Rancho Steak House in Edinburgh, City of

You would be laughed out of Argentina if you were served a steak like this. I ordered a fillet steak and it came like a flat minute steak around 6mm thick and tasteless. For almost £30 it was a joke. I won’t be back

Ein kleines Restaurant mit engagierten Mitarbeitern, welche super nett sind. Besonders Rozario hat sich sehr bemüht. Das Essen kam zügig und das Fleisch war auf den Punkt gegart. Preise sind angemessen.

A truly great experience! The best food on our round trip so far! Our steaks were cooked to perfection! The meat was top-notch! Side dishes, drinks... very good! The service was very attentive; we felt very well looked after! We will definitely come back here on our next visit to Edinburgh. Thank you for a lovely evening, Rozario! A truly great experience!

Very nice little restaurant. Super tasty steaks cooked to perfection. Know the difference between rare and medium-rate. Staff very friendly and courteous! It was a delicious and lovely evening.

The steak is delicious, the grilled chicken is delicious, and their potatoes are delicious. In general, their food is excellent, and the service and style are excellent, but the design of the restaurant is unfair. I recommend visiting it.

Unfortunately we were very disappointed! The food was average for a steakhouse. The staff was very abrupt and rude. We didn't feel comfortable there

Very good food and amazing fries. Quick service. A little loud music but the food was worth it. Recommend this place If you want good Meat.

Rare rib-eye, half of it was stringy tough fat so quality felt low. Staff weren’t very friendly. I’ve had much better steak elsewhere for the same price.

¡Uno de los mejores filetes que he probado! Mis amigos y yo entramos aquí en el último minuto y tuvimos uno de los mejores filetes que he tenido. El personal era muy amable. El filete estaba perfectamente cocinado y era masivo! Los lados eran grandes también. El tamaño de las porciones era tan grande que no podíamos tener postre!

We came in quite late, but we were treated very well and the recommendations from the waiter were amazing. Tasty, juicy, excellent. 5 straight Stars

I don't really like writing bad things. But I have to get rid of it. The food was okay, but the steaks were a bit dry. What I found worse, however, was that the waiter stepped on my foot twice and didn't even apologise. And when he was clearing the plates, he held them right in front of my face. I even pushed the plates away from me with my hand, but he wasn't interested. First impression of Edinburgh. Too bad.

Not good meat or steak Frozen fries that aren't cooked properly Unfriendly service Not a nice atmosphere

We went out for dinner as a group of five, and the experience was excellent. We ordered cuts of meat that were simply delicious — juicy and full of flavor. The service was top-notch — Rozario took great care of us with kindness and attention to detail. Even the chef came out to greet us, which was a gesture we truly appreciated. Everyone was very friendly and made us feel welcome at all times.

Incredibly well prepared food and good service. Great meat!

Rozario gave us a wonderful service and the chef was also very kind to us. The food was fantastic this restaurant is highly recommend 👍🏽

This steakhouse was surprisingly good. Don’t judge a book by its cover because the food was amazing. Could do with a with make over. The staff are friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a visit.

i had an amazing dining experience at Rancho, Edinburgh this Tuesday. The beef steak was cooked to perfection- juicy, flavourful and exactly how i wanted it. The customer service was equally impressive, the staff were warm, attentive and made sure everything was perfect. Definitely a place I’d recommend and will be coming back to.

Das Steak war super, genau wie es sein soll. Die Bedienung war auch sehr freundlich, aber nicht aufdringlich. Einfach gut!

Well absolutely disgusting behaviour from the staff of this place tonight, table for 8 booked for 2000 tonight, arrived at 2001 refused to acknowledge our booking. Really looking forward to dining here because of the good reviews but it became obvious that a bigger party had come in without booking so GREED got the better of them. I have never experienced something like that before. Rancho I hope you are proud of what you have done 👍👍 Never to be trusted please avoid this place as clearly they cannot be trusted.

Excellent steak, excellent service and excellent value. Rozario looked after us but all the staff were well organised, courteous and efficient. Definitely recommended.

Lovely little place. The food is amazing. We had the trio rancho which was 3 types of steak and chips with a side of mushrooms and onion rings. For the price this was absolutely amazing. The service was excellent and the staff were lovely. Would definitely visit again.

Looking for good steak restaurant and this one came . Welcoming , great service and excellent food . We had Nacho starter , Rump steak with garlic butter , sirloin steak with blue cheese hollandaise sauce both with chips , then sticky toffee pud with ice cream, deluce cheese cake .

