The best restaurants serving French food in West End City of London, Westminster London

Elegimos este restaurante porque era inferior a 1/2 cuadra de nuestro hotel y críticas decentes de diversas fuentes. Éramos los únicos clientes cuando llegamos, lo que fue perfecto, ya que teníamos un impredecible 2 años con nosotros. todos nos pedimos desayuno y dos zumos añadidos. La resaca tortilla era delicioso y mi marido disfrutó mucho sus huevos benedictinos. También disfrutamos tanto los zumos. Es un lugar muy pequeño con solo una persona corriendo, así que el servicio era un poco lento, pero sin duda volveremos. hubiéramos deseado desayunamos allí en las mañanas de nuestra estancia en vez de ir a Lantanas la primera mañana

Haven’t been here since few months. Enjoying my hot cafe latte- semi skimmed milk - on this busy Saturday afternoon. Service is excellent as usual Thank you Mohamed Highly recommended

Lovely food. Lovely service. Lovely atmosphere. Always a pleasure coming here and the Good Food Guide dinner was equally as excellent . Thank you.

Lamento oír que este restaurante ha cerrado desde entonces. Tuvimos una velada fabulosa allí con los socios de negocios, y era comida verdaderamente deliciosa, y el servicio más atento. La atención al detalle, la combinación de sabores, el calendario de los cursos y la calidad general fueron excepcionales.

Just finishing another brilliant fortnight AGAIN in our second home been coming back for 20 years so no more to be said from the bottom to the top staff are brilliant no one is better than anyone else so relaxed,clean and friendly so give it a go

I wanted a special birthday dinner for my 60th so I booked a table on line for Saturday 15th March - which was as close to my birthday was we could get (they don't open on Sundays). I was subsequently telephoned by their receptionist to discuss dietary requirements. It's so good that the tasting menu can be adapted as I don't eat meat and my partner is allergic to nuts. I explained it would be my birthday on Sunday 16th. We arrived at 7pm and there were a couple of other tables already occupied. The seating is well spaced and comfortable with a relaxed atmosphere. We had champagne cocktails to start and the tasting menu was explained to us along with the substitutions that we'd have due to our dietary requirements. We discussed the wine selection with the sommelier who was very helpful and charming. My partner chose a wine pairing and I had wine by the glass (with tastes of my partner's wines to "help him out"!) There were some exquisite amuses bouche to start - wonderful flavours and stunning presentation. We both had the 5 course tasting menu. Each course was beautifully presented and the wine pairing explained. My favourite was the scallop (and the Cornish crab was excellent too). My partner even enjoyed the pigeon (which he would not normally choose). All the staff were attentive and efficient and very well rehearsed in presenting and explaining the food and wine. The loos are (temporarily) quite a distance away and on a lower floor. Helpfully I was guided most of the way by a member of staff - and luckily I was able to find my way back (I had had a couple of drinks at this point!) They remembered it was my birthday (or maybe it was me looking at my watch and remarking "4 hours to go until my 60th" etc) ! One of the staff took a polaroid picture of us and we were presented with it in a commemorative folder before we left. They also served me with a lovely little chocolate cake with a candle that was absolutely delicious. A very special surprise was being asked if we would like a tour of the kitchens and meet the chefs. We were taken downstairs and met the head chef and the team who were still working hard in the three kitchens and serving the chef's table guests with a huge birthday cake. What an insight and a privilege. When it came time to leave we were given boxed cakes to take away (they made delicious breakfast treats the following day!) Dinner here is not cheap - by any stretch of the imagination - but the overall experience was amazing and definitely worth it for a special treat.

Me encanta la comida aquí y siempre ha sido nuestro ir al restaurante mientras estaba en Londres. Pero realmente me he cansado de que me apresuren. Fuimos anoche y nos sentimos presionados inmediatamente para empezar a pedir comida incluso antes de tomar nuestras bebidas. Pedimos entrantes casi inmediatamente, pero luego nos apresuramos a pedir nuestro plato principal. Es un restaurante caro y nos gusta disfrutar de la experiencia. Pero esta presión constante me ha hecho repensar nuestros planes para volver a visitar esta excelente experiencia gastronómica. Nuestra reserva fue a las 7: 00 y a las 9: 20 Nos dijeron que necesitaban la mesa, así que tuvimos que irnos.

Great location and attentive staff helped set the tone and mood for a positive and profitable business meeting.

Best place for business meeting

Nos invitaron a esta fabulosa cena con la familia. Fue la elección del esposo de mi sobrina cenar aquí y me alegro mucho de haberlo hecho. Es un pequeño restaurante íntimo con un personal atento que fue muy amable y servicial con el menú y las opciones de vino durante la cena. Todos tuvimos deliciosa comida y vinos. Recomiendo encarecidamente este restaurante.

這家餐廳是主打英國菜係，但是也有其他國家的選擇，尤其喜歡這裡的做法，非常fusion，食材是我最欣賞的，很喜歡！

Lovely to viist Soho Brasserie. Nice vibe and very friendly staff. Unlike Cafe Boheme where they think they do you a favour serving you. Bar staff, front line staff and waiters are very friendly and make you very welcome. Roberto behind the bar with his colleagues were great serving us and to choose from the wine list. Sebastian was great at the table and is only a very big plus for Soho Brasserie. Wish all London waiters had his attitude, wit and charm. Even the table next to us made positive comments about his service levels! Thanks Soho Brasserie for a very pleasant afternoon with food, wine and company!

Très très en dessous de ce que b ai connu. Black cod à peine mangeable baignant dans la crème, purée froide, service très désagréable et approximatif. Le tout hors de prix.

We were looking forward to dining at Gauthier Soho, but the experience fell short of expectations. While the restaurant is known for its vegan fine dining, the food lacked creativity and depth. The flavors were mostly uninspiring, and the set menu format made the evening feel mechanical rather than special—more like a production line than an intimate dining experience. Nothing stood out as refined, joyful, or memorable. Beyond the food, the service and ambiance were underwhelming. The welcome at the entrance was indifferent—no warmth or personal touch—and retrieving our coats at the end was chaotic. The setting itself also needs an upgrade: the ground-floor carpet was worn and dirty, the dining chairs’ upholstery looked dated, the dinnerware was surprisingly basic, and even the toilets could have been cleaner. There was nothing elegant or sophisticated about the overall experience. We also did not see Chef Alexis Gauthier that night, and perhaps that absence was reflected in the lack of personal or creative flair. That being said, we fully support the restaurant’s vegan vision and appreciate efforts to bring plant-based fine dining to a wider audience. However, there are many better options in London—both in terms of quality and price. We paid £300 for two people, and that didn’t even include a drink pairing. At this price point, we expected a far more refined and memorable experience. To top it off, we were surprised to receive a note with the bill encouraging us to write a review immediately in exchange for a “gift” from the restaurant. This felt very transactional—as if we were being nudged to say something positive for a reward. It left us with the impression of a business mindset rather than a place truly focused on hospitality and guest experience. Unfortunately, we wouldn’t recommend Gauthier Soho, as it neither delivered on culinary innovation nor provided a setting worthy of its reputation. Finally, the presentation by the owner on Google is truly misleading (we found out after our dinner): "Having earned a star within a year of opening Gauthier Soho, Alexis Gauthier is described by Zagat guide as "...one of the Best New French food destinations in London...". The fact is that Gauthier Soho earned its first Michelin star in 2011 but LOST it in 2013. Currently, the restaurant does NOT hold a star in the Michelin guide.

Fantastic cocktails (whisky sour) and people watching
