The restaurant was on the out skirts of the busy city.  I felt like I was at a little chateau .  Only a hand full of tables and minimal decor.  White table cloths and orchids as decor.  I Liked the style.  

I was greeted immediately by the host with a huge smile!  Everyone welcomed me in as if I'd come home.  The matradee had a great since of humor.  I love when the wait staff has a personality!

My meal was equally as good.  Presentation, quality, and taste were a 10!  I can't wait to experience Restaurant Gordon Ramsay on my next trip to London!

My second visit and I just have to say it's the best restaurant in London.
Food and service in an intimate setting are amazing.
Wine list is superb and the sommelier so knew his stuff.
It isn't cheap but who cares?
Ask to be taken into the kitchen!!!!

Maybe one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've ever had. I had a reservation and was kept waiting 45 minutes because they thought I left even though I sat at the bar exactly like they told me to. No apology.
Waiter ditched my table and was audible about not wanting us.
The food was undercooked and not very good.
The decor was cheap.
The best thing about Gordon Ramsay's York & Albany would be the bar. The bartender was friendly and made a very good drink which set my expectations high, obviously they were not met.
Maybe I don't understand British dining, maybe they hate Americans, maybe I had the cursed table but this restaurant was the pits. . . actually I should be fare, the soup was quite nice.

Reasons to Go:
Drink at the Bar
Maybe I'm totally wrong

Reasons to Pass:
This place sucks
They don't show they care

Being a paragon of refinement and class, I nearly had to send back my wine glass due to water spots. I mean, where were we...Le Gavroche? (insert posh laugh here)

Seriously though, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay is amazing. The food was nearly perfect as my hot date (and generous patron) and I had the scallops, foie gras, sea bass and duck. All rated among the finest I've ever sampled - I doubt you could go wrong anywhere on the menu.

This may sound weird, but the service was really the highlight for me. The pacing of the meal and the knowledge of the staff complemented the food, drink and slick atmosphere. There's nothing worse than going for a posh meal and having it ruined by an uninformed, oversolicitous or inattentive waiter. After a quick tour of the kitchen we did have a bit of awkward interaction with the front of the house in getting them to bring us the bill, but any slight annoyance was forgotten with a sculpture of chocolate truffles.

Certainly you won't decide whether or not to go to RGR based on a Yelp review, but Jesus H. Christmas is this place worth it. Do yourself a favour and grab a table - best 2.5 hour lunch you'll ever have.

I may be reinventing the wheel here, given the uniformity of the positive reviews, but when you experience something this wonderful and challenging, you feel inclined to sing it from the rooftops.

Truly, this was a standard-setting meal.  Impeccable pacing, interesting, but not fussy food.  Exquisite service, no stuffiness or pretension here.  The restaurant decor is the height of simplicity, all clean lines and white linens, which serve only to highlight the extraordinary, almost-architectural quality of the food.

My companion and I went with the £90 a la Carte menu.  Like alcohol, I can never resist sweetbreads, so the foie gras and sweetbreads was a must, and was highlighted by the sweetness of the almond velouté (foam - hand spooned onto my plate - of course).  I went with the sea bass for the main course, which was perfectly cut and cooked and absolutely irresistible.  To finish I went with the Granny Smith parfait with blackberry foam, honeycomb, and cider sorbet - which was structured almost like a Mondrian painting, all right angles, but fantastic.

If you have the means, please do yourself a favor and treat yourself to an amazing dining experience.  Quite simply, the best I've ever had.

Quite possibly the finest restaurant I have ever visited and one that all other like establishments will be compared to.

The food was stunning, with a subtle depth of flavour to every dish. Service was attentive, and pleasant, and the atmosphere was relaxing.

The staff were very accommodating, helpful and relaxed, happy to aid in every aspect of your dining experience.

The only aspect with this restaurant that might cause an issue is its demand. If you wish to have dinner here then I recommend booking at least two months in advance, if you're having lunch then six weeks.

When you go to a 3* Michelin restaurant with Gordon Ramsey's name attached you expect spectacular.

All I will say is.......

Food... WOW
Service... WOW
WIne... WOW
Ambience... WOW

I took my girlfriend and had the Menu Prestige at £120 per head. Yes it is expensive but if you want to treat someone, or eat somewhere special, this place is amazing on every front. Try it once just to say you've been, and book months in advance to avoid disappointment.

I'll start by saying, this is possibly the best meal of my life!  Service, food, ambiance was all wonderful.  I didn't have any wine, but my husband said his was good.  It was pricey (90 euro for 3 course lunch, 120 for the chef's menu) though, but worth every penny of it.  The best dish we had was the classic ravioli with lobster.  The texture and sauce was to die for.  Also, if you go and have 2+ people, they have the dessert where they give you a small sample of everything.  

Everything here is aimed at perfection.  I'm a pretty tough judge and even I'm going to say they've hit the nail in the head for this one.  Now I'll need to really really think to see if I think Ritz SF, French Laundry or Restaurant Gordon Ramsay is my favorite place on earth!

A couple of years ago, Restaurant Gordon Ramsey graced me with one of the most exquisite meals of my life. The signature Menu Prestige is a savory progression of flavors, textures, and explorations of gastronomical beauty. The sauteed foie gras was seared to a lovely mocha hue, while the lobster and langoustine ravioli was impossibly light, and gently infused with citrine ocean flavors. The cheese trolley held many local treasures, and the ginger mousse's piquant bite was diffused by its heady bitter chocolate cylinder. And I have never savored such a fruity, delicate pigeon dish. Highly recommended.
