Randall & Aubin Restaurant in City of London, Westminster

Love everything about R&A, great attentive service, great food, good wine, love the atmosphere, can’t wait for the next visit. Wish you would open a restaurant here in Leigh on Sea. 🙏🏻 Til next time 👌🏼

Used to be a regular, but not for a few years. Still right up there, excellent menu and delicious fish. Very friendly service. Usual buzzy atmosphere. Certainly going back soon

Great restaurant, food is amazing. Half lobster is more of a baby half compared to what you get on the continent. Service is amazing. I'll go again.

Fabulous food for all three of us, service second to none. Highly recommend.

Incredible food, excellent service. Highly recommend

Hard to find a better, more authentic fish restaurant in London

Very good service food was exceptional, great atmosphere well worth a visit

Had some really good food here. The seafood tower was worth it to try all the seafood. Everything was fresh and tasty. However the main highlight was the Ravioli special of the day and the rock shrimp tempura! These two dishes were really good and unique. Perfect date spot for some really good seafood but the restaurant itself is very loud so I wouldn’t say it’s a spot to meet someone new. Our waiter was also very nice and attentive. I would recommend this place for the fresh sea food

Never disappoints, great food, great service and most importantly great selection of wine. pouilly fume being my goto with the great fish dish. Will be back in the very near future.

New favourite restaurant in London. The food, ambience and service was perfect. Thank you and can’t wait to come back!

Great relaxed and informal atmosphere but with the buzz of Soho! Fantastic food and service

Used to be nice, but now has banging dance music, rushed food, a rude concierge and staff that are too busy to serve in a reasonable time...understaffed and overcharged.

AMAZING FOOD BEST IN LONDON, might be pricey but is worth it!!

The food was very tasty, the dishes are appetizing, the seasoning is subtle, you can feel the freshness of the food. It is highly recommended

Was there in October 2021 and it was fantastic. When we arrived I thought oh no, shared bench tables. Shouldn’t have worried as it was great. Every course was really good as was the service. For my main course I took the crab, which I had ordered the dressed one as going non dressed was a lot of work! Great atmosphere as well, we went at a lunch time and lucky we booked as the place was packed, always a good sign.

Loved, loved, loved it here. First visit but it won't be my last. Food was delicious and service impeccable. Don't miss out!

Firstly, our server was really lovely with a huge smile. He certainly served our table beautifully. I’d not seen him before and he’s a real asset. I asked which were the biggest oysters. He said Galway's, certainly. Well they were salty, briny and lovely but very small. My daughter’s ceviche, the large not the small size wasn’t! It was delicious she said but small. My rock prawn tempura didn’t benefit from the crushed peanuts and again, whilst the portion was fine the prawns were almost non existent. That is really being deceptive, tiny prawns, or bits of, lots of unseasoned tempura batter. The pickled cucumber was a nice touch though.

I like this place but be warned the seating/ covers are very tight

Very fresh sea food, for our taste little bit too salty. Seats are all bar chairs around bar tables. Service was very friendly.

Best Fish & Chips ever. Nice wine selection. Range of choices for those not wanting fried food. Great balance of upscale quality with casual setting. Highly recomended..

This was the absolute most perfect place to celebrate our 25 years in business together . The food , as always , was gorgeous and our waitress Suzu was fabulous!! . What a great place , could not recommend more highly ! Thank you

Food delicious, staff delightful and a great be friendly atmosphere.

The Devon crab we had as an Hors-d’oevre was fresh well balanced and delicious. The prawns were sweet and juicy. The fish soup was also very good with generous amounts of mussels and fish. Garlic butter lobster was great too and beautifully presented, skate wing was perfectly cooked but just wasn’t for me. Great friendly service and definitely will return next time we are in London.

We had a fantastic dinner here, food was absolutely delicious!

Fabulous good, staff and the lychee martini are delicious

Great fish place. Music too loud for me but everyone else seemed to be happy...

Wonderful food, cocktails, wine plus friendly/knowledgeable/attentive service and a great, relaxed atmosphere. The hours flew by. Thanks to the whole team! 🤗

Always a great atmosphere, great service and the food!! The specials were exactly that special! This is a restaurant that has the buzz for early or late lunch pre-show dinner, a special occasion. Casual or glitzy it has it all, never feel out of place

One of the absolute best places in London!!! Flawless!!! Terrific!!! Delicious food!!!! Perfect service!!!!

