L'Escargot is London's oldest French restaurant, established in 1927, and has been an epicentre of fine dining in Soho since its inception. Located on Greek Street, it's known for its classic, old-school Parisian atmosphere, elegant interior, and cosy ambiance, making it a celebrated Soho legend.
Customers consistently praise L'Escargot for its authentic old-school French and Parisian atmosphere, attentive and extraordinary service, and excellent food quality. Signature dishes like escargots with garlic butter, steak, duck confit, lobster, and chocolate soufflé receive high acclaim. Many highlight the good value, especially for the Sunday lunch set menu, and the fresh, delicious bread. While generally positive, minor comments include duck confit being slightly salty or steak being slightly overcooked for a medium order.
The menu at L'Escargot changes every two weeks, offering a dynamic selection of French delicacies. They also feature premium items like caviar.
The restaurant is open Tuesday to Saturday, with lunch served from 12 pm to 3 pm (last orders). Sunday lunch is particularly recommended for its great value. It's considered a perfect spot for a date night or a special lunch in Soho.
