Gaucho - Edinburgh in Edinburgh, City of

Das Restaurant ist aehr modern und schön eingerichtet, Das Essen ist ebenfalls sehr Lecker, die Pommes waren Super und das Filet sehr Zart. Leider lässt der Service ein wenig zu Wünschen übrig und man muss ziemlich lange Warten.

We arrived at Gaucho and got a lovely welcome to our table and was told Monica will be our waitress today.Monica answered a couple off questions I asked about dishes on the menu in a professional way.We ordered the dishes and were not disappointed the amuse bouche ,starter,main course and desserts were beautifully cooked and presented.All dishes were served by Monica who was so friendly and knowledgeable.We look forward to visiting Gaucho again.

Visité el Gaucho por primera vez a finales de la semana de octubre y apenas una noche realmente genial! Mi servidor Alessio estaba muy bien informado y atento, la comida era excelente y el servicio era sublime. Sin duda visitaré de nuevo la próxima vez que esté en Edimburgo.

Hemos estado en Gaucho’s varias veces a lo largo de los años y hemos Disfrutamos de la experiencia general. Estuvimos allí hoy para almorzar y fue excepcional, desde el entrante hasta el postre, hecho aún mejor por el servicio al cliente proporcionado por Mónica que nos cuidó durante el tiempo que estuvimos allí. ¿Si todo el personal fuera tan profesional y atento? El día fue tan bueno que he reservado nuestro almuerzo de Navidad allí. Brillante

11/10 and what fabulous staff!!!

Went for dinner food was really good, however, was told we had to be out by 8:45 due to a private function, we booked our table at 7:15 but weren’t sat until 7:30. We ordered our food and starters came quickly but didn’t receive our mains until 8:30 giving us only 15 minutes to eat our mains meaning we couldn’t finish our own meal as they cleared our table before we finished. We also couldn’t have a look at the desert menu due to us being rushed out. We also had to pay while we were eating our mains.

Perfect date night! Great food and amazing service! Definitely gonna have to come back for the kiwi gimlet 🥰

Excellent food, particularly enjoyed the steak tartare. Fantastic service as well!

Had a great meal at Gaucho with some friends! Service was excellent, going to be back for some more of those kiwi Gimlets 😍

We booked the steaks and cocktail with mates deal at £65 per head No one to greet us coming in and put to the most awkward table in a corner and asked to be moved Waiting staff lovely We had a very nice starter full of flavours with a lovely cocktail but then the meal went downhill The sharing steak platter was not bad enough to send back but cold, chewy and very gristly The cocktails were awful and we left them The toilets weren’t clean and no toilet paper The bill was wrong and had to be amended There was no atmosphere and none of the food or cocktails were explained. Definitely would not return

Het was een zeer rustige avond en toch moesten we erg lang wachten voordat we ons eten konden bestellen. Ook kwam de rondlopende bediening erg gehaast over (bij ons aan tafel was dat iets minder gelukkig, maar echt welkom voelden we ons er niet door). De prijzen zijn hier hoog maar dat weet je van tevoren. De hoeveelheid die je hiervoor krijgt is echter teleurstellend. Ik zou hier niet naartoe terug gaan en het ook niet aanraden, alleen als je geld teveel hebt want de smaak is dan wel weer prima.

Beautiful restaurant we really enjoyed it to celebrate our anniversary, they gave us a lovely card which we really appreciated, Ibram our server was exceptional and incredibly knowledgeable he made our time there really special.

Delicious food and great service from all the staff I interacted with, especially Andrea my server who made some excellent recommendations for my meal :)

The steaks were cooked perfectly, full of flavour, and the staff were friendly.Great spot for a special meal – I’ll definitely be back!

