El Perro Negro Woodlands in Glasgow City

One of the best places in the city for burgers. Great service and a really cool vibe. We would recommend the classic cheese burger, taragoshi chips and Korean wings. Definitely try the truffle mayo it is fantastic for dipping chips into. Will definitely be back

Popped in tonight for takeout, collected the food it was hot and fresh. As always the burgers are great from here. We opted for a Korean fried chicken burger and the top dog with a side of fries. The quality of the food is worth the price point also. I was hesitant to go here after reading other reviews that stated the food was tasteless but I can confirm total rubbish. It’s on par with the one in Edinburgh.

I ordered the top burger… and to be honest I was expecting better. Still is a decent one, but not top. The service, though the place was almost empty, the guy was constantly all over. Please give space for the clients to enjoy the experience. Maybe it was a great burger in the past, now with the hype…. Not anymore.

Worst experience of my life, the burger was tasteless and bland, it's not real cuisine!! A burger of this quality should be illegal 🤢! the service also non-existent! Please change jobs! To flee !!!!!

Amazing burgers in the west end! Top dog burger is really tasty, the patty is cooked to medium well ish, it has really nice caramelised onions with truffle mayo. It is just so tasty. I enjoyed the burger bun as well, it has lots of sesame, which is great. The only downside is that maybe cuz we are all quite hungry, the large size doesn’t feel that big. 9.5/10 Black dog burger is very delicious, the black pudding addition is really nice, it bring a bit of saltiness to the burger. 9/10 Southern fried chicken burger is really nice, big portion. Buffalo burger is nice as well, has lots of slaws, a bit messier to eat. The buffalo and blue cheese fries, it didn’t have very strong blue cheese flavour not it had a lot of blue cheese on top, it’s mostly the buffalo flavour. 7/10 The togarashi fries are good, the spiciness has a kick to it so avoid this if you can’t handle spicy food. Overall the fries are really good, generous portion and really crispy. They have an open kitchen, clean minimal decor, nice service. The burgers are a bit pricier compared to other places given that they don’t come with fries, but the flavours are amazing and it’s definitively one of the best burgers I’ve had. They don’t have a lot of seats, highly recommend this place for good burgers!

Very hit or miss, sometimes delicious and other times gross - often the meat is so gristly and have had to be sick afterwards. Shame as when good it's very good but won't be back

Excellent food with very attentive and friendly staff. We will be back!

Some of the absolute best burgers in Glasgow. Excellent flavours. The place is nice inside, small and casual.

Stopped in for dinner the evening of 24 Feb 2024, before we went to a comedy show just down the street at ‘The Stand’. We had chosen El Perro Negro both for the location and also because we had heard good things about this place; as well as read reviews both online line about how they had been selected as as burger place to add to your Bucket List. So, when we decided this was the place to go to - Win-Win (So we thought). The Service was very nice, the staff very friendly and the appearance of the food delivered to both our table and the other patrons tables and counters looked very nice. The wow factor however ended when each of us took our first bites in the burgers that we had all ordered - the burgers were or seemed to be freshly ground (minced); the Grizzle was very chunky which made the experience take a sharp down turn. As a Burger lover, this was turned me off for this grizzle was something that one would expect on the edge of a steak or prime rib….

