Lucky Cat by Gordon Ramsey in London delivered an incredible dining experience, but Luca truly took our evening to another level! From the moment he greeted us, he was friendly, patient, fun, and incredibly attentive. His attention to detail was excellent, and every recommendation he made was spot-on. He didn't just serve us--he made sure we genuinely enjoyed the experience. And that Gordon's Fried Chicken?! Absolutely to die for! We tried it both with and without the spicy sauce, and honestly, you can't go wrong either way. The handcrafted cocktails were superb as well. I had both the House Old Fashioned and the Original Old Fashioned. Both were very good, but the House Old Fashioned took the crown! Great food and cocktails can make a night memorable, but exceptional service is what makes you want to return. Luca, thank you for your patience, personality, recommendations, and outstanding service. You represented Lucky Cat exceptionally well and helped make our London evening one to remember. And then there was the view! Lucky Cat gave us one of the most spectacular dining views I've ever experienced. Outside of New York City, this may honestly be the best restaurant view I've ever had. Looking out over London while enjoying dinner and cocktails made the entire experience that much more special. Cheers from Andre & Andrea read more

I was disappointed... the service is so slow and I think there's better sushi/nigiri elsewhere. The wagyu gyoza was a stand out for us. I was so excited to come here after seeing Gordon Ramsey's docuseries of building this place. I think the overall environment would be much better at night time. 3.5/5 read more

Overall: 5 stars Stopped by for a light dinner while I was doing a comprehensive run of all Gordon Ramsay Chains. Was thrilled to find out that he does Asian food well too, and this chain has their cute lucky cat chopstick holders that I ended up buying takeaway as a souvenir. I found the staff to be kind and attentive as with other GR restaurants that left a positive impression. Duck Salad - Intriguing take that combines the Thai/Viet-forward tart mango salad with a beautifully seared duck breast. I like the vibrant flavor profile that really awakens the palette. Wagyu Nigiri - Served aburi style with fresh wasabi, I was impressed by how authentic this piece of sushi was.

This place is really amazing. I was here for a private event and I'm fascinated by this spot and the views. I'm at the bishop gate location and the views are spectacular, the food was so yummy and the wine list was wonderful. Top class service and I want to visit the governor square location as well. read more

Where to begin. With expectations as high as the restaurant itself, I entered the Lucky Cat after a few confusing elevator rides (you go up to floor 58, then have to enter Bread Street to reach the other lift which takes you to floor 60. We arrived expecting a counter seat, but a table was available so we took it. Let me be brief regarding the experience. The food was delicious. The view was amazing. HOWEVER, the noise level was shocking. The music was blaring. I couldn't hear myself think, and I had to rely on lip reading to comprehend what my friend was saying. We were quite literally shouting at each other for 2 hours. My Apple watch kept alerting me that the environment was too loud. It was nightclub level noise. The service was subpar -- wait staff was rather rude at times. I get that you want to create a cool vibe, but the noise level detracted from the food. It was just quite unenjoyable. Plus it was so dark that I couldn't see my plate. For the money, it was not worth it in my opinion. Yes I got beautiful pics of the skyline, but it wasn't worth tinnitus the next day. read more

Make sure to reserve a few months in advance. There was some confusion with the reservation which was my fault. They were going to try to accommodate us but luckily we were able to sort things out. We were first sat at the bar and given the wine menu. It was odd because I really wanted the drink menu, I wasn't even sure if there was one at that point. I don't drink alcohol and needed the drink menu which I didn't get to see until we sat down. My husband ordered lemongrass cha and kakigori (his favorite). I had the Sakura spritz (non alcoholic). I was delighted that we were seated right against the glass edge. We enjoyed the view very much. We considered getting the signature set menu but there were some dishes that were not on there. In the end, we spent more than what the signature menu would have cost us oops. Pea guac- my first time having pea guac it was a good starter Duck salad - this was good Sakura Salmon- this was delicious, I'm not sure what is Sakura about it though Waygu goyza- Waygu was cooked perfectly but the star of this dish is not the wagyu the taste is over powered by the outer shell and the oils. GFC- this was good and was carried by the creamy sauce Egg fried rice - this is mixed at the table which is a good touch because it looks more presentable before mixing Ibirico pork chops - this was good Hokkido French toast - this was good Mango cheese cake - presentation was nice and favor was amazing There is a 2 hour window and we're notified we had 10 minutes left once dessert came out. We were about to leave and were presented with a plate that congratulated us for our anniversary with some nice chocolates. Better late than never :) overall I had a great experience. It was one of the highlights of the trip. read more

