Pierre Victoire in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Disappointing food - starter chicken had over half a dozen pieces of gristle. No reaction when I expressed my disappointment- not an offer of replacement or removal of charge. Steak I ordered was not available and alternative was bland and unpalatable. Add to that a time limit on the table and mediocre wine, definitely not worth £70 for one!

Good restaurant with great service and quite reasonable price Good dishes. Tartare was just okay.

Lovely service, food and atmosphere. I would come back again!

Brilliant food and service, our starters came about 5 or 10 minutes after we ordered them. The mussels were delicious, as well as the confit duck and seabass fillets. The location is great near Leicester Square, Covent Garden and The British Museum. The food was amazing, the service was outstanding and the waiters were very kind, smiley and attentive, always checking if our needs were catered to (such as refilling our water, checking our food was good and asking about anything else we need like new drinks etc.) I would 100% go back and I would recommend to people who wanted a great yet quaint French restaurant.

We were here for lunch, and the 2-course lunch was less than 20 pounds with gourmet cooking food. Ordered calamari and duck confit, both were delicious. The gnocchi was also amazing. One of our favorite meals while visiting London.

Other than the octopus being a little cold and the banoffee pie needing a bit more biscuit in the base, the service was warm and friendly and the steak great. I could have whinged about the octopus, but it wasn't THAT bad, so I got on with enjoying the company and the food

Incredible food! One of the best french restaurants in London!

After just experiencing awful service at another restaurant and walking out. My husband and I, we found this beautiful hidden little GEM!!! we were greeted so warmly and explaining we don't have o reservation they still welcomed us and found us a table. Our drinks were bought so quickly and we were also given fresh bread and butter. The menu was absolutely gorgeous and we tried to selection ranging from oysters, steak tartar, fish and the ribeye - throughout the dinner the staff were absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was warm buzzing and inviting, my husband and I had such a brilliant time here we could not rage enough about this place and we will definitely be back the service and the food both were just incredible. Thank you for turning our bad evening around and giving us such a wonderful 3rd wedding anniversary dinner. Mourad was a delight.

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

Passing by this little restaurant outside Tottenham Court Road tube, as you head into the heart of Soho, could be a mistake, as this is a pure Gem! On a very wet weekend in London, we stopped here for an impromptu lunch & to dodge the rain, & what a lovely find it was! Staff are accommodating, friendly & service is swift! Possibly a little too swift, but understandable based on the size of restaurant & the need to turn covers quickly. The food is good, very good & has a good French vibe, although in my view could be more authentic. However the lunchtime offer, Steak & Chips with a decent Peppercorn sauce. Cooked well, & to each of our parties preference, which was great to see. Reasonably priced with a glass of House wine or a soft drink at £19.90. As it was lunch, I opted for the French Onion soup-delicious! Lovely sweet, caramelised onions, with gooey melted French cheese on French bread, in a super base, which had a good flavour, I did feel it lacked the depth of flavour compared to some French Onion Soups I have eaten, but nevertheless, it was decent. Deserts were equally good, & the Tarte Tatin was excellent! However, the £9.50 price point was a tad toppy, but typically London & Soho! Overall, a great spot, not to be passed by and replaced by one of the many, mediocre & lesser restaurant options the deeper you enter into SOHO.

Absolutely beautiful evening and lovely service. Had a great time!

Love this boutique French restaurant. It’s delicious, casual and enjoyable. Staffs are friendly and hospital. Most important thing is, the prices are very beautiful 😎

Delicious French restaurant with good service Onion soup is very authentic But the confit duck is a bit tough

Probably the fastest most efficient service I have ever experienced. Yet I did not feel I was being rushed. Staff are polite and friendly. Good choice of food. Food was well prepared and presented and delicious. Will definitely be going there again

Fabulous little French bistro ... Last here in 2005, and in 2024 still has great food and character. Highly recommend.

Popped in for an early pre club dinner. Was not disappointed. Good food, friendly service and decent prices.

One of the better French bistro, liked the menu, ambience and friendly service and had good location. Would recommend

Can't believe I've been coming to this place for over 20 years, in it's various guises. And the food remains true to the french bistro style. The service was quick and polite, quite unlike real french waiters!

Perfect place for dating and friends birthday. Nice dishes and desserts! Will recommend the beef tartare , mussels with green sauce, pistachios cheese cake

We visited this French restaurant a month ago, with my two friends for a quick set lunch.Food is OK, as you won't expect too much from 20ish set lunch deal.

Food was excellent, and the service was outstanding. A little small but it added to the atmosphere! Very reasonable price, would highly recommend.

