Najlepšie jedlo

Boli sme tam včera na večeri, ktorú som dostala ako narodeninový darček. Bolo to úžasné, jedlo bolo skvelé, personál úžasný a všetci veľmi milí. Naozaj sme si to užili, aj môj muž, ktorý nie je vegán bol nadšený. Môžem len odporúčať

Pros: Jedlo, Personál, Atmosféra

Cons: Nič

Worth every penny (if you do it once and only once)

Amazing experience. Every course was perfect and did not disappoint at all. The Non-alcoholic pairings were on point and the worry, that most wine pairings were going to be reds turned out to be unsubstantiated. They served one, very light red wine that tasted well, even to non likers. The staff was amazingly welcoming.

Amazing experience

We loved everything about this! We had the petit seven-course menu and everything was made gluten-free for me. The tortellini were probably the most underwhelming item, but the rest was truly amazing. The staff was super professional and great.

Pleased we visited, disappointing non alcoholic parings

This was a gift and on the “to go” list like Plates (before it got its first star).

It was a nice experience but not amazing, hushed tones in what felt like someone’s living room. Food as expected was good. The wine pairing was ok, the non alcoholic pairing was very bitter/ sour notes for the first course but they very good and allowed us to cancel it from their on.

Went with the smaller tasting menu for dinner and a fairly early reservation. Glad it exists but now the wow factor expected

Pros: Great as an option, New dishes but maybe a bit muted

Cons: Good but not great

Best food I’ve had

LOVED gauthier - food was amazing, no notes
I think the only reason this place isn’t Michelin is because of the speed of service, other than that it is fabulous

Truly phenomenal

A really amazing experience. It felt like you were dining in someone’s private living room in the middle of London. I went with some friends for my 10 year veganniversary and the chef even signed a card for me. Every dish was amazing. I can still remember all the flavors vividly. It’s pricey of course, but very worth it for a special occasion.

Wonderful!

100% vegan, fine dining somewhere that's vegan for the animals, exquisite flavours, fresh food, lots of creativity, attentive and professional staff, and in the centre of London - £65 isn't too bad. You'd be looking at 2 or 3 times that in Zurich.

I went here solo, before a trip to the theatre, and felt like a lovely treat to myself. Would highly recommend it if you're a foodie and appreciate good service. Even asked would you like still, sparking, or tap water. No qualms about ordering water out the tap from my maître d', s'il vous plait. :)

Great menu with fair prices

The menu was really good and the prices are quiet fair for such a restaurant and location. The menu includes vegetable dishes with less use of tofu etc. My personal favorite was the peas sorbet, which was amazing. Nevertheless, the taste of other main vegetables of each course could be worked out to become a bit more intense (e.g. asparagus). The knives could be more sharp.

Vegan Fine Dining

I booked Gauthier Soho as a surprise birthday treat for my partner and it didn’t disappoint. It feels like a private members club but welcoming and not stuffy. The staff and service were first class and they know you’re generally there for a special occasion so make it feel special. Although fine French cuisine isn’t my thing I really enjoyed it but most importantly my partner loved it, especially the wine pairing with the food.
It was the spring menu when we were there and we had the 6 course petit diner experience. As it was a big birthday celebration I had also ordered the birthday cake as an extra, this was absolutely divine. It was quite big so we took most of it away in a box! If you are able to visit regularly it’s worth signing up as you get special offers like 2 for 1 midweek etc. Whenever we get another trip to London planned we will definitely come back to try a different menu.

Amazing tasting menu!

Came here for my birthday at the end of last year. It was absolutely amazing. We had the tasting menu which was incredible - some of the best food I've had! Highlights would be the brioche buns and the vegan caviar!

Luxurious experience

We visited Gauthier Soho in September 2025 and had the small menu. We had never been in such a fancy white table cloth restaurant so it was a fun experience. The service was good and the food as well. We had messaged them about a celeriac allergy beforehand, and they had customized the celeriac dish with a lot of thought, which we appreciated a lot. Lovely experience!

Feels like private dining with so much attention to detail

Everything about Gauthier Soho is just flawless. Each course was so full of love, flavour and beautifully crafted. Everything from the table set up, to the courses was made with so much attention to detail.
You can really feel the passion and love that was put into the restaurant as it feels very private and like you are dining in a luxurious living room (with the fire place being my highlight). The waitresses were also so attentive and warm.
You won’t be disappointed going here.
And the best thing is that there is a new menu every season with valentines and NY specials.
Also big plus how much Alexis truly cares about animals and activism!

Exquisite Cuisine

First of all, I love what Chef Gauthier is doing in advocating for a fully plant-based lifestyle. We visited this restaurant for the Petit Diner, and were not disappointed. Every course was creative, inspired, and implemented to perfection. We loved the "brioche" course, which was in other words the best vegan croissant that I have ever had. All dishes were amazing, including three kinds of apple in the pre-dessert. Loved it all. There is a little room for improvement in the farewell. No thank you, no goodbye, and no one to open the door on the way out. I found that a little lackluster, considering people come from all around the world to savor the famous flavors and creative cooking. Perhaps appreciate the customer a bit more rather than just letting the food speak for itself.

Updated from previous review on 2025-12-30

Pros: Exactly as advertised:-), Creative, unique, inspired, Cosy atmosphere

Cons: Robotic service, especially at the end.

Thank you for your comment. I can see how you would say that without me sharing a little more context, and writing that would make the review longer and less relevant, as it was a minor observation. Generally, I loved the experience and all of the courses. I don't think it's entitled to have expectations for service at a fine dining establishment. I shared my experience of the restaurant and my subjective opinion.

Perfect place for a special occasion

Nice relaxed atmosphere, serving a beautiful refined tasting menu, the attention to detail and craft is an experience one should have at least once.

Pros: Craftsmanship, Thoughtful, Atmosphere

Cons: Spacing between dishes too long