Beautiful meal with my daughter while visiting Edinburgh. Excellent waiter , attention to detail , dropped my napkin , he discreetly picked it up and replaced it with a fresh one. He didn’t notice - that I noticed. Service was 10/10. Meal was incredible. Definitely be back ❤️

Me and my wife are regulars at this branch in Edinburgh. I couldn’t fault it even if I tried. Thank you guys

We went to Gaucho for a birthday meal & were really let down. The steak was very tough, overcooked, and more grey than pink. There was no flavour to it whatsoever, & it was really bland. The sides were equally disappointing. The mash was hard & lumpy, & the chips tasted like they had been sitting around for a while. The drinks were also a letdown; we got a Kiwi Breeze, which is probably the worst drink I’ve ever tasted. To top it off, our server then shoved the card machine in our face without saying a word whilst we were still eating our dessert. Very unprofessional & rude. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone; there’s far better options out there.

Andrea top quality server made the night 10/10

Now this is a place I can recommend, excellent service, food in a high class and fairly affordable.

Such a lovely restaurant. The steak was cooked to perfection. The service from Andrea was spot on. Highly recommend! Kiwi Gimlet is one of the nicest cocktails I’ve ever tried.

really upmarket nice place, food was great but very expensive, tipped waiting staff during meal, he was great, only to find surcharge which at the time of paying we did not notice, ended up a £125 tip, bill for over £1000 on a Saturday afternoon, really nice place but did not expect the prices and surcharge, sorry wont be back till we win the lottery

Best steaks in Edinburgh - super culinary experience and extremely knowledgeable staff.

Restraunt is located one floor lower, food good, service excellent, bill high 😎

Everything we ordered is out of this world. Salmon tartare tacos and the Chargrilled baby gem Caesar are amazing. The way they prepared the steak, Churrasco De Lomo, is now my favorite. Our waiter is exceptional. Only wished the restaurant wasn’t so hot. I could not enjoy my overall dining experience because I was sweating so much.

Expensive and not worth the money. SEK 3950 for 4 main courses and a bottle of red.

Very good experience, waiters and service. The food and wine was excellent. Got very good advice from a friendly waitress. Music too loud.

Came here to celebrate my birthday and everything was just wonderful! Every member of staff was super kind and polite, and our server Andrea delivered the best service we could ask for. Food was amazing, and I can't wait to come here for another special occasion to have more chateaubriand 👌🏻

Select location, very nicely appointed room, excellent cuisine with original and refined recipes. But quite expensive and quite frustrating to have to pay £6.50 for a mini portion of green salad to accompany the salmon.

Had an amazing night in this beautiful restaurant. The service was outstanding by our table host Ibrahim. Thank you for a lovely birthday treat.

A very exclusive restaurant with great dishes. Everything was very tasty. Great service. We felt very comfortable.

Pros: seated quickly, appetizers (scallops, tacos and olives) were sensational, strawberry hanky panky was tasty, atmosphere is loud and hip. Cons: room was too warm,music too loud, drinks took 30 minutes + to get, we never got a salad we ordered, several drinks were sold out, food service took 45 minutes +, main course of steak had nothing but meat on the plate and tasted very ordinary, main course of fish also too simple in presentation and flavor, bill took a very long time to receive.

Absolutely fabulous dining experience, very warm welcome. A equally fantastic atmosphere, food was excellent. Staff are very welcoming and tentative . Will not hesitate to book this wonderful restaurant again. We'll done to all you guys.

Good food but pricey. They specialise in steak which is good quality but it is expensive

Had best service from our waiter. Great steak.

Had a great time here. It has a nice, relaxing atmosphere. Our waiter was chirpy and enthusiastic. The food was fantastic, the steak was cooked just how I wanted. Will go back!

First time at Gaucho having been recommended by a family member who went to London Bridge. I was immediately disappointed with the welcome, where we were asked to take a seat and wait in the bar area for our table. Thought we would have a pre dinner cocktail but were offered nothing. Instead a party of 6 men having arrived drunk last minute from the local football match took preference. We were called to our table 10 mins later and the atmosphere of the restaurant was extremely loud and brash. Our waiter was lovely and reasonably attentive but clearly rushed off his feet. Not what I was expecting at all. No table cloths and gouges out of the table. Not up market dining considering it was £185 for 2 people no starters or puds just mains and a bottle of wine!! Will not be returning ever.

