Gordon Ramsay Restuarants/London Weekend

Alright guys,

Not so much a new user but been quite a browser for some time! :)
Looking to take my girlfriend to London around the end of February time and hopefully take to her to one of Gordon Ramsays restaurants as we both enjoy watching alot of his cooking programs etc! Having never been to any of them before I was wondering if anyone could give any advice on which one would suit us best? I understand there going to be quite expensive also but wouldn't want to be spending hundreds and hundreds :eek:

If anyone has any advice on possible hotels around his restuarants that would be a bonus but I was going to try find a top secret one on Last Minute once I knew which restuarant to go to!
Thanks for taking the time to read!!

    There is a Gordon Ramsay pub near me, The Warrington, they do 3 courses for around £20.
    There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.

    I'd recommend Marcus Waring at the Berkeley instead.

    Ramsey cancelled a booking of 6 months standing 4 weeks before we were due to dine - when pressed for a gesture of goodwill we were offered a glass of house wine - they wouldn't stretch to a bottle! Needless to say we found somewhere else.
  • A Gordon Ramsey pub with 3 courses for £20?? That sounds like an amazing deal!!! I imagined it would be really expensive!!!

    For the experience, I absolutely loved his flagship in Royal Hospital Road, Chelsea. But admittedly that did cost hundreds - possibly something to do with the amount of champagne I consumed in the four hours we were there! I think at the time it was £55 for a three course lunch, £110 for the tasting menu. The food was sublime, the best by far and the service was just top notch - you've never experienced anything like it! But there is also a little bistro, a Gordon Ramsay, called Foxtrot Oscar (cheeky name!) which is only about eight doors down that we went to for lunch a few weeks ago. I was able to book the day before. We had a couple of cocktails, a beer, a glass of good wine, three courses and coffee and it came to £95. The food was lovely and I loved the cocktail!

    I would really recommend doing lunch because not only is it likely to be a bit cheaper on a set menu, plus you get to enjoy the experience for longer without being tired. If you dine in Royal Hospital Road you can either take a stroll from there down along the river or go in the opposite direction and do some shopping on the Kings Road.