We came to Lucky Cat before eating at Gordan Ramsey bar and grill next door. The vibes are very different. The staff also reflected the different atmospheres. Lucky Cat is dark and upscale. The drinks are not inexpensive, even for the area. It feels like an awesome date experience for 20 and 30 something's looking for a sexy vibe for a nice night out. Compared to the same dollar for dollar experience, I prefer Gordan Ramsey bar and grill next door (especially for the service) ....but on the right occasion, this would be a perfect spot for an elevated night out or kid free date. read more

Not sure what happened or who dropped the ball, but we arrived early, got sat down first, and the two tables next to us ordered the same thing and they kept getting their food first. To see the other tables get almost all 10 courses before us was a bit annoying. One of the items was out because the table next to us, got their order first. It looked like the guy knew one of the cooks, so good for him. The best part of the menu was the sushi, Wagyu, and French toast. I had high hopes for the restaurant since we traveled all the way from California to try it, but was let down. We could've gone without spending $400+ read more

I really wanted to love Lucky Cat because honestly... the space is stunning. The views from 22 Bishopsgate are incredible and the restaurant itself looks beautiful. Definitely one of those places where you walk in and immediately think "okay this is going to be great." Unfortunately, the actual experience didn't really match the setting for us. The drinks were good, but not particularly memorable considering the price point and reputation. The bigger issue was the service. We were seated at a shared high top next to another couple and then waited around 25 minutes before anyone took our order. After that, it was another long wait before the drinks actually arrived. By the time we finally got them, the whole vibe had kind of faded for us and we ended up leaving after one round. I still think it's worth stopping by for the views alone, but overall the experience felt more style over substance than I hoped for. read more

I was pretty excited to try Lucky Cat because honestly the views are stunning from 22 Bishopsgate. My husband and I flew from the US to celebrate our 6 year wedding anniversary & knew Lucky Cat would be a top choice to celebrate. Unfortunately, the views don't make up for the experience. We were seated at the sushi counter, after my husband had booked the reservation far in advance & was explicitly told/confirmed we would be seated at a window table. After going back & forth about this, we were told that "window tables require a premium - because they're a different experience", we then found out this wasn't true & that all tables are booked the same. We were moved to an actual dinner table in the aisle however. The food was actually pretty decent, although I do think you can get better sushi elsewhere. Wagyu nigiri & fried duck bao buns were good. Service was slow, & just not what we expected for our anniversary dinner, especially after experiencing other restaurants in London that contributed a great level of thought & care into our reservation/occasion. We were offered a bar table at the end of the night to sit nearby the view which was nice, but overall doesn't make up for the experience. I think the views are absolutely stunning & worth visiting the restaurant for, but keep your expectations low on service/overall experience. Unfortunate because I'm sure that's not the experience Ramsey would have intended for this place. read more

Unbelievable experience. The food and service were top notch! I sat at the counter and got to watch them filet the whole tuna and prep while enjoying an amazing view of London from 60 stories up. The service was helpful and attentive without being pushy. The server made great recommendations as well. Overall the food was everything you would expect. The sushi was perfect and had amazing flavors. The fried chicken was perfectly done and very tasty as well. read more

The ambiance is great. Super sexy place. The food was pretty good and I'd give it alone a 3.5-4. The 2 Star rating is largely because of the service. Horrible! The server was slow, not attentive. We sat for so long without any orders being taken. Our large table was never cleaned. We were never asked if we wanted anything additional (drink, food, etc.) And now we've been waiting for at least 25 minutes for our check. But if they would've come to check on us perhaps he would know we're finished. Just awful. Would not recommend. read more

Food 4.0/5.0 Service 1.5/5.0 Value 1.5/5.0 Decor 4.5/5.0 Overall 4.0/5.0 The food is decent, but very much not Asian. The service isn't unfriendly, but feels very understaffed... not sure if it's a staffing issue or a process issue. They seem overly incentivized to push you to order, which is a bit unbecoming. The view is obviously very good, but overall this is a meh for me. read more

