Comptoir Gascon

Generally good however service was quite slow despite there not being very many diners. The rosé and white wine were at room temperature - ice cubes were provided however this dilutes and changes the taste of the wine so would it not be simpler to chill properly in the first place. We had to ask what the Plat du Jour was instead of being advised on arrival.

The dinner was very good and the atmosphere pleasant, on the simple side, without undue paraphinelia. The wine recommendation was excellent, and so was the main dish (beef fillet). The best feature: not noisy, could easily have a conversation.

I really enjoy going to Comptoir Gascon - the food is lovely, the service is good and the restaurant itself has an air of relaxation about it (even when it's busy).

Lovely venue and great service. The food is very good. My one criticism is only relevant to vegetarians - the chips (which are often required as a side main for healthy appetites) are dipped in duck fat. Its location can only get better once crossrail opens.

Always great experience. Staff are wonderful. Menu could use some revision

C'ést très chouette

Excellent as usual

We were a group of 5 and all our food was delicious. Two of us shared the chateaubriand which was melt-in-the-mouth with a wonderful flavour ( the offer of 50% off any wine that went with it was a bonus too). The service was friendly and efficient and joy of joys it wasn't too noisey or rushed. A lovely find.

Felt the standard had dropped since my last visit in 2010.
Food arrived cold.
Steak was not cooked as I requested.
There were not many dining which was not a surprise.
We are at Moro 2 weeks before on a Saturday which is also in Farringdon area and the restaurant was full and the standard was still excellent after all these years.
Time for an increase in effort from CG I think.

Staff friendly, food tasty, though the guinea fowl was undercooked and a bit red near the bone. The dessert was ordered at the same time as the main meal on a fixed price menu but took over 30 mins to arrive. I was sitting by the window and it was draughty. Disappointing.
