Fish and Chips
Angela A.

Absolutely amazing and fresh. Best dinner and fish & chips I had in London. The ambience was nice and the service was excellent.

Peterhead Haddock & House Chips
Nakia A.

So happy I stumbled upon this place as I was exploring Soho! If you're in the area craving seafood, Randall & Aubin is a must! Like any typical tourist, I was on the hunt for classic fish & chips while I was visiting London. The restaurant is a little small so I'd recommend a reservation. The food was amazing!! We ordered the R&A Peterhead haddock, classic moules marinieres and prawns. Service was a bit slow but the food made up for it. Couldn't recommend this restaurant enough!

Great location and small - repeat small space. We were visiting during Christmas and it had festive decorations. We got the seafood tower and I am not sure that I would go that again. Lots of shrimp and whelk and for me a little goes a long way. Since the seating is tight, I would be cautious where they try to seat you because they have chairs at locations that are not suitable for dining.

Halibut special
Deanna W.

Didnt have a reservation on a busy Sunday and they were able to accommodate us for a table for 2. Really fresh seafood and delicious french onion soup! Got the Dover sole and Halibut specials and they were cooked to perfection. Would definitely recommend!

SoHo's French spot
Francesca C.

Delicious and cozy spot in Soho. Excellent service, the food was beyond good, from the bread our main course. The onion soup was very tasty and not salty at all (many places over season it with salt because can't get a good flavor with herbs and condiments and ends up being just a salt soup!). Same with the clam chowder who happened to be extremely delicious and not super fishy! Price/value, totally reasonable and worthy of visiting more often if I lived in London :( Keeping this place in mind for my next visit to this amazing city!

Last night a lobster saved my life, last night a lobster saved my life with a sooooong... Okay, it wasn't singing, it was perfectly cooked and sliced in half on my plate. But it was delicious and it made for the most perfect dinner. Along with scallops with capers and fresh lime and a dressed crab this was a dinner date to remember. I love The Little Mermaid, I love Flounder and Sebastian - but seriously, when they taste this good I'd be first in line to see the plopped in the hot pot. Snuggled in the heart of Soho, opposite Cox, Cake and Kink, Randall & Aubin is something of a legend with a huge local following. There are beautiful gays serving and beautiful gays flowing out the door as well as seafood fans and some suit types. They have great window seats that are perfect for people watching and a great wine list, although it was missing a Chablis. This was a date spot for me, and it was pretty amazing. We ordered three main courses and one starter between two of us and while away a spring evening over a lovely bottle of plonk. When you are here expect to be pushed and shoved a bit, expect to pay over the odds but love it. This is London.

Delicious Niçoise salad in a cute spot! Busy and hustling on a Saturday night, and close to theatres and clubs.

Mixed oysters :D
Christine Y.

Love love love the oysters here!! You can taste the ocean when you slurp them down. We got the large mixed oysters (£16) and split it between 4 people. It was enough for everyone and we got to try a couple of French/England/Ireland oysters. Yummmm :D This place is known for the seafood so I would recommend going for the seafood entrees. If you're a girl with a small appetite like me or not super hungry, I would recommend sharing the entree with a friend. Entrees are around £20 so it can get kind of pricy if you order wine on top of that. We got the grilled sea bass. The fish was fresh and I liked the potatoes with curry sauce a lot - really unique. In the end we were really full but still ordered creme brûlée. It was on fire!! That was really cool but the actual taste wasn't so special (I've had better). There is usually a long line so come early. Not good for groups more than four people. The music is really loud so don't bring your children here. Overall, loved my experience here!!

Randall and Aubin is responsible for providing me with one of the funniest meals I have ever had. Situated in the middle of Soho we knew Randall and Aubin would be aiming to pull in the pink pound a little but in all seriousness I think this place out-gays Graham Norton dancing to the Scissor Sisters in Heaven Nightclub. When our waiter arrived to show us to our table it was impossible not to notice how ripped his mussels were. I say impossible because he was wearing a shirt at least two sized too small for him and none of the top buttons were done up. We walked past the giant disco ball which hangs in the middle of the room and climbed up on stools to reach our white marble table. It was at this point that the music kicked in and Kylie came on to serenade us with pop classics such as 'I should be so lucky' and 'Spinning Around'. It was hysterical and completely unlike any other restaurant I'd ever been to. I loved it! To eat I ordered the rotisserie chicken and my boyfriend the lobster. Although they were both very tasty, we did find them slightly over cooked and a little chewy. However, I would forgive Randall and Aubin anything for all the entertainment it gave us. A great night out!

