"The experience was good overall. Unfortunately there was a few downfalls. The starters came out extremely quick and the sausage was overcooked (burnt). No one checked to see if the food was ok and the plates were taken away with addressing us. The mains were nice but WELL over seasoned, half way through the steak had to stop to take on water. We also had an additional dish put on our table that we hadn't ordered. I did say we would keep it (as it looked nice) but the waiter just took it away. the desserts were really nice and the non alcoholic cocktails were fantastic."

"I've personally never had a bad experience at Gaucho. The quality of the food is great personal preference, I also enjoy the ambience and style of Gaucho restaurants. Yes, it is expensive but I think that the whole package is worth the price.Big shout out to the guy at reception that pretty much ran to bring me my card that I've left on the table"

"Visited with my daughter before the Celine Dion concert on 29th July. First impressions were good but things went downhill fairly quickly. We arrived about 5.30 and were seated upstairs. Despite being fairly quiet staff still seemed a bit flustered. We ordered drinks and received the wrong order, when asking for it to be changed the waitress didn't totally understand the problem but eventually returned with that we ordered. We only had soft drinks but just tasted like cheap juice. The food looked lovely, with a good selection, but sadly not as tasty as it appeared. By 6.15 it was getting quite busy and as you would expect the food that was available soon disappeared. Unfortunately they just couldn't keep up with demand at this point and took ages to replenish food, plates and cutlery. People were waiting to be served with drinks and queuing for food for an unacceptable length of time. A few were complaining but weren't getting much response. An apology goes a long way to appeasing people but it wasn't forthcoming. When they finally started to top up the food it was going quickly again so no doubt it would've ran out again all too soon. We didn't hang around to find out once we saw the dirty, wet dishes that were brought out for desserts. That was a bit off-putting so we gave up and left.Probably nice when they don't have as many people to look after but wouldn't go back to find out!"

"Being immediately after New Year and early in the week, the restaurant was only moderately busy and comfortably accommodated our party of 8. The service was attentive and the food was good, albeit expensive especially when one adds in side dishes [chips, vegetables etc] each circa £4 to accompany the main courses. My main gripe is that the wine list is expensive, with the cheapest wines at £35 and rapidly rising thereafter for wines that aren't particularly special, which in turn bumps up the service charge."

"New Years Day the restaurant was busy but didn't feel crowded, Groucho position the tables with respectful space. Our waiter was outstanding, he gave us so much attention from helping us with off menu cocktails and wine selection, to patiently talking us through the meat cuts. We opted for steaks, which came cooked to perfection (not easy to get medium rare perfect but the chef nailed it) with all the sauces which where equally incredible. Advice leave some room for dessert, Sticky toffee, cheesecake and cookie dough are all highly recommended."

"Not very busy for a Friday night, which was great as we booked last minute Asked for a bottle of wine, which took people to ask again and again what I wanted, finally arrived and not quite cold enough. Ordered scallops that were small and over cooked, these were quickly replaced and came back a much better size and tasted great Not offered a second bottle of wine, had to grab a wine list myself. Steaks were very good, blue cheese sauce was a bit too thick However our server was lovely and very good."

"Went for the 30 year Legacy menu , had starter of Argentine sausage, main of marinated steak, mash and fried onions (the chef kindly done them) really tasty. Had dessert of pancakes with dulche de leche sauce and ice cream really enjoyed it. Service first class as always"

"We went as a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children. I must admit the experience was pretty disappointing. The steak was a little over cooked, the chips were soggy (they must have been sitting under the heater for a long time) and the ribeye could have been a lot more tender. Burger was good value, chicken Milanese was over cooked. Service was great and ambience enjoyable. It’s a nice looking restaurant and a seat near the window is recommended, there is always something to look at. Probably won’t rush back."

"pleasant location (as we are drawn from the dark tables on the back of the restaurant). I had a green salad bowl, which was totally uninspiring and a friend had the chicken kere that were processed on a stiel rubber-like right corner. fish and chips were greasy and tasteless. the burger was probably the best of baptism, but again nothing to be happy. a very disappointing ending in edinburgh after so many other beautiful dining and great culinary experiences elsewhere. bland, unimaginable and very disappointing avoid!"

"I opted for the healthiest thing on the menu! Not like me but I felt like my body needed it, it was immense, so many flavours on one plate with lovely grilled chicken Staff were super friendly and attentive especially to my elderly mum in her wheelchair My mum is a super complainer and she never moaned once, so that's a feat in itself, well done lol"

"In case you’re a little behind with the news, the famous St John Hotel off Leicester Square is out and in its places is a new French-Vietnamese restaurant (their words not mine), Leicester House. The site seems to have been doomed from the day it first came to life and changed through more hands than it should have in the past few years. Location can’t be blamed either, because after all – it’s slap bang in the middle of central London. There is a light at the end of this dark and gloomy tunnel however, with the arrival of the new Leicester House restaurant. This transformed Georgian townhouse is looking stunning right now décor wise, I can’t get enough of its sumptuous décor, plush leather chairs and shades of crisp Farrow Ball colours splashed across the walls. The food is just as good too – but its origins need a little homing in to help this place go further on the culinary scene."

"Had breakfast there on Sunday. Great choice of food and nice place inside. Coffee was a bit lacking in flavour though, and my full breakfast, although tasty, was all different teperatures. Sausages, pancake and potatoes were hot but eggs, tomato and bacon were pretty cold. Would expect all ingredients to be kept warm and plated together? Will go there again though and hope for better luck next time, as overall was still pleasant."

"I experienced some unfriendly service during my visit. After we received our starters, our plates were promptly cleared as soon as we finished, and our main courses were served without any space in between. This felt quite unacceptable. It seemed like we were rushed to eat and leave. Additionally, the waitstaff stood too close to our table, which made it uncomfortable to have a private conversation. It's really disappointing because the food was actually lovely, but I unfortunately wouldn't choose to return."

"We were initially seated and given the menu, but we noticed there was no drinks menu. When we tried to order drinks, the server assumed we already knew what we wanted despite not having a drinks menu. We ordered wings that were overcooked, but the shrimp was tasty. Next, we ordered the skewers. The skewers were brought to our table, but we were left to cook them ourselves. When we tried to cut the meat off the skewers, another waiter scolded us and said that the other waiters would have taken care of it for us. Overall, the service was lacking, particularly from the Asian server with glasses. The skewers themselves were delicious, but we experienced better service at a more affordable restaurant."

"Went to Meat Co for my anniversary. There was a hair in my steak. I'm not so much annoyed about this but was more frustrated at the attitude from the Manager. Firstly, she denied that there was a hair making me feel as if I was lying about it. Secondly, they expected my boyfriend to eat his food whilst i watched him for 30 minutes whilst a new steak was cooked. Had to keep pushing for our food to come together, rolled her eyes took all the food and brought back the food altogether. Bad experience on this occasion but have previously had a good experience at this restaurant."

"Almost refused us as they had no confirmation of our reservation. We arrived early, 12.05, only one table occupied and staff said there was not going to be a table free until 2.15. After showing my confirmation from my phone he said we could sit anywhere! We ordered, ate and left by 1.00, still only 4 tables occupied..... very poor , first visit, probably will not return . Food was OK.."