I went here with a group of colleagues. They had picked the spot, and I was looking forward to trying a Gordon Ramsay restaurant since I've never went to one before. First off, this place looks posh. Dark and sleek, I admittedly felt underdressed for the occasion. The group decided to go with the signature menu. My thoughts on the menu: SALTED EDAMAME: OK. I mean, it doesn't really change no matter where you get it. YELLOWTAIL TARTARE: Very good. I was never impressed with caviar before, but this worked for me. BABY SQUID: OK. I thought they overcooked it because it was a bit chewy. Good seasoning though. SUSHI SELECTION: Good. The fish is fresh. Not sure if the rolls were expertly prepared BONITO FRIED DUCK LEG BAO: Good. Sort of a neat spin on different asian influences. MUSHROOM TEMPURA: OK. It was a bit on the tough side. SCALLOPS: Very good. I felt this was the most elegant dish of the night. Simple ingredients prepared to perfection. KOREAN SPICED BLACK COD: OK. A different take on a miso marinated black cod, but not sure if gochujang is really an improvement RIBEYE: Very good. Cooked to a perfect medium rare. EGG FRIED RICE: OK. A bit too "wet" for a fried rice. DESSERT: OK. They had run out of their original dessert, so they substituted with another apple cake dessert that was ok. Service was pretty good. Attentive and professional, so no complaints Overall, I was OK with the meal. Some dishes were more successful than others. Was it worth the cost? No, not really. read more

Obviously, the first attraction is the location and the view. What an incredible experience. Having watched many Gordon Ramsey shows, it was imperative that I eat at one of his establishments. If Lucky Cat is an indication of the quality and ambiance, sign me up for more of these. Everything I had on the special lunch menu was superb. See picture for my express lunch option of the salted edamame, Umi, and for dessert, mochi. Having eaten in down home to 5 star restaurants, this rates with the best. read more

I went on a mission to eat here, even though one exists here in Miami. With that being said, let's start with the positives; top notch customer service! The ambiance is nice to go solo, on a date or with a group. Very clean and beautiful spot that has great attention to detail. When it came to the meal, I thought it could've been more fresh as it pertains to the temperature of the meal and what you got for 35 pounds. The bento box had rice that was crunchy and soft. The edamame needed to be cooked slightly less, to add the crunch factor. The flavors were a 5/5 but the temperature lacked and that's (along with my earlier statement) why my overall review was a 4/5. I would still return. Check them out and enjoy! read more

I'm going to need more stars for this one. Wow! Set a reservation about two months ahead of time considering it would be Christmas / Hanukkah. We showed up about 20 min early but they were able to seat us immediately. We were created by our server for the choice of still or sparking water then immediately approached by someone else for our drinks. We ordered several items off the menu. Kyoto cucumbers, tomatoe salad, sashimi, lo lobster bster roll, egg fried rice, GFC chicken and then the ribeye. Highly recommend the sashimi. That was some of the. Est I have ever had. The tuna melted in your mouth. The egg fried rice is a must as it is one of their signature dishes. The entire meal was amazing. We topped it off with dessert as well. This is a fantastic restaurant and I would highly recommend. read more

(review is for Bishopsgate location, I dont know why its not in here) .. It took us 4 months with constant efforts and attempts to get into contact with support to issue us a refund after a disastrous visit. (which the refund was nothing but cheap and incorrect given the situation) .. Everything from the poor service, rude staff, late food, spilled hot soy sauce on belongings, and negligence over a missing ring. It was extremely disappointing. The manager on duty ignored several emails and pleas from us even after providing his contact information. DO NOT GO HERE! One of the worst services as well as customer support. read more

Terrible service. I had to leave the table to ask to order. Food is okay, but not worth the hype. Support something local instead.

