Gaucho’s Richmond location is arguably one of the most tranquil and charming restaurants of the luxurious Argentinian franchise, set right on the banks of the River Thames. Centrally located in the quaint borough of Richmond, close to the lovely Deer Park, theatre, and Kew gardens, Gaucho could not be better situated. Transport links from the nearby underground station and local taxis are readily available too.
The restaurant features a striking riverside terrace, ideal for alfresco dining with views of one of London’s oldest Plane trees. Inside, the glass-panelled dining room provides panoramic vistas of Richmond Bridge and Petersham Meadows, creating a tranquil backdrop for lunch or dinner. The interiors reflect the elegance of modern Argentina, with a stylish and comfortable design that complements the natural beauty of the surroundings.
The Gaucho Richmond menu combines the two best things from Argentina: quality grass-fed beef from the vast Pampas region and brilliant wine. Just order a superb bottle of Argentinian Barbera red while you watch the sun go down, and tuck into fantastic free-range cuts of beef with a choice of sauces. You’ll also spot a selection of marinated steaks, spiced with the likes of mustard seed, black pepper, chimichurri, and chipotle. Aside from beef, the menu also offers the likes of aubergine Milanese, grilled chicken salad, and pumpkin ricotta ravioli.
Gaucho Richmond is also great if you’re dining on a budget, thanks to a very affordable set menu available as two or three courses, offering starters like prawn chicharron and a three cheese empanada, with mains like rump and chips, fried haddock, and dulce de leche to finish. There’s an evening set menu too, so you can get your hands on a great deal for dinner time reservations as well.
