Le Garrick Brasserie Restaurant in City of London

We came to Le Garrick for dinner last night. We were very excited, in light of the positive reviews online. The restaurant itself had a lovely ambiance, and the French waitress was very sweet. For our main, we ordered three portions of moules frites. We were initially bought one small portion of fries with our moules, to share between the three of us, rather than the three portions we were meant to receive. But they did bring an additional portion, after we had to ask for it. The fries were all we ate of our moules frites. The moules had been hugely overcooked, and were inedible. The majority of the moules shells were empty, and those that weren’t were tiny, shrivelled and rubbery. They did not appear fresh, and looked as if they had been repeatedly reheated. Given that we did not eat our food, the manager removed the cost of the moules from our bill. We still paid in excess of £80 for 2 bottles of wine and a fondue vacherin starter (NB: not fondue, but melted vacherin), which we shared between three of us. We left hungry, out of pocket, and incredibly disappointed.

Lovely restaurant - the service was really nice and friendly - the food was really good and tasty - I love all the frames in the walls

The food was fantastic and the service was very friendly, as well as helpful. The decor was very romantic and the prices were reasonable. The duck was very tender and tasty. Not quite 5 stars as the seat we were crammed into (a wide high backed seat) was really not made for two people and we had to eat with our elbows tucked right in! We were also next to the door which meant it was pretty cold. A little disappointing considering we had booked ahead.

Excellent food and service! The cassoulet and chocolate fondant were outstanding and complementary Cointreau shots were provided at the end

Our favourite restaurant in London. 100% authentic with the most attentive and lovely staff. Food never disappoints and is of the highest standards. If I could give 10 stars I would.

Lovely restaurant with authentic French food and friendly staff. We had the steak for 2 with sides and it was delicious, huge and great value. The atmosphere downstairs is warm and cosy too.

Really good food and service! The atmosphere is amazing, a very authentic restaurant

Amazing dining experience! Welcome reception the moment you step into the restaurant. Friendly & professional staff, incl kitchen/chef. French cuisine at its best, especially Moules Marinière, Beef Bourguignon..oh and the wines!🍷 Already looking forward to our next visit.

Really lovely little French restaurant. Very authentic feel which reflected in the food. All the flavours and textures were on point. Is clearly a popular choice, even on a Monday night so definitely book! Great service throughout. Nice atmosphere!

The food was great and the waiting staff were friendly and very helpful. It has an authentic Paris feel. I even asked if they’d explain some of the dishes in English and they didn’t mind at all, they were also very knowledgeable about what was on the menu. Calamari was fantastic!Loses a star because foie gras was an option as a starter. For others, it may be no issue.Would highly recommend. Thank you!
