Beautiful, beautiful meal.

We had the full vegan tasting menu with the wine paring. The dishes were amazing from beginning to end. The service was impeccable. The whole dinner was a delight. It's wonderful to experience what chefs at this level can do with a vegan ingredient palate.

Pros: Outstanding flavors, textures and preparation., Careful

Absolutely perfect

I had the vegan tasting menu, and it’s hands down one of the best meals I’ve ever had. The food is french, creative and portion sizes are perfect. The atmosphere is classic and luxurious, so I recommend to dress up!

Perfect evening

Varied 8 course tasting menu. One or two dishes needed a little more salt for my liking but I do like salt! Excellent service, lovely wine. Deserves 5 star even if it had only one Michelin star

Pros: Vegan tasting menu, Cater for gluten free, Excellent service and knowledgeable sommelier

Cons: No downsides

Five star

Although the also serve non vegan that is changing soon to be fully vegan . This restaurant is amazing , the food is extremely well thought out to match amazing flavours - the presentation and attention to detail is fantastic as is the service . Am going back again next weekend and cannot wait . I’ve been to most of the higher end vegan restaurants in London and this is absolutely the best .

Pros: Beautiful surrounding , Every dish is of such high standard, Service is fantastic

Cons: None !

Superb

5* in my book. Plante tasting lunch menu was divine, each dish creatively crafted and oh so tasty. Service and atmosphere excellent, so good to be warmly welcomed as a vegan to a French white tablecloth restaurant for a special occasion type of meal.

Culinary experience

Impressed by 'faux gras', vegan dishes and service. The best vegan bread you'll try. Unique food presentation. Restaurant plans to go completely vegan within 18 months to 2 years.

A taste sensation

I’d give 5 stars if HappyCow would let me. An out of this world culinary experience - felt truly special, and they did vegan oh so well. We had the tasting menu and the food just kept coming - the vegan foie gras and the financier at the start and end of the meal, and the carrot tartar starter all really stood out. The staff made us feel special throughout.

Pros: Vegan haute cuisine, Delicious

Cons: Expensive - but worth it

Wonderful birthday treat

In London for a big birthday so we went for the "deluxe vegan tasting menu" which started with a glass of champagne and vegan foie gras followed by 5 savoury dishes with matching wines and 3 (small) desserts - and finally a birthday cake to take home. First class service with informed and friendly waiters who were happy to answer questions about the dishes and wines. The food was excellent though the birthday cake turned out to have very hard pastry.
Great news is that the restaurant plans to go completely vegan in the next year or two and in fact most of the diners we were sat near were also eating vegan.
TIP: sign up for their email newsletter as they sometimes offer a significant discount on gift vouchers which you can use for meals. We saved 20% !

Pros: Wonderful food, Good service

Cons: Very expensive

Excellent

The vegan tasting menu was actually recommended to me by a meat eater who had tried it with his vegetarian partner. Really enjoyed all the dishes - vegan foie gras was a surprise.

Pros: Full vegan menu, Delicious , Great service

Cons: Going to set you back a few bob

smells like pork...

The food is ok but the service is uptight, and the place has a very strong smell of pork and beef. I asked if we can be seated in a area where the odor was less strong, and the waiter said it’s impossible to change things around (even though we were one of the first to enter for lunch).

Upscale Michelin Star 8-Course Dinner is Spectacular

If you are looking for a truly upscale vegan dining experience, just go to Gauthier Soho. We recommend the wine pairing. The best vegan French cuisine is not in Paris, it’s in London. Alexis Gauthier is a vegan French chef who knows how to impress his customers. Make sure you check out this restaurant if you are in London.

amazing!

Went with my mum who had the omni tasting menu whilst I had the vegan, it was so nice to eat such amazing food alongside my mum we will definitely return when back in London!

It’s expensive but that’s the nature of a tasting menu.

Best food of my life (by far)

I had the vegan tastings menu, summer 2017. I'm kicking myself that I didn't take a photo of the menu because they change it seasonally and now I can't find it.

Every single piece of food that went into my mouth was a taste explosion. It blew me away.

This is, without a doubt, my number 1 favourite place to eat in the world. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. It was about 50 times nicer than the second best place I've ever eaten at.

My friend took photos and I'm waiting for her to send them to me so I can upload them. But it's really one of those things you need to eat. The presentation was fantastic but it's really the taste that is mind-blowing.

Pros: Best food I've ever eaten , Posh atmosphere (if you're into that) , Nice staff

Cons: Absolutely no cons.