So the past 30 years my wife & I have been dining in Pierre Victoire restaurants around the country & we were so sad to see the one close down in our local town in Hampshire. So finding this little gem in Soho London we were looking forward to the visit. Met some friends for Lunch & we opted for the two-course menu as there were plenty of choice. First impressions of stepping through the front door the layout looked great & the staff were very warming . Food was amazing & with a perfect ambience & good company made the whole experience of dining at Pierre Victoire a most pleasant one. It will now be our default restaurant to eat at when we're in London town again. Thanks for your service

Great food. OK welcome and service. Given the location the tables are very close to each. At this price and location, great place for dinner.

We only had drinks and dessert but will absolutely be coming back to this wonderful, welcoming restaurant. The cappuccinos I had were extraordinary (although not large) and definitely the tastiest I've had so far, which is saying a lot! Our foursome each had different desserts and, though a bit pricey, they were likely the best examples of each kind that we had all had. My Mousse au Chocolate was probably more close to average than Scott's Banoffee Pie and Will's Tiramisu, both of which were absolutely spectacular and possibly the best of their kind we have had. Amazing, friendly, welcoming, and generous atmosphere - and the toilets were super clean and extremely well turned out!

Great meal out. Really happy with the quality of the food. A little bit special which is what I was hoping for.

The food was eatable, though they managed to ruin a steak tartare with a sweet sauce. Beef Bourgogne was ok, not the best I had. All the experience was mediocre and expensive. Don't feel bad if you pass.

This venue was slightly off the hustle and bustle of Soho but a great find. Upon entry you get the Parisienne vibe with the layout, music and table set up. The menu offers reasonable portions and options and the food is flavoursome and well presented. So glad we managed to get a booking here. Would definitely recommend and return!

Had dinner here yesterday. I was expecting a much better experience to be honest. It was very noisy and the tables are squashed together not giving you much space between the next table. The food was very average nothing great. I won't be coming back here.

I’m a major foodie and this place does not disappoint! Food is like Michelin quality and for the 2 course price of 17.90 for lunch and 20.90 for dinner it’s is incredible.

Everything is perfect, will visit again

A smaller French restaurant that we liked very much. Great service, great food. I have nothing to complain about. I highly recommend. We had 3 different meals and we all really enjoyed it! There's nothing wrong with it.

Absolutely awesome food and great service. Excellent value. A real hidden gem if you are in Central London.

This was our first visit here after many trips to London. Great service and the food was amazing, ribeye steak cooked perfect medium rare, my son loved his brevett steak too. We would definitely recommend a visit to this restaurant 🙂

We had such a lovely time at Pierre Victoire. The staff were attentive but also let us take our time, the food was delicious and a really fun atmosphere.

Brilliant ,reliable, reasonable restaurant. We always have a delicious meal, with great service and reasonable wines. Well located in Soho. Good if you are shopping in Oxford Street or going to the theatre in the West End.

Food was decent (7/10) but a bit pricy. I paid £45 for a starter and a main (not steak) with no drinks! I like the atmosphere, good dating vibe and also a good place to catch up with friends service was fast and thoughtful.

All I can say is amazing me and boyfriend come here regularly and that is purely because it's such amazing food. I love cooking myself and when you go to restaurant that is so fantastic where food the ambience is just perfect. Really feel like you are in France. Today had steak tartare beautiful. Staff are so welcoming which just adds to amazing experience. My favourite restaurant in London

Tried the filleted sea bass meal , dauphinios potatoes . It was first class ! Setvice was first class as was the wine .

Pierre Victoire is always good. Buzzy atmosphere - do not expect a romantic dinner, it's noisy and vibrant. Food is good, house wines excellent. Quite French atmosphere and reasonably priced. Book. They are often busy.

I’ve been contemplating writing this review for quite some time now. We’ve been going to this restaurant for some years now. The food has always been great. The prices went in the past couple of years as in all places. Could be a bit better but it’s okay. The deals they have for lunch and dinner are worth visiting for sure! The only negative review I have and it is a serious one is their service! Some of the people there and one waiter in particular, are so unfriendly and they have little idea of what customer service is. I find it difficult sometimes to keep myself calm and it is the only reason I’m seriously considering finding another restaurant in the area. If they read this, I hope they can do something about it.

It was ok. A lot of pastry. Could do with more variety. Nice though. Staff friendly

Packed so very popular food very nice

I've been eating in this restaurant for about 15 years and it is always brilliant. Well worth a visit.

Fab little piece of France in central London. Food delicious and atmosphere lovely.

