It’s called Restaurant Gordon Ramsay (yes, that name again). But the location is the real star. It’s being built right on the banks of the River Thames, near the Savoy Hotel. Imagine the view: water, boats, maybe a swan getting yelled at by a passing chef.
The vibe is supposed to be “smart casual.” Which is chef-speak for “yes, you can wear jeans, but please don’t insult the food.” Knowing Ramsay, the dress code will be silently judged by a maître d’ with a perfect side part.
Wait, isn’t he already everywhere?
He totally is. The man has like 60 restaurants, a TV empire, and a podcast where he probably yells at microphones. But this one feels different. It’s his first riverside restaurant in London. You know what that means? Patio season. Outdoor dining. And a very high chance of seagulls stealing a £50 piece of beef wellington.
Let’s be real: Gordon probably has a seagull-shouting protocol already written. “You! Yes, you with the feathers! Get out!” I would pay to watch that.
The menu is classic Ramsay. Think British ingredients, but cooked with that French-obsessed precision. Expect beef, lamb, and a dessert called “Textures of Chocolate” that takes three days to plate. Also, expect the bread basket to arrive with a warning: “Salt on the butter is non-negotiable.”

And the wine list? Oh, it’s going to be intimidating. There will be a bottle for £15 and a bottle for £15,000. The sommelier will know if you’re lying about your budget. They always know.