Worst restaurant I've ever been to. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place. Food is extremely disappointing and disgusting! Especially for the price! Gordon Ramsey you have failed read more

What an amazing view! We ordered the signature tasting. The food was just ok...the tartare stole the show from our table(6 of us total). We do recommend the sea bass, tempura mushrooms, the rib eye was good but the sauce was not good. There was a 25 minute gap in the delivery of our food. @Gordon Ramsey not sure if the quality of the food was not to the best quality due to who seemed to be the chef visiting this table 3 times. Overall the food was not worth the price and we could have gotten the same view from the Shard! read more

We didn't have reservations so we had drinks and apps in the bar area. The bar area itself is worth the visit. First off it had a very cool vibe, live DJ, moody feel and an Asian lounge feel. There's a small bar snack menu and full bar. We got the pea guacamole and the California roll. Both were very tasty. Our drinks included an aperol spritz and cosmopolitan. The views were spectacular, you can see all sides of the city from the bar located on the 60th floor! So happy we stopped in, a sexy, slick place for seriously good drinks and great small bites. read more

The restaurant left us wanting far more. Yes, the food was tasty, but the staff need to try a lot harder. Never have I been to a place where the staff looked down on us so blatantly. From the moment we walked in, it felt like we were an inconvenience rather than guests. Even after it took more than two hours for our rice to arrive, we were only met with mediocre apologies and no sense of urgency to make things right. Throughout our meal, we felt ignored. It was nearly impossible to get anyone's attention, and when we did, the responses were curt and dismissive. We had children with us, and not once did the staff try to accommodate them or even acknowledge their presence, which made the entire experience feel even colder. I would not call this place family-friendly at all, despite it being located within a Marriott property. You would expect a certain standard of service in a hotel restaurant, but this fell far below. Would I go back? Honestly, no. There are plenty of other restaurants in London that will happily serve you with a smile and treat you like a valued customer. This place needs to wake up and realize it will only survive if it keeps its diners happy. Great food alone is not enough when the service leaves you feeling unwelcome and disappointed. Until they change their attitude, I would strongly recommend taking your business elsewhere. read more

My boyfriend and I came to London to visit for a few days, and we were very eager to try Gordon Ramsay's restaurant. Of course, Gordon Ramsay has incredibly high standards for how a restaurant should run, so we were both curious to see what it's like. We signed up for the Omakase experience and they sat us in the appropriate section at the sushi bar. The waiter gave us menus, which confused my partner and I, and we kindly explained that we were here for the Omakase experience and probably wouldn't need a menu. She seemed confused and insisted that we look at the menu, so my partner and I ordered the Chef's Table, thinking it's as close to omakase as we can get, and we're still open for a good time. Throughout the night we both ordered drinks, and when the waiter asked if I would like another and I said yes, she came back with a drink that was clearly not the drink I ordered already. At this point my partner and I are bemused that the restaurant is messing up so badly, and another waitstaff comes over and apologizes for the incorrect drink and brings back another drink that is also, clearly, not the drink I originally ordered. The food itself was pretty good, but unfortunately not comparable in quality to the other restaurants we ate at during our trip. Two thirds of the way through our meal, a staff member who appeared to be the floor manager or a higher supervisor notices us and asks us if we're here for the omakase. We explain that we were, and he asks us if we would still like the Omakase. We politely decline because the Chefs Table is an enormous amount of food and also pretty expensive, but he tries to insist. After we decline again, he offers one free meal voucher for the next time we visit. Now, I don't know if there are other ways to compensate an incorrect meal, but my partner and I both have American accents and I can't help but wonder if he made that offer knowing we were tourists. The final critique I have is that the bathrooms are not advertised as same sex. I was really startled when my partner came over and washed his hands next to me, and I think I would've been a little nervous if it was a man I didn't know. I have no issues with same sex bathrooms, but I do wish it was advertised. There was also a restroom attendant, and from what I know they are supposed to offer you a hand towel and you tip them for their service. This attendant did not make eye contact, smile, or talk. Everyone has bad days, but I thought it was a little odd. Overall, I had a good time but only because I enjoy being anywhere with my partner. We both agreed it was a bad experience but it makes for a fun story because Gordon Ramsay is known for being so critical of restaurant management. I don't know if Lucky Cat is always like this, or if there was new staff, but the stacked mistakes and the inefficient staff seemed inappropriate for the price we paid. I hope my story helps out anyone who is interested in dining here at least! read more

