and execution. My only negative were the chips which were a bit cold and dry.

The food not the best and the atmosphere and the toilets were all dirty and the staff really unprofessional all the time. Would not recommend this place to anyone.

Diego was an excellent waiter!! Excellent service

“Great food and amazing service! Diego was super nice and did an excellent job. Love their signature cocktails.

The service is very good even though we went here on Monday and there’s only a few costumers. The server named Diego did a great job! We love the food and especially the apple crumble!!

Excellent food and incredible service! Will be back.

Very good experience with Diego as our waiter we really enjoyed our dinner

Edison is the MAN!… thank you for such an enjoyable evening , great service and superb food!

The burger is amazing and Diego was very welcoming and a fantastic server!

Amazing service from Diego. Couldn't ask for better. Amazing food.

Diego served us and it was the best waiter I have met so far. Really good food and atmosphere. Recommend!

I would just like to start of by saying Edison had perfect service while waiting for us. He was really respectful and gave us good recommendations for our cocktails! perfect service from edison.. other then that the food was perfect definitely visiting again

Fantastic food and top service from Cloudio Thank you

Lovely restaurant with very efficient gent serving us - knowledgeable and friendly. We took our Dachshund with and they were happy to accommodate. Quite dark inside but nice night had.

Amazing dining experience at this beautiful venue. All meals were delicious, and we were so excited by the dishes that we forgot to take photos. Impeccable service by all the staff but especially Davide.

Good food, nice service. Only thing is the last time visited the cheesy bread was not as good as is normally. But will definitely visit again.

Thank you to diegp for an amazong night!

We had the best night celebrating our Anniversary. Special mention for DIAGO who was amazing!! His friendly, welcoming manner was a pleasure from the start. He made us feel very special. The food was outstanding. Everything perfectly seasoned and so very tasty. Wine suggestion was a perfect match. Could not have asked for more. Steak Night Date Night is a must do.

Best dinner expires , Davide with Francesco and Freddie made our evening

The food was very good, but given this was the everlasting roast option for our table of 6 we didn't get offered the top ups and had to chase everything. We were not offered any other meats, only beef, there was a delay in getting the Yorkshire's to the table, when we did ask for more meat, veg and gravy it was sparse portions for a table of 6. Our waiter, Marcel, was very good but it felt like there were a lot of people not pulling their weight and the restaurant was far from busy. Overall slightly disappointing, when it could have been excellent.

Once upon a time, Gauchos was cool…but not anymore. The interior is very dated and not well maintained. It feels like they are just milking it for cash and have given up on trying to make any effort. Our food all arrived cold, including the steak which they then researed and the result was that it ended up overcooked. Not wanting to complain a second time we ate it. For a steak restaurant to get steak wrong us in acceptable. They should have cooked a whole new steak. I will never go back and would not recommend it. London has so many better options at this price point.
