   This is one of the greatest of all London restaurants, made even more enjoyable by it's lack of show and ostentation. It's size creates the impression that one is dining at home with friends. It is true that the tables are tightly squeezed together but this does not impact one's enjoyment . Each mouthful of food was more delicious than the last. Same for the wines which we had by the glass. One criticism which surely can be dealt with immediately - which it must! How can such a classy place cheapen itself by sticking on a £6 supplement for a very run of the mill selection of cheeses - all of them available at in the cheese department at Waitrose down the road. It really did spoil the overall impression. Even if the cheeses were brought in by hand from France or Italy every day, a surcharge like this is a terrible mistake! Please change this policy and if you want more interesting cheeses then why ot get them delivered from Paxton & Whitfield in Jermyn Street. I hope you take heed of this observation - and to future diners, if you do not - don't order the cheese!

   Exceptionally executed cooking, everything was completely delicious and absolutely on point, but our waiter was the standout of the evening. Literally perfect service, completely faultless.

   Amazing food and good service all in a lovely dining room. Very minor criticisms - the tables are very close together, the food is very very rich, and it is expensive.

   Fantastic bistro style restaurant, with exceptionally well executed and tasty food. The small bites (lollipops and bon bone) are a delicious way to start the meal. I wish there was a little theatre or fun in the meal e.g. with the alcohol in the Crepe Suzette, but by no means is the meal boring. Looking forward to returning again soon.

   Great wine list. Attentive service and French inspired food. Eel vol au vent really hit the mark

   My husband and I had a Valentine's day lunch at 64 Goodge Street and it exceeded all our expectations. The service was friendly, knowledgable and good humoured. I can't speak too highly of the quality of each course and the wine. It was simply delicious and we were not at any point rushed or made to feel that we had to return the table after s a certain amount of time which seems to be the way most restaurants operate these days, before delivering a hefty bill! 64 Goodge Street was certainly not cheap but I would say it was very good value for the quality. Highly recommeneded.

   Can't fault 64 for their welcome, the charm of their servers and the elan of their cooking. We arrived for lunch at 12.45 and left three hours later, feeling well content with life (which is no mean feat in these troubled times).

   The food was generally good. My halibut was mushy which shocked me since everyone else’s meals were very good. Left disappointed. Table clothes would go a long way to absorbing sound. I couldn’t hear what my friends were saying. A star means little. There are so many good restaurants.
