Miller & Carter in East Renfrewshire

Went here for an early dinner. Restaurant looked nice and had a nice table in the corner next to the wall which was covered in dried in gravy. Staff seemed friendly at first and took order quickly. Food arrived quickly which is always alarming. Triple cooked chips were burnt and stale as if they had been re heated and the rib eye steak was rare instead of medium and full of fat. Staff checked on food about 15 minutes after we started eating. Tried to get someone’s attention sooner but staff were busy and never looked in our direction. Advised waiter that the steak had been cooked wrong and was not nice and full of fat. Waiter was not interested and advised that my son had eaten most of it. He had eaten the bits around the middle that were slightly cooked and not fatty the rest of the steak he had left. For the money this was not a great experience and safe to say we won’t be back. Disappointed as this was an expensive treat for us but it was far from a treat it was disgusting.

This was an amazing meal and the service was amazing!! Diane was so lovely and kept checking up on us to make sure everything was okay!!

Food wasn't great at all. Salad arrived 15 mins before the rest of the order. Burger was mediocre. The service was slow. Stakes was flavorless. Left totally disappointed. Will not be back

Excellent service and the food was exceptional. Our server Thomas kept a keen eye and made us feel very welcome

Visited last night with a table booked at 6.45 under the name Meiklejohn. We arrived at 6.30 and was asked to take a buzzer and they would buzz us once table arrived, we grabbed a few drinks and a table was ready for 6.45 as promised . However , our orders were then not taken until 7.20 at which point I had approached the manager to ask if someone could come take our order , he sorted this for us and food arrived at 7.45 , I was fine with this. 45 minutes later , I then had to approach someone at the bar and so for them to chase up our food, this meant we were now at 8.30 (2 hours after entering) and we still hadn’t received our main course. We had a 5 year old with us who was becoming very restless which of course added to the stress. Our server Matthew was fantastic , interacted with our daughter and kept her entertained as much as he could aswell as continually apologising . It would take a lot for me to return to this venue, the food is great, but two hours just to get to the main course is excessive especially with a small child

We visited the restaurant, which was nice with welcoming staff. The restaurant area was very impressive, and parking was available. The food was delicious; we had the signature Miller Steakhouse burgers that came with fries.

Lunch menu appeared to be good value for money but was pretty average. Food was served at different times, burger was lukewarm and had to be replaced. Desserts were average. The smell of bad drains in the toilet was appalling. Needless to say we won’t be returning customers and will not be recommending.

I would not go back thought it was too expensive for what you got and we where cold sat nxt to the door asked if we could be moved she never got back to us ,asked for water no lemon as diatry requirement and twice i got lemon , I got a 8inch steak and my son got a 12inch but ended up an 8 after he cut all the fat away will not be back

We visit Miller and Carter Newton Mearns often and have been served by Thomas a few times. He remembers us and always delivers high quality service making our experience personalised and fun. Not to mention how fabulous our food is every time. Thanks again Thomas!

Diane was amazing outstanding service

Efficient, friendly service from Diane. Steak was lovely, well cooked and a delicious red wine sauce. Chips and onion loaf nice but weren't hot enough.

I had a brilliant dinner tonight at Miller & Carter. Steaks were amazing. Food was amazing. However, when I booked the table there was a “special requests” section so I filled this in stating it was my sons 12th birthday today & if there was anything they could do to make this special for him it would be greatly appreciated. I even told the waiter. Nothing was done & I spent £130 for the 2 of us. When I put a special request in another restaurant “Guacho” for my daughter she got a chocolate cake & birthday message on a serving plaque.

Really handy location with a sizeable carpark. Staff all very friendly. Very busy when we visited, so service was a little slow but understandable as it seemed like every table was occupied. The set menu we had ordered from was great value for money, the portion sizes were big and great that you can swap the dessert for a cocktail. Plenty highchairs available for babies. Planning on visiting again.

It was OK, ish… I only had a burger which was ‘ok’ but the chips were ‘well done’… and ‘tough’. My partner’s steak seems to have been ‘ok’ and she has had better lobster tail. I could certainly smell it! Her chips were at least edible which was a good thing. I expect more than just ‘OK’ for £75 for 2 mains and some bread.

Food was amazing and we were served by the lovely Diane, she was so warm and friendly. Would definitely come back

I love the fillet! Food is good and great service provided by Diane

Visited early on Wednesday afternoon, greeted immediately by Graham. Service, food and overall experience was outstanding. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely fantastic, had T-bone steak it was cooked to perfection. The waiter was so friendly and helpful

Every time I’ve been to the place, it gets worse. Main points - if you sit round at the window side you see loads of rats. The steaks have no taste whatsoever and we had a big group with different orders and they all said the same thing. You wait ages for starters and mains. It’s well over priced for nothing better than a wetherspoons would offer if not worse. Seasoned fries had no seasoning as well. I’m not a chef but even I can cook better steaks than those chefs with very little effort.

