Quick info
About Lucky Cat by Gordon Ramsay - Mayfair
Lucky Cat by Gordon Ramsay is a Pan-Asian restaurant on Grosvenor Sq in Mayfair, set in a room styled after 1930s Tokyo drinking dens. The kitchen works a robata grill alongside sushi, with grilled octopus, smoked shortrib and Orkney scallop on a menu of 35 dishes that also runs to tuna tataki, sliced hiramasa kingfish and spicy tuna maki. Recurring plates include mushroom dumplings, udon noodles, egg fried rice and Wagyu nigiri, with a Japanese sirloin steak among the mains and mango cheesecake to close. Vegetarian dishes are available, and the Ureshii cocktail runs on the drinks list. Guests can sit at the sushi counter and watch the chefs at work, with table service elsewhere in the room. The restaurant takes walk-ins rather than bookings.

“I had very high expectations for Lucky Cat, and while some dishes were good , the experience was a bit mixed overall. The Wagyu nigiri was niceand definitely one of the highlights of the meal. …”

“My wife and I came here for a date night, and we had an absolutely incredible experience at Lucky Cat by Gordon Ramsay - Mayfair. From the moment you walk in, the interior and overall atmosphere set the mood for a special evening out. While it is on the higher price end, you are paying for exceptional quality rather than just the celebrity name. Every course hit the mark: Starters & Mains: Absolutely exquisite flavors across the board. Japanese Sirloin Steak: We tried this for the first time, and it was unbelievably tender—it practically melted in our mouths. Dessert: Hands down one of the softest, most delicate desserts I’ve ever tasted. The mango cheesecake with real pieces of fresh mango had a subtle, rich flavor profile with a wonderful hint of smokiness. The crowd, the guests, and the team hosting and attending to us were all wonderful, making the whole vibe feel vibrant and upscale. Highly recommended for a special date or celebration!”

“We had several vegetarian dishes, and every single one was excellent. The udon noodles were outstanding, and the egg fried rice was my personal highlight—a recommendation from Fiona that turned out to be absolutely perfect. …”

“I had a magical time at Lucky Cat Mayfair! As soon as I arrived, Harmony greeted me with a smile and made me feel at ease in an environment that is unfamiliar to me (being my first time at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant, or any restaurant of the sort). I was seated at the sushi counter, which was fascinating - I love getting to watch chef's do what they do best. The atmosphere in Lucky Cat was very calm, and made me comfortable even though I was dining alone. Food-wise, I ordered 3 small plates and the chocolate truffles after. All of the above were wonderful and filling, especially the mushroom dumplings (they were to die for). The 'Ureshii' cocktail was interesting but tasted really good - happiness is correct! If you're wanting a treat, I would highly recommend you visit Lucky Cat. I think it would be the perfect location for a date, or to take friends. I will be back, thanks all :)”

“We had such a fantastic experience at Lucky Cat Mayfair! We came as a party of 7 for my friend’s birthday! She absolutely loved it and had an incredible time! The food was absolutely amazing—every dish was full of flavour and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was just as impressive, with a vibrant yet relaxed vibe that made the whole evening feel special. Inside was beautifully decorated high end aesthetics. A special shoutout to our waitress, Meida, who took excellent care of us throughout the night. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The hosts were also incredibly welcoming and made us feel well looked after from the moment we arrived.”
