Every Gordon Ramsay Restaurant in London, Ranked
The Gordon Ramsay name covers a three-Michelin-starred room in Chelsea and a burger counter with arcade games. Fifteen London restaurants ranked by whether they justify the name, not by what they charge.
In short: our top picks are Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, Pétrus by Gordon Ramsay and Restaurant 1890 by Gordon Ramsay. 15 places in total, chosen on merit, with the full reasoning below.
No name in London stretches further. Book a Gordon Ramsay restaurant and you might get three Michelin stars and a Tuesday-to-Saturday dining room in Chelsea, or bottomless pizza beside an arcade machine, and the website presents them the same way. That is the problem this page exists to solve. The order below is about whether a restaurant justifies itself, not what it charges: a good burger counter beats a mediocre grill room. Where a brand runs several London sites under one concept, such as Bread Street Kitchen or Street Burger, it appears once, with its addresses named in the entry.

Editor’s choice
Restaurant Gordon Ramsay
Why we pick itHis first wholly owned restaurant, open on Royal Hospital Road since 1998 and holding three Michelin stars since 2001, which no other room in the group comes close to. Modern French under chef de cuisine Kim Ratcharoen, and the one address where the name means exactly what people think it means.
Worth knowingTuesday to Saturday only, with lunch seated between noon and 1.30pm and dinner between 6pm and 9.15pm.
Three stars, and the only one of its kind
-
Pétrus by Gordon Ramsay
Why we pick itOne Michelin star for classic French cooking with contemporary edges, and a cellar that took a World's Best Wine Lists award in 2024, which is the real reason to choose it over its siblings. There is a chef's table for anyone who wants the kitchen rather than the room.
The wine list
-
Restaurant 1890 by Gordon Ramsay
Why we pick itOne Michelin star and four AA rosettes inside the Savoy, named for the year Escoffier arrived and built explicitly on his legacy rather than gesturing at it. Tasting menu only, with wine pairings, and the most formal evening in the group after Chelsea.
Tasting menu with a lineage
-
Restaurant Gordon Ramsay High
Why we pick itLevel 60 of 22 Bishopsgate, with panoramic views across London and a Carte Blanche tasting menu that hands the kitchen the decisions and keeps the courses a surprise. Small enough to feel like a private room rather than a tower restaurant.
The best view in the group
-
Savoy Grill - Gordon Ramsay
Why we pick itThe heritage room of the group, British and French cooking in a dining room that has been feeding London for a century, with a chef's table in the kitchen and a private wine room off it. The Sunday roast is carved at the table, and the Host and Roast service is the reason most regulars book.
The grand room
-
Lucky Cat 22 Bishopsgate by Gordon Ramsay
Why we pick itThe same level 60 as High but run as a bar and dining room, with 360 degree views, a raw bar and a rooftop terrace. It keeps going until 3am from Thursday to Saturday, which makes it the only room in the group that works as a late night.
Views, a raw bar and a 3am licence
-
The River Restaurant by Gordon Ramsay
Why we pick itThe Savoy's all-day room, classic but deliberately relaxed, built around a raw bar of oysters and caviar and the best British shellfish the kitchen can get. The one to use when you want the hotel without committing to a tasting menu.
Oysters and caviar, all day
-
Lucky Cat Mayfair by Gordon Ramsay
Why we pick itThe original Lucky Cat, on Grosvenor Square, running lunch, dinner and late cocktails seven days a week with lobster dumplings and teriyaki salmon among the signatures. A chef's table runs on selected days; the Bishopsgate site has the view, this one has the room.
The Mayfair original
-
Gordon Ramsay at Sea Containers
Why we pick itInside Sea Containers on the South Bank, with a terrace looking east to Blackfriars Bridge and St Paul's and west along the curve of the river. British produce led: Shetland mussels, Cornish cod, Devon crab, and the Beef Wellington for anyone who came for the greatest hits.
Best terrace on the river
-
Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill - Mayfair
Why we pick itAll-day grilling on Grosvenor Square, built around large sharing cuts and reimagined classics rather than a tasting format. The bar is a genuine part of it, which is not true of the fine dining rooms.
Sharing cuts off the grill
-
Heddon Street Kitchen
Why we pick itA restaurant, a bar and a terrace on the pedestrianised stretch of Heddon Street, seconds from Regent Street, doing seasonal menus and cocktails from morning onwards. HDN, the cocktail bar hidden below, is kept for private events.
The reliable all-rounder off Regent Street
-
Bread Street Kitchen & Bar - St Paul's
Why we pick itThe first Bread Street, by St Paul's, open seven days from breakfast to dinner with the Bread Street Burger, seasonal plates and a proper cocktail list. Casual dress, children welcome, small dogs welcome, which makes it the easiest room in the group to walk into.
Worth knowingFive more London sites now carry the name, at 22 Bishopsgate, Battersea, South Place, Stratford and Limehouse.
The original, and the most forgiving booking
-
Pizza East Shoreditch
Why we pick itIn the Tea Building on Shoreditch High Street, doing produce-led Italian from wood-fired pizza to lasagne in a room that has aged better than most of its neighbours. A second site runs in Stratford.
The Tea Building room
-
Street Pizza
Why we pick itBottomless pizza with arcade games and DJs at St Paul's and Battersea Power Station, with a £15 pizza and drink deal on weekdays until 5pm. It does not pretend to be a restaurant, which is why it works.
Worth knowingArcade machines and DJs: not the place for a conversation.
Bottomless pizza, honestly
-
Street Burger
Why we pick itThree London counters, on Charing Cross Road, in Farringdon and at The O2, doing signature burgers, seasoned fries and shakes alongside arcade games. A burger and fries starts at £17.50, and £20 at The O2, which is the going rate for a name rather than for a burger.
Fine for what it is
Before you book
The fine dining rooms are the ones that need planning: Restaurant Gordon Ramsay opens Tuesday to Saturday only, and the tasting menus at 1890 and High run to a set format rather than a la carte. For a view, the two rooms on level 60 of 22 Bishopsgate are the ones to book, and Lucky Cat there keeps its bar going until 3am from Thursday to Saturday. At the other end, Street Pizza runs a £15 pizza and drink deal on weekdays until 5pm, and Street Burger starts at £17.50 for a burger and fries, £20 at The O2.

Most great dinners in London are a means to an end. You eat, you talk, you move on to the bar, the show, the rest of the night. The tasting menu refuses to be that. It is not the warm-up. It is the whole event, the curtain up and the curtain down, three hours that […]
