    Amazing we have to go to Gauchos every time we're in London and you will not get disappointed fresh appetizers and the great steaks with mashed potatoes truffle mac and cheese with fries or chips Service here is the best as well I'll drop some pics

    For coming 30mins before closing...the service and food here was HELLA good. Shoutout to our server (sorry forget her name) but she explained the different meats and made a great suggestion of the steak marinated for two days. She gave us exceptional service and as much as I would hate someone coming in that close to closing (server myself) she definitely went above and beyond with the service!

    Beautiful view of Tower Bridge while enjoying a nice "Ancho" ribeye steak. Gaucho is a special places to eat, known for the finest Argentine steak and wine in the UK. Service was excellent, overall great date night.

    The Gaucho restaurant is perfectly situation next to Tower Bridge and City Hall. Great location! What caught me right away was the cow hide style chairs inside. The ambiance is perfect and the staff were amazing to say the least. They make all the drinks you can want and stuck to the Cabernet Franc, Casarena Laruens Vineyard, from Mendoza. It was delicious!! Here is what we had for appetizers and what recommend: -Beef Empanadas -Mini Burgers -Shrimp Chicharron -Spanish Mini Pincho -Chorizo Sausage -Tuna Ceviche Main Course - I went with their Signature Bife De Ancho (Rib eye served with chimichurri) Im telling you guys, this was really really good. Had it cooked medium rare and the flavor the sauce and wine just paired wonderfully! Desserts - We all shared the Dulce de leche cheesecake, poached plums and praline chocolate mousse. All delicious! One thing I wanted to point out which is why I have a 5 star is because their staff is exemplary! They brought to my attention that one of their servers accidentally dropped Bearnaise sauce on the floor next to me and some of it landed on my jacket. Keep in mind, they didnt have to tell me anything. They went out of their way and told me, took my jacked and tried their best to clean it on the spot. Took some off but since it was dark couldnt really say the other areas on my dark suit coat. One of the owners, Milena came to me and said to get it dry cleaned and they would take care of the bill. This is what I call "best in breed" customer service!!! Bravo! I am back home in the US now and they have issued me a re-reimbursement of the laundry bill to have the stains removed from my jacket! Well done! Not only was the food and wine superb, their customer service and follow up are exemplary! Thank you to the Gaucho staff for showing my team such a good time and for wonderful experience. Look forward to visiting theme when I travel across the pond!

    Reception staff not so much, kept me waiting for 40 minutes while there are a lot of open seats. Would not recommend. Tried the ribeye, decent quality, but that's sort of expected given the price. Highlight is the Dulce de Leche cheesecake. It's probably not how real Argentinians would have it, but I liked it.

    Man oh man ABSOLUTELY amazing! Made reservations about 3-4 days before and requested a view of the tower bridge when we went on our trip to London. Got to the area about a hour or two before our reservations and they had a whole outdoor extravaganza with little truck bars opened up service awesome drinks while taking in the amazing views. Got to the restaurant our table was ready for us which had an amazingggg view of tower bridge (which the table was not guaranteed with this view) started off with some bottles of wine and appetizers and as we selected our meats they bring the meats out to you and show you the marbling on the meat itself and go over in detail about the meat before bringing it out. Some of the juiciest steaks I've ever had. Amazing service amazing food amazing view. Should book another trip to London just for Gaucho.

    We came here in December on a Wednesday at around 5. We asked the girl at the front if we could be seated even though we did not have reservations. She proceeded to take a call and act pretty snooty that we had even dared to enter the restaurant without a reservation. We stood there for a good ten minutes waiting for her verdict, when I felt it could have been a simple yes or no. Eventually she confirmed that she could find a place for us in the virtually empty restaurant, (Although, I will say the restaurant did fill, not to capacity, but people did arrive as the time ticked to 6 p.m.) After this rough start with the poor front desk customer service, the night did take a drastic turn for the better. Our waiter was simply fantastic. He was from Italy and recommended a wine that was just to my taste! We had the appetizer of empanadas. We ordered the tasting plate that had different flavors. Let me warn you that the empanadas are huge, so one would have been sufficient, but we had 6 between the two of us and it could have made up our entire meal! The beef was my favorite. We also ordered the filet which was cooked to the perfect temperature of medium rare. I would describe the atmosphere as modern elegance, but it wasn't so stuffy that you couldn't get away with wearing casual to business casual attire. All in all I would recommend and go back again

    Gaucho's has become a bit of a family favourite over the years. It started by mistake; my dad took me to one near Liverpool St station as we wanted something nice, but close to our train home. We then started to go to this location near the river, and now, every year, I go again for my birthday (and the occasional other family moment!) Gaucho's trades on Argentinian beef. There are a set of fantastic cuts, cooked to your liking, together with an enjoyable range of sides. The sides are a little small; we find it works best to have them as a sharing experience, which works out really well. Personally, I really enjoy the food. My journey through steak from well to medium has been facilitated by Gaucho's. The food is always well cooked and the staff are always accommodating and attentive. The wine selection is also great. As my family has expanded to include 2 young nieces, Gaucho's have continued to accommodate us in a pretty swish restaurant; trust me, that's quite a challenge! Overall, I really enjoy my meals here. There might be better in the city, there's probably cheaper, but for me, this is a great place for a great steak.