Never let me down, always 1st class.. love this place. The music, the informality and the vibe are great, but the food is the best bit. Truly brilliant place in the heart of Soho

The oysters were just absolutely amazing, service was abit slow for a Monday evening but the food was great, and the Lychee Martini was to die for.

Love this place. Food and service was excellent, will definitely see you again. Thank you..!!

"Reviewing my unforgettable dining experience. From succulent lobster to fresh oysters and exquisite wine pairings, every aspect was a culinary triumph. Already planning my next visit to indulge in more of their delightful offerings."

Great fish restaurant. Service is speedy, food is good and specials of the day add interest to menu. Unfortunately my friend's special fish main lacked some of the promised ingredients so only 4 stars. Wine list is interesting and reasonably priced

Yet another excellent meal. Whatever we choose from the menu, it never fails to tick all the boxes. Beautifully presented and perfectly cooked, today was no exception. The staff always offer excellent service and knowledgeable advice when requested. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Well done to all concerned, we look forward to returning very soon.

Staff very welcoming and attentive, great ambience and music was not too loud. Considerate of intolerances and allergies. Food was of good quality!

Amazing service and fantastic food. What a great way to spend an evening with friends. The food was absolutely delicious. No complaints at all.

First time dining there, but went with some regulars, and it did not disappoint! Amazing food. Great service and the ambience (apart from one group) was lovely! Will be coming back regularly to try out some more dishes on the wonderful menu.

Amazing service and fantastic food. What a great way to spend an evening with friends. No complaints at all

A great spot for lunch - superb food, great wine and wonderful service!

Recommended by a friend, this cute little restaurant did not disappoint. The food was excellent, the staff friendly and the great atmosphere made for a really lovely evening.

Enjoyed the food, although a little expensive for the terrible seating most people are perched along little wall tables. If the Seated was great 5 stars.

Delicious!!!! Food was fresh and perfectly seasoned. Catalina our server was very attentive and very pleasant. Portions were just right. It was me, my mom, and my sister We had: Classic Moules Marinières Tuna & Hamachi Sashimi Spaghetti Alle Vongole Pan Fried Skate Wing Roast Hake Buttered Grean Beans English Morello Cherry & Almond Bakewell Tart Sticky toffee pudding Flambée Crème Brûlée Everything was just sooo good!!!!

This was such a cool place. Tge food and drinks were great

Amazing, so good that I booked a table within the week to take my father, who is a seafood lunatic. The window seats are amazing for people watching. The food is insane, I went small plates to try as much as possible, but the lobster bisque was the stand out. The wines are expertly paired and very tasty.

Quality and fresh fish. Staff were knowledgeable and the flavours were immense.

My favourite spot for oysters and champagne! Delicious menu, lovely service and a romantic yet lively atmosphere.

Food good but staff treated me with no attention and respect. Disappointed

We found this restaurant by chance looking for somewhere for lunch. We were not disappointed. The waiter was brilliant giving us advice on the dishes recommending some and dissuading us from others with good reason for us. The food was excellent so fresh and clean. We were lucky to be seated as we had not booked and were told we would have to be finished by a certain time but we weren't hurried through our meal and, in fact, managed to squeeze in a cherry bakewell tart between us. The food isn't cheap but the quality is definitely worth paying for. My one comment to the detriment would be the fact that we were perched at a long bench type table for eight people which made private conversation impossible.

Absolutely delicious food. Amazing champagne. Wanted to order everything off the menu! Friendly staff. Had a great seat looking out onto the street. Will come back.

Great service, great cookery, great ambience. Really good value for money, highly recommended

Absolutely outstanding! Fabulous food and ambiance , great wine selection, wonderful hosts. Good value given the quality of the food and location. Could not have asked for more and will definitely return.

Lovely experience, brought my mum here for Mother’s Day and she absolutely loved the food. Waiters were really attentive and helpful!

4 of us had a fantastic lunch. Everything was perfect especially the Lindisfarne Oysters. Great service and a buzzy atmosphere. We will be back.

Delicious food and fantastic atmosphere. Waitress was lovely.

great restaurant, lovely staff, very buzzy atmosphere and fabulous fish - what's not to like

Excellent late lunch with friends on 8 March 2024. A menu that caters for all tastes. Friendly & professional service. Will return. Thank you

Wonderful friendly and efficient service

Great food, great service, wonderful atmosphere. Excellent value, would highly recommend

Good atmosphere, great service and food/drinks. Put it on your list when in London.