What a terrible experience. Table booked for 5pm on a Saturday and we arrive 5 minutes early and told they’re not open yet, so we ask if we can just get a beer and wait but told no, need to wait outside. We should have taken this as a sign of things to come. Once we get in we order pints of pilsner (I think there was only 2 beers on their very limited menu), only to be told they didn’t have any (remember this is 5pm on a Saturday), so we were stuck with an IPA, which none of use really like. Another sign?? We then order the food, cheeseburgers, some wings and fries. The burgers arrive and mine is full of gristly bits. After eating about 3/4’s of it and having 4 bits of gristle, I give up with it. Two of my pals had the same issue as me while my other two pals thought their’s was ok. But apart from the gristle, the burger just wasn’t very nice, it was very bland with an overpowering burger sauce that wasn’t very nice either (tip for the chef, just stick with mayo). So all very disappointing and the staff didn’t really seem that bothered when we told them about the issues. And to top it off, I go to the toilet and the toilet bowl is covered in dried in piss (and remember we’re first in the place on a Saturday night, so the toilets haven’t been cleaned since at least the day before). So do yourself a favour and go to Five Guys instead, as IMO it’s considerably better than here. Or even go to McDonalds, which IMO is still much better than this place. You could even go to Iceland and buy a couple of dozen burgers for about £1, fry some up and stick them on an old stale roll and I reckon it would still be better than this place. So my recommendation for this place is, avoid, avoid, avoid.

What happened to this place? Ordered for the first time in a while and although the burger still tasted okay overall, where the meat used to be incredible with a deep, dry-aged flavour, it’s now chewy and full of fat and gristle. I was surprised on opening the chips that they were still crispy after a 40 minute tour of the west end courtesy of Uber Eats, but on tasting them I found out why. All the life and moisture had been fried out of them so there was nothing left to make them soggy. Most unpleasant chips I have had in a long time. What a disappointment as it used to be fantastic and deserved all the accolades.

Relaxed atmosphere, great food. Service quick without feeling rushed. It’s little, so probably best to book. Katsu Chicken burger highly recommended

Our son who was celebrating his 30th birthday picked this restaurant based on the fact they had won awards for the burgers and the wings. When we arrived I was a little surprised to find high stools and tables, however, I got my 60 year old body lifted and onto a stool. Selection of wine is limited and I was told this is the modern way. However, the white wine was dry and refreshing and the beer for the boys was cold. The fresh orange and lemonade for the driver was also very good. Onto the food, not a huge menu but what they do is excellent. The burger was really tasty and cooked to perfection. The chicken burger was excellent and the staff are great. So friendly and helpful. A wee tip, order one chips between 2, the portion is large and the burgers are so good you don’t need extra chips. I would highly recommend a visit for anyone who enjoys a good burger, (showing my age again), if you liked AdLib in the earlier 80s then pay this place a visit.

Great food. Walked by 100 times and then I saw a post from one of the Best Restaurants in Glasgow tagging these guys and decided to try it. Really good and very reasonable.

Absolutely love this place will be back in no time

Best burgers in Glasgow, staff friendly too, we will be back soon

Raw burgers chef needs to get a different job because cooking is not one of them. Pure disgusting

Best burgers and fries in Glasgow! Fried chicken sandwich also phenomenal. Not cheap, but definitely worth the price.

I had a Top Dog and fries. The burger was very tasty indeed but on the small side, especially that I ordered a large one for 14 GBP. The place is nice and cosy, and overall it was a very good meal but I'm not surprised your average rating is only 3.9 (Dec 2023) as the portions are a little disappointing.

Food was amazing and the chips have tons we had the top dog it's great.😃

Great burgers and chips. Small but cosy. Not alot of seating.

Lovely staff and great food at a reasonable price. Burgers were around £12 (truffle mayo was excellent), wings were crispy and delicious at £6.50, fries were good at £4.50 and very vinegary (too vinegary for my partner).

Your Vegan burger option had a brioche bun that wasn’t vegan and you only told me upon serving it to me. I told you it was fine but on reflection it wasn’t fine to do that at all.

The burger meat was full of chewy fat chucks. It wasn't a good experience.

TopDog. Best burger I've ever had, by a distance.

Ordered a burger without cheese for takeaway, when I got home the burger had cheese. Mistakes happen its no big deal, so I phoned up and offered to bring the burger back and switch the for a new one without cheese, as they had made a mistake and I can't eat cheese. Supervisor said their manager had a no return/refund policy even though it was their mistake. I don't think the manager or owner understands consumer law. If you do not receive exactly what you paid for you, the business is obligated to provide a replacement or refund. I left my email and phone number with the supervisor, but will most likely trigger a charge back on my credit card if I don't hear anything. Nice staff, poor management.

