Amazing - Edit
Had a two for one deal on the tasting menu and what a wonderful experience it was. Every dish was tasty and well cooked. We thought that the appetisers of quiche Lorraine and garlic and lemon arancini couldn't be bettered. Maybe they weren't but everything that followed was just as good. The staff were friendly and very efficient.

OMG this is mind-blowing. Life-changing food! - Edit
It is a challenge to underplay how amazing this was as an experience. We had the 7 course tasting menu and as a long-term Vegan, the deep memories it evoked from before renouncing animals as food were powerful: salmon ceviche, fois gras with brioche...and the 3D printed wine-braised brisket (wow!), all delicious often alarmingly 'real' (my intellect knew what I was eating, but my senses and memories didn't). It is rare that an experience is both sensually delicious and intellectually and emotionally challenging (in a good way!). If you can get someone to treat you for a special occasion, they definitely go!

New restaurant by Alexis Gauthier - Edit
This is the new restaurant by Gauthier. It brings together some dishes from his fine dining restaurant and 123v. There is also a bakery.
Read moreThe result is a little odd as you have sushi alongside French dishes.
You can opt for the tasting menu or a la carte.
We had the ‘caviar’ (nice but expensive for the portion size). Dragon rolls, sushi tacos (highly recommend these) and the pithivier (my partner’s fave).
Recommend this restaurant if you don’t want the formality of the Soho townhouse but want to experience the amazing food.
Pros: Waving the flag for vegan fine dining.

Fantastic staff. Food not quite as good as expected - Edit
We went for the tasting menu. All courses except one were delicious however there became quite a bit of a wait when they got particularly busy then my food was well overdone and not so tasty. As the staff are so lovely and they were really busy we didn't mind too much but it would have been nice to be offered a complimentary drink as a sorry for the wait.

Adventurous cuisine, relaxed dog-friendly atmosphere - Edit
We sat outside on the terrace which is in a kind of courtyard between office buildings but feels surprisingly peaceful and secluded, at least in the evening.
Read moreWe decided to order from the a la carte menu and as there were three of us we were able to try all three large plates, all of which were excellent I thought. Everything here is creatively seasoned and tastes different from what I've experienced before. I had read an enthusiastic report of the pithivier with mushrooms, but we thought the chard dish with anise was even more interesting. The blackberry salad accompanying the pithivier is also memorable.
My sushi starter was also fine (there isn't as big a selection as at 123V but still several to choose from). A side salad was generous with a tasty dressing, and my companions (including the dog) thought highly of the sourdough bread. A pavlova-type dessert was generous enough for the two people who were interested and the strawberry topping was the main event rather than an afterthought.
The staff were extremely kind and helpful as well as efficient. I will definitely be back - it's a bit beyond my usual budget but nonetheless good value considering the thought and work that goes into it. If you get on the mailing list you will be sent special offers. I'd like to try the bakery at the front which I think operates as a café during the day.

Loved it! - Edit
Totally vegan, relaxed upmarket restaurant. The menu is small with bread, starters, sushi and large plates. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Service was great and the atmosphere warm and friendly, with cool tunes and comfortable seating.
Read moreWe used the introductory 30% off food, and ordered enough bread, starters, sushi, mains and desserts to fill four people, plus a few drinks each and it came to £50 per head. Even at full price this place is great value for the delicious food and lovely setting.
Special mentions to the cocktails, the sushi; so much more than average vegan sushi, it was really innovative. And to all the aubergine based dishes-delicious!
Definitely recommend booking, we’ll be back for sure :)
