I can’t quite explain how dreadful an evening we had. The staff couldn’t have cared less they were overwhelmed and had surrendered by 6pm! We were advised that we should expect no service on show nights. This isn’t the usual experience I’ve had at gauchos but it certainly was the most memorable. Poor food, absent service and Ill mannered staff.

Service was good. Do not like the new decor. Was a regular customer for years. No way as classy, you no longer feel you’re sitting in an upmarket venue. Probably wouldn’t return to that one which is a shame.

Food is 10/10, service is 10/10, if you’re not sure what steak to get then they’ll bring them all out and explain where they come from and how they cook it and also advise you on how to get it cooked.

Food was good, we had to get a steak redone, which was done with out question so we though the service was great. The steaks were good, but not great, so hence value for money rating. The last time we dined here (2021) it was excellent, so we are always wary about returning to see if the result was the same. I think the issue is the craming of covers into the resturant rather than quality, but overall ok.

Poor value for money . Both our steaks were good but accompanying vegetables were poor especially the chips and honey mixed veg .Deserts were just okay but nothing to enthuse about.when a bill comes to £150 for 2courses and a bottle of sparkling water including a £20 service charge I expect something a lot better

Will never return to Gaucho. We had drinks in downstairs bar, waiting for 2 more for our group of 4 when we told to go upstairs to second floor to eat and carry existing 2 drinks with us. Arrived to cram packed room which was more like Butlins dining hall than previous Gaucho we have visited. Too many people were packed into boring loud room with zero atmosphere other than sense of get them fed and out.

The restaurant was very busy, which you would expect being in the 02, we go there every time we visit the 02. However, on this occasion, it was too busy, not enough staff, food was delayed in coming out, sides didn't come out at the same time as the mains, the main meal was then colder, I felt rushed and was disappointed with the whole experience. Gaucho has a high end brand name, so you expect a high end level of service and food, to which we did not receive on this particular evening

Very nice food and excellent service. I would like to see more options of wine by the glass as my husband doesn't drink red wine so I felt limited with my choices. The meat was delicious and we really enjoyed the Steak Tartar starter and the Gaucho Sampler platter.

Starter of prawns was cold. My partner and I both ate at completely separate times due to cold food being served and returned to the kitchen. Food was below average and for the price completely not worth it. Service was also terrible until they wanted us to pay the bill!

Lots of new staff, was offered water before we’d even sat down. The new staff were still finding their feet so wasn’t didn’t have knowledge of the menu, especially the Sunday roast which we had to ask for. As we visit this venue often could see that the staff was not as attentive as previously

Bit of an odd layout. Was surprised to be guided out of what looks like the restaurant, to a side passage with steps up to another restaurant and then a lift up to where we actually ate. But once we were in and seated it was a lovely experience. Staff were very attentive and service was prompt. Prices not exactly what I call value but pretty much as expected for a nice steak restaurant. Food was nice. A tad salty in some dishes but I'm not a fan of salt. Generally a very good experience.

As expected, prices were extortionate for starters, mains and sides. Starters and mains portion sizes did not really reflect good value for money. However the food was very tasty and, knowing Gaucho’s as we do, we expected to pay a lot of money. The cost of dessert “Don Pedro” was also too much for what it was - a larger sprinkling of chopped walnuts (not walnut dust) might have helped. I would recommend Gaucho’s to friends, but I would have to forewarn them about portion sizes and cost. Waiter Carlos was very nice and attentive, noting that we were celebrating our 32 year anniversary.
