La SPOT - Soho

Came for dinner with a friend over the weekend and we had a good experience overall. The presentation of the Octopus Hot Dog and the two brioche buns were simply remarkable, and they tasted quite nice as well. We were just a little bit disappointed that the brioche buns weren’t toasted though they felt super soft as we bit into them. They would have tasted a lot better if the brioche buns were toasted and crispy on the outside. The Truffle Fries were freshly made and still piping hot when served. The Padron Peppers were delicious though we found them to be a bit too salty after having a few more. Nice vibe in the restaurant during dinner time, would definitely love to come back to try out their lunch menu sometime in the near future.

Highly recommend for any semi-private special events ! I hosted a birthday dinner in the upstairs mezzanine for 13 people, and it couldn’t have been better. The space is cozy, feels private, and can be arranged however you like - I had a long dinner table plus a wine table for welcome drinks. After reviewing all the restaurants on Charlotte Street, the combination of space, team, and reasonable pricing made La Spot the clear choice. The team was incredible. I was free to decorate as I wished, and they even provided mini vases to help with the setup. Service was thoughtful and attentive throughout. The food exceeded expectations - absolutely delicious, beautifully curated, and dietary needs were handled seamlessly. A huge thank you to Christina (the GM) and the whole team for making the evening so special and memorable !

This is one of the best places for delicious food at a great price. Brioche was soft and buttery, seafood was made to perfection and the interiors and ambience is top notch. Not to mention the wine bar downstairs! Staff is super friendly and accommodating and overall I just can’t recommend it enough. We will definitely be back!

Tried the Octopus Hot Dog 🌭 – a unique twist featuring slow-cooked octopus, onion marmalade, Makato cheese, crispy potato, and paprika, all in a toasted brioche. Note the octopus was quite chewy so I wasn’t able to bite it off but had to cut it with cutlery. . We also shared: 🧆 Jamón Croquettes – creamy Iberian ham bites with alioli 🥔 Patatas Bravas – classic hand-cut fries with brava sauce and alioli 🍟 Truffle Fries – topped with white truffle alioli & Manchego 🍗 Chicken Brioche – pulled chicken with confit piquillo pepper & Briquele cheese in soft brioche . The food is generally your ‘fast food’ option, a bit greasy (at least the options we had). . 📍 LA SPOT, 18 Charlotte Street, Soho 🚇 Closest tube: Tottenham Court Road (5-min walk) 💷 Dishes range from £5–£16 . Tapas-style plates and a fun Soho vibe.

Absolutely fantastic spot! The food is amazing—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, perfect for both casual meals and special occasions. Prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality. Plus, the crowd is great—friendly and lively, adding to the overall experience. Highly recommend!

I was walking past on my way to university when I spotted this cozy place. I had been craving churros, so when I saw the menu, I made a mental note to check it out after class. The plating was stylish, and the taste was absolutely delicious! I will definitely revisit to enjoy more churros and sample other meals. I finished my visit with a glass of punchy, tropical, and wonderfully crisp Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand. Christina was our hostess, and I really appreciated the service!

It ticks all boxes: good food, reasonable prices, great staff, upbeat music. 2 plates should be ordered for a full lunch but brioches are generously filled. Good cheesecake too. One minor flaw: cheddar is a bit too heavy to be combined with a fatty meat like oxtail; octopus brioche sounds amazing so go for it.

Amazing service and incredible unique food. Would definitely visit again! Croquettes are a must have if you come here, perfect for lunch
