Gaucho - Tira de Ancho with Mashed Potatoes

Gaucho is a high quality steakhouse in many locations across London, I went to the one at The O2…read morefor proximity, which was cool to see this building up close. It's elegantly decorated with some fun seating decked out in cow print. I started with the Grilled corn velouté soup with watercress, which was very good. No seasoning needed as it was well balanced for a cool autumn night. For my main, I got the Gaucho Steak Pie, which was a slow-braised beef, mushroom, creamed mash, red wine jus. Very good and traditionally English with a classy modern take. Delicious and hearty. For desert, I got the Sticky Toffee Pudding, which I'm a sucker for. I had it the night before at another restaurant, The Ivy, and while it wasn't quite as good, it was really close. Very very good. Service was fine dining quality. Attentive and nice. I observed one server having fun with a table of people. That was nice to see. The one thing that was disappointing was the screaming family of kids behind me. I assume that's due to not only crappy parenting, but the location being at the O2. I would think it's better and more classy in central London. But not the restaurant's fault. Just ruined the atmosphere. They were running around on top of other booths. Just a bad look that maybe the restaurant should crack down on. Other than that, I'd recommend for sure visiting a Gaucho while in London.

The bread was perfectly Argentine. They brought a sample of the steaks by the table, our servers…read morewas knowledgeable and courteous. He was the perfect blend of attentive but also leaving us along to enjoy our business dinner. I had the Tira de Ancho medium, it was cooked perfectly. I loved the chimichurri, even though I like mine a little more tangy. Highly recommend!

Dinner last night here was splendid. The view of the river…read morewhile sitting under the tree canopy with the delicious meal and amazing wine - this place was the great choice. For the Argentinian restaurant the steaks were grilled unevenly. While we ordered all medium rare, the meat came out some parts were medium and some more rare. The steaks had the same thickness throughout - perhaps their grill is not emitting heat properly? But that was a bit disappointing from a steakhouse Dinner for five was under £500

A very average and overpriced meal. I kind of knew this would be the case after I learned Gaucho is…read morea chain but I tried it anyways. On entry it's already a bad first impression. The interior and feel of this place is very dated. It looks straight out of the late 90's, early 2000's with stark color choices, no warmth to the space at all, and a general feel of wear and tear on everything; a few seconds is all it takes to start feeling some regret about your choices. Unfortunately the food confirms it. We tried some empanadas, both beef and the chicken+chorizo versions, and they were okay - I've had better almost everywhere. But the steak was the real let down. I chose the specialty cut of the ancho (Rib Eye) and while it look pretty tasty, the texture was good, and the temp was perfectly medium rare, there was almost no flavor at all to the meat. Chimichurri sauce did not help it nor did the name "Ancho" which suggests there is going to be some bold flavors kicking out of this steak. To be fair, British beef has been very underwhelming in general so the locals clearly need to start from a disadvantage but as many cuisines and chefs have demonstrated there is a lot you can do with an otherwise lower quality piece of meat - none of that knowledge is demonstrated here. Service was mostly non-existent. Skip it.

Great service- moderately priced - great views!…read more On our last evening in London, we wanted to try a steakhouse near our hotel. Goodman's was the highest rated in our area for steakhouses so we gave it a try. The prices aren't cheap but are comparable to steakhouses back in the states. We ordered a t-bone and a bone in ribeye- both are cuts we typically order in the US paired with mashed potatoes and creamed spinach- also side dishes we would typically order with our steaks. The manager stopped by our table to apologize for the delay in our order (honestly we didn't even notice). Shortly after her apology our food arrived and exactly how we ordered - medium rare. Nothing is worse than a steak that is over prepared to your liking. They served the steaks with 3 sauces- bernaise, pepper sauce, and bbq flavored sauce. The sauces were ok in flavor but I feel steak is best eaten with butter & salt and as minimal sauce as possible to enjoy the steak. A good steak doesn't require any sauce in my opinion. Although the steak was prepared to our liking - always a plus when dining out - what stood out the most was the service. Isabella (Zabella) was a fabulous server. She was accommodating and offered several choices. A few of the steaks we attempted to order were sold out and she offered alternatives which is always better than "sorry we're out". She was a lovely Italian who gave us friendly service in addition to travel advice to her home country. On top of the great service, the manager once again stopped by and offered us dessert and a drink as an apology for the delay in our food service. We definitely didn't expect this but happy to oblige when she offered. Price is always an important factor when choosing a restaurant, but service almost always supersedes that (within reason of course). When you have great food AND great service that's a 5 Star in my opinion! So when you're in the Canary Warf area of London, definitely check out Goodman with the nice views of the water and great service.

The food and service was excellent! Such friendly staff. We ordered steak and truffle fries, top…read morenotch for sure!!!!!!!
