The Gay Hussar
About The Gay Hussar
The Gay Hussar can be said, without a shadow of a doubt, to be one of London’s most famous restaurants. A long time haunt of top politicos and media types – well, it is in the centre of swinging Soho after all – this fine restaurant has been flying the Hungarian flag over the English capital for more than fifty years now. Cosy and comfortable but certainly not without elegance, The Gay Hussar’s dining room is anything but generic with higgledy piggledy rows of books lining the room and endless caricatures of notorious public figures fuelling thousands of conversations. An interesting range of authentic Hungarian dishes and matching Hungarian wines complete this unusual experience.

We had a lovely meal at the Gay Hussar, a fascinating restaurant. The food/drink offer was excellent value for money and the service was very good.
Once again excellent food and great value for Soho. Goulash was spot on. Service perfect. Many thanks.
My party of 6 were very pleased with our visit to The Gay Hussar. Soho. The decor was comfortably and interesting with the sketches around the walls of well-known figures who have dined. The food was plentiful, tasty and just right for a cold day. The staff were pleasant, helpful and efficient. I last visited over 40 years ago, but would be happy to go again quite soon, particularly with 50% off.
We went in a party of 6 and had a great evening at the Gay Hussar - the staff were lovely and the atmosphere was intimate but lively. The food was good and great value with the toptable 50% off. Portions - and dishes- are hearty and everything was tasty. I had the asparagus salad then the seabass and really enjoyed it. With 50% off food, 3 courses and a bottle each of house wine came to £28 each, including service.
This Hungarian restaurant has been around for decades and with good reason: its food is fabulous, its ambience charming and traditional is the best sense! Each dish is carefully prepared and is heartily recommended!
