Had a booking at 7.45 was taken to our table around 7.50.enjoyed a shared starter and a main meal. We then ordered some dessert drinks. When they arrived at approximately 9.10 the waitress informed us we had 5 mins at the table then we would have so go downstairs to the bar, she brought the bill. She noted our disapproval and returned a few minutes later to say she could allow us another 10 mins! I really hadn't expected to have to vacate the table within 90 mins of sitting down. Spoilt the experience.

We came for a meal as a couple and found the food was falsely advertised and not worth the money. We ordered the buffalo mozzarella for starter which was £10.50 and came with a small size of mozzarella which tasted like nothing and a few tomatoes. My partner ordered the 'steak burger' which was not steak. He tasted my rump steak compared to his burger and it was quite obvious that the burger was not up to standard. We both ordered mac and cheese as a side which tasted like microwave mac and cheese from a tin. The straw fries were also cold and flavourless, would not recommend

we were a group of 4 two went for chicken and said it was nice and two of us went for steak my Ribeye £34.00 was shocking a very cheap piece of meat i could barley cut when i mentioned this to the Polish male Manager( possibly owner) he asked if i were using the knife the correct way.... the other steak a fillet was supposed to be well done but had blood oozing out of it disgusted with the service and the quality of the food we paid the £196 bill and left feeling absolutely Robbed. NEVER AGAIN...

“Unacceptable Service and Disregard for Neurodivergent Needs – A Thoroughly Disappointing Experience” When making a reservation, I informed the restaurant that both parties attending were autistic and had ADHD. I specifically requested a table that would allow us to enjoy our meal without sensory overload. On arrival, I was pleased to see that they had offered a spacious table that accommodated our sensory needs. Unfortunately, that’s where the positive experience ended. Issues Encountered: 1. Drinks Service: When I asked if they offered bottled beer, I was instead given a pint. Later, I found out they could have offered a schooner—something more manageable that would have suited our needs better. This lack of communication was disappointing. 2. Starter Misrepresentation: The menu lacked clarity. We ordered “mozzarella sticks,” only to be served chopped tomatoes with mozzarella on top—completely different from what we expected. 3. Excessive Wait Times: We waited over 40 minutes for our main courses without any updates from the staff. Given that I had made the restaurant aware of our neurodivergent needs in advance, this situation was particularly upsetting. Raising the issue of wait times with the staff would have been extremely uncomfortable for us. Our neurodivergence means that initiating conflict or even mild confrontation can be highly stressful and overwhelming. The fact that the staff did not proactively communicate the delay, despite being made aware of our circumstances, showed a lack of consideration and made us feel forgotten and unsupported during the meal. 4. Quality of Food: The main dishes were a letdown. As a steakhouse, I expected better. Both “medium rare” steaks were overcooked and far from enjoyable. For the price, this was unacceptable. 5. Hygiene: The toilets were in a deplorable state. One had vomit in it, and the other was smeared with feces. This was not just unpleasant—it was outright unhygienic. Overall Experience: I left feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, and upset. The poor service, misrepresented food, long wait times, and unhygienic facilities made the £124 bill feel like an insult. For two overcooked steaks, disappointing starters, and an unpleasant overall experience, this was an absolute waste. I would not recommend Chop House Steakhouse to anyone, especially those with specific needs. They may talk the talk, but they failed to deliver in every other respect.

Chop House is a steak house with a pleasant atmosphere. Friendly and professional staff, but above all the meat we ate was of a high standard. I had a ribeye which I recommend rare. Prices are high as in all of Edinburgh, but it's worth it to get away from the fried food in the pubs for a bit. (Meat + side dish + wine approximately 50 pounds).

