The activists sat at the tables holding menus showing the environmental cost of the food served at the restaurant, which was forced to close for the night.
One of the protesters said, "Whilst Gordon Ramsay serves food costing a minimum of £155 per person, more than two million people are relying on food banks in this cost-of-living crisis."
According to the group, the answer to food insecurity, the cost of living crisis and the environmental crises was to adopt a plant-based food system.
A spokeswoman for Restaurant Gordon Ramsay said: "Everyone is entitled to their opinions and beliefs.
"However, to force your way into a restaurant, disturbing hard-working staff going about their jobs and ruining the evening of guests who have waited months for their reservations is incredibly inappropriate and deeply disrespectful."
Although the police were called, no arrests were made as the climate activists left the premises after the restaurant shut down for the night.