And for the quality of food you get, I think this place is reasonably priced. The restaurant is not far from Old Street station and has a pub feel, but slightly more refined. The staff was really friendly, attentive and knowledgeable on the menu. I highly recommend a reservation though as even when we came here on a Monday night, it was busy. I don't think you can go wrong with almost anything on the menu. Everything we had was delicious, and you can tell the chef's really know how and understand how to cook and flavor meat to perfection. The most surprising item though, is the White Chocolate Cheesecake. It is served out of a dish, tiramisu style, and is one of the best desserts I have had in a while. It was not too rich but so flavorful. So when you come here, make sure to save room for dessert!

The host was friendly and hospitable and made small talk as she led us to our table upstairs. They had a great, spacious bar downstairs as well that was appealing. The restaurant is beautifully decorated. It has a cozy and modern feel to it with the unique metal chain window 'curtains', pipe style light chandeliers, church pew style or padded booths as well as table and bar seating. They have a huge deer made out of pennies as decor above the entrance as well as a bull decopaged with paper bills upstairs. The upstairs overlooks the lower floor in a balcony style. I appreciated the view to outside with the 20 foot windows below. Perfect for my first people watching experience in London. We were greeted from our server right away and she made wine and cocktail recommendations to start. We had a burger from the main course as well as scallops and the salmon three ways from the starters. The burger was generous, very juicy and flavorful. Would recommend and try this again. The scallops were a decent size and came four to an order. The salmon trio was great. One was like a butter salmon you could put on the bread, the second a small piece of raw salmon and the third more like a salmon spread. Overall, great atmosphere, service and food. I would recommend them!

Its next to the Sky Garden so we were able to hang out there, grab some drinks, and enjoy the beautiful skyline views until our reservation at Blacklock - they let us in pretty early since we were really tired and wanted to get back to the hotel sooner We eventually get seated, place is packed and lively. We got the All in sunday roast consisting of pork, beef, lamb, grilled carrots, potatoes, greens, and Yorkshire pudding. Its served with refillable gravy and an assortment of sauces. The gravy was one of the best ive had! Pork and lamb were pretty fatty which i prefer. Potatoes were nice but skin was pretty chewy, hard to cut through as they were pretty big pieces. Thought there was way too much pudding and not enough meat as we got dinner for 4 - its 28 pounds pp for one plate full, which felt pretty pricey for what we got Overall the roast was good and was a new experience. The cheesecake was interesting as well - the crust wasnt really a crust, moreso a separate biscuit layer with the cheese filling spread on top. I typically am not the biggest fan of cheesecake but this is more of a preferable variation for me Originally thought we were getting bad service but soon realized as an american that this is the culture here lol - yes the place was really busy but we learned that in London (and Europe in general) your meal is relaxed and theyre a lot more hands off. You need to cue staff for everything so it felt a bit off putting to constantly ask for water and gravy refills, dessert order, and the check in that busy environment. But its part of the etiquette I suppose, so expect to need to do that and to potentially account for a bit of extra time spent

However, it was a whopping 93 GBP for 600g, which is meant to share between 2 people, but still not that much (refer to my pic). This is simply just too high of a price for this. Bone marrow and onions (12 GBP) - This was surprisingly good. Although the marrow itself didn't have much of a flavor, it was a nice buttery consistency to spread on the bread. The onions were cooked very well. Sticky Toffee Pudding (9.50 GBP) - This was more of a bread like dessert than a pudding, but was tasty and not overly sweet despite the toffee (which is good). The staff are very friendly, helpful, and attentive. The service speed is pretty quick. The interior is decorated in a nice yet not too pretentious steakhouse style. There were still plenty of open tables available on a Sunday night. Overall, while the steak and food are very good, the steak is simply too overpriced to justify me getting it again. Maybe worth trying once but not twice. I would potentially come back for the other menu options though.

I did not enjoy the side because of the very mushy texture, so that was a bit of a bummer. The steak itself was pretty delish. As a cocktail I had their passion fruit Collins which was very refreshing. I found that overall in London the cocktails were all on point pretty much everywhere we went. We had noticed that any person leaving the restaurant always had ice cream, and when we were finished with the meal we did get the little silver cleavers and our free sweet treat. I appreciated the straightforward menu and the ambience, which is casual but also stylish and not pretentious at all, just relaxed and cozy with softer lighting and a good flow.

We had zero expectations, but ended up having what might be our favorite meal of the whole trip. The staff? Absolute gems -- especially patient with us Texans who came armed with 400 questions (bless them). The restaurant's tucked downstairs, and here's a tip: book bar seating. Not at the bar, but in the room with the bar. It's cozier, prettier, and avoids the more standard dining space. The vibe? Understated elegance. Think cozy meets classy without any of the snobbery.