Simply amazing food, cooked to perfection. Best place I've dined for this year. Were surprised by a free birthday cake too! The lightning was a bit low though, reading the menu was a challenge for this geezer

Hands down the best dinning experience I’ve ever had. The service was exceptional, I could not fault the attentiveness of the staff. They are extremely knowledgeable and we were instantly made to feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The environment itself was great, the table setting was extremely comfortable and the style of seating felt like you had your own little private area. The food was incredible, my steak was cooked to perfection and the side dishes were delicious. The cocktails were fantastic and Craig did an excellent job in recommending which ones he thought we would enjoy the most. I can’t recommend this place enough. Will be back in a heartbeat.

Greaaaaat set menu !!!!! Omg It’s like their 10 th year anniversary or something so the have a kickass set menu for 30 quid!

Average Türkiye prices, food was good and delicious The restaurant is very clean and in a good location.

Very good staff attention. We hadn't spoken English in a long time and the waitress immediately had an Italian waiter who spoke Spanish serve us. He recommended us and helped us at all times. All the material served on a top quality table and treated with great care. Fast and attentive service to our needs at all times. Cozy and quiet place. Decorated with care. We already knew Gaucho in London and we have come to the conclusion that it will be a restaurant that we will go to when we are traveling to make it more pleasant.

I had THE BEST experience at Gaucho this Saturday. We arrived a little early but they were more than happy to seat us upon arrival. Following on from that the service was impeccable from the very start, they were very attentive throughout our visit. I particularly liked being shown the steak options, as someone who doesn't often have steak it was great to have Craig explain all the cuts and how they are best cooked. The food itself was delicious, I can't fault a single thing.. simply perfection! And to top it off, the cocktails were gorgeous. The watermelon spritz was exceptionally good (and dangerously yummy). I would definitely recommend Gaucho and can't wait to return.

World Class restaurant. Great service, from the lady at the reception desk upstairs to the lady serving our table. Excellent service. The food was well up there in quality in every way. Perfectly made, nice and hot when it arrived and all pur dishes arrived at the correct time. I ordered two starters as a main. The white wine very good. An all round great experience. I’ll be back.

Our son got us a voucher for my husbands birthday for a 3 course dinner with Prosecco, so we reserved a table and went today. We were given menus and we ordered a bottle of wine at £50. When we explained we had a voucher our menus were quickly taken away and replaced with a card menu with a very limited choice. The prawn starter was below average, the very small sirloin was ok, but nothing special, and the chips were obviously frozen. A tiny portion of sauce and no vegetables at all. Dessert was chocolate brownie (dry) and ice cream. We ordered a bottle of water of which we had a glass each. We were charged £80 at the end of what was to be honest below average food. The wine was £50 so I’m guessing we were charged £30 for 2 glasses of water. Diabolical! Would not recommend and will not be back.

The restaurant is downstairs and elegant but with a nice romantic ambiance. The seabass ceviche was devine. Flank steak salad (though ordered medium came out tender and slightly overdone. It didn't have the bold flavors. Mac n cheese truffle was yummy. The cookie dough dessert with vanilla ice cream was made to order and served hot ooeg gooey in mini cast iron for 2. Lovely dinner.

Truly an impeccable culinary experience. I visited Scotland for the first time and came here to celebrate my birthday. From the atmosphere to the food I was impressed. The service was wonderful, the servers were all so kind and helpful. If you have the chance you absolutely must try Gaucho.

