    Always a pleasure to eat at Gauchos. As the weather was fine we had the opportunity to eat outdoors.

    No option to have just meat gravy, only red wine gravy available. the wine flavour is not nice for children and not to my personal taste either. Also, frozen roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding. The mac and cheese was absolutely tasteless. tasted like a white sauce with no cheese flavour at all.

    Delicate pastry filled with creamy mascarpone or whipped cream, topped with powdered sugar and garnished with pomegranate seeds.
    Flatbread topped with melted cheese and sautéed mushrooms, garnished with fresh arugula for added flavor.
    Grilled steak with a smoky flavor, topped with a mix of fresh vegetables, served alongside crispy French fries and creamy macaroni and cheese.
    The menu features sustainable steaks, including the premium "Chateaubriand" with sauces and the "Gaucho Sampler" with various meats like Chorizo and Ancho, alongside specialty cuts such as "Ancho" and "Churrasco de Chorizo." Sides include sautéed broccoli with garlic and lemon zest and buttered lettuce with shallots and chive cream.

    Terrible Valentine's Day Experience: The restaurant has a prime location by the river, with easy access by various modes of transportation. We booked the Valentine's Day menu two weeks in advance for £110, which included an appetizer, main course, dessert, and wine to share. We arrived early for drinks, but there was no room at the bar, and the outdoor waiting area was uncomfortable, with the heat constantly shutting off. The restaurant was packed, which negatively impacted the experience. The tables were too close together, and the noise was excessive. The quality of the food was disappointing. The steaks were bland, and the chimichurri sauce didn't meet expectations. We were charged an excessive price for an extra steak, £52.50 instead of the additional £10 we expected based on the Valentine's Day menu. It was even higher than the price on their regular menu for 100g less. The stubborn manager didn't acknowledge the error in the menu and only offered a 15% discount after a long discu

    Lovely location by the river. Excellent service & very friendly. We had the Sunday Roast which was very enjoyable. The roast beef is better quality than you would normally get and the trimmings are good. The Yorkshire pudding is big! Minor complaint is that the food could have been hotter in temperature and the roasted carrots were a little too al dente for us but this is just personal preference. The apple crumble on the roast menu was £15 -it is to share but was too much for two of us-plenty for 3 people and enough for four. All in all, an enjoyable Sunday lunch.

    Perched along the Thames, this Argentinian steakhouse boasts floor-to-ceiling windows that offer stunning views of both the river and your rapidly depleting bank account. The meat is, admittedly, exceptional – though at these prices, one expects the cow to have had a more impressive CV than most diners. Service is attentive, dedicated to anticipating your every thought before you think it.

    Came for a birthday celebration and used a £50 discount, or so we thought, until the bill turned up pretending it never happened. Had to point it out ourselves—no apology, of course. But we still left £30 for gratis service. Truly, we’re too kind for our own good.