The service took a while before even asking about starters, when they arrived with food, they arrived at different times for the group of people we were with, so some starters began to go colder than I would like. For the mains, for the price you pay for a rib eye you only get the steak on the plate with nothing other than a tiny serving of "bone marrow gravy" which just tasted like saltier bistro gravy granules. The steak was supposed to be medium rare, but instead was rare. However, it tasted like burnt charcoal, no meat flavour and zero juice coming from the steak while being rare???? I don't think the steak was even basted in butter or anything. The chips as a side were the most artificial tasting chips I've had in a while at the price it's almost 1 quid per chip!?! Everything lacked salt or just any flavour whatsoever. For the price I believe it is a joke that the food was that appalling! Finally they added the service charge for the bill which considering how little the staff were present or took ages to clear the table, I almost regret paying it. In terms of the atmosphere, the music was slightly quieter than a pub but louder than a typical restaurant has music which doesn't set a great atmosphere. The lighting was good to give the credit where due. I wish I could give a lower review especially for the bloody price

The experience was lovely and the food was amazing but not quite worthy of the price. For the money I would expect "wow" not "mastery of the basics". 10£ cheaper, or a slightly more innovative/challenging menu, and it would be 5 stars.

The food was good but the experience was nowhere near what you would expect for a restaurant in this price bracket. I sent the below as private feedback and was offered "a complimentary round of drinks & 10% off your bill, if you visit again". I let them know that I didn't think this really amounted to a fair adjustment for the experience they provided but haven't heard back. I had a booking for a table of 5 last night. I have eaten at Market Street a couple of times over the years and fairly regularly in Bruntsfield when it was open. Last night was my son's 20th birthday celebration, he likes a steak, and we wanted a special meal. The service was not at all what I have experienced from you before or what you would expect from a meal in this price bracket. We didn't hold back - had cocktails, wine, starters and your most expensive sharing steak. It was one of those restaurant experiences where you have to flag down a server who is determinedly looking down or the other way. No doubt they were understaffed, but it was quite deflating to bring the family for an extravagent celebration meal and have to work hard to get a drinks order in so long after being seated. We ordered food when the drinks arrived to avoid losing the server again. I asked for descriptions of the sharing cuts and was surprised when she didn't know. A colleague came and explained - perhaps I am mis-remembering but I seem to recall the team being pretty clear on the core product. I thought the lack of training was odd - 5 minutes would have been sufficient to learn the differences. We arrived maybe 7.05 and it was 8.20 before we got starters by which point some of the party were very hungry, and just before 9pm when we got mains. We followed the recommendation to have the Tommahawk 'medium' but what came was quite a bit rarer than that - I have a picture if you would like it. The food was great and we enjoyed the meal. The steaks were excellent and the oyster dressing superb. We had apologies from three different team members about waits - so they were clearly aware. When the bill came they had deducted an amount for the slow service, but I think around £8, which is honestly insulting. I paid the full amount rather than getting into a conversation then which wasn't in the spirit of a nice evening.

Mixed feelings about this place. It has a lot of potential, lovely setting, playing nice music and good design inside. Unfortunately the food is not the best. Very expensive choice of food. Meat arrives with the tiniest side of chips, no salad or veg with it. Other dishes include brugers which tasted similar to mcdonalds burgers and didn’t feel very special for £18. I wouldn’t recommend this place for fbe food. There’s better steak places in Edinburgh that give you more for your money! Staff were nice and accommodating although when we turned up at 1:45pm no one was there to welcome us, other clients were calling to get someone’s attention and we almost walked off.

Last visited a few years ago with our kids and was excellent. Just left this time disappointed. 2 fillet steaks were pretty chewy and for 40 quid each they should be nowhere near that. Maybe down to the cooking rather than the quality of the meat. Cardinal sin though was one of the kids meals which the chicken was undercooked. Luckily my wife noticed as I didn't. They replaced it but surprising lack of service recovery e.g. round of drinks etc. OK, kids ate free but that was their promotion not ours. Service was pretty slow also. 1.45 mins and that was with us constantly asking for dessert, bill etc. Shame as was good the previous time.

We had a great time at Chop House last night. We went as a family around 5 pm and our kids loved the food so much they couldn’t stop talking about it. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly, which is great when you have 3 noisy kids aged 5-10. We were brought crayons and activity sheets for them and they got stuck straight in. We will definitely be back for another family dinner. Thank you Chop House.