I found this restaurant on Trip Advisor and was not disappointed! The food was delicious, the atmosphere very relaxing and the service was excellent; special mention to our waiter, Rozario. I will definitely visit again on my next trip to Edinburgh, thanks guys x

Absolutely delicious steak cooked beautifully. Good wine, good sides all cooked well and prices reasonable. Really good find really enjoyed our food and would come again! Nothing too much hassle, service really good. My boyfriend had Absolutely delicious ribs and we loved the home made chimichurri sauce

Very good steakhouse with a lot of choice. The service was okay, unfortunately the food was served a bit chaotically, the starters and main courses all came together, which became very cramped on the table for 4 people. Nevertheless, the food was very tasty and there was a very large selection. Normally you wouldn't complain about large portions, so this isn't a complaint, but rather an indication that the portions are really large (especially the vegetarian menu). It's a shame if something goes back because it was really delicious. The shop is a bit small, so you have to like it cozy. The prices were very fair, so definitely recommended! :)

It was absolutely delicious! The steals were very tender and the jacket potato was delicious! I can definitely recommend the king prawns. The staff were so helpful, especially Rosario, he was very polite. The steals are done completely to your liking We would definitely return!

Great steak before the rugby, there’s a fixed lunch menu. All the dishes we seen looked great. Service was good, it’s a small restaurant, steaks were delivered in plenty of time.

Went on a Saturday night with my partner . We got serviced quickly on the booth and the waiter took our orders. The Waiter was judgemental because we had only one starter, The squid was good. The chicken was also very nice however when asked for our steaks to be medium rare , we received them Well done . I was disappointed with the quality of the meet in general , We get better steak at home and that's sad coming from a bill of 70 £ ( service charge included) Not visiting again

An ideal place to eat. Very, very generous portions. VERY affordable prices (even in Edinburgh). The chef speaks Spanish and is fantastic. If you are Spanish and are looking for a place to eat or dine at a very good price (especially if you are on a travel budget) I totally recommend it! And if you're not Spanish, too! The waiters speak English and speak some Spanish. Come on, a fantastic experience!!! The rib with barbecue sauce is spectacular, the empanadas, the Creole rice, the fries, THE LAMB!!!! Everything super delicious.

Cozy wee steak place in the West End of Edinnurgh. Food was top quality, steaks amazing. Mar Y Tierra was superb and Rancho Plato a terrific plate. This place is well worth visiting. 🙌

La comida como siempre fue increíble Me sorprende que este restaurante no tenga más reconocimiento, nunca he tenido una comida promedio aquí y por el precio lo que no es para amar! Inténtalo y no te decepcionarás

Fabby starters: chorizo sausages & lamb chops. Followed by steaks with trimmings. Nice bottle of Argentinian Malbec. Good service from friendly staff. Good value. Would recommend.

Super friendly staff and we were so happy this place was open for Christmas dinner (because our original reservation cancelled and closed). Ranch Steak House was a delicious and fantastic meal for our large group. Highly recommend.

No te dejes llevar por la decoración rústica. La comida y el servicio eran fantásticos. Mi marido tenía un filete de grupa increíble y yo tenía fabulosas chuletas de lámpara. El servicio fue excelente. Definitivamente volveremos.

The worst sirloin steak my daughter had ever eaten. It was very chewy and very fatty. When we complained the waiter said that ribeye steaks are fatty. We had to remind him it was meant to be a sirloin. I had to send my salmon back as it was raw and when it came back it has been out on the griddle rather than being grilled. Avoid this restaurant.

We had a rib-eye steak and squid combination. We also had grilled prawns. Combined it with their house red which was phenomenal. Loved every dish!

Great food and great service. Our party of 3 all ordered steaks cooked to our individual preferences and we were not disappointed. The sauces and sides were delicious. Great service in a pleasant atmosphere.

Un grupo de nosotros fue a una comida de Navidad en equipo y no podía faltar nada. El servicio y la comida eran brillantes. El bistec estaba perfectamente cocinado.

Absolutely banging steak bar. Couldn’t recommend more. I’ve had a lot of steak and it’s excellent!

Wasn't the greatest start. Asked for a fresh orange and lemonade. Didn't even know what it was. Asked and they said yes they do french fries but got given chunky chips then the guy said that's the only 1s we do. clearly some communication error. Steak could have been warmer. Restaurant could have been warmer also.

