Is Restaurant Gordon Ramsay in London Worth The Hype? 3 Michelin Stars!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 май 2024
- Gordon Ramsay may be one of the most famous chefs on the planet, thanks to his plethora of reality TV shows like Kitchen Nightmares, Hell's Kitchen, MasterChef, and the F Word, but it's easy to forget that he is objectively a very accomplished chef from a Michelin standpoint. He has amassed 17 Michelin stars throughout his career, but his fame all started when he opened Restaurant Gordon Ramsay in London. Also known as Restaurant Gordon Ramsay at Royal Hospital Road, the restaurant was Ramsay's first solo restaurant and within a few short years it received three Michelin stars.
While many of Gordon's other restaurants, particularly in the US, are more so casual spots and even tourist destinations, such as Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill, Gordon Ramsay Steak, and Gordon Ramsay Fish and Chips, his flagship Restaurant Gordon Ramsay has held three Michelin stars for more than 20 years, which is an absolutely surreal accomplishment. The question though is if it deserves its reputation as such an excellent restaurant, or if it's just coasting off its name and its celebrity chef's name at this point. We'll find out together!
This is the highlight of the London series so hopefully you enjoy it!

Not going to lie. When his face shows that he loves somethings is also the same face as disgust. I always get confused from his reactions a bit ha
The more disgusted he looks the more he likes it. If he has a plain expression the food is garbage.
What about love making faces
yea it looks like he's hurt even
Yeah, his faces remind me of the 'stink faces' musicians make to other musicians when their music sounds good. I do the same as a musician lol
Opposite of Mark Weins
Why did they call the dish "ravioli" if there's only one? It should be raviolo.

People often forget that for a good portion of his training Gordon trained under Marco Pierre White...and to make it with that guy you had to be one of the best chefs in the world...that guy was even on an other level than Ramsey...in skill and insaneness
Marco is the GOAT of British Chefs. Youngest ever to win 3 Michelin Stars.
@@herczeus9341 I would even go so far as to say, he is one of the best chefs in history worldwide..Maybe not the best but definately in the absolute top..that guy is nuts

Thanks for not being a hater and not contradicting a hyped restaurant just to create controversy for views. I really like your honesty man 👍
I am super pleased and grateful that you shelled out the big $$$ to do a full tasting menu and get a complete experience from Ramsay's flagship (as it is the only way to realistically assess a 2 or 3 Michelin star restaurant.) And you did a wonderful job conveying how each item tasted without the cliches that fine dining foodie influencers can fall back on. Although this isn't the main focus of the channel, once I wanted to note this was greatly appreciated. Hope you get a lot of views for this!
We were treated to several facial expressions as yet unseen, so regardless of what you think about the price, it was obviously an utterly new experience. And after all, "we're here for a good time, not a long time." Great review, UA.

£210 for 3* in central London is amazing value! And you don’t measure how good a 3* meal is by how stuffed you feel when you’ve finished.
That is excellent value, Cumbria is more expensive than London for fine dining imho
Shame about bug on salad
Very true
@@r7coo Not even close. There are no 3* restaurants in Cumbria or any that are £180 for 2 courses.