The restaurant we visited during the company trip is very nice and stylish, the location is very central, it is walking distance from our hotel, it is a great convenience, the starters were delicious but the meat was excellent, we ate more and more, we regretted it when we got up, but thank you, everything was perfect, the employees were friendly, happy, the service was nice, fast, everything was nice 👏👏

Everything was fantastic, food was great, steak, salads, ceviche, wine 5* !

Great venue. Beautifully done. Wonderful service. Worst steaks I have ever eaten. We had the sampler. Most expensive on the menu. From first bite absolutely COLD. Terrible. Zero warmth. None! I never send food back so we ate cold left over steak. A total waste of money and time. If I come back to Edinburgh I will stay as far away from this place as I can except to perhaps have a drink. Those were great. I simply cannot tell you what a grave disappointment this was. There was a huge group of obviously more important people than is in thier “wine room” and they got all the attention and I am guessing all the properly warm steaks. Ours were terrible. Sad since it is a very warm space. Good servers. Nice drinks. Terrible food. I have a group of 37 here and send many to Edinburgh. They will not have this on our list again

Premium restaurant. Great kitchen staff. Awesome atmosphere.

Loved spending the evening in Gaucho, Malbec was amazing and so was the food.

Very classy location in the basement. Service was very friendly and the food was delicious. But it's too expensive for a family and you should know beforehand that a tip of 12.5% ​​is automatically added, which is a hefty extra amount given the high prices.

Superb steakhouse with excellent service.

Been a few times, food and service was excellent, the Ribeye was perfection as were all the incredibly tasty side dishes. I have given 2 stars for 2 reasons, the “mocktail” was out of a can that was just brought to the table, a can you can buy for £1.20 online and then charged £6.50 for ? I would have thought they could have made their own Mocktails on site than this to be frank lazy and overpriced option and secondly the toilets were absolutely filthy and actually stinking, beautifully fitted out toilets, no hand towels, no toilet roll, floor under the urinal absolutely soaking in piss, sinks with overflowing bins and water again overflowing on top of all the counters. If I had gone to the gents pre eating I would have actually left. This was excused by “we were very busy” somewhere of this quality should have the toilets checked, cleaned and restocked every 30 minutes. Not only a health hazard but also a slip hazard. My job is building management/health and safety and I just found this part completely unacceptable.

Delicious. And very expensive) But this is for gourmets🥰

Great service and great food, but my overall experience was totally spoilt by where we were seated. I went with ny daughter and it was a good bye dinner as i was leaving to go back home and she was staying behind. The restaurant was 3/4th empty, when we walked in at 7.30 pm. We thought it might get full and didn’t say anything about the seating. Apart from that, I couldn't see what lay beyond where we were sitting. I could only see the front door and fire extinguisher and what was, evidently, the entry/exit to the kitchen. On my to the ladies room, I saw what was a very plush restaurant and was extremely disappointed at where we were made to sit. Had nearly finished my meal by then. I feel cheated and will not go back, even with the knowledge that I could have asked, but I had my reasons to not do so, one of them was not knowing what lay beyond. Terrible when the restaurant was empty. Horrible experience and what I feel is a waste of my money. Good food and good service can be had elsewhere.

May not be the best steak I have had but the total experience was good.

Fantastic steaks but very very disappointed in the portion sizes of the sides that accompanied the steaks. We had the Guacho sampler which is 4 steaks plus sides of mash, chips, mushrooms and broccolini. I was expecting good portions for the sides between 4 people but to be honest the sides were sized for 1 / 2 people.

We recently stayed there for dinner to celebrate a birthday and it was amazing - delicious food and friendly servers!

Wonderful experience very welcoming staff. The food wos delicious i had a t bone

Nice place with good food and friendly staff! I knock off one star since the place is dog-friendly, which automatically means it`s not friendly to people with dog allergy.

Very beautiful restaurant in the basement, chic, with delicious meat, and very welcoming staff! Beautiful restaurant, delicious steak! Restaurante bonito no subsolo, com Carne deliciosa. Lunch menu at a good price for the standing (£25).

