Our waiter was brilliant, always ensure our needs were met and that everyone had what they needed. The room was brilliant and all our guests said how much they loved the space. A fantastic evening!

Great service, excellent food (we had two chefs in our party who have worked in Michelin starred kitchens and both loved the food) all in a beautiful room. Would reiterate, service was outstanding (thank you Tom) and the events team are super helpful. Everything ran like clockwork and we all had a great evening.
Nothing. All brilliant

About L'Escargot

L'Escargot is the oldest French restaurant in London, located in the heart of Soho.

For over 90 years we have hosted the great and the good in our beautiful Georgian Townhouse.

Le Salon Vert is the most elegant and enchanting room, with 16th-century gold encrusted ceiling and mirror, look below to the streets of Soho with a glass of our Laurent Perrier Champagne in hand.

With no surprise, this is our most demanded private room.