Burger under cooked, soggy over loaded with sauce wings I don’t even know what you could say about them absolutely rotten chops covered in spice wouldn’t recommend

I am very critical when it comes to food and have high expectations. This place did not disappoint. Was seriously the best burger I have ever had and great service as well. Highly recommend!!

Disgusting experience to say the least. Not only the size of the "double burger" was tiny, but it was also raw. Went back to the counter to return it, and the person at the till had the nerve to tell me that it was meant to be that way. Needless to say that I will never be coming back nor would I recommend this place ever.

The best burger I’ve ever had , try top dog it’s the best, the service was amazing too 😍

was served uncooked burger, would not recommend.

Expensive and nothing special. Find something else in this shopping moll

Unfortunately not wheelchair friendly at all..all high tables with nothing on the website to highlight this prior to going. Staff did try to accommodate but having to use a stool as a table wasn’t ideal. I think you should make it clear that at present it is not adequate for wheelchair users. The food was okay but I don’t think I would be rushing back

Burger was excellent- the top dog. Chips a bit on the spicy side for my liking but couldn’t fault otherwise. Service was friendly and efficient. Ordered on the app.. no problem with that. Will be back.

The hostess is racist. Asked us to move just because we are not white.

Best burgers ever! Known for their beef burgers but their chicken burgers are absolutely amazing. Bar style chairs so not ideal for little ones

Only the best burger anywhere! Stunning award winning burgers from lovely people. 2019 & 2021 UK Burger Awards Winners.

It's good but not top. Fries tend to be a bit dry, burger is good but a bit underwhelming for all the sauces it takes. I agree with 4.0 rating.

Best burger in Glasgow? Damn close...

I wish I could be more positive about this place but sadly, I can't; there is nothing about it that makes me want to return. First, the food. The burgers were full of gristle and practically tasteless. We ate them because we were very hungry. Secondly, the drink. £7 for a mediocre 175ml glass of wine, well overpriced for the quality. Thirdly, hygiene. Why are containers of mayo, and gherkins sitting uncovered on a chair at the serving area? I also saw a waitress lick her fingers and then pick up and place a burger in a carton. Dust and cobweb - filled trellis. Won't be back

Great burgers, nice place, great staff. See people complain about the burger prices/size, however for the quality of the food I think it makes up for it. Ordered 2 burgers one time and one of the chefs forgot the second one, but when I asked about it he apologised and took the second burger off my bill. Waiters are also very nice.

10/10 my favourite burger spot in Glasgow! Possibly... ever? I have tried all of the burgers but the top dog and black dog are my fav! The patties are so tasty! Bun is never soggy. Always left satisfied and not too full. The truffle mayo is a must have and I usually go for the fries with blue cheese to dip. Blue cheese sauce is so addictive. The chicken wings are 10/10 too. They even have there own beer which is tasty and goes perfectly with the food. I usually sit in as the venue is really cosy with nice decor and the staff are really friendly. Any time I have had a delivery the food has been up to the same amazing standards. Can't wait for my next one. See yous soon!

Absolute joke refused cash left with my 2 children unhappy cause I didn't have a visa card totally spoiled the time I had that day with my children guy behind counter his attitude stinking looked and replied to me about not excepting cash as if it was normal. Next time went my friend had card and my kids were happy in the end they said worst burger ever more than half binned

It's definitely 5 stars for meat eaters but unfortunately if you're veggie you're kinda forgotten about. One option that is nice but sometimes you want something different. I feel like in west end of Glasgow there should be more than one veggie option. Edinburgh has tofu burger, a lot of veggies in Glasgow would love that too. It just makes it difficult when your partner is in mood for El Perro negro and he eats meat and you only have one average veggie option so he's excited for the food and you're disappointed.