The marble counter style dinning adds to the informal ambience, but does get a bit cramped. However, our window seats enabled us to watch the eclectic mix of people go by, that is Soho. A crisp dry martini and house champagne perfectly complimented the large plate of oysters on ice, and pouilly-fumé with the roast skate and Scottish cod , was a delight, as was the service. From a short list of 3 x fish restaurants, we certainly made the right choice - a great birthday celebration.

Excellent fish restaurant, great food, brilliant service, wonderful atmosphere, full of character. Excellent value for money. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely fantastic restaurant, fabulous ambience, superb friendly and extremely capable and attentive staff, food impeccable, one of the best tuna steaks I’ve ever eaten. We will definitely be back.

Staff were very friendly and efficient. Food great. Will definitely be back soon.

Good spot in the middle of busy Soho. Food was decent, disco balls give it a fun, lighthearted vibe, and service was good. The place is incredibly small for the number of seats crumbled in though and can get very loud even on week days. I would say it is fun for a boozy dinner with a few people, but slightly stressful for me to have to shout to be heard by my date. Price is on the high range for the quality of the food, I thought - but then again, it is Soho.

Great seafood restaurant in the heart of Soho; great atmosphere and service. Perfect for a romantic dinner or a catch up with friends. The food is always outstanding. A true London gem.

We were recently in London for a few nights celebrating my partner's birthday and I wanted to take him to a nice seafood restaurant (his favourite) for his birthday dinner. After much research, I booked a table at Randall & Aubin. Just a short walk from Piccadilly Circus tube station and surrounded by a variety of pubs, bars and clubs should you want to continue the night after eating here, the location was great. The dining area is rather small and the tables are high with bar stool type chairs, there's several large tables seating 8-10 people, a long table facing out of the window and then another long table running across the back walls so seating options are more or less sharing a large table with others are sitting facing the wall. We were seated at the end of the table running along the walls where the table top is rounded off meaning we were able to at least sit facing each other rather than the wall. However this did mean my partner was left sitting with his chair basically touching the chair of the person sat behind him and I was sat with my chair in the fairly narrow path leading into the toilets and kitchen. With my long winter coat hung on the back of my chair (there is nowhere else to hang them in here) I spent most of my meal with people walking past and knocking my coat off, someone else coming along and picking it up, randomly feeling hands on my back as someone else was then adjusting my coat to make sure it wasn't knocked off etc. This did start to become a little annoying and the chairs really weren't the most comfortable for enjoying a meal - we both mentioned our bums were starting to feel quite numb by the end of our meal. The atmosphere, and this will either be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the person, is more like a bar than a restaurant. Because of the small setting it's very noisy, there's music playing and a big disco ball hanging from the ceiling. It's a very lively place and perhaps not what you would be expecting. We almost had to shout our orders at our waitress due to the volume from the music and other diners. Nevertheless, we were given a friendly greeting when we arrived, quickly shown to our table and were served by a friendly waitress who seemed to genuinely care about our experience dining here. Upon learning it was my partner's birthday, she even bought dessert out with a lit candle in it. She was polite, friendly, quick, efficient and just a pleasure to be served by and made the added 12.5% service charge on top of an already fairly pricey meal more palatable. We definitely couldn't complain about the service we received here. We started with oysters, not my thing so I didn't have any but my partner said they were delicious. We then moved onto starters, I went for the French onion soup which was rich, flavoursome and thoroughly enjoyed whilst my partner had the tempura shrimp which were also very nice. For mains my partner had the bouillabaisse which again, went down a real treat whilst I had the battered haddock and chips. My fish was cooked perfectly, flaky and flavoursome, chips were nice and the pea puree was gorgeous if a little lacking in quantity. I did think the batter on the fish was a little too thick though and fairly bland and oily, but overall, a nice main. We ended up sharing a desert of cherry and almond bakewell tart with ice cream which was the real star of the show. The tart was gorgeous, lots of flavour and not too sweet and sickly. The ice cream was also really nice, high quality ice cream. We had a couple of cocktails each which were also enjoyed and the total bill came to around £160 including service charge. Not the cheapest meal but definitely not the most expensive for similar cuisine in the area. All in all, the setting wasn't the most comfortable or desirable for a relatively expensive meal but the food and service more than made up for this and it wouldn't put us off going again. I would recommend it if you're in the area and after some good seafood.

Fantastic food, lovely service, a really great experience.