Expensive, but worth it. Great for celebrations

If you are used to fine dining, skip it. Even for a chain I expected better. The location is good and the welcome okay but it is (as often the case) style over substance. I was allocated a table in a corner that could not be reached without the waiters bothering other patrons. I ordered the scallops followed by the Churrasco chorizo steak. The scallops were flavourless even though the description suggested otherwise. The steak was fine, the chimichurri sauce was blah and the chips over salted (and I love salt). Just blah overall. Finally, the service was fine, I received my food but nothing special and my starters were removed without even making eye contact. But of course, service added…can’t recommend.

Food was really disappointing. Steak was supposed to be medium, was really over done and chewy. Mash potato was obviously prepped before service and warmed up in the microwave. Where we sat it was pitch black and had to use my torch on my phone to see the menu and couldn't hear a word the waiter was saying with the music playing so loud like a club. The waiter was attentive and always kept the wine topped up. Shame the food let his service down.

We were here to celebrate a special occasion and the wonderful staff made it so special and memorable. Food and service were exceptional. I do not hesitate in giving 5 stars for such an amazing evening. Thank you.

Outstanding service. Lovely venue as well. Our server was Craig, he's always very friendly and very professional. Steaks were delish. We had Churrasco de Chorizo and Secreto Ibérico. There is plenty of wine selection, so don't miss it. Starters were bread board, chorizo & morcilla platter, steak tartare and scallops, all delish!! Defo one of our favs in Edinburgh. Thank you!

Visited Gaucho for the first time in a long time, and had forgotten how good it was. Craig, our server, was extremely well versed in the cuts of meat and wine choices, (around 200 to choose from, I believe ). Always fillet for me, and rump for hubby and our son, who was celebrating his 21st birthday. Food was excellent and wine choice on point. A celebratory cheesecake with a birthday message was a lovely touch too. Will definitely be returning much sooner next time. It’s obvious the staff all work as a team, and enjoy their workplace 👌highly recommend a lemon cocktail but can’t remember the name of it 🤦‍♀️ oops 😂

I can't fault the food or the service but hadn't appreciated that the restaurant was dog friendly. My partner has a significant allergy to all dogs and as the restaurant is a downstairs venue with no external ventilation this was not ideal. We were accommodated far away from the one (well behaved) dog that was in at the time so I cannot fault the staff. Having relooked at the website I see that it does say it's dog friendly, but you have to scroll to find it. I just wouldn't expect a fairly expensive restaurant to allow dogs. Sadly, because of that we won't be back.

What a great experience! The food was absolutely delicious - the favourite being scallops and the steak with chimichurri sauce, and we were so well looked after by Natasha! The ambience was perfect for a girls night too, great vibes all around. Thank you, and we will definitely be back!

Main course arrived before we had only just started our starters, raw egg on the tagliatelle which I hate and no mention on the menu. So disappointed bill was £ 150 plus’s.

Nice place, great steak!, Food was good and well presented. The waiters were all very experienced and nice to us, Natasha who seemed to be the manager that evening was very attentive and proffessional. Prices were very reasonable. We will definitively go back when in town again.

We used an itison deal which cost £68 for the spiral rib eye for two with two sides and two sauces. We also had a bottle of wine costing £50 ( one of the cheaper bottles on the wine list) and one cheese cake costing £10. We finished the meal with two expresso martini each costing £11. The food was great and the staff were really attentive. The total cost of the meal came to £185.01 less our £68 itison voucher. Bringing the bill down to £117.01 on the night. Not sure what the saving was using the itison voucher as I thought the whole meal was over priced.

Really really good food - the steak was delicious! Recommend booking in advance to avoid being disappointed. Staff were very friendly

Good food with quick service time, staff were slow with providing bill

The restaurant atmosphere is exquisite and elegant. The service was amazing, our waitress made sure that everything was to our taste. The food well.... one of the best meats I have tasted here in the UK. The say you pay for what you get well, Gauchos is worth every penny

Looked after by Craig a huge thank you for making our visit a special one. 10/10 service and food

Best steaks in town, excellent service and atmosphere. Highly recommended.