If you want chewy, overpriced steaks - that’s the place. We had a party of over 10 people, so we pre-ordered all our food. Starters came out rather quickly, and yet one person who specifically mentioned several times that he’d like all his starters at once, to be served with the mains of others - got his starter one, and then other with the mains… But the mains, the mains came two hours since coming there. And that was only when I asked how long could we possibly wait, and long behold, just like by magic our mains got served. Just that the burger was dry, steaks chewy, and lobster felt like it came out of a microwave. Oh, and nduja potatoes seemed like pesto to me, unless now they’re making green nduja. You’d think a place that literally specialises in steaks would at least get them right. And all that at a premium price…

We were craving for some good meat after the hike at Arthur’s Seat. Ordered sourdough steak, and fillet steak and a Mac cheese for the LO. The food was good overall. Good meat and the seasoning was good. However I felt the sourdough steak might be a little bit over cooked so the edge of the meat was a bit dry. The fries were the most amazing discovery as I ve never seen such fine cut of fried!

I was disappointed to give this restaurant 2 stars, as it relates to my dislike of certain aspects. The decor and atmosphere were excellent, and the cocktails were really good. However, the steak was a letdown for me. While my partner and friend enjoyed their porterhouse steak, my rump steak was overcooked. The waiter acknowledged the mistake as I had asked for medium/rare and took it back to the kitchen, but it still came out medium. This was disappointing, as a good steak is the main reason for visiting a steak restaurant. The waiters were good, but they didnt apologise for the error which I felt was the least they could have done, especially when I had to wait a further 20 minutes and couldnt eat with my friends. Overall, this experience put a damper on the evening, and I would not return or recommend this restaurant based on my personal experience. However, your experience may differ.

For what we paid comparing to other steak places the quality didn't do it for me. I'd even say it felt like no effort was put into presentation of the food too. It would be great to get just a little bit of salad instead of just a singular piece of steak on a big plate, especially with the price we paid. Also the chips had almost no taste to them with it being such a small portion you would hope otherwise

Food was excellent—service was some of the worst I’ve experienced. It took over an hour for our food to come after we had ordered with no explanation or apology. Once we were served we were asked how everything was. I said the food was great but it took way too long. We had already finished the bottle of wine we had ordered so I asked to be compensated a second bottle for the wait. The waitress seemed agreeable to that but said she would have to ask her manager. After a while the manager came by and asked how things were, so I repeated my claim. She said the food took so long because some in our party had ordered their steaks medium-well and that it takes 45 minutes to cook a steak to that temperature! I was astonished. Not only was there no apology the inference is that it was our fault for ordering a steak medium well! I said they should put that on their menu—that’s assuming it is true—or at least tell people when they order. The manager shrugged and walked off and we had no service for the rest of the meal. Terrible customer service.

Walked in off the street to see plenty of available tables but we were refused service as we were informed by front of house that they were busy upstairs and kitchen staff were “under pressure”. Further to this there was online availability for the current time on the online booking system as well as two other slots within 15 minute intervals. Cannot understand why a restaurant would turn down business, very strange.

Would go as far as to say it was one of the tastiest steaks I’ve ever had. Didn’t have the vegetarian main option left and my partner wasn’t made aware of this - instead they sent a fish main, my partner is vegetarian. However she ended up getting an array of starters and sides which were delicious and they did discount the bill because of this. Overall, lovely restaurant, really knowledgeable about steak in general, would recommend to any meat lover

Had an excellent meal here after wanting to come for a long time. Steak was perfectly cooked and delicious. Great range of sides, in particular the fried nduja potatoes and wild garlic mushrooms. Starters are really good too and on par with the mains. The chicken wings are unreal and probably the best I’ve had in a restaurant - saucy and full of flavour, while still also being perfectly crispy. Service was excellent - the waitress was really helpful with the menu, and took a lot of time and effort to make sure we enjoyed our meal. Staff all very attentive and relaxed. Can’t wait to visit again!

