Good recommendation on the meat to choose depending on your taste or cooking preference. Really good quality meat, amazing dessert (apple and pear tatin to share was really good) and good cocktail as well (Elder75)
Thanks for leaving a review and for letting us know you had such a wonderful time in our Argentine Steakhouse and we're really happy to hear that you enjoyed your steaks so much! I must agree with you on that note - our Elder 75 cocktail is refreshingly delicious and Tart Tatin is my favourite. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon for more amazing steak and Argentinian inspired cocktails!
Visited to celebrate sons 21st birthday, the food was excellent, good service and great ambience in the restaurant. Had to wait for wine to be chilled and thought waitress could have explained more about the steaks. Overall great experience, thanks for the cake, left with food coma, would definitely recommend.
Thank you so much for leaving a review and letting us know you have had a great birthday dinner! We passed the comments to the waitress and she will definitely put even more effort in making sure her service is outstanding. We hope to see you again in the near future for another celebration meal, or to welcome you back if you would like to try another one of our many amazing cuts of beef and perhaps have another food coma! ;)
Excellent staff and food. Would highly recommend this restaurant chain
Thank you very much for your awesome feedback on our super service and our beautiful Aberdeen Angus beef that comes from La Pampa, Argentina.

Great meal and great service as always but would be great if they brought humitas back to the menu:-)

When we first arrived we were kindly taken into back area from our original table. The noise was excessive and not needed to have a nice evening.

Perhaps you would like to visit us on the 9th of October for our Big Circus Brunch filled in with performances. We hope to welcome you back at Gaucho Chancery Lane soon!
Beautiful food but quite pricey - our waiter made us feel slightly unwelcome due to mine and my partner’s age (18 and 19) as if she didn’t think we belonged. Nice surprise for my partner’s birthday. Overall a lovely meal with lots of effort put in, lovely ambience.
Great service, amazing food.

Honestly- the best Gaucho’s that I have been to. The service was excellent, the food was tasty, the cocktails were well presented and tasted good. The waitress Vanessa was definitely one of the most friendly and attentive waitresses ever!
Dear Julia. Thank you for leaving our team here at Gaucho Chancery Lane such a raving review. Smiles are on all of our faces reading this review together, especially Vanessa who was your waitress. We are very proud of our bespoke service and the ability to deliver the perfect steak, and we are glad we were able to cook one exactly how you like it.

We do take pride in our bespoke service, and we surely will pass your compliments onto Lucia. If you are looking to join us for leisure too we definitely recommend our new offering Beef&Bottle, which is unlimited steak and wine for 90 minutes, available every Thursday. A great way to unwind before the busy week ahead!
Good food , steaks were all good and so were the sides lovely bread to start . Little ambience, no atmosphere , hardly anyone in and the layout is not great , not the best gaucho actually probably the worst in that respect . Our service was ok but rushed considering no one else there then not great in that respect.
The only reason for the 4 stars on the food and drink is because you have stopped the tender stem broccoli!! Other than that it was amazing!
Hi Sam, thanks very much for leaving us such a lovely review. Our team here at Gaucho Chancery Lane are super happy to see that you enjoyed the whole experience with us so much and can't wait to have you back. We are taking suggestions about round tables on board, and we will see what can be done about in the future. Hope to see you soon!

To start your next evening off with us I recommend trying one of my new favourite dishes: Sweet Potato and Provolone Empanadas! Looking forward to welcoming you back!
Food was rushed and poor food Wouldn’t recommend to a friend
Having tried various other Gaucho restaurants, we had high expectations for this one - and we were not disappointed. The service was prompt and friendly throughout and the food was delicious, as always. We enjoyed the sausage platter (my husband's favourite followed by sirloin steaks cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly and we would recommend any of the Gaucho restaurants to family and friends.

