Gordon Ramsay was slammed for selling an £85 burger at his Harrods restaurant

Gordon Ramsay has been berated for selling an £85 burger at his Harrods restaurant.

The Gordon Ramsay Burger in central London sells a Wagyu burger for the astonishing amount.

The meal, which comes with Parmesan fries, includes a Japanese Wagyu beef patty, truffle Pecorino cheese, mushroom ragu, freshly shaved black truffle, porcini mushroom aioli, 12-year balsamic vinegar, and watercress.

But one fan has criticized the restaurant, saying the burger is ‘no better than a Big Mac’ – which costs just £3.69.

“Went to Gordon Ramsay Burger in Harrods yesterday and I must say it was a big disappointment,” Guildford’s Harry John White said on Twitter.

‘Slow and confused service, no check back and you would have thought I ordered a Big Mac not an 85 pound burger.

‘Nowhere near the standard I’ve come to expect from Gordon Ramsay restaurants’.

In addition, others have also commented on the high cost.

Another added: “Wait a minute. An £85 burger?’.

“I just noticed there’s a TV series called Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted. If Gordon were in the real world, he’d figure out how to make a burger for less than 85 pounds,” said a third.

The meat for the burger comes from Harrods butchers and other menu items range from £22.50 for a veggie burger to £35 for a lamb burger.

Other menu items include £12.50 truffle fries and £13.50 milkshake.

It’s not the first time the celebrity chef’s exorbitant prices have landed him in trouble.

Gordon was recently criticized for bringing his three-Michelin-star restaurant Down Under for nearly $800 per person.

The ticketed restaurant, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, took over Australian chef Matt Moran’s fine dining Aria in the heart of Sydney from May 8-10 to showcase the “very best Australian seasonal produce.”

However, tickets for the once-in-a-lifetime experience cost $495 per person, which includes a seven-course meal, with a premium wine pairing option for $295, bringing the total to $790 each.

An Aria spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia the staggering price was set because it was the high-end restaurant’s first time venturing internationally and the menu was personally curated by Ramsay and Moran.

The menu featured signature dishes from Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, including shellfish ravioli and pecan dessert

News of the event quickly spread on social media, with guests slamming the outrageous prize.

At first, many seemed excited to visit and bring a friend, but were turned away after seeing the cost.

“For almost $500 per person, the food should be amazing,” one woman commented on Facebook.

In September 2020, he was also slammed online for Sunday lunch at his Savoy Grill, with diners labeling it a “kid’s portion” and wondering where the rest of the trimmings were.

Gordon took to his Instagram page to share a photo of the roast, which he serves as part of a £40 two-course menu.

At the time, he described “the tenderloin with all the trimmings” as “absolutely stunning.”

However, several of his followers were unimpressed with the three carrots and roast potatoes offered – one person asked, “Where’s the rest?”

Another asked, “Is that a child’s portion?”

The meal included a single slice of beef, three roast potatoes, three carrots, plus broccoli and a Yorkshire pudding.

The restaurant offers a set menu – with two courses for £40 and three courses for £45 – with dishes such as lobster cocktail, smoked salmon or omelette as a starter.

Diners are told online: ‘Our chefs’ adhere to premium local produce and precise culinary technique means diners enjoy the delights of roast sirloin, seasonal vegetables and Yorkshire pudding, followed by a classic Savoy dessert – Baked Alaska.

“Topped off with your choice of a Bloody Mary or fruit cocktail, this two-course experience is one deluxe roast you won’t soon forget!”
