Pierre Victoire in City of London, Westminster

Excellent food, excellent service.

Food was good, service efficient but the atmosphere makes this place- does feel like a tiny little corner of France. Quite discombobulating stepping out into Soho!

Delicious, I recommend snails for starters

Another lovely lunch! Highly recommend!

Not the best experience. Restaurant was too cramped and noisy inside. Food was mediocre. There are much better French places in the west end for a similar price.

Food itself was pretty good but let down massively by a poor atmosphere and small portion sizes for what is charged. I fail to see how the Sea Bass was £5 extra on top of the set menu deal. Left feeling short changed. Tightly cramped tables and very loud diners made this quite an uncomfortable dining experience. I think this suffers from being a bit of a tourist trap being located right off of Oxford Street. Wait staff were friendly but a bit too overbearing with check backs.

£33 for an excellent meal inc a house red. Service was superb as I was in a rush. Great chips and sauce too. I hope to be back.

Food was fine for the price but better is available. Also very cramped and loud.

Two course lunch at Pierre Victoire. This restaurant and its sister down the road have been here for ages. The menu is always different so sometimes it captivates. Finally gave them ago and it was a bit disappointing. The braised rabbit [in] tarragon and mustard sauce, white beans, swiss chard and crispy leeks was dry and tough like chicken breast that had been fried. The colour of the exterior meat was dark and hard while it was white in the middle how it should be. It was not braised in sauce as stated on the menu. Clearly, it can be seen that it was an oven roasted rabbit placed on top of the tarragon sauce. However this other restaurant in Farringdon serves it like this place but the meat isn't dry or discoloured. General pictures of this dish on the web show rabbit in sauce like a casserole. Restaurant offered to change the dish but I couldn't be bothered to wait again.

Stunning cuisine, top hospitality, very pleasant environment. Advised.

We booked a family dinner for four. Unfortunately, I was robbed during our dinner, which is extremely surprising for a restaurant of this standing. My backpack was stolen — it contained my entire wallet, ID, and corporate laptop. What’s even more disappointing is the total lack of support from the staff. They didn’t assist us in any way, didn’t offer an apology, and the CCTV cameras were not working, which made the situation even worse. No one helped us with the necessary steps after the incident, and the restaurant never reached out to follow up. I strongly advise against going to this place, whether you are a tourist or not. There are many pickpockets inside, and it’s hard not to suspect that the staff may be complicit. Be extremely cautious. Disclaimer: Food was quite good

Excellent meal . Will be back for sure

Gorgeous food, lovely helpful waiters . A real find when in London. We booked by chance for a pre theatre meal and would definitely return ! Please do yourself a favour and try this place out ❤️

What a fantastic restaurant . Great food, service , staff and price. Go immediately

Very good food, attentive and respectful staff, I warmly recommend.

The place is very cozy and elegant. Mirza served us with exquisite treatment and advised us very well to choose a meal that was very generous and had spectacular flavor. We will return.

Excellent food and restaurant! Fish of the day was Hake, best fish dish I have ever had

A Hidden Gem in Soho – Unmissable! Pierre Victoire in Soho is an absolute delight — a cosy, authentic French bistro that nails both atmosphere and cuisine. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with warm, attentive service and a charming, relaxed vibe that feels like a little slice of Paris in the heart of London. We had the mussels, French onion soup and the star of the meal, the fish of the day, absolutely outstanding!

Came for a family dinner. Food was delicious, Mirza and Alara were lovely staff

Very fair price for 2 course set lunch but took one star off because it is ridiculously noisy and tables are packed so close to each other. Good luck hearing your date without shouting if you are sitting across from each other

A very lovely place to have dinner with friends or loved ones! My friends and I had a great time here tonight. I ordered the mussels & seabass, my friends had the steak tartare, chicken liver pâté, duck confit, and steak frites. Everything was so fresh and tasty! Not to mention, the staff were especially kind and helpful. I’d like to give a special thank you to Mirza and Murat for their friendly service. Your smiles and kindness, along with the delicious dishes truly made our day :D

Food is amazing, and Mirza the server as well.

Mirza was a legend! thx for this good service.

