Langan's Brasserie reviews
Very good food and a great atmosphere. Had a most enjoyable meal with friends and everyone commented on how good the whole experience was.
by saucyland (10 reviews), 13 Feb 2008Good food and efficient service but the maitre d' could take some lessons in manners from the cloakroom attendant.
by coombes, 13 Sep 2007Don't know why there are so many negative comments about this brasserie. Absolutely one of the best in London for atmosphere, service and properly cooked unpretentious food (the swordfish is excellent). This place is a fine substitute for any of my favourite Paris bistros or brasseries. It almost gives Brasserie Flo a run for its money!
by kejibabe, 21 Mar 2007Langan's is an institution. I went the second week after it opened and have been many times since over the thirty plus years. The menu hasn't changed much but it still delivers good quality food, the ambiance is great and the waiters are generally good fun. Every time I go there it is packed out, despite various critics giving it bad reviews - they just don't get what it is about!
by John Marsham, 18 Mar 2007It's an upmarket greasy spoon trading on its former
glory, like so many other old restaurants in London.
This restaurant has lost all its charm and ambiance dramatically over the last 10 years. The food is appalling - microwaved, not fresh and all dishes are swimming in butter and salt. A much more satisfying meal can be had at any other nearby establishment - Automat, Cecconis, The Wolseley...
The management is beyond poor. It needs to put in some damage limitation now (perhaps it's too late) to lure back the kind of customer Langan's enjoyed in the past.
Absolutely out of this world. Great environment, with a real buzz, and the food is really special. Top marks.