Fidandoci delle recensioni decidiamo di cenare qui. Prima cosa negativa dato che c’era la partita di rugby troviamo un menu dedicato alla serata con poca scelta. Optiamo per una t bone e una rib eye. Carne di qualità scarsa cotta male. Sicuramente non tornerei

Amazing food, excellent service and very reasonable prices. We will definitely visit again.

Estuve un par de veces y el filete siempre ha sido fantástico, cocinado exactamente como lo solicitas. Personal amable... Definitivamente volveré

Great place to eat, would highly recommend.

Excellent food. Huge plates, portion sizes are massive. Reasonable priced. Friendly staff. It’s worth a visit. We’d definitely go back.

Really wish I'd read the reviews more before going! So expensive for what you get - underwhelming for a stakehouse, felt more like a chippers. Steak was fine but side salad was super basic. Chips were also just like ones you'd buy in the frozen section of a shop.

We were three friends looking for a good steakhouse in Edinburgh, and after checking Tripadvisor, Rancho Steak House seemed like a good choice. Let me start by highlighting the steak, which was well-prepared and tasted excellent, along with a well-baked potato and a nice mixed salad. So far, so good. However, the restaurant showed a lack of professionalism, and we did not have a great dining experience. The bottom line is that we simply felt that the staff lacked experience in serving: - The beer served before the meal was not chilled. - The red wine glasses were far too small. - We asked for water but didn’t receive any. - The food was served far too early, even though we had requested to be served after finishing our beer. - There was no follow-up to see if we wanted dessert (we had to call for that ourselves). - The Remy Martin Cognac after the meal was served in schnapps glasses. We did not expect this to be a five-star restaurant, but I believe the restaurant could easily improve the experience by tightening up their routines and presenting themselves as more experienced servers

Excellent steak with a good selection of sizes. 9/12/16oz.

great food at great prices. the steak is to die for. service is quick. amazing lamb and ribs also. hands down my favourite restaurant in the city

Had the meat combo and empanadas. All very good Lots of food. All tasty, Reasonable price, good service. I definitely recommend.

Far to crammed I couldn't move my arms properly , have dining out tables shrunk in the wash. I remember there being space to move but no .. staff to busy to be attentive but friendly enough , once again gratuities on bill I don't do that we are not America I choose what or if I leave a tip and how much .. I know this is discretionary .. food was lovely though

Åt deras rump steak med pommes och pepparsås. Galet nöjd med maten och servicen. Rejäla portioner och perfekt stekt(medium rare) köttbit! Rekommenderar verkligen för alla som vill ha en god köttbit i Edinburgh

Very very bad! Not recommended!!! Just terrible! Salad was older than the waiter. If there were negative points, I would have given them to the “restaurant”!!!

Salmon was okay but definitely not worth the price. The salad was old and came completely dry. The sauces tasted like chemicals. The fries were worse than frozen fries. No recommendation!!! Stay away!

We found this place by mistake while walking and looking to get dinner. It is small on entrance and not very large inside. But, the food was spectacular, service was terrific and prices were great. We could not stop raving about this little, hidden gem to friends in Scotland and back here in Canada. A very cool, moody atmosphere. Talking to other customers, they also enjoyed their meals.

We came before a concert in the Usher Hall. No complaints, great food, large portions, came quickly. Would come again if in Edinburgh.

Personally, disappointed overall after seeing Trip Advisor 2023 top diner award. Steak my wife got was slightly warm, almost appeared to be pre-cooked, then warmed to serve. Tender yes, flavorful, not so much. Overall underwhelming.

Worst rib eye steak I’ve ever ate. It took me a while to eat it, as it was very chewy. I ended up giving more than half of mine to my partner. The chips tasted like they were frozen chips and deep fried, very oily. The peppered sauce came in a tiny ceramic pot, that you could only fit a small teaspoon in to. The presentation was disappointing, on a plain white small sized plate with 1 baby plum tomato and a few leaves of lettuce. Not served with onions, mushrooms or grilled tomato, that we usually get complimentary with a steak, here in Ireland. Extremely disappointed.

Alla ricerca del gusto Sardo abbiamo trovato questa perla nella periferia di Villasimius in una location suggestiva e affascinante dove il personale molto gentile e accogliente, in particolare Danny, ci hanno accolti e servito specialità locali. Menzione particolare al Porceddu e il Mirto finale che hanno reso felici me e miei amici Consigliatissimo

Amazing service and food. Best well cooked fillet I’ve had in a while. It had the best seasoning and was absolutely tender. Also baked potato with sour cream is great. 450 g of fillet is good enough for 2 people. Special thanks to Chiv and chef Tipu.