The food was okay! The individual steaks were presented in advance and explained what is what and how it is best prepared. Unfortunately, neither was it mentioned on the menu nor was it mentioned that a 12.5% ​​tip would be automatically added to the bill. There was also no way to split the bill between the people present, so we had to do it ourselves. But in itself it was a nice evening with good food and service that was still very good and friendly for the late hour.

For a restaurant that implies it is one of the best this was very average and not good value at all. Surely staff, poor quality steaks and lack of attentive service. To top it all a 12.5% service charge…rip off Britain.

First visit to Gaucho Edinburgh in a while it’s a special place for us as we had our first date here. We have tried many Gaucho restaurants but Edinburgh is by far our favourite. The decor and lightning is lovely and creates a romantic and relaxed vibe. You can sit for hours and enjoy each other’s company while grazing over good food and drinks. The restaurant is immaculate and toilets are always clean to a high standard. Our server was Viola who was professional, knowledgeable and bubbly. Nothing was any trouble and she even catered for our dog Kali. For starters we shared the pan de bono and arepa bread which is very tasty and the scallops which were cooked perfectly. We were sad to see the prawn ceviche is off the menu but hope it comes back. I had a bottle of rose wine Pretty Gorgeous which is my go to choice, highly recommend and Steve had Stewart’s Lager which is on draught and a local brewery. We then ordered the 300g ribeye steak cooked medium which was perfect and melted in your mouth. We ordered fries, humita, truffle mac and cheese and a Béarnaise sauce which was all wonderful and tasty. The portions are very reasonable and filling so we quite often share and to be honest I am not a huge steak fan but do appreciate a good steak and I will pinch a bit of Steve’s. However there is lots of alternatives on the menu so you won’t be disappointed. For dessert we shared sticky apple and date puddling which finished off the meal. We had some cocktails, porn star martini’s, Highlander and Banana Kick which are created with love. We were sad but happy that Sean the General Manager has moved on up with in the company as he was a real asset in Edinburgh. The new manager Sian seemed lovely and confident in her role so look forward to seeing her again. There are many steak restaurants popping up all over Edinburgh and we have tried them all as Steve is a great steak lover. Some other steak houses have grand buildings but we love the intimacy of Gaucho Edinburgh as it creates a great atmosphere if you are with a loved one or friends. Over all Gaucho’s is the best steak place in Edinburgh, it is a little more expensive compared to other places but it is worth it. We enjoy making memories here and look forward to making many more.

Wonderful family meal at Gaucho. Friendly and professional service from the meet and greet at the door right through to our goodbyes. Delicious starters, mains and desserts.

If you like meat, it is one of the best places in Edinburgh. The decoration and service is great.

Very fine restaurant, attentive staff and great meat. We had the Chateaubriand with homemade fries and mashed potatoes. Also recommended for wine lovers.

First time here, the steak ect was absolutely beautiful. Cocktails great too. Staff very friendly. Would definitely recommend 👌

The menu doesn't have too many choices. As far as I know, any steakhouse should offer a Caesar salad, but they only have one salad. The gratuity is included in the bill at 12.5%, which is quite high. We split £30, and I poured my own wine. They should work more on the menu.If you cancel the booking, they charge £20 per person, which is quite significant

Last visited with business clients from Paraguay 18 months ago. It was a superb night. Came back this weekend and….it was even better. My friends and I were lucky enough to be looked after by the wonderful Craig. Remembered my name and, more importantly, the Malbec I’d enjoyed 18 months ago. What a legend!

Somewhat dated attempt to wow customers with a dark decor, low lit expansive basement dining room. Food tasty enough but hugely overpriced and overrated. First class staff, attentive and knowledgeable.