Great restaurant with a buzzy atmosphere and the freshest seafood. Good selection of dishes and not over priced. Good selection of wine and lovely service.

Wonderful seafood experience with the best service.

Everything is 10 out of 10, our favourite restaurant. We will be back soon.

Perhaps the best Shell Fish Emporium in London, well worth a visit, the Cornish Crab is amazing and the Oyster selection delicious...... Been here a few times and god willing many times more

This is the best place for seafood in Soho, we tried another one a couple of month ago and it's literally round the corner, it dosen't come close to Randall & Audin It's small but I like it, food fab, drinks great and staff great

A solid restaurant to go to at anytime. Food, Service and atmosphere are always excellent. Highly recommended.

We had a great time! The service was friendly and made us laugh. The food was fantastic and came very fast, great choice of wine too. If I had to find a fault, for me the music was a little loud but I have hearing issues so it's really nitpicking! Fully recommend!

Very intimate restaurant with so many dishes to choose from it was difficult to decide - a good reason to come back! I had the scallops to start and they were amazing, lobster and fries with rocket salad for main and a happy ending to...

One of my favorite restaurants in London... totally unique in it's vibe. Great oysters

Intimate restaurant sea food was amazing scallops and fresh lobster; our new go to restaurant in town x

Wonderful Friday night at R&A ! Amazing staff, the Italian waiter was absolutely charming & professional! Same with our other Hungarian lady waiter. The vibe is really unique with an amazing house music playlist which gives a festive atmosphere really cool for a weekend dinner ! Food was delicious: oysters, lobster, vegetables salads & caviar 🤩 We are in love with the place and will come back for sure 🫶

Our go to restaurant in London. Never disappoints. The food is top quality. The service friendly and the atmosphere is buzzing.

The ambiance of the room was very good. The dynamics of the tables are very original: marble counters where groups of people sat to eat (our section looked towards the street, very beautiful). Food of great quality, flavor and textures. The service from the waitress...

Excellent seafood restaurant, great location and very friendly staff. Prices are also reasonable for its location and quality.

Love this little hidden gem of a seafood restaurant in SoHo. Very busy and intimate. The service is excellent and they even recognized us from a previous visit. The food is great and the wine selection is a perfect match with the food. Need to...

Friendly welcome on arrival, Popped in for a light lunch, Great atmosphere as all ways. A menu to suit all tastes but seafood is the real thing to choose. Not a cheap lunch, but worth every penny. I have never gone away from here feeling...

Absolutely our favourite restaurant when we visit London. Fabulous setting, epic service and superb food. …. And not expensive

superb food and service, the line caught tuna, calamari and prawn cocktail were all amazing, as was our server neale (:

Very nice evening in Randall and Aubin. Came with friends, service excellent, food top notch and price was good value. A regular go to that never disappointes,

美味しいシーフードが食べられるお店♪フィッシュ&チップスを切らしていて？なかったのは残念でしたが、カラマリがとても美味しかったので満足です。他のメニューも食べてみたいのが色々あったのでまた機会があれば訪れたいです。

One of my favourite locations in London. A “GO TO” spot which I have always found to be excellent (food, service and value) and was not disappointed on this occasion.

Fresh, delicious seafood. Prawns were sweet, sour cream with cavier was hearty, and tuna slices with avacardo dressing was extremely tasty and memorable. Own brand champagne was crisp and refreshing, cocktails were great and team are extremely attentive and friendly.

Second visit for dinner here and enjoyed it all - the food , service and ambiance were great. Really good menu particularly for fish lovers. We had tasty tempura shrimp & then crispy cod and the monkfish special. Can’t find fault with anything. We’ll definite...

Popped in as a random find. Lovely atmosphere and great looking food (I just had oysters and a small glass of wine)

We have visited this restaurant I think 5 times now and haven’t done a review before…… literally the best food service and ambience in London! The food is outstanding and the staff 5 stars! Yesterday I was speaking to our waitress and huge apologies didn’t...

Had walked passed Randall and Aubin numerous times and always wanted to try it. Luckily they could fit me in. Great classic fish menu; had fish soup, right amount of spice and delicious roasted octopus salad. Lovely service from young waiter, only his second day...

This is a great place to go for a good variety of quality seafood, at a fairly reasonable price. It has a lovely, intimate and cosy atmosphere (all bar seating) and the service was friendly and attentive. Both of the main fish dishes we got (skate and tuna) were delicious.

Haven't been here for ages. A Top, Top restaurant 👍😋