Incredible food, fresh and well prepared. If steak isn't your thing, they have some delicious chicken/fish dishes aswell, very generous portions too.

Nydelig mat (middag og dessert), gode porsjoner i en hyggelig og uformell atmosfære. Skjønn og trivelig betjening. Filet var nydelig og mør, godt med tilbehør. Anbefales

Had chicken which was tasty but nothing special, fries were very good. Big portions. Bit disappointing that they charge 10% service for a bigger group but we could not pay individually (min 30gpb payment)

I had the 350g steak. There was a tremendous amount of fat in it. I realize you need some for taste which was good but, the cutting the fat out every bite was too much. The service was good and prompt. The atmosphere is relaxed. The empanadas are Argentine style.

A lovely place for a meal and well priced. Steak was delicious.

If you want a steak cooked well, and at a great price, go to the Rancho in the West End of Edinburgh. The staff is friendly and makes you feel at home. The steaks are excellent! The Rancho is a wonderful place.

Large group of friends and family (19) visited and none of us were disappointed. The dishes may not be fancy or elaborate but all of us were delighted with what we got. All cooked perfectly and tasted awesome. Only small disappointment was the blue cheese hollandaise sauce which could have been more flavourful. The staff were very attentive and could not have done more for us. I know several of us that are looking to return the future. Keep up the good work.

We came in as last resort but came out out pleasantly surprised. The meat was great, the potatoes and provoleta salad were delicious. The bill was very affordable even after a couple of drinks. A place to come back time and again.

I was just walking by looking for something to take away quickly, I was really impressed by staff member who saw me reading the menu and came out to greet me, food was excellent, service was excellent and atmosphere was excellent. I recommend the prawns!

Very tasty food, perfect steak, nice staff. Even for larger groups

We had a dinner tonight, for if us, all had different food. I should admit the service was very good and quick and everyone enjoyed their food but me 😄 I'd ordered a ribeye steak and it was nicely flavoured but absolutely tough and I was unable to eat most of it though tried to cut from different parts . My husband's fillet steak was really good and chicken and salmon other had were delicious. But I left unpleasantly surprised with bad quality of mine. The waiter had apologised but we were offered no even little discount and paid the full price although I returned most of my steak. I understand that things like this happen sometimes but how they deal with it make a difference . I definitely expected better experience for £21. Also I should add that tables there are not really big enough for 4 people and sitting were uncomfortable.

Very nice service. Very tasty food, I recommend it!

Visited here on a week night, was relatively quiet but it’s really small so only needs a few tables for an atmosphere. We had steak/squid combo and whole sea bass, both were good quality and cooked perfectly. Such good value for the price! Already booked to go again 😊

This restaurant is cozy and near Haymarket station. The staff and service is great. Food is delicious. Especially the pork ribs were spot on 🙂

Gorgeous fillet steak, cooked perfectly!

Everything about The Rancho Steak House is great. Friendly efficient service. Food was cooked perfectly and at a fair price 👍👍

We got a quick bite there and the chicken was absolutely amazing. The seasoning was perfect and the meat was so soft it was delicious. Recommend this place 100%

I took my partner here for his birthday, this was our second visit to the steakhouse and yet again we absolutely loved it. The food is just first class and amazing value for money. They went above and beyond for us for his birthday and brought your a cake with a candle for him and it was so so appreciated. We can't wait to return.

Valentines dinner. We booked late, and the staff could not of been more accommodating. Food was delicious . Large portions . Steak was one of the best either of us have had (rib eye and sirloin). Jacket potato was to die for !! Service was prompt and friendly. Great meal great place.

Popped in here last night as had just travelled 7 hours to get to the city and we were starving. I ordered a rump and was assured that it was a nice cut for a rump and had never had any complaints. Steak was cooked to the requested temp but was the strangest cut style of rump I have ever seen. This looked like it had not be butchered properly. Not trimmed up and felt more like a flat iron steak. I didn’t complain or asked for this to be comped, just didn’t eat much of it. After the plates were cleared the waiter asked why I hadn’t eaten the steak, and I explained quietly. He came back again and advised the chef wanted to know what was wrong with it. So I explained again. He advised he would take the steak off of the bill ( great thanks, didn’t ask you too but Thankyou) He came back and asked again and would not drop the issue. I advised it had not been butchered correctly and was clearly bought in cheap, I asked on all three of our conversations where the meat was brought from but the question was avoided. Very clearly bought in super cheap, probably from bookers, where their chips, onion rings, leaf and sauce are all from. If you actually enjoy a nice steak then I wouldn’t bother going in here. If you like steak at Wetherspoons, this place is for you!!