Had the NYC burger with Buffalo and Blue Cheese fries 👌🤌🙌

First time visiting here recently. Tasty burger and fries. Burger was slightly smaller than what I was expecting. Flavourful. Can see why it has won awards in the past. If you are a burger lover, a must try

Took a while because it was very busy so naturally cramped as well but that's the trouble with decent food places, everyone wants to eat there.

The top dog is a top burger! And their togarashi fries are also brilliant! One of the best burger spots in town!

Top Place, Top Food, Top Dog!!!! Outstanding as always. We never stop going!

Best burgers in Glasgow. We had the Top Dog and NYC, still thinking about them. Delicious 😀 Staff were very friendly. Looking forward to trying the Edinburgh one.

What has happened?? This used to be our most favorite burger place EVER!! We got two cheeseburgers tonight and they were actually inedible. The beef was chewy, lumpy and fatty. The burger was actually ‘in bits’ - not even a solid patty. Have they started trying to save money and using poor quality beef? It was absolutely tasteless too. Why do all good things have to come to an end??

Went to their Edinburgh stall at Bonnie & Wild. £10ish for a burger, no chips. It was nice enough with black pudding, but wasn’t close to the old Bleecker Black from Bleecker St. It was quite rich so I’d have liked something to cut through that, plus the patties were slightly too thick and needed longer/a slight char.

Restaurant in St James centre. Tried the burger as the best in the UK! Unfortunately, it did not live up to its name, ordered a bacon cheese burger, got a different. Chips were very cold. Burger was nothing special in my eyes, over priced for the size, should have went to five guys!

I’ve visited El Perro Negro lots of times now and never had a bad meal. My last trip was at the end of October - I ordered the special, a spicy “Diablo” beef burger with some buffalo fries. My partner got the NYC which he loved. I have also previously tried the Korean burger which is super tasty but my all time favourite is the buffalo chicken burger (which they still offer but for some strange reason isn’t on the menu??). One wish for me is that these guys would bring back the chicken parmigiana burger, it was unreal. Staff are always really pleasant when we get the opportunity to sit in. It’s a cool little shop, small but good vibes. These burgers are definitely worth the 30 min drive from my home town!!

Was my favourite burgers but last two visits very disappointing. Top dog now bland overcooked and the buns which were the perfect thin moist brioche bun now large bland thick and dry. Really disappointing as they were previously great but now bland unseasoned and skimping on the cheese and mayo. Hope its temporary but that has been 2 disappointing visits. Will stop sending folk there now

Very good chicken sandwich and chips, also truffle Mayo, however the potion is a bit too small, the price is a bit too high and they don’t have enough seating, but i was lucky all the time to have space. Once I’ve been charged too much by the stuff, and when I realise it I went back to get my refund. Would say the stuff should be a bit more attentive on that. Bit the place overall worth checking.

As already mentioned..the portions are way too small for the price. I could eat 2 of there burgers they are that small. The burgers are decent though

Ordered the bacon cheeseburger at the Edinburgh location in Bonnie and Wild. Felt the portion size was really disappointing. For £9.50 i really expected much more. Taste was good, but vastly overpriced for what you get. Disappointing experience.

The portions are way too small for the prices they are charging. It would be fine if it was great quality but it wasn't. The burger was bland and the patty must have been frozen given how uncooked it was in the middle relative to how charred it was on the outside. The pickles were nice, but the meat was completely unseasoned. The 3 hot wings which were charged at £5.50, I'd expect at least 4 at that price, were not that spicy and way too expensive a side. You'd expect for a place that only has burgers and hot wings and charges as much at they do the food would at least taste good.

The top dog is the best burger in Glasgow!

Everything about this was unreal. A little expensive, but this is the best burger you could conceptually have. So juicy, so high quality. My my.