The lucky cat was an amazing experience. Our server Mo was one of the highlights of our meal. He was extremely attentive, he was very friendly with great banter, and you can tell her really appreciates the flavors in the food and respects the dishes he presents. He was just great and added such an amazing aspect to my family and I's dinner. The ambiance is great, very moody, dark with red and a good vibe. All of our drinks were pretty tasty, and they were the only thing we ordered that took a bit of a wait. As far as food goes: Duck Bao: 1000000/10 this was the best dish all night, super moist and flavorful and the crunchy bits of duck were insane. We ended up getting another order because we cleared the first one so fast Mushroom dumpling: 8/10 very flavorful and would recommend if you like mushrooms! GFC: 9/10 super tasty, the pickle adds a perfect crunch and lightness to the already flavorful dish Tempura cauliflower: 10/10, it is hard to make cauliflower good, and we were fighting over the last piece, the sauce is so good as well Egg fried rice: 11/10, the presentation is awesome with the description of all the ingredients and the cook, the flavors are so deep and unlike anything I've ever had before, again we got a second order after we crushed the first one Ribeye: 8/10, solid ribeye, on the smaller side and could use some salt but to be fair I didn't use the chimichurri which probably would've added that bite I was missing I didn't eat the fish dishes but my family said all the sushi/nigiri they ate were great! Mochi: can't go wrong, a great fresh way to end the night Overall our experience here was amazing. Again, Mo made this great restaurant even better with his service and great hospitality. He is a great guy and this restaurant is lucky to have him! 10/10 would come back read more

Lucky Cat - Wonderful wine selection - Asian Fusion Near Me - London, XGL

Can't Decide If It's A Restaurant Or A Club I had dinner at Lucky Cat November 11th, 2025. There's no doubt this place has some of the best views in the city - and the food was awesome - but I couldn't get over how loud the restaurant was. I get it, a DJ is part of the vibe, but my Apple watch kept going off giving me warnings about the high decibel level - which stayed over 80dBA the whole time I was there. That's too loud to have a comfortable conversation at dinner. To put it in perspective, the UK Control of Noise at Work Regulations require that employees wear hearing protection if their workplace is louder than 80dBA. Menu highlights that our group really enjoyed were the sweet and sour prawns (we ordered more after tasting them!), the baby chicken and the egg fried rice. read more

The service, food and view of the city was impeccable. The sushi and mushroom tempura was amazing. I went two nights in a row. I can't wait to go back. read more

Came in because 1. I love Gordon Ramsey and 2. Asian fusion food is always perfection! The overall vibe/ambiance of the Lucky Cat is very dark and romantic. Great sport for a small group dinner or even a date night. Service wise the staff was very sweet and our waitress was attentive and made some nice recommendation on the more popular items. They defiantly do not rush you so you can have a very relaxed dining experience which is nice. In terms of food; the duck boa was good and the egg fried rice stole the show for us. I did think the sushi options were a bit on the boring side and very limited overall. The nigiri was good, but I would expect great quality for this caliber of a restaurant. Overall would say this is a good spot, but when I think of a Gordon Ramsey restaurant I just expect a little more. Food was good, but I wasn't overwhelmed by it overall. As a whole Lucky Cat is good. read more

well i have to be honest, my wife loved it, view perfect, food pretty good, service good, ambiance good, but my wife loves very expensive places anyway. This has to be mentioned, wine or any drink is not served by the bottle, they ask you to order by glass.. This way they charge you more. Their double shots are just a little less than a single and their single is well hardly noticeable. Their tequila comes not in tequila shot glasses and their limoncellos not in liquor glasses so you can never estimate how much they pour for you and my god they pour less than half. I would have been very happy to have an honest measure of a drink and be charged an arm and a leg for it rather than be taken as an idiot . Change the bar man or your drink policy and People like me come back server was very good read more

If you love having a blast of flavor and taste when you eat, you will love this restaurant! The ambiance of "Lucky Cat" was great as well! The view from the 60th floor was amazing! The waiters and waitresses gave great service! I think our waitress was Anna Maria. All the dishes are Asian inspired. I recommend ordering the spicy edamame, the GFC, and the egg fried rice. They are very accommodating as well. My Mom asked which dishes would have low or no salt and they went through the whole menu with things crossed off, recommended ways to order it (i.e. the salmon with lemon oil, and recommended things to order. Definitely go to this Gordon Ramsay restaurant when in London! read more