Ive been to Gordons place in AC. In Harras. Absolutely amazing. SpeciallyWet wedge blue cheese salad and NY Strip. Omg
Absolutely loved every minute of this vid. Thank you UA and Tina!
I went to HK in Vegas twice in a row. Excellent food, service and ambiance. All of his places that I have gone to were well worth it. Glad you got to enjoy the experience with the person you love. I met him last year in Vegas and he is the nicest guy. Warm and friendly to everyone that spoke to him. His staff say the same thing about him.
I thought HK was a TV studio, and not a real restaurant
@@cyclopsvision6370 it is a TV studio but the restaurants are designed to look like the show. There is one in NYC and Vegas. There may be others too.
You're not paying for quantity there, you're paying for the best ingredients in the world prepared in the most perfect way down to the molecular level.
Great video! Thank you
Excellent review, UA! One of your best. Impressed by Gordon's game, too.
dont wear a tshirt under a shirt in a Michelin restaurant even if you are American !
The Bar and Grill was the site of “ Aubergine “ his first restaurant he part owned where he got his first Michelin star . I worked there a couple of times many years ago in the nineties.
Hi UA love that your spreading your wings . Thanks for your wonderful Chanel . RK keep it up
Great video UA 🔥🔥🔥
The starters (canapes, beef tartare etc) and some of the main dishes looked AMAZING (the asparagus and ratatouille looked particularly good)! I would have expected his restaurant to be all hype, marketing and no actual substance. I don't eat red meat but the beef dishes still looked appetizing to me. I would have expected there to be more than "one" lobster ravioli but overall a very impressive meal! Thanks for taking us along.
Excellent commentary and the food shots were beautiful! Thank you very much!
AMAZING review as always!!!!
This is now on my bucket list. The food and service looked absolutely perfect. Gordon is THE man
food looks delish, great review UA
It seems no matter at what price point or concept that the consistent theme is Gordon’s restaurants offer excellent food at all levels. At least that’s what I’ve seen from watching several reviews of his different places. Glad to see you crushing it UA!!!
There was bugs on his food. I'm not sure I'd call that excellent.
Love your review of Restaurant Ramsay. Gorgeous presentation on the plates and your facial expression from tasting them has gave me the final push to try and make a reservation in the near future. Have a good time in the UK, UA.
Really enjoyed this review food looked AMAZING 😋👍
Awesome video! I thought till the near end, that you always said "hot cuisine" until I realized it's haute cuisine :D keep on going man
Haute pronounced oat
I actually look forward to vegetable dishes in restaurants the most, because vegetables are so good and underrated if done well. But choosing Ratatouille over Gordon Ramsay's famous signature Lobster Ravioli would have been so incredibly unlikely for me, but UA Eats is so convincing that I might share half a ravioli and half a ratatouille with my lunch mate if I ever get the chance to be there. Restaurant Gordon Ramsay is my destination goal to try, if I ever travel to UK.
This guy is allergic to shellfish...he made a wise choice
His expressions is killing me! He looks disgusted yet says it's yummy 😂
Very good review. Thank you.
Love your show!
Me too, but that bug ;-)

Thank you! Love this! I'm on a Gordon Ramsey binge on youtube. ❤🌹😊
Great review!
Thank you for sharing your Restaurant Gordon Ramsay experience. Not cheap by any means, but as a RUclipsr, you can write part of it off. As for the meal, it looked simply amazing. Too bad the portion was not a bit larger.
That is right , it is business so one can write it off on takes. Of course you can take a loss for the first 3 years I believe. There is a hot dog stand 10 miles from the Hawaiian For Seasons where I would like to stay I can give an assessment of the resort and the hot dog.
Yeah just like DSP
The thing about these sorts of "high end" restaurants - you go for the experience more than the food itself really. While normally, the food is incredibly good in places like this, it's all about the experience of being there, being told everything in the dish, how it's made sometimes, specific cutlery or dishes for each course, etc. And while depending on the menu, you can get 8, 10, 12, even more courses and get full pretty easily even with the small portions most of the time. For the "average joe" spending $350 on a tasting menu such as this, with very small portions and a very narrow choice of food each course has, it's usually seen as just for "rich people" or people who want to show off (flex I guess the kids say these days lol).
All that being said, I've had the pleasure of eating at restaurants such as this before and I hate the saying "don't knock it till you try it" but in this regard - I totally agree. I've had culinary training (at the Culinary Institute of America) and know what goes into a fine dining experience and it is NOT easy work and it's certainly not for the faint of heart. These chefs and cooks and servers and everyone work their asses off to make the "experience" something memorable. And that's why I always recommend people, if they can, do something like this at least once in their life.
Matt Abe is incredibly well regarded as a chef in his own right. In terms of 3 star and central London that was good value. Hope you enjoy your trip!
There were bugs on his food...he should have gotten it for free.
Excellent video. Great job. My kind of place.
It looked delicious. I would love to go to his restaurant in London. Thanks for taking me there for now!
It would be out of my price range. But what a wonderful experience..and food looked so delicious…
Brilliant choice. Expensive but quality is always reassured. High quality end food attracts thousands of viewers and new subs. Keep it up. Love the Game of Thrones reference.
Quality? he had bugs on his food. They can't even make sure it's bug free before sending it out.
All looked amazing service excellent. A treat indeed. Great video ua and tina.
Best review on this channel yet.
One of my favourite youtubers is in my back yard! Completely unexpected. Love it.
You should do a collab with Gary Eats. He's mentioned you on his channel a few times.
This would be good!
Yes! Gary taking him around for Sunday roast, fish and chips, or the best toffee pudding in London. Would be fabulous!
@11:41 THAT BUG IS RAW!!!!
Where is it? I can't see it.
@@edntz it took me about four viewings to see it but its there. If you look right at the center of the video you can see a tiny, light green bug circle and then make its way down a dark green leaf.
@@RobRochon I see it. It's so creepy!