What a lovely lunch in the Soho sunshine 🥰 Service was attentive without being overbearing. All food was of great quality, presentation and value. Saved PV as a place to return to whenever in London.,

La excelente relación calidad-precio £ 18. 90 dos platos incluidos bacalao estofado y salsify. El bacalao estaba delicioso y exquisitamente cocido al igual que el salsify. Encantador e imaginativo tener un vegetal tan inusual, y especialmente en un menú de fijación de premios. Antes de eso tenía - de nuevo muy bien cocinado - mejillones en salsa de ajo, que era delicioso. Y me alegré de haber optado por el ratón chocolate. Estaba lleno de sabor e incluso tenía un trozo de chocolate. Y el servicio fue amable y eficiente.

Amazing food, you much try the steaks here. Perfect choice for dinner and lunch. Highly recommended.

I've been here in London. I haven't had any really great food since I was staying at the hotel near Excel London for conference. Today, I got a chance to visit the London city and this restaurant just next to Tottenham Court Rd station is awesome. The set lynch is a great value.

We had a lovely evening out, delicious food

Lovely food. Waitress was lovely. Would be helpful to indicate which dishes are gluten free

Found this lovely French restaurant by chance. Food is excellent…Atmosphere is so nice☺️

I attended with a friend in the afternoon and chose the set menu. There was an abundant selection, and the set menu and alcoholic beverages were reasonably priced. The food tasted amazing and was cooked to a professional standard. Our waiter was pleasant, attentive, and always smiling, and the atmosphere was cosy. I look forward to returning to the restaurant sometime.

Honestly I think you would be hard pushed to find a better set menu for food quality and price in london.

We had a wonderful dinner with my friend, atmosphere was amazing food quality and service was excellent, many thanks for staff especially Mirza, Murad and Naga. We will be back soon

Very good restaurant. Good food. Affordable. Good staff. Close to the Elizabeth line. And the staff always seem to manage to pack in more people

Had an amazing dinner at Pierre Victoire! The steak was cooked perfect juicy and flavorful. Our table was served by Naga and Murat, who made the experience even more enjoyable with their attentive service. Definitely coming back!

The staff was great and the place is charming and cosy. My lamb shank and haddock tartare were decent given the price but my issue, as a French man in a French restaurant, was the bread. The baguette is industrial (see markings under the bread) which is a shame when there are now so many great bakeries in London (E5 or Dusty Knuckles for e.g.). The crackers for the cheese were from Tesco as we saw the waitress pull 5 crackers out of a £1.25 Tesco pack as she was preparing our £11.95 cheese platter. I'm not suggesting the restaurant should make their own but there's widely available much better offering out there like Peter's Yard

Restaurant Français dans le quartier de Soho, découvert au gré de notre ballade dans le quartier. Bonne cuisine, cela change des fast food et restaurants Italiens que l'on retrouve partout à Londres. Menu avec deux plats abordable pour Londres, le service n'est pas inclus dans le tarif par-contre, compter 7£ en plus sur la note finale et privilégiez la bière plutôt que le vin.. ou une carafe d'eau. Le service est rapide et les serveurs agréables. La déco de la salle avec des affiches sur la France est agréable également. Nous avions un groupe de 6 personnes derrière nous donc évidemment un peu bruyant mais sinon les tables sont relativement espacées. Je recommande ce restaurant

Solía ir a PV a menudo y no han sido por un tiempo - pasó por hoy y decidió entrar - gran decepción - el líquido del paté de hígado era horrible y la pata de pato se quemó - qué pena, mal quedarse con los buenos recuerdos del pasado, pero desafiantemente no volverá allí

I've walked past this restaurant many times and thought how nice it looked. Well, I was right! I went for dinner 2 nights ago and it was even better than I had expected. The atmosphere is charming, a pianist was going through a repertoire of perfectly judged tunes and the staff were all delightful and efficient. The food was gorgeous. I had trhe aubergine to start; it must be one of the most delicious starters in London! Then I had very tender duck and my companion had a perfectly cooked bavette. There is a very good wine list at a good range of prices (the Primitivo was a pretty powerful but delicious wine). As the evening grew late, Murad chatted with every table and was professional and extremely pleasant. I can't wait to go again, what a loverly restaurant.