Went in for an Anniversary dinner this evening with a gift voucher from Christmas. Lauren our server was so efficient, polite and helpful - she really made the experience that extra bit special. She even really assisted with our allergy requests and double checked all the items over whilst we ordered - so cautious, a total star! All the staff on the floor looked so professional and cheery interacting with guests, it was refreshing to see! The food was absolutely brilliant and served promptly and we tried the new chocolate cake sharing dessert; it was HUGE but so worth it! Did not disappoint and we will be back😊

Food was okay, dont see why the food so overrated and over priced. Service was very good. Dancing and music was great.

Such a lovely service from Diane, so helpful with the menu and friendly! Food was great as always. Thanks!

Fantastic service: Our server was called Thomas, a really nice young man without trying to be. He was very knowledgeable about menus and answered our questions before we asked them. Our steaks were fabulous, and just as requested, all other food was just marvellous .

Had a 3 course meal for 2 with a couple of soft drinks each which was around £115. A much better location than the city centre venue. Fairly light portions. Decent meal, Staff are excellent, plenty parking. Worthwhile for an occasion treat visit knowing its on the expensive side for value.

Place was dirty and uncared for flowers on bar were dead and water was green needs a bit a TLC

Diane our waitress is honestly the nicest person you could ask for.. very helpful nothing is a problem… 10/10

Great service today, hot food. We went at lunch time for the 3 course offer.

Graham totally made our night ! His amazing customer service and overall great attitude set us up for having the best night a totally memorable staff member which is so great to receive in hospitality especially on a such a busy night we always felt attended too and looked after , the food was absolutely amazing and we loved the cocktails !

Last minute lunch friday lunchtime. Lunch menu well priced food top notch

First time at Miller &Carter after family and friends recommended. To be honest, disappointed. The starter, nachos, were not very palatable, guacamole was watery and we only ate a few. Not to be discouraged, we ordered the Chateaubriand, and wanted it well done ..(I know people will criticise) but we waited quite a long time (1 hour and 15mins) and when it came it was still med rare!!! We sent it back and 10mins later it came back and was OK...but the chips were cold . Table service was Brilliant 👏, and the manager gave us dessert for nothing.. which was appreciated. Won't be rushing back, sorry...

Food was amazing, Diane served us she was brilliant, very cheery and attentive able to answer any questions.

Seats, floor, toilets all filthy. Boiler broken so no heat but no warning when booking or by email. We asked to move somewhere warmer in restaurant and was told by the seating lady there wasn’t anywhere. Pointed out filthy seat beside us to her but nothing done about it until more guests tried to sit down. Management poor. Waiter Tom I think his name was, was very helpful. Steaks AMAZING! Creme brûlée disappointing.

Unfortunately not a great dining experience. I can’t fault the staff whose service was excellent but the central heating wasn’t working and my wife found a large black hair in her desert. We were discounted for this but it has really put both of us off ever going again. Something you need to take up with your supplier. Not a good look.

delicious. steak was heavenly, service was lovely, and the overall vibe is just the icing on the cake. Or the beef dripping on the steak if you know what I mean! would recommend.

Excellent food , great staff in an easy to reach destination.

I paid £78 for a cold meal without chips this going on FB Happy Valentines 💝

It was a wonderful experience. Service was brilliant & steaks were cooked to perfection.

The Newton Mearns branch is our go-to Miller & Carter for a casual date night, Diane as always made us feel at home right from the get go and was very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is chilled out and the food is always spot on here, we will keep coming back! We got the sticky chipotle chicken and cauliflower wings to start, and the chocolate brownie to finish.

We had a fab time here and our server Diane was so pleasant and helpful with us! She also is very funny and is very attentive! Makes the experience in the restaurant feel a lot more at ease. Food was also fab and Diane even helped alter my foods due to dietary requirements and she wasn’t pushy either she was extremely patient! Lovely lady! Makes us want to go back! X

Great food but with no heating and having to eat your dinner with your jacket on was not ideal also no hot water and hand drying facilities blowing freezing cold air this experience was not great I’m afraid.

Loved the place , from minute I walked through door till I left service was amazing . Our table server / waiter was amazing and extremely helpful .

Excellent meal we all enjoyed the experience

Food was delicious as per usual! Charlene was our server for the night. She was very approachable and friendly. Thanks for a great night!