Pretty poor service. Drove for quite a while as U heard the food was good. Went in and was asked if I would sit outside. It was pretty cold so I asked if I could sit in. There seemed to be some space but I was told sorry there was nothing for me. No offer to wait, come back in 15 mins etc. Just no, sorry. Cant serve you. Staff obviously not interested in being busy and want to maintain a certain number of covers. Sorry, Won't be back.

Very nice and helpful staff, high quality food

Best chicken burger in the city 🤤 Ridiculously perfect and delicious. Good people-watching spot on the pavement to enjoy it from too. Chips also 👌

Get the top dog burger! One of the best burgers I've ever had

Went to dine-in with my father. Food was delicious as always. However, the waiter wouldn't serve me a drink despite being over the age (even though my 60 year old father was present) simply because I didn't have my ID. Even though my father was present and was affirming I was over the age (which I was) he refused. The waiter wouldn't even look at a scanned photocopy of my passport. By deciding to be so petty, the waiter was essentially accusing my dad of being a liar. And even IF I were underage which I wasn't, it's legal to give a drink to a minor whose 16+ if accompanied by an adult with a meal. The point I'm making was that refusing to give me a drink with my father it felt like I was being picked on. It was embarrassing, and it is incredibly petty obtuse behaviour from service.

Pale imitation of what it used to be

Best burger you'll have in Glasgow. I'd recommend the buffalo chicken burger

I have never written a review before. This burger experience was so bad it motives me to write a few words to warn other on the hunt for a delicious burger. These guys are charging over 26£ for two burgers and one side of fries to take out. By charging these kind of prices I don’t think my expectation of a delicious burger is unrealistic or unreasonable. So, what I had hoped to be a delicious burger for my wife who was craving it, was possibly the worst burger she and I have ever eaten. It was visually unappealing, tasteless, chewy and dry. It even had we hard bits through it that we’re inedible. It is highly probable that the burger was precooked and then reheated. I forced my self to eat 3/4 before giving up and my wife, who really wanted a burger, couldn’t even mange 1/4 of hers. Don’t waste your appetite (and money) on this bad bog.

Average food Korean chicken wings and korean burger. Enough to try one time. You won't get addicted i promise

it deep fried horrible chicken , there is no information about in menu, l didnt even taste anything chicken in it 9.50£. for 1 small chicken burger 🤮

Hands down, the best burger you can have in Glasgow, likely the uk. I had the top dog (with no streaky bacon as i don't really like streaky bacon), it was the best burger I've ever had. I never eat chips with my burger, however i devoured those buffalo blue cheese fries. Amazing. Top marks. .

We have been regular el Perro customers for several years but our order tonight was abysmal - dry and poor quality bap, chewy grisly burger bun and 45 min wait! Burger meat inedible in places, and I’m not exaggerating. What has happened!!?? They used to be our favourite burger in Glasgow but now, we probably won’t be returning

Really poor customer service provided on our visit. (Wednesday 19th January). I hate writing bad reviews but this one feels necessary, it felt like sales prevention in a way I’ve never experienced before. We phoned and they said they weren’t busy, only two tables in and they’d seat us. We arrived and they only had two other tables for 2. (They have 4 tables total, only 1 seats 3 people). If they’d said that on the phone we wouldn’t have made the journey there. We asked if they could put the tables together and they said no. But we could wait outside in the cold for 45 minutes until there was a table ready. We came back inside to ask if we could have a drink at the tables available whilst we wait and the rude man behind the counter asked us to go back outside without even letting us speak. They were not busy, he could have taken one second to be polite. He had such a bad attitude and the whole vibe was not good. We left and took our business elsewhere.

These have got to be the best burgers in Glasgow, soo delicious!! Wonderful service too

Actually terrible. Very poor. I'm writing a review *because* it's so bad. I don't understand how this place is so well reviewed. Classic burger. Not one bite without gristle or inedible, chewy fat; watery, brown, pretty disgusting. Could not finish eating it. Soft, slimy pickle, along with soft, soggy bap. Tasteless. Chips fine but not especially crunchy or tasty, or even seasoned. Overpriced, small portion size, and would certainly not recommend.