Gran experiencia para una primera visita. Estábamos sentados en la planta baja, que no era tan agradable como la planta superior. Pedido mousse de hígado de pato y sopa de cebolla francesa para empezar y para bourguignon de ternera principal y pato para la red principal. De postre tarta de manzana tarta. Todos estaban deliciosos, buenas porciones y bien saborizados. Gracias a nuestro servidor Mirza por su profesionalidad y cuidado. Sin duda volveríamos. Gran proximidad a la estación.

It was a great evening. Thanks…

Delicious, quality food, great atmosphere with live pianist and incredible personal service from Murat. A great birthday treat.

Mirza was amazing Mirza was wonderful restaurant piano

Came across this beautiful quaint restaurant by chance which looked so lively so decided to give it a go. It did not disappoint. The food was delicious and our waiter Murat was very friendly and accommodating band the services efficient and swift. I had the goat cheese salad followed by the duck confit and my husband had the mussels and the beef bourgignon with a glass of red wine. We then both shared an amaretto tiramisu which was more than enough for two people. We highly recommend this friendly place with delicious food and we'll definitely come again!

Mirza is really helping and friendly, also the foods were amazing. We had Lamb Shank and Entrecôte Steak for main dishes both were delicious, would definitely highly recommended.

Everything was great, delicious food. Mirza created great atmosphere

Mirza was a great server!! Wonderful food, lovely vibes, all round delightful experience x

Great food at a great price! Our server Mirza was great! We sat downstairs and it was a super nice atmosphere

What a fantastic restaurant. Staff, food, drink all top notch. Special mention to Hardik, Harry and Alara. Perfect they deserve pay rise or bonus and good working conditions!

Came for a friend’s birthday dinner. Not only was the food absolutely incredible, I could not fault the service. Mircxa served us and he was so attentive, friendly and catered to our every need- he really made the night for us. Thank you, I will be coming back!

Mirza provides very good service. He is very nice and caring.

Mirza was amazing and gave some great recommendations regarding food and drinks. Will highly recommended

The food is not bad. There is too much noise.

Preciosa comida a un gran precio. Servicio muy atento y gran ambiente. Lleva 30 años entrando y saliendo. ¡Sigue tan bien como siempre!

The set menu is pretty good value and the food extremely tasty (also completely recommend the deserts). The atmosphere is great and cozy too.

Such a lovely place to come and enjoy really good food at a reasonable price. Lost count how many times I’ve been here and never had bad service or food. The Pinot noir is lovely as is the Pipoul. Would highly recommend the veggie open pie and the beef bourguignon.

Very nice evening in this restaurant where we ate very well We were very well received. Thank you gentlemen

Very friendly, good food, handy location just off Oxford St. Daily special menu either fixed 2/3 courses, or a la carte at lunch, dinner and pre theatre worth taking advantage. Bread is amazing and freshly baked. Very good selection of starters and mains, catering for vegetatian and vegan too. Wine starts at £26 bottle and upwards. Sometimes pianist plays evenings. Great atmosphere and good people. Best tables are ground floor (that's upstairs), loos are downstairs.

Nice food, but not an amazing experience

Fabulous restaurant. Great food, great service and lovely vibe

Great ambience, lovely accommodating staff and the food here is always delicious. We celebrated two birthdays here and we will be coming back very soon!

The food was fantastic. I had a cauliflower steak and a latte. Mirza was an amazing and attentive server! All the best from the US!

Excellent place for a pre theatre dinner. Wonderful food, Hardik our waiter was first class, we’ll be back

Absolutely love it. Great people, lovely food and a reasonably priced set lunch. Will be back

A Wonderful Experience! The evening I spent today at Pierre Victorie was truly unforgettable. The atmosphere was warm and inviting from the beginning to the end. The stylish decoration and cosy atmosphere made me feel at home immediately. The food was excellent! Especially entrecote was fresh and delicious. The chef's care was evident in every detail. The Tiramisu we tried for dessert was a masterpiece. It was both delicious and had an eye-catching presentation. The service was also excellent; the waiters were extremely courteous and professional. All our dishes were served quickly and they made sure everything was in its place. The prices are definitely very reasonable for the quality. It is really rare to find such delicious food and excellent service at such prices. I highly recommend Pierre Victorie, it is the perfect place for a romantic dinner or a cosy get-together with friends. I look forward to my next visit!

