Gaucho HampsteadAmazing resturant with superb staffI took my fiancé to Gauchos for his birthday as he has dined here before and thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were so attentive and very informative and the food was absolutely delicious. Although Gaucho's is not cheap in any way you pay for the quality that you receive. I would recommend Gauchos for special occasions and defiantly for couples as it is very romantic with the low lighting and decor.30/04/2013 00:00:00Steak of SteaksSuperb Argentinean ribeye, can't beat it, sorry for vegetarians.26/04/2013 00:00:00Great steaksSimply one of the best steak restaurants in London. Always best quality Argentinian beef cooked to perfection. But it's expensive. You get what you pay for. Worth every penny.20/04/2013 00:00:00AmazingWent for the first time last Saturday with my girlfriend and had such an amazing meal. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was absolutely amazing. Best service I've ever received in a restaurant as well as the best food.13/04/2013 00:00:00fantastic as usualThe whole meal,service and experience was great and cold not fault. Staff very knowledgeable and great service.05/04/2013 00:00:00Great food and serviceWent for a meal on a Thursday evening, reception was good, service brilliant, food fantastic.04/04/2013 00:00:00As soon as my boyfriend andAs soon as my boyfriend and I walked in, we were treated like regulars. Our first time at Gaucho, our waiter Alex enthusiastically explained the different cuts of meat and listened to our preferences (mine lean, my partner marbled) and he suggested some main dishes we would like.
The steak was beautiful, and perfectly cooked medium - rare. Exceptionable quality steak.
There was surprisingly a few families there, but as a relaxed Gaucho I would say the restaurant catered for them well.24/03/2013 00:00:00Top steakIt doesn't get any better than Goucho fillet steak ("lomo"). It's worth the extra. Great service and wine list too. Goucho lost a star in my rating because some of the tables are too close together.23/03/2013 00:00:00I took my daughter for herI took my daughter for her 19th birthday as it is one of her favourite places to eat but as its quite pricey we are only able to visit very rarely.
When we walked in we were shown to our table for dinner at 7.30. Unfortunately, next to us sat another couple with a child who did not stop screaming. The waitress couldnt even take our order as the noise was so bad.
Immediately, I asked to be moved and the restaurant waitress found us a quieter table.
On the whole, we had a lovely meal and the food, as always was fantastic.
Looking forward to saving up and going for my birthday. :)13/03/2013 00:00:00Family birthday dinnerGaucho served us well for a family birthday celebration. All food was excellent and the bread 'to die for'. The wine we chose, I think 'Vino Patricia', had some connection to Gaucho but in any event was an immensely pleasant wine. The main person looking after us was Alex, who was very attentive and was positive and efficient in trying to arrange the little quirks we requested... 'lots more butter', 'risotto as a starter', 'the wine bottle' (why?), and 'doggie bags' -- not this exquisite steak for the doggie.. but for steak sandwiches the following day. Glorious! A 400gm portion of succulent tender steak is a lovely lot of just the best meat - just couldn't eat it all in one sitting! Enjoyed by all our party.13/03/2013 00:00:00A truly great experienceIt was my boyfriend's 18th and I'd already let them know this with a suggestion that a cake with a candle 'or something' would be nice. They instantly greeted us with a glass of champagne each and were very friendly and helpful. The food was of course divine and the service excellent. We decided that we were too full to have dessert but after asking for the bill the waiter brought him a sticky toffee pudding with 'happy birthday' written in sauce on the plate and a candle. Both the champagne and the pudding were free. I was so delighted that they had gone to the effort of making it such a memorable evening. As a student the price (£50 for us both) wasn't cheap but it was totally worth it and deserved for the special occasion.10/03/2013 00:00:00Gauchos HampsteadOur second visit there. We took friends with us this time and they were very impressed with the steaks. We all loved the atmosphere and the buzz and the waitress looked after us very well. The steaks were done to perfection. The desserts were amazing too.09/03/2013 00:00:00Fabulous experienceService excellent. No pressure to eat and go. Food delicious. Price fair and I like the ability to taste wines before trying08/03/2013 00:00:00One word: FANTASTIC!We were in London for our honeymoon & wanted a fancy diner out. We had read good things about Gaucho, so we gave it a shot.
The staff was extremely friendly. Our host was very interested in our hometown & that we came all the way from Michigan, US. She also gave us many good suggestions for things to do & see around the city.