Fast service tasty food and big portion of chips!

Been loving the burgers from here for a long time but the past 2 visits have been very disappointing! The quality of the burger has taken a nose dive! Please bring back the quality you used to produce el perro

We visited El Perro on our first night in Glasgow - As self-proclaimed Burger Connoisseurs, we were determined to find the best burgers in Glasgow.. we didn't have to look very far! These were some of the best burgers we have ever had anywhere - ridiculously tasty! We also had the Korean wings which were amazing too! Our meal though was made by the gent who looked after us (really sorry we didn't get your name!!), who went out of his way to reserve a table for us and made us feel at home. Thanks for an amazing evening!

Simple but very high quality burgers. The spicy fries were also very good and surprisingly hot.

Good bun, salty burger, sloppy onions. Not the worst I've had, but not worth £11. Got 2 stars as the chips were good.

Great place, simple burgers done too perfection It anything out standing but still pure quality 4/5

Was gallus mate superbly tremendous 👏. Almost as good as thatchers death party in G Square

Burger was tasty however the food did arrive at the time stated but was cold . That was pretty disappointing 😞

The food was tasty and arrived hot and crispy which was great! But the prices for what you get portion wise was poor. For example it was £3.50 for a portion of 4 onion rings, which just feels a bit cheap. The burgers are also on the small side. The chips are pretty fantastic though.

Food arrived cold, burgers were burned, fillings were almost nothing, if i could give -1 i would, get better guys or you won’t be opened much longer!

Awful service with no accountability... Food arrived freezing cold and was told to take up with Uber eats not there problem.

When this restaurant was listed as having the Best Burger in the UK, I was skeptical about such a claim. But I'll admit that I was completely wrong and can see why it was given such an accolade The Top Dog Burger is AMAZING and I've eaten alot of different burgers around the world! This place is well worth a visit and worth every penny

Preordered 3x burgers, fries and drinks. Arrived at scheduled time and a few minutes later we were enjoying well cooked flavoursome burgers and fries washed down with Scotland's finest. A good addition to the Glasgow burger scene but waiting for the day we can return...

Had takeaway again tonight from el perro! Absolutely delicious! Cooked well, super tasty! Would recommend.

Literally one of the best burgers of my life, incredible combination of flavors, and just a genuinely really nice burger. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a damn good burger.

Was looking forward to this visit after some good reviews. Ordered the Classic with Cheese, Regular Fries and the Korean Wings. I was hungry don’t judge. Bite 1 - a piece of unchewable fat Bite 2 - a piece of bone or cartilage Bite 3...

had through Uber eats and the burger was wonderful - top dog, hot and really delicious. The togarashi nicely spiced and warm good fires. They sent an extra order of the Buffalo & Blue cheese fries for free and that was banging!!! nice gesture as well - recommend.

So disappointed. The chips and chicken wings were good but the burger was completely raw. I’m all for burgers being a bit pink but this was just red mince in a bun. I’m pregnant so had to bin it but even if I wasn’t I would just find it far too undercooked. It wasn’t a burger, just pink smush.

Just dropped in for a wine i found it expensive £8 for a glass

Doesn't live up to the hype. Burger and chips for £14 and still hungry

Normally we visit the Finnieston store and the food is always 10/10 went to woodlands tonight and got the big D burger can honestly say it was horrible. Burgers were basically raw in the middle dripping in butter or grease no taste atall. So disappointed...

Me and my fiancé love this place the food is absolutely class! However last order the burgers were quite pink in the middle and the order before we were missing one portion of chips... burgers are delicious! And takeaway seems to move quite smoothly

Quality burgers and fries, well worth the price!

Wasnt impressed, dont think I'd go back...