Delicious food and Naga was a brilliant host

Good food, good service, good value…. but unbearably noisy when the piano was playing. The dining room is small, and everyone has to talk louder when the pianist plays. The result is unpleasantly loud. There was a palpable sense of relief when the pianist finished for the evening. Highly recommended at times when there is no pianist! (I write this as someone who loves piano music - but not this piano and this pianist in such a small dining room.)

Amazing service great place mirza and all his colleagues

Perfect place, definitely a must visit!! What if you asked if all of the 6 types of orders would be delicious? Yes, it would happen here. Our friend brought us and I will definitely come again. A cozy place that offers health, quality, taste and normal prices.. 26.02.25 We came again, Mr. Murat, thank you very much for the food recommendation, short rib THE BEST!!!

Harry was amazing!!!! Fantastic customer service. I have been coming to this restaurant for many years, never disappointed

Cosy seats, lovely vibe and great staff. The food was amazing too. Mirza was fantastic, tell him I said hi.

came here on sunday for dinner and had the best time ! Food was amazing and service was so friendly !!

Amazing dinner on a Sunday night, the service and food was impeccable !! So so so delicious I couldn’t recommend enough !

So if you want to eat well in London this is the ideal place even the wine is good. The atmosphere is nice.

Lovely intimate restaurant, brilliant food and great atmosphere with pianist playing.

Had a lovely meal at Pierre Victoire restaurant recently! Staff were attentive and knowledgeable. The food was reasonable priced, delicious and the atmosphere intimate and friendly. Will be visiting again!

A favourite Soho haunt, food is always excellent and it has an authentic Parisian bistro feel. Always good.

Lovely atmosphere, slightly disappointing food but great company and that’s what matters ey folks x very French x

Rude manager bad service attitude, not worth the price because of the poor service, highly recommend if you want to taste some frustration

Excellent food in a very pleasant setting. Reasonably priced for its quality.

A Great Little French Restaurant Excellent Food Well Priced Friendly Service

Dès notre arrivée, nous sommes installés à une table confortable près du bar. Service professionnel et accueillant. Nous avons choisi des plats à carte, très belle présentation et respect des cuissons pour les viande, c’était délicieux et copieux. Nous avons passé une excellente soirée. Un tout grand merci à notre serveur Mirza. Une adresse à découvrir.

Very nice food, great value ( we had the pre theatre menu) and very fast, friendly service. Very enjoyable meal.

Had steak tartare starter and bavette steak. Also tarts tartin for dessert. Good value for money and nice to have wine by carafe

I’ve personally dined here multiple times and found their food quality and safety standards to be excellent. Perhaps it’s worth reassessing the cause before leaving such a damaging review. And let’s be honest—you won’t find a better duck confit at that price in the heart of London. This place offers genuine value for money, and it’s a shame when reviews like this overlook that entirely. It seems some people are more interested in seeking compensation or stirring up drama than leaving a fair and thoughtful critique. A touch of personal responsibility and perspective would certainly go a long way! That being said, I’ve noticed a pattern in some of these reviews—people complaining about wait times when they didn’t even bother to make a reservation, others leaving bad ratings simply because the restaurant was fully booked, and now, someone claiming food poisoning from a starter that miraculously “kicked in” before they finished their main. Seriously? Fifteen to thirty minutes later? That’s not how food poisoning works, Mr Filippi. Food poisoning is certainly unpleasant, and I’m sorry you felt unwell. However, scientifically speaking, it’s highly unlikely that symptoms would appear so quickly after eating your starter. Most foodborne illnesses have an incubation period of several hours to even days, depending on the pathogen. Blaming the restaurant without considering what you ate earlier in the day—or even the previous day—might not be entirely fair! Restaurants work hard to provide great service, and baseless claims like this do nothing but harm good businesses. A bit of personal accountability wouldn’t go amiss!

For a group of old friends this is the right restaurant because it's friendly and relaxed like being with family. And did I mention the food is good and good value for a quality meal with nice house wine.

Great place friendly staff & good food.

Qué restaurante tan encantador y amable. Gran ambiente, excelente servicio, buena comida y precios razonables. Estoy sorprendido de que nunca he estado antes, pero sin duda volveré.