Terrible meal disappointed never again over priced quality terrible tasteless overcharged I feel

Newton mesrns restaurant Diane was our host couldn't have asked for a better experience on my birthday thank you

FOOD: We went here on a Sunday and had the Sunday sharing platter. Only one word to describe it... MAGNIFICENT!... Great steak, delicious lamb and tasty chicken. The sides were great too, and the beef dripping gravy was amazing. SERVICE: our server was cheery and knowledgeable. No issues. DECOR: Pleasant surroundings. Toilets were clean. X-FACTOR: This particular restaurant had a big car park and is easy to get to, giving it an advantage over the one in the city centre. VFM: Although the Sunday sharing platter seems quite expensive, when you taste it, I think it is well worth the money. Thoroughly recommended.

Food up to usual excellent standard. Service was poor. Place was I would say over busy. Waiters had trouble coping. Big delay before main course.

Not delivered and restaurant can’t help. Absolutely shocking, Nobody can help.

Absolutely stunning food excellent service couldn't fault any thing definitely will b back xxx

M&C has always been one of my favourite restaurants and we always celebrate special occasions here. Unfortunately, I was really disappointed with my latest visit on my birthday. Firstly, we were shoehorned into a table in a corner at the back of the restaurant, with two other tables right beside us, so close that it made us feel uncomfortable. The decor appeared tired and in dire need of a lick of paint, not what I would expect from a restaurant of M&C standard. The young girl who was serving was lovely. However, after ordering our food we waited 50 minutes for our food to arrive. Not ideal, particularly with two children with us. The food was ok but it was just warm. We had waited so long that we ended up eating it anyway. There was also another table who were in the same boat and who we heard complain to the manager. This put me off and I don’t think I’ll be rushing back any time soon.

The food is always delicious. The chipotle chicken starter is superb Matthew our server was really nice and attentive as are all the staff.

The food was delicious, beautifully presented. Our waiter (Graeme/Graham) was helpful, friendly and was attentive without being at all intrusive. The restaurant was very busy so we probably waited a little longer than usual to be served, but that was ok. The only slight niggle was the area we were in wasn't very warm.

Never eaten in a restaurant where you HAD to keep your coat on as it was so cold. Most of the people there were all wearing coats which made sense and spoiled a good evening out . Would not return to this location as this was the first time as we usually go too the main one in Glasgow. Food was of course good however the experience ruined by such low temperatures in the restaurant. Other complaint is that the waiter. Must have bumped into my chair a dozen times. Unsure if he can’t walk straight but horrendous waiter. Would never waste good money in here again . Go to the main one and not the trading centre one in Newton Mearns.

Lovely food as always at M & C but ‘warm and inviting’ it was not. Fortunately on a previous visit to our favourite restaurant, we were seated next to a radiator and, within arm’s length of the control valve. No such luck this time when our closest lukewarm radiator gradually cooled down to ‘cold’ minutes after we were seated. Noticeably, at adjacent tables diners were reaching for another layer clothing as the temperature continued to drop during our Saturday afternoon visit. OK, it was winter, in Scotland, with just 2 degrees outside, and energy prices have soared in the last year but please M&C, do ensure that we can enjoy your brilliant service and excellent food in that promised ‘warm and inviting’ atmosphere.

Diane was an incredible host. Knew the answer to any questions we had and was more than happy to give recommendations and be honest in the process.

Had a lovely meal today 20/01/2025 server was the lovely Thomas who was fab and very efficient. Wee problem with my steak but was quickly resolved and wasn't charged love the newton Mearns restaurant x

First class, food, service and ambience.

We had a lovely family meal for my daughters birthday today and the service was top class the food was lovely also

Was served by a lovely lady named Diana - she was observant, sociable and overall really nice. Food was super yummy as well, definitely recommend (this is for u Diana 🫶🏻)

Exceptional food and brilliant service. Really quick food service and no loss of taste. Would recommend.

Brilliant food at a great value

Fantastic food. Paul was our server and he was awesome. Thanks for some great steak, service and patter.

Always quality food and service at Miller & Carter especially at Newton Mearns. Thomas was extremely attentive, friendly and nothing was too much of a bother - including a gluten free menu. He even recommended a sauce that was nicer that what I would usually go for! Top quality all round!

Lovely chateaubriand cooked to perfection the service paul gave us was great would defo return again

As always an exceptional meal with family our server Thomas was first class as well

Food was great. Served by Thomas who was very friendly and welcoming and made the experience that little bit better for us. Great service, will definitely be back

It was a good dinner just disappointed that they ran out of some selections that we only got told about before we ordered Creme brulee could have been cooked a bit more on top

Bar was cold and too bright. No atmosphere. Food was mediocre and nothing special. Expensive for the quality of food we received. Tables were very close to one another. More like an expensive Wetherspoon’s than a specialist restaurant. Bit of a dinosaur as far as I’m concerned and in need of a facelift.