We were celebrating my 9 year old daughter's birthday, and she wanted sushi. Despite her age, she has traveled the world and dined at many Michelin star restaurants, so we thought Lucky Cat would satisfy her sushi craving on this special occasion. I truly feel that despite the food being satisfactory, we overplayed for the experience. We arrived to find our table not ready so were sat at a bar table and were handed drink menus, but no one came to greet us or so much as offer us water. After about 20 minutes, our table was ready. The dining room was beautiful and our table was set nicely. My daughter enjoyed the tiny gold cat where the chopsticks were set. Many tables remained empty after we were seated. The hostess asked if we would like water, and someone came to pour us 4 glasses promptly. After that, we couldn't figure out who was going to attend to our table. Servers kept flying by our table avoiding eye contact with us. Another 20 minutes or so went by and we got the attention of what looked like the sommelier. He asked if we wanted wine and we said no, cocktails, he gave us a look of disappointment and said he would get someone. Finally without an introduction, a server came and asked if we were ready to order. We ordered cocktails and mocktails, which were delicious and refreshing. He returned to ask if we were ready to order food, so I went ahead and ordered all courses at once for the table even though the rest of the table had gone to the bathroom. Approximately 1 hour into our reservation time, we had received spicy edamame and GFC chicken for a table of 4. It felt like we had received rations. The chicken was great, as per the reviews, but the portion was small, about 2 bites each, and the edamame was bland and needed salt. After another 20 minutes, the server must have seen our distress and brought us cucumbers and pea guacamole to share on the house, since "the tray takes long to prepare." These two were actually delicious and satisfying. Finally our Zanmai sushi tray arrived and had a delicious, fresh variety. The tuna in a leaf could be done better, too much cumin, but the flavors of the California roll and wagyu were spot on. As we finished the sushi tray, our order for short rib, pork belly and fried rice, which was prepared table side, arrived as well as a second bottle of water. At this point we were nearly 2 hours into our reservation time. The short rib (1 rib) was tender and delicious, but the sauce over it was reduced so much the salt was overwhelming. Removing the sauce and eating with rice helped. The pork belly was crispy and delicious. The rice was properly seasoned and had great flavor. It was my daughter's birthday, which we had indicated on our reservation, but by this time we were so disappointed and tired we didn't even want to get dessert. The server did hear me tell my daughter we would sing happy birthday at the hotel, and he arrived a short while later with a candle in a mochi donut hole. We got to sing happy birthday and she enjoyed the donut hole, which was a nice touch. We didn't complain, as I am one to give every opportunity for redemption, but over all, I felt 408£ was overpriced for the service and wait time and food I could have gotten from any Asian fusion restaurant. And to rub salt in the wound, the table across from us had the servers hugging the diners and checking in frequently. So it was not for lack of effort for others, who must have been well known to the staff. I should have read the poor reviews thoroughly before deciding to go for the name and spending so much for a less than satisfactory experience. read more

Lucky Cat - birthday treat - Asian Fusion Near Me - London, XGL

Some hits and some misses for this Gordan Ramsey's asian inspired restaurant. The meal started off great. The venue is beautiful, the staff friendly, the seats large and the table spacious. Our server recommended 3 plates each and we did just that leaving very full. Our first few plates were delicious although couldve used some more salt. Our monkfish and bacon skeweres were wonderfully fragant and juicy, the ceviche was a great medley of fish and fruit, and our bokchoy was perfectly crunchy and sufficiently saucy. But as our main courses hit the table it was very lackluster. The black cod was overly sweet and demanded the lime that came on the plate but was still a little too much. The szechuan beef had no spice and tasted of just butter and chili oil. They were both cooked well but not flavored to the standard we'd wanted from our celebrity chef. The portions were quite generous given the prestige of the place however. It seemed like we were tag teamed by multiple servers and the lack of coordination left us feeling forgotten between shifts. In the end my partner and I decided that this place was still good, but with our very high expectations we were left a little disappointed. read more

A hip place I think great for drinking and having fun with friends; not really the best environment for enjoying the food. The ambiance was loud music, dark and loud conversation. I think it's great for celebrations. We went there because we loved Hell's Kitchen and wanted to try Gordon Ramsay's Asian cuisine. The food was good and presentation was beautiful. We had baby squid, nigiri selection, grilled broccolini, Thai stone bass, baby chicken and egg fried rice. Baby squid was fried like fried calamari but using the babies. The coating was perfect but lack of salt. Nigiri selection was the best dish of the night! Perfect rice temperature, great fish and on point torched. Grilled broccolini was well seasoned and presented but a bit on the greasy side. Still a very tasty dish though. Thai fish was delicious with a little kick from the green curry. I wish this dish comes with some rice to finishing up the yummy sauce. Baby chicken was super tender but carful with the tiny bone. Very flavorful dish. Egg fried rice was the only dish that was disappointed. It was a bit too salty and with the soft egg blended in at the end, the fried rice became too soggy. It's more like the Korean bibimbap than fried rice. Service was not my favorite part here. Our first server ditched us because we studied the menu for too long for him. We were first time there and tried to study the menu since we were suggested to share our dishes, we need to talk about what each other like. But he didn't want to wait so we were given to a very nice girl who was a bit more patient. It's a fast paced place but we shouldn't be feeling rushed. read more