Lovely French restaurant… it’s a lovely spot and a nice break from the hustle and bustle of Oxford Street and Soho. The food was good, but the set menu was a fab choice. Nice to have an affordable 2 course meal in the heart of London. Would like to take my parents when they next visit London.

Having been many times to this wonderful bistro for lunch we were in London this week overnight & booked an evening meal. Fantastic is an understatement, food was wonderful, service excellent atmosphere brilliant on a Friday night. Thank you, 5 * all round

Been here 4 times, never had bad service like this time. Booked the table, waited for half hour to order, kept getting ignored, I know it was busy but people came after us already got their food. Then waiter told me set menu were sold out. We were about to leave then they told me not to leave we can order the set menu. We left anyway, being treated with no respect. Too disappointed.

I’ve been coming here with friends for years and still love the food, wine and vibe. Staff always attentive, going back Saturday before we go to the theatre 🎭

Good food, the starters were much more interesting that the mains and for a French restaurant it seems to be trying to cater to a very wide selection of cuisines.

Set menu is great! I liked the duck confit The restaurant is extremely busy during dinner time and the staff looked a bit stressed!

You can’t go wrong! I had a reservation for the New Year’s Eve dinner, so, obviously I had to pay a little more (£23 per person for 1 starter and 1 main course), but the food was amazing. One of the best Steak Tartare’s I’ve ever eaten in my life! Also, their Salmon was incredibly delicious. The waiters are very friendly and polite. I surely am coming back to this restaurant in future trips to London!

My dish was the tartar. I really enjoyed it but would have love if it was served with breads of the sort. It was served with fries 🍟. The fries were yummy. The French onion soup was delicious. I give those two dishes 4.5/5. Now the salmon and the crab bisque were disappointing. The crab bisque was way too salty (3 people tried it and ... Salty). The salmon had a very bland and even fishy taste. Then there were the steak dishes, these were pretty good. The atmosphere was superb. Candles and warmth. The servers were pretty good as well. However, I wouldn't say friendly. Making a reservation is a good thing to do. When I had told the restaurant a time that I could get in, they made sure that the table was ready for me by that time. I appreciated that. Every person is expected to order a main course as well. This is a place to have a full meal and not a snack.

I loved everything about this restaurant, ambience, food, styling, exactly how I imagined French restaurant should be. Food was superb, good portions, wine excellent and really cosy and nice. My family loved it, will return...

My recent experience at Pierre Victoire was deeply disappointing due to the unwelcoming and unprofessional service. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel unwelcome, creating an uncomfortable atmosphere. Despite having a reservation, our dining experience was marred by a series of unpleasant interactions with the waitstaff. The restaurant was overcrowded and uncomfortably warm. After finishing our main course, our waitress abruptly cleared our table, including our unfinished bread, without asking. When we pointed this out, her dismissive response and rude "calm down" remark were unacceptable. While she did return the bread, a simple apology would have been more appropriate. As we were finishing our wine and considering the dessert menu, a waiter approached us and rudely demanded to know if we were going to order anything else. Despite our polite response that we were still thinking, he sarcastically repeated our words and, once again, removed our bread. His aggressive questioning about our "problem" further escalated the situation and made us feel extremely uncomfortable. The final straw was the same waiter aggressively throwing our bill on the table. This disrespectful behavior left us feeling unwelcome and completely ruined our evening. While the food was satisfactory, the appalling service overshadowed the entire experience. I strongly advise seeking out establishments where customer service is valued and respected.

I wouldn't be put off by the negative reviews. No, it's not going to compete with the finest establishments, but I could only find fault in over- and under-salted soups and overpriced desserts for the given size and quality in some, but not all, cases. The more clever ideas for desserts pulled their punches, unfortunately. We appreciate any place serving a carafe of wine, which really suits us, personally, for the fun of sharing and appropriate quantity. Flavours and technique on the mains were well developed and more than competent. Atmosphere can be overly bright, but the lights were eventually dimmed and the candles warmed the space nicely. Seating can be tight, especially larger bodies. Otherwise, I'd be happy to return.

Food good and very reasonable. Atmosphere spoilt by staff that made us feel we were an inconvenience.