The manager brought over two glasses of champagne for us to celebrate & then after our meal brought over a nice desert wine for us.
The food was absolutely amazing. My wife had the steak sampler (don't recall the name) & she loved it. It was so good that she ate it all! I had the marinated filet (again, don't recall the name) & it was delicious! The best filet I've ever eaten & I love steak!
You MUST go here!!!!06/03/2013 00:00:00The most amazing dining experienceThis came recommended by a work colleague for the best steak we would ever eat which although is a bold statement, is in no way an exaggeration. This is not a cheap place to go but is absolutely worth every penny. The service is friendly and warm and they were extremely helpful with any Argentinean terminology that we were unfamiliar with on the menu. The quality of the food, the ambience and decor, along with great service makes this an exceptional dining experience. This was our first visit as a birthday treat and we will be returning to treat ourselves again and again!03/03/2013 00:00:00The best steak house in townFor one who enjoys a good steak this is arguably the best place in town. The steaks are always good and the cerviche tasty. We've been regular goers to Gaucho in Hampstead for a number of years. In the past we had found the food excellent but the service below par. This time, however, we noticed the well-dressed, pretty hostesses all gone. They had been replaced replaced by efficient staff who actually knew what they were doing. Our waitress and waiter were excellent too. They had good knowledge of the food and wine and were attentive all the way through. We had a wonderful meal and a great time.17/02/2013 00:00:00Still the best steak and FOHI love the food here and it never dissapoints - the lady who runs front of house is amazing and so helpful and friendly, which just means I come back again and again! Could do with some parking near by though!16/02/2013 00:00:00Amazing DiningThe experience was phenomenal, it was a special occasion and my partner and I loved it! Recommend it to anyone, amazing cocktails too!!15/02/2013 00:00:00Great RestaurantWent here for a Valentines night out, great service and most importantly great steak!15/02/2013 00:00:00Outstanding food and seviceGaucho is perfect for special occasions as it provides the best steak you're ever likely to have. The service is first class and staff are extremely attentive, polite and helpful. Although very pricey, you will not leave disappointed and you will be willing to pay the price for the quality provided.15/02/2013 00:00:00Lovely meal - Pricy thoughWe had a wonderful meal and the staff were fantastic, really lovely, were made to feel the most important people in the restuarant when we arrived, when we were served and when we left. the food was also wonderful, we are both massive meat eaters and our food was very high quality,our steaks were like butter and the knowlege of the waiter and his advice was excellent very filling but a lot of money. You can not go to Goucho though without knowing this in advance.Both my husband and i did not like the peppercorn sauce (it tasted funny) and the waiter noticed and without even asking or hesitating mentioned it would be removed from the bill. We will be going back again without a doubt.12/02/2013 00:00:00great food and prob best placegreat food and prob best place to eat in NW london05/02/2013 00:00:00Excellent Steak HouseOutstanding quality of food, excellent value and amazing menu.05/02/2013 00:00:00Great birthday treatI took my fiance to Gauchos in Hamstead as a well deserved birthday treat. It had been on his list of places he wanted to go for ages and I'm glad to say it didn't disapoint. The front of house service fantastic for starters & bartender was very knowledgable on the selction of wines, reccomending suitable choices according to my taste & allowing me to taste them.
The waitress was more than helpful and reccomended dishes to me according to what I told her I like. She also explained to us the best way to have our cut of meat cooked. And she was right, it was absolutely delicious.
All in all we had a fantastic experience. The atmosphere was great, and the food and service were fabulous. We can't wait to go agian soon!29/01/2013 16:00:00The lady at the front of houseThe lady at the front of house was amazing - we had to wait 20 mins for our table, making it quite late but I did not care as she was so amazing about it! the food as ever is amazing and I still stand by that this is the BEST steak restaurant in London when you count the food, service and atmosphere!19/01/2013 00:00:00Great 'meaty' restaurantGreat meat, great service and lovely ambience. A bit pricey so great for a special occasion.11/01/2013 16:00:00Excellent Food and AtmosphereI am giving this Restaurant in Hampstead ***** out of ***** As it ticks all the boxes. This is the best Gaucho I have ever been to it is friendly and welcoming, we will definitely be back.07/01/2013 16:00:00Excellent experienceIt was an excellent experience with the worlds nicest steak that i've ever had.
