Randall & Aubin

I went to the restaurant with my bf for my birthday dinner under one of my friend's suggestions. Couldn't be more happy and pleased with the whole experience. We booked our table through the booking online. Our reservation was at 7.30 pm on a Tuesday.When we arrived we didn't have to wait. Our waiter, Frank, was amazing, welcoming, knowledgeable and efficient. We ordered 2 starters (Hand picked Devon crab, rock shrimp tempura) and 2 mains(spaghetti alle vongole and a main of the day), for which we asked for advice, and were really happy with. We got 2 glasses of white wine to accompany everything and that was good too. The service was fast and spot on and the food was very fresh, tasty and amazing!!! Couldn't recommend enough this place. To be honest for being a seafood place I wouldn't say was very expansive. For the overall experience the price was just right!! Highly recommended and I will definitely be back!

We were celebrating my husbands 65th birthday, and we were made to feel like royalty! It was super to get a window seat to people watch while enjoying our lunch. David had the steak, and I ate cod on artichokes. Oh, and the truffle fries are to die for. Finished with the cherry tart. The whole meal was perfectly delicious. Honestly, we didn't want to leave! A wonderful restaurant for a celebration - we highly recommend it!

Simply amazing seafood. Everything was super fresh, delicately prepared and presented with passion. Whatever your thing when eating from the sea, you just have to start with a dozen oysters! The mixed rock platter shows how the different tastes and textures come to life. The flavours of the starters just melted, then it was time for the main event - whole crab. Sublime. All the staff were incredibly helpful, courteous and friendly. Can’t recommend highly enough.

We have been coming to this restaurant for years. We loved the calamari and lobsters here, the calamari used to come in a big plate with the salsa sauce covering the bottom of the bowl while the calamari is still crispy, it was ecstasy, this has changed a bit now, the salsa sauce now in a very tiny bowl and not enough to make calamari feel less greasy. The lobster is still good. Our waiter was very nice, but the manager seemed a bit picky with who he has a conversation or smile with, even if we instigated a chat. Too bad the old staff that knew us aren’t there anymore, felt like we didn’t get the special Randall and Aubin treatment we used to. Would have been 5 stars a couple of years ago.

First visit to Randall and Aubin and it will not be my last. The food was amazing, my starter of Rock shrimp tempura with smoked tofu was outstanding, the tempura was so light with a slight crispness to it. The shrimps were cooked to perfection and I’m not a fan of tofu but the smokiness has made me want to try it again. This was also the first time that I have tried crab and it was wonderful, the experience of getting the meat out of the shell was fun and was certainly a show for the people walking past. The taste was surprising, I expected it to taste of the sea with some grit but it was lovely and clean. The sticky toffee pudding was the largest slice I’ve had in a restaurant and was worth the extra workouts to burn it off.

It’s always a pleasure to return to Randall & Aubin!It is one of the best restaurants in London in my opinion. The food is absolutely delicious, wholeheartedly recommend the seafood. Great fresh oysters with a current selection of Gallagher and Cooley Gold rocks. The music is superb, the interior is very chic and charming, gorgeous to visit in any season; however, gets very very beautiful around Christmas time. The staff are always friendly and with a big, natural smile on. I love everything about this place, honestly, you have to try it.

Had an amazing time today at the restaurant. Service was amazing, thank you to Robin and Anthony who treated us as royalty on Coronation weekend for our 30th awarding anniversary. If you are looking for good food, attentive service, quirky setting this is defiantly the place to go if you love sea food.