Really disappointing. We had a table booked for 5pm. Walked in and only one other table in. We didn’t get menus, I had to go up and ask whilst the one server was making cocktails . She then took our order but no wine list, no drinks list, no offer of water although water glasses on table. We ordered but after ordering were told that what we ordered (steak burgers) were out of stock as last one was just sold (at 5pm on a Saturday). We then got our food which was nice but no offer of water or more wine. It then got to 6.20, we had told them our train was 6.40 and my daughter still hadn’t been offered her pudding from the 3 course deal she had. We ended up having to chase a waiter to get askef for pudding which we then had to takeaway to make the train!

We had such a great Hogmanay meal here. The Service was great, very friendly and quick service. One of the waiter's saved the life of a man at the table next to us which was pretty impressive! The food was delicious and so was wine and cocktails. One thing that made our night slightly difficult was having to listen to the obnoxious, loud and entitled family next to us, yes the family whose father nearly choked to death on his food! Ofcourse not the resturants fault, but as I had heard the spoilt son say he would be emailing a complaint to the management, I would like management to know how good the service actually was if you're not listening to a family of narcissists. Unbelievably the table is where one of the men nearly died whilst his family sat around laughed and barely patted him on the back whilst he choked. A waiter then managed to save him. The family barely looked up to thank the man not even the man whose life was saved, it was shocking to witness. Shortly after the family started to complain about the service and how they couldn't get dessert (we could hear them talk about how they had booked last minute and the restaurant was shutting)!! The entitlement was shocking and I feel so enraged for the poor servers who have to deal with awful people like this. Its really confusing to think about the psychology behind someone making a complaint to the man who just saved your father's life. I'd like to hope the family goes away and reflects on their behaviour (as my partner and I made it clear how disgusted we were), however sadly I don't think they are capable of seeing their wrong doing. Management please know your waiters did great that night especially the Spanish (I believe) man, who should get lots of praise for fast acting on Hogmanay, as he won't get any from the family of the man he saved.

After a lovely meal at the Leith restaurant earlier in the year I decided to book market street for our Christmas trip to Edinburgh. We were deeply disappointed. When we arrived we were told our table wasn't ready, however after a very short wait we were shown to our table. The first thing my wife was met with was pieces of macaroni cheese on her seat. We usually order a bottle of Rosé with our meal, and there is only one Rosé on the menu, so I ordered it. It was luke warm - I would rather have no wine than warm wine. We asked to get it changed, but as none of the Rosé was in the fridge we had to settle for white wine. Whilst the food was good, there were no serving spoons offered with our sides. Our waiters hands looked dirty, which leads me on to general cleanliness - the dining area flooring is was dirty and the toilets were nothing short of disgusting - unacceptable for a pub, never mind an upmarket restaurant. I emailed the restaurant my thoughts but a week and a half later I'm yet to receive a response.

I have been to leith and also bruntsfield and would have no hesitation in going back but I will never return to market street. We did complain to the manager but to be honest I don’t think he cared either. The worst £200 meal experience I have ever had.

Enjoyed an evening at the Chop House. Service was good, took a short while to get drinks but speedy service after ordering. Nice setting but food was only ‘good’. Ordered two porterhouse steaks, medium rare, both slightly different cook times, so one was a lot more rare than the other. Steaks no doubtably were really great. Mash and gravy disappointing, very small portion and gravy lacked seasoning and flavour. Béarnaise sauce was very bizarre, resembled a white sauce than anything. No tarragon or the typical vinegar and shallot flavours. Overall a good place for steaks and nice ambiance, but the cost didn’t reflect what was received.

We chose this restaurant due to their reviews and photos on Instagram, it looked like an extremely popular restaurant. We had a steak and a roast dinner which the beef on both of them was really good, but unfortunately we felt the visit was a bit tarnished for a few reasons. Our biggest issue was that they had no changing facilities despite having baby seats and a children’s menu. Not sure if this was just a temporary issue but meant we had to walk down the road to Costa to use their changing facilities. We knew that the price was going to be a little more due to the nature of the restaurant, however we still felt a bit stung at the end. I asked for extra gravy for my roast as it was looking a little dry (turns out the gravy is only on the beef not the rest of the dinner), they brought out the tiniest little pot which barely covered the dinner and then was charged £3 on the bill. We also ordered our young daughter a meal, which when the bill came saw was £12. We checked the menu just to make sure the price was correct and noticed it that it was £12 but for a drink meal and dessert. Whilst we were asked if she wanted a drink at the start, we declined as she had her own water, it wasn’t mentioned that a drink was included with her meal. At no point was a child’s dessert offered to us after our mains. The staff however did take the main off the bill when we queried the price which was very generous. Overall, the food was really good, and staff were nice but ultimately didn’t feel it was a very family friendly restaurant, especially for those with young children, despite having a children’s menu and high chairs.