Funny enough they don't provide steak knife coz the meat is so tender, a butter knife is more than enough.01/01/2013 16:00:00Food was delicious, particularlyFood was delicious, particularly starter and main course. Dessert was sickly sweet but nice for the first two mouthfuls. Atmosphere is great and service impeccable. Wonderful night out. Prices are on the expensive side, drinks close to west end prices, but this would not deter me from going again.21/12/2012 16:00:00Gaucho HampsteadVery good quality meat dishes, friendly service. I recommend this restaurant.09/11/2012 16:00:00Love the place, love the steaks!I have been to Gaucho Hampstead several times and the food never lets you down! The ambience is cosy and luxurious. The whole experience was lovely, although perhaps on the slightly expensive side, but I will definitely be going there again. In fact I have already booked my next visit there!21/10/2012 00:00:00So dependableAs ever a fabulous venue for getting the family together for dinner. Gaucho Hampstead is in my view special within the Gaucho stable, the venue itself plush yet informal, vibrant and happy. Super friendly, efficient service from handsome and beautiful staff, and of course food that does everything it promises to do. Can't go wrong here!05/10/2012 00:00:00FantsticGreat steak place. Ambience lovely & food was delicious. Service was adequate but nothing to rave about. Pricey but worth it on occasions.03/10/2012 16:00:00The food in Gaucho is alwaysThe food in Gaucho is always excellent, however you do pay for it. Great wine selection- Malbec is my favourite and goes well with the meat.
I was a bit dissapointed with the service as we had to wait for over 45 min for a table even though we had a booking.03/08/2012 16:00:00Lovely SettingWe had a brilliant meal at the Hampstead restaurant. We are a big fan of the Gaucho restaurants and this one did not disappoint. We had a selection of the ceviche to start which were lovely and then their fabulous steaks for our main course. I was really pleased when they seated us in their outdoor area as not many of their venues have outdoor space. A great night, with great service and food had by all.26/07/2012 00:00:00Outstanding steaks!Myself and my husband dined here for the first time and it was amazing. Food, service and atmosphere was faultless. The waitress explained how each cut of meat could be prepared and served and the result was steak perfection! Not cheap but you eat quality steak and you pay for it, simples! Will definitely go back for another romantic dinner very soon (I hope!)29/06/2012 16:00:00We were extremely well lookedWe were extremely well looked after again. I’m not sure the steaks are as good as they used to be or maybe good steaks are just easier to come by elsewhere.
My favorite aspect are the extras, for example the humitas and cheesy bread are wonderful.
Very easy to go mad on the wine list as we did.31/05/2012 16:00:00Gaucho never dissapoints!Gaucho never dissapoints! It is pricey but the food is delicious! Also- great wine selection, a variety of Malbec vines which are just amazing!!11/05/2012 16:00:00Gaucho in Hampstead. FoodGaucho in Hampstead. Food was excellent. Service was attentive. The waitress did mistakenly add a bottle of wine on our bill that we hadn't drank, but was quickly corrected. All in all, a great dinner!14/04/2012 00:00:00We had dinner at Gaucho HampsteadWe had dinner at Gaucho Hampstead on a Saturday night and the place was buzzing and full. Despite that, the service was very friendly and attentive. The food as always is very good at the Gaucho restaurants. We were disappointed though with the Ambience as the other Gaucho restuarants are far better in this respect. It is a long restaurant with the kitchen running on one side making it less formal and cafe style.30/03/2012 16:00:00What better place for theWhat better place for the kids to bring their Mum on Mother's day. Gaucho Hampstead undoubtedly the best in the stable combining the consistently excellent Gaucho fayre with a fabulous setting and energetic dining room. Everything was perfect for the occasion. As ever!17/03/2012 17:00:00Very Friendly staff from theVery Friendly staff from the minute we arrived till the time we left. The food is more than acceptable for a group restaurant. The steaks are of a good quality although they did lack body somewhat. For a 7.30pm the place was surprisingly busy and made for a good atmosphere and evening out28/02/2012 16:00:00This was my second time inThis was my second time in Gaucho. The service was not as good as the first time but the food was still amazing. You do pay for it though.02/02/2012 16:00:00For some reason this GauchoFor some reason this Gaucho is always hit and miss. Service very good as ever but my ice and I were a little sick afterwards, we have had problems here before which is unfortunate.28/01/2012 16:00:00