Tremendous food and brilliant service. Our server, Charlene, was exceptional. Can't wait to go again.

Food outstanding as usual, partner gutted the chorizo starter/side had changed as it was her favourite starter but everything else spot on.

Wonderful meal yet again at newton mearns restaurant. Great server Kirsten 5*

Diane is an amazing host and server. Lovely to talk to 10/10 service which complimented the food perfectly! UPDATE: came in again 2 years later and Diane remembered us! 10/10 service again and delicious food.

Food was real good but the service was so much better! Diane is a real credit to the front of house team here and I don't think our dinner would've been half as good with someone else helping us out. She gave great recommendations based on what we were after and spent lots of time ensuring we were happy with everything! People like this deserve recognition and rewards as you don't want to loose them!

First time we've been here and very happy with the meal and service. Steak was perfectly cooked and very tender

Had an amazing dinner here the other night! Service was brilliant and our server Michelle was a gem! Would recommend:)

The food was delicious and the service from Antony (Tony) was very good keep up the good service. And we will definitely be back in the near future

The food and staff are really outstanding and will be back again. The only room for improvement is to mark parking bays and update the decor a bit as it is looking tired.

Dinner was delicious, lovely young man served us very pleasant never got his name assest to the team

Lovely place, great staff. Food a little disappointing.

Thomas was a lovely waiter and catered to all our needs! the gluten free menu for coeliacs like myself was amazing! Loved it! We will be back!

Everything was pretty good but didnt get my mac and cheese

Never been disappointed in this place!

Well I was looking forward to a good quality meal delivered to my home. However, it arrived missing the drink, my steak sauce, iceburg wedge and the ‘crushed new potatoes’ were just halved boiled new potatoes! Not worth the fortune I spent honestly. Wont be ordering again.

Love coming here for Sunday dinner & special occasions. Quality food cooked as per your specifications. We always seem to get the same server ‘Thomas’ who always on hand for additional napkins and/or drinks and such a warm pleasant server. Cannot recommend it highly enough

Great experience during our visit, all the staff were friendly and helpful, the food was excellent, cooked to our individual requirements.

After being shown to the table by the boy with glasses at front of house, I was rudely told to remove my hat at the table? Is this policy? Because afterwards someone else came in wearing one, was shown to their table by a waitress and nothing was mentioned.. Now on to the food, ordered the fillet steak, medium well, arrived and was raw in the middle. Bit into one part and was like jelly.. Get a choice of sauce with your wedges which we both thought were potatoe, in reality, it’s just a cut of lettuce... The only nice thing about the experience was the waiter. Sadly wont be back and at the price, was majorly disappointed, would not recommend. 👎🏼 Added; Jodie, that’s because the review was updated. Therefore, it tells you when it was updated (last week). The food served, is still the same so still very much valid.

Way relaxing atmosphere and food is amazing every time.

Paul our server was amazing. Food was all delicious and most enjoyable.

First visit for my birthday lunch and most certainly won't be the last. Amazing Food and the best service ever from Graham. Definitely makes your dinning experience so much nicer when you have a top server. Thank you for a lovely lunch 🫶

Lovely evening with my husband food was amazing and our server Thomas was attentive and charming great experience would recommend

Really nice meal, everything was cooked just the way we asked. Matthew our server was brilliant, lovely guy.

The welcome was friendly and the Christmas decorations were lovely. Thomas our waiter was very helpful, nothing was to much trouble. All three courses of our lunch were excellent, absolutely no complaints.

Great service by Kirsten, pleasant and made some chit chat, very personal experience 👍

Great wait staff. Lovely atmosphere. I had the steak sandwich. The steak was excellent but I didn't really like the onion fritter on top of the steak. Personal choice😄

Great Service and really good Steaks

I'm furious i always buy this same food from this restaurant and always its looks fresh and normal size of portion, but what I get today its a joke ,steak its not a 80z size burn and I get 2,5 tiny baby potato thats size of portion not even for a teenager only for a child not for adult person, I always buy this same so I know what I get previously, I'm hungry and tired and I must throw up that food and buy another one im not a pig I will not eat food whats its old ,and nobody will tell me that I'm crazy because I know what I got previously, I call the restaurant but nobody pick up

Lovely experience. Amazing food and service.

We had a phenomenal meal here tonight. Weather ruined our original wedding anniversary plans but Ellis and the team made sure to make the day special!

Excellent service and a nice meal