thats out of this World, a big Thank you
Really amazing video
@UA
These "starters" or "free appetizer" as you have called ithem at other places is actually called an Amuse Bouche
@@Abefroman-lq3md Yeah and he was also able to quit his day job and now can even travel to Europe cause of this channel so I'd say he's doing pretty good still
Little green bug on the food 11:41
Wow I had to watch it a few times to catch that!
I don't think there was or they would of added it to the bill.
Bonus protein lolol
Lol ive never had a bug in my food even from low end places, i guess they were serious when they said fresh spring taste 😅
2 stars!
Hey great video man, as a guy who is reading to become a chef, this video gave a really nice perspective of some of the high end dishes there are.
I have only eaten at Ramsay Burger but this must have been an amazing experience! Thank you for sharing it with us UA.
The classiest & most entertaining learning lesson episode on this channel thus far 👍 Absolutely devine
Thank you!
"Not bad for a failed soccer player from scotland" 💀💀💀💀💀
He had too retire due too a serious knee injury , he never failed, get your facts right .
Thanks UA. This restaurant is on my bucket list…maybe drop by next time I’m in London ❤
Last night we had dinner at Gordon’s Hells Kitchen Miami locatation and it was excellent. Thank you for another great video!
am i tripping or was there a green bug on the potato meal
Mister25german, Good eye, great catch. I had to watch the video a second and third time on a 75 in TV, to actually see this thing but you are correct sir, there was a live bug walking on his asparagus and the other green vegetables.
What time in the video was this?
Can you post a timestamp so we can all see this?? Thanks
@@xneapolisx 11:41
Extra protein...
I don't usually agree with the cliché complains about "muh portion sizes" because you're eating 5-7 courses after all so it all adds up to a substantial meal in the end.
That said, those two slices of steak were ridiculous even by haute cuisine standards.
I'm surprised they gave a knife. Like what for? It was already bite sized lmao.
Glad you previewed this type of dining ❤ I hope you enjoyed not my cup of tea portions are way too small but I guess that's how it goes and that type of situation and I understand it❤
100$ that steak was cooked sous vide...
You should have cut the cheese thing in half so we can see the inside. lol
But it was smaller than a ping pong ball!
exceptional review
I am so pleased you enjoyed the experience.
These places should welcome RUclipsrs; it’s honestly free publicity for them!
I agree but I kinda get it from their perspective. If you already are a very prestigious restaurant you don't have much to gain and everything to lose if a RUclipsr posts a bad review. Otherwise places like this tend to only allow RUclipsrs who are vetted in advance and they schedule your visit. That's why I just show up unannounced so I can pass as a tourist and always give honest reviews
Yeah because they definitely struggle without it 😂
@@uaeatsyou shouldn’t be filming unless you get the business and other diner’s consent. You think you’re doing a surprise visit to be unbiased but you’re actually being rude and invasive.
LOL
No.
What a convoluted mindset 😊@@trollzone1
They definitely do not need any publicity, and the people that eat there do not want to be filmed. If they are filmed they usually do not come back.
Have you seen "The Menu" movie? I'd be paranoid to go to a really nice place, haha! I missed the premiere as usual, but loved the vid. Thanks UA, have a great rest of the weekend! PS: Those tiny portions for that price are ridiculous though, I'd almost want to be s'mored after that 😜
I love that movie! Hopefully I don't resemble the foodie snob character too much haha. Portions indeed are not large (esp the steak) but to be fair it's many courses and you definitely will be full by the end
@@uaeats no way you come across that way, I'm sure you'd hear it from us or Tina if so, haha. Thanks again!
Went to his restaurant when it was at London hotel in nyc and loved it . I visited London when I was in the marines in 81 on a navy ship and it was not a restaurant town back then. British food isn't popular my grandmother is British and joke about it but I loved her yorkshire pudding Sunday roast when I visited her. What a difference now . Has times changed
So glad you enjoyed it UA! We have eaten here several times and it never fails to impress… fantastic service, professional and discrete, but not at all pretentious…. I rate the lobster ravioli I had there as one of my all time favourite dishes…! Glad you are enjoying your trip over here…..! Safe travels….! 👍
Did your visit also come with a free complimentary green bug?
Be honest - did you go to McDonald's afterwards? 😜
He said he felt pretty full so i dunno...but i know i would've lmao.
You'd be surprised how much meals like this will fill you up. I know the typical American viewpoint is "small portions mean not enough food" but when it comes to restaurants like this, they're doing all of that for a reason. I've had a number of similar meals at higher end restaurants and have never left hungry
The extended time to finish your meal helps you feel fuller on less food.
@@llife9736 I think people forget these types of tasting menus can have seven-plus courses. At that many courses, you're definitely full.
@@Sacto1654we saw all the courses. My man paid 300 bucks for some veggies, a 2 ounce piece of fish, few bites of steak and a small dessert. Tasting menu or not you should leave feeling like you got your moneys worth.
'Praline' is a form of caramel...
Great job with describing everything! Me and my girl love watching your videos, greetings from North Jersey, we are basically your neighbors man haha :)
Looking at you makes me remember the first time I’ve worked in a Michelin star restaurant and tried what I had to master it blew my mind at that time
I really enjoyed this video, UA. Looking forward to more.
I hope you and Tina are enjoying your time in Beijing. I do hope you do a McDonald's review.
I will try!
Come on , he has just completed his heavenly experience.!
I think the whole dinner would just constitute an appetizer for me. I would actually need a main entree. Or leave there starving. No wonder rich people are so thin. Lol.
You are the reaSON BUFFETS WERE MADE...GET A LIFE!!
That's more than 1500 calories on that total meal.
If that's just a starter for you then you must eat hugh meals
@@ieditedmyname289 Highly doubt it. Unless you're going to consume the entire butter.
Probably best ordering 3 course ala carte and adding a full dish. You should be suitably stuffed full.
I’ve eaten here and the food really is fantastic. Glad you enjoyed it.
fabulous, would love to check this place out :) really liked the welcome canapes and the plates were fantastic. The presentation was incredible as well as im sure the incredible flavours of the dishes!. Would be great to go for a birthday or special occasion
Gordon Ramsey was brought up in England, not Scotland
Correct, but his heritage is in fact Scottish.