Good food expertly cooked
Thank you for leaving a review. We hope you had a wonderful time in our Argentine Steakhouse and especially hope that you enjoyed our meat! We hope to see you again in the near future - maybe next time you'd like to try our 1.2kg sampler which consists of 4 prime cuts of our Argentine beef weighed at 300g each. See you soon!
Food was good but expensive (£100 a head for me and my wife), but it was way too noisy, driven by the group of drunken men in the function room next to the main restaurant, singing and shouting. Had the kids with us for a 7.30 sitting, but there were no other kids in there - maybe more of an adult only time for this restaurant.
Service was slow. Food had too much salt. No value for money - portions small. The restaurant doesn’t recreate the Argentinean meal experience. Compulsory service fee not appreciated.
Still great service but the food was disappointing and definitely not to the same standards as pre-pandemic. The sides portions are smaller and more expensive. The meat was over cooked and under seasoned and seemed to be of a lower quality. It’s a shame as we have always loved coming here!
Gauchos is known for their steak so I should have gone for that, unfortunately I went for the pasta which was very bland and tasteless. I liked the cow hide chairs that spun round, other than that it was all a bit underwhelming. Probably won’t go there again..
The experience was worth it. Enjoyed every minute, I will be come back again.
Thank you for your kind words. Our team here at Gaucho Chancery Lane are very happy to see such a raving review on our steaks. Smiles are on all of our faces reading this review together! We do offer a fantastic 3-course set menu for £27.50 per person that is available every day from 12 pm-3 pm, I'd definitely suggest trying it next time you join us. Look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Anniversary
nice food and staff, but a very dated and unwelcoming decor, it felt a little like a cross between an 80s nightclub and a whetherspoons.
the steak and food in general was very good.
it wouldn't take much to elevate this restaurant to a standard worthy of the price and to feel like something special rather than functional and dated.
Hi Paul, thanks very much for leaving your much-appreciated feedback. We're very happy to hear you enjoyed our food and service. I am sorry to hear you didn't like the decor of our restaurant. I hope you will be happy to hear that we are getting a little refurbishment at the end of August. Perhaps you would like to come back again then. I would love to have the chance to welcome you and your guests back and show you the true Gaucho experience. Please ask for me - Edyta, next time you're in and I'll see that your experience is perfect.
Service was really helpful
Food was lovely and portions were good
Even managed to see England bring it home
So all in all good evening
Hi Jack! Thank you for leaving us a 5-star review! Our team here at Gaucho Chancery Lane look forward to welcoming you back for another exceptional experience. We will be showing even more sports events in Chancery Lane, including Rugby Lions games! Looking forward seeing you soon!
Noise level high as England vs Ukraine on in upper gallery but all good natured! Offered change of venue beforehand which we declined so everything done to provide choice and make us comfortable. A couple of items were forgotten or late to table but food was utterly superb as usual (we’ve eaten at Gaucho in Chancery Lane, Birmingham and Amsterdam). It was such a pleasure to eat out again for a birthday celebration after all the covid restrictions. Thanks to all for such a lovely evening 🙂
Hi Xandau, thanks for leaving us a 5-star review! It brings a big smile to my face to hear that your experience was great, for any mishaps or mistakes I can only apologise. Come and join us back at Gaucho Chancery Lane to try another one of our awesome Argentinian steaks that come from La Pampa, Argentina. To start your next evening off with us I recommend trying one of our new empanadas - Chicken & Chorizo, Sweet Potato & Provolone or Jack Fruit & Aji Molido. Looking forward to welcoming you back! Please ask for me - Edyta, next time you're in and I'll see that your experience is perfect.
The evening was very pleasant, the restaurant was very busy and good to see, the food was excellent as always
Thank you
Having been to Gaucho Picadilly, I had high hopes for Chancery Lane. It looked stunning, but that was about it. Service was slow and odd. Side plates from the starters cluttered the table the whole meal, yet someone tried to clear unfinished dishes while we were still eating!?! Dessert was also a waste of money. The ice cream was old and iced, with huge chunks of ice and no flavour. The sticky toffee pudding tasted mass produced and was unevenly heated, like it been microwaved. Overall, it tainted what should have been a lovely birthday celebration. The highlight was my steak, but for a £350+ bill, that's not saying much.
