Gaucho first opened in Piccadilly London in 1994, taking inspiration from Argentina with a vision of bringing the world’s best steak to London. That vision was a success. The first restaurant was set in a modest basement of the current Piccadilly site which has now developed and expanded in to our four floor flagship restaurant. This is a unique opportunity in the heart of London is not to be missed!
