    We were a bit sceptical about Gaucho after reading some of the not so great reviews online but we had the best experience. The food was delicious, the vibes were great, music not too loud, and the service was excellent! Definitely recommend and think it’s worth a visit despite what other may say. Overall I’d rate 9/10 - one point knocked off as the men & women’s toilets upstairs were shared cubicles which I’m not a fan of. Other than that it was a perfect evening! We ordered: scallops, salmon tacos, ribeye steaks with chips, truffle dauphinois, Malbec & bone marrow jus, chocolate brownie, and chocolate torte.

    Where do I start. A really comfortable relaxing experience, tables were not on top of each other, the singer was just perfect . The staff were super, very friendly and explained the different cuts of beef perfectly. The food was absolutely faultless, we were a table of 7 adults and 1 infant. Everyone’s food was cooked and seasoned beautifully. Well done guys 👏🏻 Would highly recommend.

    Lovely restaurant and we were given a nice table by the window. Service was very good and food was delicious and seemed bigger portions than another Gaucho that I have visited. It is expensive though.

    Overall a good experience. More consideration should have been given to the table location for a group with a large guide dog as several staff and customers tripped over the dog who was quietly sprawled out in the walkway.
