    We had a lovely experience, and even though came unprepared (with strict dietary requirements not mentioned in advance)-- the staff was accommodating and chef managed to deliver on a short notice.

    If you are vegetarian and want to book an expensive restaurant with Vegan 10 course taster menu after 730pm then this might be the place for you. The customer service is pretty good, I changed my booking time on the telephone with them 3 times and they were fine about it. The restaurant is right bang in the middle of Soho, you wouldn't think that inside as its super quiet. Its actually an old house, on arrival it felt like we were showing up at a house party, apart from the fact we were greeted at the door by a waitress. The decor is nice but not my taste, its modern zesty colours, lots of yellow. Upstairs the dining room was very quiet, we would have appreciated music playing in the background (if there was it was too quiet). The waiting staff were friendly and informative. The food was super nice, I don't remember tasting a dish that I didn't like. Our meal for two with 2 glasses of red wine and few bottles of water cost £250. It was a really nice experience, however neither the food nor the ambience was WOW, which I would expect at this price. I wouldn't dine here again as I am sure there are better places in this price bracket. I imagine its a good place to dine before Theatre evenings, their pre-theatre menu is 5 courses and probably £120 for two, much more reasonable. All in all a good experience but don't expect miracles here.

    The food was fantastic and so tasty. The service was brilliant, knowledgeable but not overbearing. A great experience and we will definitely be back.

    Dining at Gauthier Soho was an unforgettable experience. This Michelin-starred vegan French restaurant is truly a masterpiece of culinary artistry. Every dish was an explosion of flavors—each bite felt like a carefully curated journey through the best of French cuisine. The creativity and precision in every plate were nothing short of extraordinary. The staff were exceptional, acting more like knowledgeable guides than servers. Their passion for the food and its story elevated the entire experience, making each course feel personal and immersive. The ambiance was elegant yet welcoming, perfectly complementing the exquisite dishes. Gauthier Soho is a celebration of flavor, innovation, and hospitality. A must-visit for anyone looking to experience vegan fine dining at its absolute best.

    I am not actually vegan but my wife is and this was a fantastic option for her birthday. It's fine dining but relaxed and the staff are so well informed about all the choices on the menus. We had a lovely time and would certainly go back to see what other gastronomic masterpieces they come up with in future. It's not necessarily cheap as it's a set menu, but we had ten courses (if I counted correctly) of varying sizes and were extremely full by the end and I would say that it is very good value for the level of food and service provided. The brioche course was a particular highlight for me - as someone who doesn't live mushrooms it perhaps opened my eyes a little. Even Swede gets it's moment to shine.

    This was a fabulously enlightening vegan menu, very skilfully created dishes, everything delicious. Really enjoyed everything. Only stars dropped for: it being an old building conversation so a) having no waiting space and not being clear at booking that turning up early (even a few minutes) is a bad idea because you'll have to leave and come back b) sitting near a window for 4 hours meant I was absolutely freezing by the end as it was about -2 out that day. Also, almost everyone who arrived after us left before us, I felt like I waited for the check/payment for so long - the cold may have contributed here! Otherwise service was great, everyone friendly and helpful. I felt bad I couldn't finish the dessert, which was delicious, but SO rich and large and at course 10/10, it was never going to work! Definitely not a winter restaurant I don't think, otherwise would consider trying a new menu in future.

    An absolute must visit vegan or not. This is truly a wonderful celebration of all vegetables. Alexis Gauthier and his team are magicians in creating this wonderful petit diner menu. Perfect for before heading to the theatre. Already booked to return in February.
