  • Pour Decisions | Tequila

    £80.00 per person

    28 Feb 2025 only
    Like tequila? Us too. Come join us for an evening that champions, celebrates and heroes our favourite Latin American spirit as we partner with legendary brand Patron on an exclusive dinner series. Plus, we’re ecstatic to share the triumphant return of Cafe Patron XO to Gaucho – we are the first restaurant in the UK to welcome it home. The coffee-based liquor has left a tequila-shaped hole on our shelves for the past three years, but you can look forward to a shot of the sweet digestif to round off your experience with us. For £80pp, the tequila-tinged menu includes four courses of Gaucho classics paired with a Chimichurri Margarita, signature Ginger Tommy's and Classic Margarita. And to finish, a shot of Cafe Patron XO.

    Lovely lunch out. Good value for a two course meal. More time and it would have been three. Mind the jalapeños though. - my prawn starter was hotter than anticipated!!

    The food was amazing! I had butternut squash ravioli with Parmesan (the Parmesan was vegetarian which is something that most restaurants don’t provide). My partner and son both had steak and said it was one of the best they had ever had. Dessert (pancakes) were delicious too. The waiter Zac was excellent. Diolch 😊

    Cannot fault the service at any point from entering the restaurant to leaving. Very dog friendly - can honestly say we have never before been asked how the dog would like their steak cooked! Food excellent and good value, but let down by drinks prices- specifically the wine in comparison with the food prices, but that is my only negative.
