Randall & Aubin is a buzzing Soho haven boasting a modern British seafood menu, stunning marble tables, and a disco ball that sets the perfect party vibe.
"Excellent seafood and a disco ball in the dining room—Randall & Aubin is a Soho institution that has big party energy. You can’t go wrong with the native or Irish oysters, but know that if you’re rolling with a group it’s worth getting involved in the plat du fruits de mer, which includes everything from rock oysters to a whole dressed crab. The hospitality is spot on here—they'll swoop in at just the right time to replace your plate when it's becoming too full of shells, but aren't overbearing." - rianne shlebak, jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, daisy meager
"Contrary to what Gloria Gaynor might think, it is entirely possible to have fun without the presence of a disco ball. But they do help. Soho seafood institution Randall & Aubin not only has a disco ball in the dining room but it’s also one of the only places in London where you can casually order 24 huitres—that’s oysters in French, say it with the confidence of Gloria. You can’t go wrong with the native or Irish oysters, but know that if you’re rolling with a group it’s worth getting involved in the plat de fruits de mer, which includes everything from six rock oysters to a whole dressed crab.

"Randall and Aubin’s resplendent window display on Brewer Street in Soho fixates onlookers in the way that the neighbourhood’s sex shops once did. The restaurant remains one of central London’s most reliable restaurants to eat fresh shellfish — a full platter costs £44.50 per person and can be upgraded with a half lobster for an additional £22.50. Its white tiling and chess board floor recalls a seafood bar of yesteryear, which, in a changing and increasingly homogenised Soho, is something that should be cherished." - Adam Coghlan, James Hansen, Jonathan Nunn
