Gazette Putney

Delicious foi gras, great chateaubriand anf fantastic service. If you are looking for a tasty meal in the heart of Putney this restaurant is highly recommended.

Come with an empty stomach as they don't give you small portions.

It is a tad on the pricey side but thats probably because of two reasons
a) quality of ingredients (outstanding)
b) my girlfriend and I are greedy for food, so we probably ordered more than we should have for two

Delicious food and a good variety to serve different requirements. Felt very well looked after and there was a lovely ambiance to the place. We really enjoyed ourselves and would definitely come back again.

Tasty and homely. Most of the food was very tasty and good quality. Was an issue with one dish and they took it off the bill and gave us a new dish. Service was a little slow to begin with.

Made to feel welcomed as arrived which was nice. A hot evening so lovely to have plenty of water on the table before we chose drinks.
The food was good, especially the crab starter and steak.
Little disappointing was the foix gras fiellette bit and the pawn starter with one over cooked prawn.
But great place to catch up on a three generation and two continents party as food was diverse enough for all tastes and needs.
Thank you for looking after us so nicely.

Don't live anymore in the area but it's always a pleasure to go back!
Great food, Cosy atmosphere, welcoming and professional staff!

Retirement lunch - really good all round

I'd read other reviews which were good but I was not impressed with this place. Somehow the menu is very off putting (perhaps its the layout) and I ended up just having a burger. Having said that it was good and so was my husband's cod. I think the main problem was the service/ambience. Perhaps the staff were tired after a long Sat service (we ate late after a concert) but although we'd booked, the service was slow and the waiter's attitude off-putting. Afraid we probably won't pay a repeat visit though a place like this is needed in Putney.

Favourite restaurant in London. Perfect for dinner any night of the week

Goat cheese with honey dressing is my favourite! Really friendly staff and delicious food

Delicious authentic food and service. You must have the tomato tart.

What a difference a week makes. Service and food back to what I have normally come to expect at Gazette. Delicious if slightly overpriced scallop starter (the 3 scallops are tiny for £12). Ribeye steak smelled and tasted excellent though more well done that I would expect for a medium steak, but delicious nonetheless.

I have been to Gazette a good half a dozen times previously. This time it was all a bit underwhelming. The lady looking after our table looked like she’d rather be elsewhere. Normally the service is quite friendly. Service was slow, they left our dishes 30-45 mins after we had finished our main, my crab bisque starter was barely lukewarm, and the snails were under seasoned. The madeleines were excellent, but it felt too little too late. Altogether just average on this occasion.

I had the set price lunch menu, mushroom soup and beef bourguinon, which were both delicious, and it was very good value for money. We'll be back!

Great food, friendly service, great place for dinner!

The atmosphere, service and food were all excellent. I highly recommend The Gazette and will return again soon.

We planned to have the Chateau Briand but were tempted by the daily special - which was delicious. And gives us an excuse to return for the CB another time!

Had a lovely meal

Lovely food and great service.

Third visit since and including Christmas Day. Very pleased to introduce friends to this excellent restaurant. Fabulous food served in a relaxed atmosphere

As always great food at great price.! The steak tartare is amazing and our favourite.

Have been to Gazette in Putney a few times and always have an enjoyable experience. Delicious bloody marys, escargot and great kids menu! Highly recommend!

Went for morel mushroom week. Good menu but same as last year. Lovely food. Nice team.

My partner and I and his mother came here on Easter Monday and found the staff as efficient and friendly as ever. The morel mushroom dishes were wonderful too. It's so exciting to know that there will be a different seasonal ingredient each fortnight.

You know what it's like when you have to book a restaurant somewhere to meet some friends and you're taking a bit of a punt? What if the kids don't like the food or if the menu doesn't have enough variety to suit the different tastes. Or maybe there's just too much choice, which in my experience can mean a fairly standard rather than exceptional experience as the kitchen gets spread too thinly across cuisines. Seconds after entering Gazette Putney all of those fears were put to rest. The menu had old favourites and some more exotic choices, the resulting meals were uniformly delicious, the wine, coffee and deserts were equally excellent and the service was prompt and efficient. If you're writing a review and your only criticisms can be that perhaps this sauce was a little thin (for your taste) or that chocolate desert was a bit too chocolaty (for me) then you're onto a good thing.

Food was delicious and services was friendly and prompt.

We are very fond of dining at Gazette which we consider to be our local.
We were as always warmly welcomed.
We had a lovely red wine, the appetisers were tasty, my husband fish was very good and well cooked but my mussels were not wonderful as they were tiny and rubbery which is unusual as normally they are great and plump.
We will still continue to go though and recommend it as it’s a lovely local eatery.

I chose white asparagus which were really hard and tough. No flavour. I also had mussels that didn't taste of much either. My Husband's and son's s steak were chewy.

Great food as always but the service was a bit haphazard but I think they'd been run off their feet with Mother's day lunches.

The first thing I need to say is I love the food here it’s amazing. The flavour and quality is very good indeed.
However of late, more often than not the service is diabolical.
The majority of the staff are nothing short of rude, dismissive and non attentive. The last 5 times I’ve visited here my guests and I have been left for an average of 30 minutes before our drinks orders are taken and I’ve needed to pull over a member of staff to have our order taken (this establishment has not always busy when I visited in fact I usually visit when it’s quiet)
The food is good but my patience with horrendous service and the bad attitude is wearing thin, next time this happens I will refuse to pay the service charge as lately it’s quite frankly an insult. I used to visit twice a week or more but now I visit perhaps once every other month. It’s sad as it used to be a delightful little place to eat and entertain friends. I have previously left glowing reviews but I just can’t put service down to staff having a bad day any longer!

Second meal at Gazette Putney. Food very good, especially the puddings. Decent value, too.

Food and service were excellent as always.

Interesting and varied menu to suit most tastes. Only quibble with the food was that the lamb was overcooked. Service was not the fastest but that didn't concern our group

Very noisy for a Wednesday evening, service a little slow (we ordered drinks.. they still hadn’t come by the time we ordered our food 15 mins later) but beautiful, beautiful food! Would recommend!

Gazette offers authentic French food and is one of my favourite restaurants in Putney. It has a nice selection of wines AND dessert wines. They do have delicious desserts but sometimes I'd go for a glass of Sauternes as a "healthier" option...

Delicious food, I had crab starter and calamari risotto . Service was quick and friendly. We were on a small table near the bar but it was fine. Reasonably priced. Would definately return. Sound levels good

Back on form. Wonderful.

Beautiful food , very good service. We enjoyed our meal very much and already booked again.

Fantastic service and delicious food. We've been a couple of times now to Gazette Putney and this was the best. Although very noisy, we had an enjoyable lunch and the staff were friendly and worked incredibly hard throughout. We will be coming back to try more of your tasty, improved menu.

We’ve been before and is always nice. Friends birthday and we were looked after very well

Authentic French Brasserie with great traditional dishes. Accommodates children too and it is a very relaxed venue all round. Specialities include Moules, Offal and Game when in season. Great wine list incl. Gazette's own vineyard and highly affordable. Could try to offer more wonderful desserts and dessert wines. Very happy.

Nothing special. I have ordered mussels / moules mariniere, because this is a Belgian/French cuisine restaurant. There was a very little sauce at the bottom; no flavor at all. Just steamed or boiled mussels.
House wine is good.
Homemade fries was good.
Unfortunately; didnt meet my expectations.
