We stumble that restaurant by pure chance. As a French person, I was looking forward to the food. And the food was good. The service could have been better for the price we paid. We ordered foie gras with our main meal and they forgot about it. We complained and they made it but we were already done with our meal. We were told we were not gonna be charged but we were, so money wasted. Took them forever to pay after asking multiple times.

Fantastic lunch at the “Oldest French Restaurant in London”. Food and service was impeccable, highly recommended for lunch and/or dinner…. and one of the very few Dog friendly restaurants in central London.Snails with garlic butter sauce, definitely have lots of the delicious homemade bread to soak up all the remaining sauce. Fillet Rossini cooked to perfection and a delectable light lemon tart to finish. Then sit outside and watch the sights of Soho walking by.

-Highly recommended as an independent jewel of a French restaurant -Had a really enjoyable experience when I visited recently. The food was excellent, high quality and straightforwardly well presented food, also great selection of wine. A really relaxing evening, the staff charming, attentive and helpful, so friendly and unhurried not intrusive yet charming service. Felt like welcomed friends.I found it to be an excellent restaurant which I would not hesitate to revisit the next time that I am in the area.

Beautiful place and the food was delicious. We went there on Sunday and we chose to not have the Sunday roast but everything that we chose was absolutely delicious. The bread was perfect and in my opinion a restaurant that make a good bread usually has a good food in general. The price was perfect and the wine very delicious. I will be back to try fillet of beef Rossini"."

L’Escargot is London’s oldest French restaurant situated in Soho. As you walk in you get the sense of the grandeur and elegance. It’s a great fine dining experience, the food is exquisite. I’m not usually a fan of snails, but the ones served here are fantastic. Loved the foie gras and the specials of sweetbreads and beef wellington. The service is top notch. The staff are very welcoming, chatty and attentive. Enjoy the brilliant artwork too.

I recently dined at this l'escargot and had a fantastic experience. The sharing escargot platter is a must-try, especially if you have a group larger than 4. The steak and fish dishes were both delicious. The cozy ambiance and excellent service made the evening even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for a great dining experience!

The food was delicious, the service was great, and the atmosphere superb. The stupendous snails were soaked in butter and herbs, whilst the cod paired well with peas and baby asparagus. The bread was freshly baked, incredibly tasty, great selection and hot fresh from the oven. We really enjoyed dipping the bread in the butter herb sauce of the snails. We had a lovely lunch.

The restaurant is open again. We visited with my little kids for lunch as they advised that kids are not welcome for dinner.The food was good. They have a bit of fine dining vibe going compared to an average brasserie. They put lot more thought and dedication. And they are delicious.We ordered the iconic snail and it was good, as the sauce was classic.The staffs were very friendly. The place was beautifully decorated. It feels like a jump to avant garde France. Not that I have lived the romantic age, but this must be the feel. I wish they had a background music to go with the theme...

Fabulous as always. Great refurbishment and very relaxed. We had the terrine (rare and true), lobster bisque and the snail pie, a dish you are unlikely to get anywhere else, but which should be on every menu. The lobster bisque has been developed by the super restaurant team over many years and has an intensity of flavour you will find nowhere else. It's a good price too. The wine list is shortish but I found some great bargains.

Wonderful experience! Very welcoming atmosphere with the deco, music and dim lights. The lobster bisque, les escargots, the mushroom linguine and the wine selection were divine. The pheasant not as much, unfortunately. We’ve also learned that there is a cosy live piano bar on the top floor - will certainly be back.