It was a great restaurant the staff was very helpful and the food was great. I recomend the scalops which was a little smal but very good.

I went regularly to that place once a month for more than 20 years. I was meeting a friend, she died 3 years ago. And I did not go then. My daughter took me there and the atmosphere was still the same. I love it.

I've been coming here for over a decade and it's one of my favourite places in London. Delicious, unpretentious, classy food with friendly staff

Food was great and dessert aswell very good french food and seemed popular alot of people who liked it aswell

We were there for lunch set menu. 👍

Great food, really good menu. Its relatively jammed packed in but thats no issues for me. A very enjoyable night out

A very busy and bustling local eatery serving great food at great prices. Extensive selection of dishes and drinks with quick efficient service in a lively atmosphere. Been several times and will again - an essential eatery in SoHo where it's so easy to be ripped off, not here tho - superb value for money. Cannot fault the place

The food is fine, but overpriced for what it is. You can get a much better french meal elsewhere in the city for the same price

They were understaffed for how busy they were. The waiter forgot bits and pieces of our order which was understandable as there were only two ppl on the floor and they had a full house. Also very expensive for a bistro. A starter and another starter with fries more + a bottle of house wine £75.

Anything but a French restaurant…. The chef has probably never eaten a true boeuf bourguignon in his entire life…. Room downstairs next to the toilets and the open kitchen is VERY noisy…Special 2 courses dinner is before 18:00 😣…not recommended

The food was very good but the place was simply too crowded. Seven people seated at a table for 6 next to us meant I bumped elbows with another diner on my right. On my left I kept getting bumped by the wait staff. It was really inappropriate. I won't go back.

Pretty good, a little rushed and bit cramped but the food is good at a reasonable price.

The food was amazing! I had the steak frites, and the cheesecake for dessert- perfection!

Fabulous little bistro .. staff couldn’t do enough to make sure we were enjoying our meal. We were staying nearby for a weekend in London and there are so many places to eat to choose from… so glad we chose this one. Hubby had the steak frites which he said was far better cooked than in some well known steak restaurants… I had the beouf bourguignon which was full of big, tender chunks of beef and was delicious. Wish we had such a fab little bistro near us at home. Wouldn’t hesitate to eat there again if we’re ever back in the area.

We came here on Mother’s Day. It is recommended to book a table in advance. It got really busy on a Sunday. There are two floors of the place. It was extremely crowded, and we were placed next to stair, and I accidentally hit my head on it. I serious got concerned with their health and safety issues. After asking a few times, we were finally changed to another table. The lunch deal was really good. We aded extra money to have the steak. The meat was beautifully done per our request. I really enjoyed the chicken, liver pate and the calamari as appetiser. The house wine was really good as well, so I really recommended this place for what you get in this location. We spent £85 for two people and left with a happy stomach.

Small, cute restaurant with a lovely atmosphere and friendly staff.

Amazing food and service - great value. Thank you

The food was absolutely delicious!! I had the steak and frites and it was cooked just right.

Food was excellent and generous portions. Staff friendly. Very busy with pre theatre crowd and tables very close together so not an intimate experience. Nonetheless recommended (use Dean Street exit from Tottenham Court Road tube station).

Arrived without a booking almost at closing time on a weekday. The friendly staff gave us a table and served us a delicious starter and main meal. The food was great and service excellent.

Consistently good food! Some traditional French dishes but other Asian inspired too. Excellent value. At time of writing a 2 course lunch is £17.90

Delicious French food, OK prices.

Came here twice now with my partner and we really enjoyed the food. Lovely onion soup and the steak/venison we had was very nicely cooked.

As always great meal service and experience and very busy

Great restaurant, slightly crowded and relatively small space, but food is always great. Good value for price paid. Une valeur sure!

Lovely staff Delicious food Toilets nice but dusty … !

Excellent choice of dishes and attentive service, we will be booking again shortly

Very cosy vibe, good food… I personally think the duck is tiny bit dry but overall it is tasty. Crème Brûlée is raspberry flavoured which is a little too sweet for me but my friend loved it! Boeuf bourginion is very good!!! Green salad with vinaigrette tastes great. Will try wine next time.

It's not the first time we've come here. We already have our favorite dishes. Very favorable rates for lunch course and dinner. Delicious house wine, panna cotta, pistachio dessert and creme caramel. From the food, I recommend the confit duck leg, toast with liver, and deep-fried calamari. We'll be back again.

The only criticism I have is there are to many tables, diners are almost sitting on top of each other apart from that I enjoy the food but I do not go there as much as I would like because of this.

So much fun. Lively. Service was grand, food was delicious.