Ashley D.

The food here is amazing! Seafood is outstanding. You also have to try the chicken. The owner takes such personal attention to each and every customer. One of my favorite late night spots in Soho.

Skate wing with rice, chicory and creamy pepercorn and shrimp sauce. Winner!

I went in 2 different times: saturday at 3pm and wednesday at 10am. Two completely different vibes. I tried the famous sandwich from the black pig, viral chocolate covered strawberries and bread ahead. Black pig - the best one sandwich: it was AMAZING!!! I was a bit scared to get this since i was by myself but let me tell you, it was not heavy as i expected it to be. Just delicious overall and would totally recommend. Chocolate strawberries: I love strawberries and chocolate but definitely think you can find cheaper alternatives anywhere in london. Bread Ahead: my new favorite pastry place. I pretty much got a donut from this place (not this location) everyday because the black currant cheesecake donut was that good. I got the tiramisu and crème brûlée donut which my brother liked and i wish i could've tasted them before they went bad but anyways, I would totally recommend the donuts from here! Their chocolate chips cookies are HUGE and delicious as well. This was probably one of my favorite markets!

My wife and I chose this place for our last dinner in London before heading back home to DFW. I had…read moreread about this restaurant in some top 10 lists for foodies visiting London and was dying to check it out. First, it's not in the busy part of London where you would expect a restaurant of this caliber to be but rather it is in a very blue-collar neighborhood on the south side of London. It is a VERY cozy place with only seven tables but that is how they keep the quality and experience so great. The decor is as if you are on an old fishing ship. Reservations are highly recommended but we got there right when they opened (7pm) and thankfully they let us have a table. After being seated the hostess showed us the days specials and they ranged from fantastic scallops to lobster with every choice as good as the last. My wife and I chose the Chef's Choice 8 course dinner. The dinner comprised of a delicious sardine sandwich followed by a fillet of night perch which was then followed by lobster that melted in your mouth. Then we had a pallet cleanser of a light peach sorbet with a shot of vodka poured over it. The meal resumed with a grilled piece of pork belly (I got the "meat" choice) while my wife had a grilled hallibut (she got the "fish" choice). The next course was a warmed cheese (I believe it was gruyere) in pastry accompanied by a small mixed green salad with aged balsamic. The dessert courses were a delicious crepe with creme bruille filling and the end course was a pear puree along with a chocolate pudding with a hint of mint. We loved this place even though the name sort of threw us off at first. When you hear "The Lobster Pot" I imagine a bunch of seniors getting off a day-tour bus to a casino at a truck stop or something but this experience was far from what I first imagined. I would highly recommend spending some of your tourist dollars here at this restaurant.

Kitsch sticky menus…read moreneeded a bit of explanation and if the menus change regularly (no oysters , but I'd rather they'd be off the menu than off in my stomach) then perhaps daily printed menus would work. A delightfully decorative place complete with seagulls singing sea shanty classics on loop. Terrified but glorious goldfish adorning the cabin window walls, really every maritime detail had been thought of, even staff in cabin costumes, it was as cheesy as the lobster Thermidor. So fun. I loved being bibbed up too, I like knowing things are gonna get messy. The Meli, a melee of seafood; half lobster, sea bass, spicy grilled perch, razor clam (touch over done), squid kebab (could've been flavoured more) but all in a sea of buttery champagne and avruga sauce. No tide could hold me back from wanting to lick my plate or use this as a moisturiser, oh my golly so delicious. It came served with enough perfectly cooked veg that my mother would approve of too. Soft butter, less surprise from the proprietor at our arrival and this place would have had a perfect score. Overall our waitress was lovely and the food was really darn good.

Portion was huge, and easily shareable. Delicious!! Service: It was ok. We waited in line for a really long time (more than an hour) but we were checked on from time to time. Once we were seated and ordered, no one really checked in, but we asked if we needed something. Ambiance: Cute outdoor seating. In door seating was okay. Reservations get to go into a back room which seemed nicer. Lovely side street in a crazy busy popular area. It's a solid 4.5 stars for what it is because the food was so good. I'd return. Tip: Make a reservation a couple of weeks in advance, or be prepared to wait...a long time...Or, skip the line to order takeaway and go enjoy your food!