UA, you analyze everything so thoroughly which is one of the things I like about your videos, but I’m afraid you missed this (a live bug on your food). I’m assuming you just ate it.

@@kaspermj I am beyond disgusted. Makes me happy i can't afford this 3 star michelin meal lmao.
That main course steak is like 2 bites. You got ripped off large U A!
it's about experience rather than filling your gut with food. Also, with so many dishes in the set, you really don't need a substantial main course. All in all, that set it enough to satisfy a hungry adult. And high end cuisine is not about getting stuffed and overeating.
@@coronerxd When coughing up almost $300 US for meal only experience to feel is one of being fleeced!
@@dggratton to each their own. I would rather pay 300 for a meal that I will remember for the rest of my life, than 100 for a mediocre and forgettable meal.

You answered your own question/comment. A fine dining restaurant is not about "filling up" or filling your gullet. It's about taste and exciting your senses. Don't go here if you are famished for sure. (I've walked away from a fine dining restaurant still hungry too.)

A Full Day Reviewing GORDON RAMSAY RESTAURANTS in LONDON!:
ruclips.net/video/2wjjpBbch1E/видео.html
looks an amazing experience. As your in london, dont forget to go see wembley stadium, Fa Cup final was there, although you wont find any 3* food anywhere near it 🙂
These 3 michelin restaurants are not for people who are equally satisfied by a hamburger, which is most people who subscribe to you.
It’s for me….peasant
Luckily for those people, Ramsay has a burger place in Las Vegas that serves giant portions
lol , ua’s audience is “not equally satisfied by a hamburger”. We just like food and ua.
To each their own... if you can't tell the difference between a $20 or $200 wine, get the $20 wine. Nothing wrong with that. Everyone's pallets are not the same.
It's hilarious how UA constantly bows to Gordon Ramsey. UA, he's hardly there. You didn't mention the Chef de Cuisine, Matt Abé, even once throughout this video. It's his sweat and tears and sleepless nights along with the dozens of other chefs and front of house staff that made this dining experience, "the best you ever had." Three cheers to Matt Abé and to everyone at Restaurant Gordon Ramsey. 🙌🏼
Hmm... I did mention him?
@@uaeatsYes, you did mention Matt Abé, but it got lost compared to the number of times you mentioned Gordon Ramsay.
Looked like a great experience
Considering the details and exquisite look of the starers the price seemed quite reasonable.
You flew from Newark to London when you were already in Scotland? Huh...
I mean indirectly i suppose.
No matter how expensive the food is , it all ends up as 💩
thanks very informative 😂