The food was ok. We felt a bit rushed but it was a Saturday early evening so understandable. We were sat downstairs which is quite a small space so the noise level was high and I found it difficult to hear my friends on the other side of the table. We decided to leave and have dessert elsewhere.

The dishes were passable. Grilled Camembert: Not too much taste Chicken stuffed with foie gras: Not tender enough and therefore heavy to eat. The potato that came with it was overcooked on the outside and then crumbly when cut (it looked reheated) Apple/blackberry/vanilla ice cream crumble: The blackberries were hot underneath VS the ice cream.. Not very pleasant The waiters/waitresses were very professional and the atmosphere of the restaurant is nice. We had a good time but it’s not a “French” restaurant that I would recommend.

As usual very good food! We had the halibut and it was delicious!

I didn't have a great experience, i was there to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday, the place was so busy and very loud, the desert was served without a candle even when i specified its a birthday. We felt rushed to leave and was asked how long are we staying. I wouldn't recommend

Amazing steak! Great entrees. Would highly recommend!

Good service and good value set menu. I would recommend.

my first visit- definitely not my last. Outstanding food and impeccable service.

As always: impeccable. As close to a proper bistro/brasserie as you'll get in London without getting a second mortgage. And forget Zedel as its food is mediocre and therefore overpriced.

The food and staff (service) were wonderful, saying that, I hate restaurants where they pack people on tiny little tables too close to one another. I was invited there, but I would never go there myself.. tables were too close to one another, staff could hardly pass between them, every time someone passed, or someone needed to go toilet all of us had to adjust our chairs, the tables were extremely old, with large legs, you can't even sit in there properly without hitting your knees into something or someone else's knees, hardly any place to hang coats, u hear chairs squeaking the whole time you're there, they use very large plates but very small tables, our order hardly fitted on the table, with our main plates half hanging out leaving us paranoid they might fall any minute. I basically had to step out several times in order to breath some fresh air...my impression, it was like being in a packed underground tube carriage. Do not go there if you are a large person, do not go there with kids, do not go there if you're disabled on wheelchair, or need space for you crutches, space is limited and you won't be comfortable, nowhere to stretch your legs, ppl will bump into the back of your chair the whole time.. there is good food and wonderful staff in many places in london with comfortable seating and airy environments, you get out of them feeling rather relaxed, not like coming out of a jampacked train! I won't be going there again.

Great atmosphere with attentive staff and fab' food/wine.

The restaurant is conveniently located close to Tottenham Court Road tube station. On a Wednesday lunch time the restaurant's ground floor tables were all taken and even the downstairs room was full. There was a pleasant buzz of conversation and a really nice unpretentious brasserie ambience, but beware - the tables are quite close together so not the best place for a confidential conversation. My group of five dine here 3 or 4 times a year and have never been disappointed. The lunchtime Prix Fixe menu is excellent value. There were approving comments about all the dishes - boeuf bourguignon, duck salad and the sea bass in particular. There was also a very nice trate tatin for dessert.

Thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal in this small but atmospheric restaurant. Would definitely recommend for a pre-theatre option. Reasonably priced too.

This was an incredible restaurant. The food was excellent, even better than places that boast gourmet menus, and the prices were very reasonable. The staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating. The atmosphere was absolutely lovely, with candle-lit tables and good music. My entire family had a great time and I’ll definitely come again! It’s a hidden gem.

Great little restaurant in soho.

This place literally takes you on a journey to france. The food and wine just superb and great value. Can't wait to return

Excellent food, service and vibe. We had a lovely evening as a group of six.

Au top très bon restaurant très bon plats et très bon accueil

Disappointed the 2 course dinner menu finishes at 6pm. That said the Chicken livers and the halibut were amazing.

Can't fault our lunch for 4 on Saturday. We chose from the Set Menu which was great value. The food was delicious and service was with a smile. Highly recommend,

Excellent food in a great location. The pre theatre menu is great value.

During lunch time Monday to Wednesday a very quiet value for money lunchtime experience. For a Saturday night pre Theatre dinner however it was a totally different experience. Very crowded, too noisy, cramped atmosphere, and some of the set menu dishes were not available. However the A La Carte food was absolutely delicious, service was great, a bit more pricey than we were looking for, but would definitely return on another day/evening for a meal. Thank you

Very noisy with small cramped tables. Food tasted nice but small portions for us. Went home hungry hence did not feel good value.

Steak frites was top! Really enjoyed the meal despite it being noisy and expensive - it is in central London! I would go back.

Very good, well cooked French food that’s great value for money in a cosy setting.