Food (5/5) The fillet tail was amazing—very tender with no connective tissues. Probably the best steak I’ve had in a long while! I also liked the variety of choices there. Service (4.5/5) They brought out all the different cuts of beef on a platter to explain their differences, which was very nice and helpful. The service was also very fast (when it comes to taking your order, getting food out on your table, and noticing that you’re done. However, it did slow down a bit after the main course, and I had to wait a while for the waiter to come take my dessert order and for the dessert to come out. Environment: Very cool layout and decor. Nice bathrooms too—I cannot express how much I appreciated the foot-operated door opener attachment, being someone with ocd.

Came here as hubby wanted to try argentine steak. As a vegetarian, I contacted the company who accommodated my needs. Food was freshly cooked and tasty. Service was good too and food arrived promptly. The bread was tasty too! We would eat here again when in Edinburgh again.

Beautiful restaurant with great service. Unfortunately the food was nothing spectacular. The creamy potatoes were under seasoned and not at all creamy. The roasted veg were under cooked.

Delicious food and drinks. Visited Gaucho for a birthday meal with my partner, was impressed with the service and attention to detail.

Overpriced in my opinion and therefore too expensive.

The service was impeccable, it always is so I really should’ve reviewed a while ago! This time, I was served by Alessio, he is so friendly and has a good energy around him, he made the experience feel very relaxed with no worries even when wait times can be busy (valentines weekend) and his interaction was so genuine. I was impressed mainly by a worker named Natasha too, she was not waiting our table but kept on checking on us to make sure we were happy and okay and also checking with he was okay though I noticed she was also rushed off her feet! It was so nice to watch staff interact with each other wholesome too as they seemed to vibe off each other. Natasha took the initiative to make sure we were cared for when alessio was busy and the team work was amazing. I appreciated this lady took time to tend to everything else and also smile, ask questions and seem genuinely invested in our experience. I have came and had a similar experience with Natasha once and I regret not leaving that review. My partner at the time asked for a romantic setting to our table and she made sure we were offered amazing treatment and were catered for with a smile and grace like she genuinely enjoyed being there and being part of our experience. Your staff are FANTASTIC. I don’t like to compare but it is way better staffing and attention to customers individual needs than some Gaucho branches have been and you’re ALL busy as ever all the time! God bless.

Best place in town. Service and staff are 5 star.

Amazing place where to eat. And have some drinks. Friendly staff and the empanadas were great !!!

We had a fantastic evening. The place was packed so we were so glad that we reserved a table. Coat check and a lot of personal service. Yanis, our server was delightful, informative, and engaging. He had all the qualities that make a good meal a great experience. Three of us ordered the 400g ribeyes, 1 ordered the fillet, another a sirloin, and the last a rump. Unanimously, we agreed that our steaks were among the best we'd enjoyed. With a bottle of Vino Patricia to complement the beef, it was a perfect pairing. As a group of friends we prefer to steak houses over other restaurant types. Our last night in Edinburgh at Gaucho was a highlight of our trip.

Possibly the worst steak I have ever had, and felt rushed during the whole experience, there is a reason Gaucho is half empty and other steakhouses fully booked!

Worst steak ever, and felt rushed, no attention to when/if we finished cocktails, just don’t go.

I’ve heard of a lot of good reviews from this place, although I had quite a bad experience. The servers were very rushed and they didn’t ask me how my food was, they didnt seem like they wanted to talk to me as they didn’t have any eye contact or good communication at all. The food service wasn’t bad it was pretty fast, although I wouldn’t recommend streaks from here as they aren’t dry aged and for what you are getting it’s not that worth it. I would recommend getting a steak from chop house. The desserts were nice. The bathrooms were very poor, there was water spilled all over the counters and quite messy, far too dark and very very dimly lit, I could hardly see anything. The doors are VERY HEAVY and my nail broke when I tried to open the door, although I do like how they have a cloak room.