Can’t comment on the food because I’ve been sat here waiting for it for 1.5hrs. I’ve only managed to order one beverage as the waiters may as well be not here. Less than 20 people in the restaurant, shocking service.

Sat by the bar. Bartender Dave was lovely and Ignacio was the consummate host. Had a delicious alcohol-free cocktail. Will be visiting again!

Nous avons pris de la viande "of the coals", elle était très bonne. C'est un peu cher, surtout que les accompagnements, en supplément, sont de petites portions. Mais cela reste un bon restaurant gastronomique.

What an experience. We celebrated my friends birthday here last night and the service and food were top notch, to match the great company I was with. We started with a silly amount of oysters, as they were so delicious we just couldn’t stop ordering more. All paired with a perfectly made dirty gin martini by Dave on the bar. We then opted for two large sharing steaks, one of which was the special of the day, a 52 day dry aged sirloin on the bone and it was TO DOE FOR! The services in this place really knocks it out the park, kudos to Cara and Jordan on the floor, Dave shaking things up behind the bar, and all the genius chefs in the kitchen, all of whom made out night extra special. Thank you to everyone involved ❤️

I have ordered a bottle of wine and I received a different one. I spoke to the waiter and he brought me the right one I wanted. I ordered a medium rare fillet (£40). I received a burnt fillet. I asked for another one and I received again a burnt fillet. I asked not to bring another fillet as I did not want anymore. They came back with a fillet but I did not check if it was burnet or not because I did not let the waiter to leave the plate on the table. I went downstairs and I have seen in the kitchen some pieces of meat already cooked on the side. Maybe the meat that could have been reused? I do not know...i did not ask. Better not know too much. I would avoid this place. Obviously I did not pay the burnt fillet because I did not eat it. I received £20 discount but still I would not go as they ruined my night.

Luckily we got a table & we chose a kids meal which was a hit & we all had steaks and one macaroni cheese & chips . The latter was chosen only because we were told the chicken ( 1st choice would take an hour ) so we were rather disappointed about that . The steaks had a choice of sauces , steaks beautifully cooked & we chose the side broccoli, chips & a beer & bottle of Pinot noir all very good. As we chose no starters the food came in about an hour so we could have had the chicken dish after all … The waiter was most attentive & thankyou for making it a great night round the table such a wonderful family get together !

Superb food and served by friendly and helpful staff. The best steak I've had in any restaurant. Booked online, arrived on time and seated immediately. Ordered starter, steak and 2 sides each and left feeling we'd had a thoroughly enjoyable meal.

Overall, this was a great dinner. The steak I had was spot on, and my partner's lobster was also excellent. the sides were also very nice The mac and cheese were perfectly good; however, I found the onion rings a bit disappointing. starters and dessert, both well worth having. I had the ribs, and the portion was great and tasted amazing. The restaurant is compact and buzzy. The staff were all excellent; we didn't catch anyone's names, but all the staff that were working on October 24 were excellent. Overall, I will be returning.

Minging. Burnt food. Tough steak. Awful. Lobster was nice though and staff lovely but at the end of the day no one cares but us if the food is awful!

Warning! Not for those with physical disabilities. The hip vib includes seating reminiscent of a ferris wheel. Very difficult to get in and out for the elderly. Steaks are dry aged on premises and are excellent!! Great food and cocktails.

I enjoyed my meal at Chop House Market Street. The staff were very welcoming, friendly and attentive. I quite enjoyed the food - I had small serve of mussels for the entree and steak with lobster for the main. As a whole the food was tasty and flavoursome, steak was cooked well however it was quite a thick steak which isn't my first preference but was still nice. I also enjoyed the blackberry cocktail that I had and Malbec wine. The pricing is more on the expensive side however I did choose pricier items on the menu to try.