Lovely experience! The host was brilliant with me and my partner, was even happy to take a picture for us for our memories of the weekend. Steak, lamb chops, and prawns were all cooked brilliantly and my partner loved the chimichurri! Definitely a 10/10 from us, and would recommend anyone looking for lovely food, and a lovely experience, thank you!

I was expecting a lot given the reviews. Instead, our steaks were hard to chew, the salad leaves looked old, and were dry, with no dressing, the mushroom sauce was watery, and the only red wine that you could buy by the glass was a mediocre merlot. Overall, it felt like mass produced cafeteria food, The only thing I enjoyed eating was the house chimchuri sauce. Definitely not worth the money. Was their regular chef on holiday?

Seems to have good reviews but honestly the worst steak i've had. Toliets were really dirty. Staff were friendly enough but honestly awful.

The steak is so nice as well as the chimichuri sauce. Delish. I will highly recommend this steak house. The staff is very accomodating and will help you all through out your meal.

The food was really great. My friends and I finished the chimichurri sauce because it was perfect paired with their steak. Reasonably priced and good service.

Steak is good and their own house sauce is delicious. We also ask to have some take away of their house sauce. The staff were also accommodating and very friendly.

The steak was tasty and served the way I really wanted. The staffs were very accommodating too. I highly recommend this place.

Rancho steakhouse is the best steakhouse in edinburgh. Food are too delicious and service are too excellent , waiters and waitress are so friendly . We will return soon Rancho.

experienced a good service. the staffs are really friendly and our food was served so quickly.the steak was so delicious! ..affordable menu as well :)

Overall a good experience, the meat was perfect and the grilled vegetables were also great. A few things are pointing out tho, we ordered sparkling water with squeezed lime, and we're given a few slices of lemon on a saucer, we were told they didn't have a "lemon squeezer" (??). The king prawns were tasty, but they were not cleaned properly.

What can I say. Was excited to try this place. Steak was awful! I had ordered a rump steak cooked Medium when it arrived it was barely rare. Felt like it was cooked my someone who didn't know how to cook steak. I understand these things happen and happily sent it back expecting the temperature to easily be corrected However when it was brought back it was well done in bits medium in others very inconsistently cooked, in addition the outside was charred so when I took a bite it tasted like charcoal, had a side of chips which weren't great either. I must say however staff were helpful and apologetic so can't fault the service. but I left hungry and very disappointed. Would not recommend.

Fantastic food , mixed grill and surf and turf..... super friendly staff.....brilliant

Well, where to start. Small restaurant tucked away where it is a cosy atmosphere. The food was good and service polite. Somewhere, I will be going again.

Fantastic Steakhouse, extensive well laid out menu. I only opted for main course as I was dining alone but the starters looked good. Definitely recommended food was cooked to perfection

We were visiting Edinburgh for the day and booked Rancho for a meal as my son really wanted some nice steak. We both had 12oz fillet that was cooked to perfection accompanied with some amazing fries. Added a side of Proveleta which i had never had before but will definitely be ordering again. My wife had the salmon and said it was delicious and cooked perfectly. It was my sons 18th birthday on the same day and the chef sent over some cheesecake with a candle and everyone sang happy birthday which was a great touch. Great food, great staff and i would highly recommend visiting Rancho and we will certainly be coming back again.

Very basic, food nice but a bit 'chainey'. Nice enough. Wouldn't rave about it though

Steak was nicely cooked Restaurant was not busy. Very tasty and food came out quite quickly

Not great at all was a terrible let down. Ordered a filet steak and it came full of fat, I managed to only eat half of it then was asked if i wanted it recooked, recooked? Disaster! Asked for something to be taking off the bill but kept refusing to do so, would NOT recommend this place. Family weren’t able to get dessert as they had lack of dessert options. Utterly Utterly disappointed. will not be going back. Already feeling ill, runied my christmas.

Went here with my wife last night for dinner. I had a mixed grill for 1. It was the best mixed grill that I have had in years! Highly recommend it. Also the mixed side salad and dressing was banging!