Dirt cheap, reliable Chinese food. I've heard that the noodle dishes are way better than the ramen and I've only ordered the noodle dishes so not necessarily looking to change my order. I generally go with the large portion and it's enough for a very hungry person or two less hungry people. I usually get the vermicelli and it's literally like £8 for a massive portion. My only complaint is that it's hard to meet the deliveroo minimum. They also have a few other noodle choices like chow mein, ho fun, and udon. I've had the udon and it's good but the vermicelli has been my favourite. I usually get a small side like the kimchi or seaweed salad and it's very tasty as well. The noodles are definitely the way to go though. It's always packaged well and my order has been very consistent. Will absolutely order again. read more

I recently visited Gordon Ramsay's Lucky Cat in London, and while the food was absolutely outstanding, the service and management left much to be desired. The venue itself is stunning, and the dishes were a true delight, showcasing the high level of culinary expertise you'd expect from Ramsay's brand. However, the experience was marred by a lack of proper service and attention to detail. Our server seemed to be nowhere to be found most of the time, and we had to flag him down whenever we needed something. To make matters worse, the management--particularly the "suits"--spent the entire evening hanging out in the bar area, completely oblivious to the guests' needs. Interestingly, the table beside us, who arrived 20 minutes later, was served at the same time with the same server. This lack of coordination made the experience feel rushed and impersonal. On a positive note, the wine sommelier was fantastic, offering great recommendations and contributing positively to our evening. Overall, while the food at Lucky Cat is undeniably exceptional, the service and management need serious attention. For a restaurant at this price point, you expect a much more cohesive experience. If they can get their service back on track, it could truly be something special. Until then, I'd recommend waiting until they sort out these issues before spending your hard-earned money and time here.I will say the lovely young lady at the host stand could not have been more hospitable and understanding of our experience! read more

The food and drinks were fantastic - no questions there. Big opportunity for service to be improved - beer was not delivered for 20 minutes and needed to find a manager to request, food should have come out gradually per the servers guidance but everything came at once over an hour later, and the champagne that was "offered" to celebrate our special night at the start of the evening had a special price tag. I never complain online but this night left me with a bad taste. read more

Lucky cat has a lot of amazing Asian tapas. Your can't go wrong with any, but the JFC chicken and pork belly skewers left something to go with my mind and mouth. The yuzu limencelo was a nice drink to put someone in the mood. The ambiance is stunning as you can see from my picture that I posted in the front. read more

Food was good and the atmosphere is terrific. Service was a bit slow. We went for lunch and it took close to two hours. We ordered from the "express lunch". The restaurant explains they designed their items to be shared with the table and should be ordered accordingly. Quality of the food was good, but seemed overpriced. read more

Made a reservation for 5 people for a Tuesday afternoon at this upscale restaurant. Not many people inside as we were greeted immediately and given our table despite being early. Considering our group size, decided to order from the "A La Carte" menu in order to share as much as possible. Some of the items of note: Spiced Herdwick Lamb Chops (£25) - three pieces of beautifully glazed lamb chops alongside chili sauce and tofu cream. Moist interior and seared well on the outside. Salt & Pepper Prawns (£12) - a small batch of fried prawns, not oily at all and served with a strong cashew curry dip. Spicy Edamame (£6.50) - a large bowl of soybeans covered in a thick chili paste. Spicy as advertised without being overwhelming. Delica Pumpkin Tempura (£9) - hearty pumpkin that's deep fried and paired alongside a wasabi sauce. Good kick with the added wasabi and properly filling. Service here started off well then tapered off towards the end as they prepared for dinner service. Worth the visit and price-point for at least one meal. read more