Consistently good steak, my favourite steak houses in Edinburgh. They also do kids eat free deals and make a mean cocktail.

Enjoyed gorgeous steaks cooked to perfection at this establishment on Wednesday night. Service was excellent and very efficient . Small venue but busy, busy for a Wednesday evening......a clear sign of its popularity. Definitely worth a try if meat is your favourite dish.....

Great steak and an interesting place to eat it. I've visited a few times now with parties of around 8 to 10 people. Every time it's been excellent, everyone's enjoyed their food and come away extremely satisfied. My fillet was cooked perfectly and there is a good range of sides. I'd definitely recommend the Beef Fat Chips. We will all return, for sure.

OK so give me a break on the atmosphere. We were the first table in on a Sunday afternoon. The staff are super friendly and helpful, and I am betting it is a fun bustling place on a Friday evening. The food is stunning, the chicken was succulent with a crispy skin! The margarita was spicy and the fries are a revelation. The starters were top notch too. Go search this place out and don't miss out!

The food is nice, but it does feel like a chain restaurant. When we arrived we were asked to have a drink at the bar while our table was prepared. We were the only people at the bar and there were a few bar staff around but no one asked us if we wanted to order a drink. We tried to catch their eye but gave up. One member of staff leaned right across me and onto me as they stretched to get something from behind the bar. Didn't say excuse me or sorry. Our table was downstairs which wasn't as nice as upstairs. Table service for dinner was quick and friendly.

My family and I ate here after arriving in Edinburgh. It was quite nice, I had the sunday roast. It was a 35-day dry aged steak and other stuff on the side for 21£. The steak was pretty good for only 21 pounds, although I would have loved to have more potatoes and less of the green stuff. My family also thought the food was good. The homemade Lemonade was great as well.

The porterhouse and stilton sauce where expertly cooked, seasoned and rested. Service was excellent, would recommend the Chop House Martini.

Dans l’ensemble plutôt bon même si les quantités c’est pas vraiment ça 32£ pour une entrecôte qui ne fait pas 300g(quasi sur) et un tout petit bol de frite surgelées a 5£ c’est un peu de l’abus… bref un peu déçu

My family’s 1st time in Edinburgh and I decided to try the Scottish beef. We had a 1kg tomahawk, 2 fillet, oysters, some sides like in the picture for 3 aldults and 2 ten-year-old kids. - Staff was really nice and she explained well about the Scottish dried beef used as we were there for the 1st time. - About the steak: i chose medium well as we had kids and we waited for 45’ which the staff already told us about that. She also suggested us the 1kg tomahawk was enough for just 2-3 people but I didn’t believe at first as we had kids and asian stomach 🤣 I soon regretted that I should double the meat bcoz it was too good, soft and juicy, we could eat much more but couldn’t wait for more 45’. - Sides: Portion is big compared to the price. I love rocket salad and potato was yummy.

Overall, it was a great food experience. The stuff was very friendly. And the food very good, the steak we had was medium rare and was perfectly cooked. I give 4 star as an overall because i find it a bit expensive. 150 pounds for 2 people. We had a T bone stake with half lobster, 2 sides, and a bottle of wine.

As we came to the end of a fine visit to Edinburgh we looked for a final blow out and found this pearl on the walk home. Wifey and I decided on a good send off, both having rump with a sauce and an excellent side dish each as a main with me having the sticky bbq ribs and her the tempura prawns to start. A wee dram of whisky on the way and all washed down with baileys coffee. An excellent setting, very friendly staff and two absolutely perfectly cooked medium rare steaks!! I thoroughly recommend this stylish eatery.

Excellent time here. Good selection of whiskeys and the food is delicious. The peppercorn sauce here is amazing and worked beautifully with the haggis bon bons. Steak was beautifully cooked and the sorbet washed everything down nicely. Had a slither of the House of Tully Singleton after referral from the bar staff - excellent choice and it went down a treat. Comfortable seating and friendly staff.
