Gaucho Set Lunch Menu: 12–3PM | Two Courses - £24.50 | Three Courses - £27.50 | Monday- Friday

Piccadilly is our flagship restaurant, set in a beautiful townhouse just off Regent Street, encompassing the ultimate Gaucho experience in the West End. Impeccable Argentinian steaks, flavours of Latin America and a perfectly curated drinks list are all enjoyed in uncompromised elegance in the former home of a Spanish Ambassador.

This impressive restaurant boasts a variety of unique spaces that soar over three stories. At ground level, you have our warm and welcoming dining room with adjoining weather-proof terrace. As you ascend the original sweeping staircase, you’ll find another dining space with a spectacular open kitchen, where we host our legendary Electro brunch, as well as a myriad of gorgeous private rooms – one inspired by our former Spanish resident.

Please note: we currently do not accept OpenTable dining cheques.

    Great front of house and waiter but we sat outside as it was a lovely day but wish we hadn’t. Noise from other customers was loud, the waiter struggled to get to the same table and encroached our space. Food was great but a wine list in the same folder as the champagne would be better as we had to wait for that to be given to us.

    Very very noisy if you want a eat peacefully and talk with your mate. Steak came cold, after asking to replace it came back less than warm. Completely tastesless. Afterwards they refunded the steak cost. Very disappointing. However the service was good and the management is understanding.

    To expensive for the amount and the quality. Also was very noisy and that strange policy of not servicing outside after 11pm although our table was for 10pm. The receptionist who leads us to the table had a strange unprofessionally behaviour. However our waiter was very good!

    The value for money was no where near as good as previous visits. The chateaubriand was served cold, the side order of mushrooms were flavourless and the chips were limp and not what we'd been previously served, or would expect. However the chicken breast main was cooked to perfection and full of flavour.

    Gaucho seems to be slipping. I get the feeling that they are packing people into the restaurants without the staff to manage the volume. Therefore the service was poor and the staff didn't seem that happy. It was very noisy and drafty on the 2nd floor. The check in experience was poor as one member of staff kept interrupting. The food is ok but I seem to remember it being much better. So I would not recommend Gauchos now, although I used to love the experience.

    Our starter to share, the sourdough bread was very tough in areas. I understand sourdough is a particular texture but it could have been easier to share (ie. able to at least cut!) I ordered the gnocchi for my main, and for the price of £18 the portion size was poor. I had finished my food before my partner had even eaten half of his meal! For £18 I wouldn’t have expected to need a side, but I would definitely recommend ordering a side if choosing the gnocchi. I had queried with the manager about the pre and post theatre menu (as advertised on the Gaucho website) and he said this wasn’t available as it was a separate menu with an outside company. This was not clearly stated on the Gaucho website, or in fine print on the online menu, I would advise this to be advertised properly as it was a disappointment for us due to be attending the theatre and for our budget to change.

    The food quite nice (set lunch ) apart from watermelon salad with traces of watermelon literally and that was not even fresh but tasted like cut definitely few days ago . I wonder why so frugal with the watermelon? Is this hard to find fruit? And not possible to serve freshly prepared salads? It has spoiled my taste. I should have complained at the time.

    Touch disappointed with Gaucho Piccadilly, in my booking I advised it was my sons 18th birthday celebration and Gaucho’s really did nothing to make it special. I had to ask for a booth after being seated at a table by the kitchen and had to remind the waiter of the birthday who then brought out some chocolate truffles for him. Sadly, this dining experience did not meet my rather expectations of Gauchos!

    The restaurant seemed abit dated, the bathrooms so badly designed and so small for the crowed. I nearly had a door slammed on me. Food in my opinion has not felt the same as pre covid and felt very very rushed. 4 persons standing by the entrance table seemed excessive and the securities could be polite/approachable and still do their job

    Beautifully decorated, but that’s about it. The wine list is atrocious, and while I understand the need for big mark up on alcohol, these guys are taking the Mick. I don’t mind paying a lot of money for wine, it’s what I do, but the wine you’re paying for here is absolute trash. This place suffers from being a franchise marketed at the wrong level. With so many restaurants the exec chef clearly has had to dilute the menu and any complexity in it to make it repeatable in all restaurants
that’s fine if your charging model reflects that, but Gaucho’s prices do not. This is basic food and terrible value wine aimed at people that know nothing about food or wine and simply think the experience is good because the atmosphere and prices tell them so. It’s the equivalent of one of those Wowchers for a fine dining restaurant experience which is just utterly disappointing. Go literally anywhere else.

    My girlfriend ordered a fillet steak and lobster tail and was ill the next day, it must’ve been the lobster as I did not eat it and we ate the same foods all day. Personally I enjoyed my meal but she was very disappointed with hers. I’ve been to other gauchos which have been a much better experience as we had a drinks order forgotten as well.

    I feel Gaucho has gone down hill from where it was a few years ago. I’ve eaten at Piccadilly and Richmond over the last few months and honestly felt the service wasn’t as friendly at both. The fillet steak was fatty, the chips greasy and bread balls were oily. I would rather go to hawksmoor or Goodmans for the same price, as the quality of steak and food is better.

    Enjoyed our visit to Gaucho's Piccadilly, but can't help but feel that the quality of the service and the food has diminished since we were last there 3 years ago... What hasn't changed is that this is still an expensive night out.

    Overall the food was good. We had a side of mushrooms that were not so good but when we asked for them to be swapped, this was done without question and we were not charged for them. The down side was the cleanliness of the male toilets, they were barely usable and been cleaned at all, they were reminiscent of a public toilet at a football match. There are the things that stick in the mind and over-shadow what was otherwise a good evening.
