Been going to tonic for many years and have never been let down. I visited last week and had the hot damn chicken burger which was amazing. Great selection of unusual bottled beers as well. Customer service is excellent and makes you feel very welcome. Amazing work from everyone at Tonic, so glad you are back open.

Popped in on our way home from Edinburgh as we hadn't been here in years. Menu is much the same, bit pricier but still good value & food is as good as ever. I had the cajun chicken wrap, waffle fries & slaw. Recommend 👍🏽

I had lunch with my mum on Friday here as they had just reopened for meals inside from the Monday. They have all the essentials set up to be covid safe, you have to pre book, easy covid rules to follow which are printed on the menu, and the inside of tonic is now well set up to be covid safe in that you are far enough away from other people with protection without feeling like some sort of leper! When the staff came to take our order, I explained to the girl that my mum was deaf, and without a word she removed her mask and reasked the question. It's such a nice touch, because there are not many people who would do that just now! Which is also understandable, but unless someone has a clear plastic face mask (they actually exist, some have windows!) there's not really another alternative.The menu is somewhat cut down in that instead of their usual 30 plus burgers theyve chosen 7 or 8 of the most popular ones, which certainly makes picking easier! All the usual customisation methods are still there!We got our burgers, ate them up and left which is where I picked up 2 things. They don't accept tips at present. This is because they are not accepting money, and they can't take the money out of the till if the tip is paid for by card. I understand how annoying it is when you go to pay by card and you're forced to decline a tip on the machine, but the option would be nice. The staff are going above and beyond just now. Also, it was maybe just me, but it wasn't clear that you come into tonic through the main door and leave through the fire exit! I'm sure it caused much mirth me trying to shout on my deaf mum to go the other way when she has her back to me!Anyway, well done tonic on providing a normal service with so many restrictions placed on you!

El servicio fue maravilloso y el personal estuvo más que feliz de adaptar un plato a sus necesidades. Nos explicaron muy bien las reglas de COVID y se tomaron todas las precauciones. Se ofrece una amplia gama de bebidas. Comida deliciosa con porciones más que adecuadas, aunque descubrí que mi envoltura tal vez podría haber tenido un poco menos de salsa y un poco más de carne, ¡pero esa es solo mi preferencia personal! Excelente relación calidad-precio. ¡Definitivamente se recomienda reservar con al menos un día de anticipación! ¡No puedo esperar para regresar!

La comida era estupenda como siempre, recomiendo encarecidamente la hamburguesa de las tierras altas y la hamburguesa de macarrones con queso tan sabrosa! ¡Las papas fritas cajún también son increíbles! Las bebidas son fabulosas con una amplia selección. Los servicios fueron rápidos, amables y útiles con muchos procedimientos establecidos para que COVID 19 siga las pautas actuales. Definitivamente volveremos.

Desde que se alivió el bloqueo, hemos intentado salir a comer al menos dos veces a la semana, especialmente en lugares que realmente nos gustan, para invertir algo de dinero en ellos y ayudarlos a mantenerse a flote en estos tiempos difíciles. Tonic siempre fue nuestro lugar favorito para una hamburguesa, ¡ya no!Para resumir, tuvimos una variedad de problemas en una visita reciente: la camarera no pudo hacer el pedido correctamente (solo dos de nosotros), no podía creer lo horrible que era la hamburguesa, se suponía que era una hamburguesa con chile, una cucharada de chile en una hamburguesa espantosa. Tenía un sabor extraño, así que le di la vuelta, estaba negro quemado en el fondo, así que regresé. La hamburguesa del marido no se quemó, pero no se parece a las que solías conseguir aquí: barata pero comestible.Se le acercó otra camarera (¿Senior / Manager?) Que claramente no había tenido capacitación en servicio al cliente, ¡discutió conmigo sobre mi queja! Al final, ella quería cobrar por la comida no consumida (afirmó que estaba a medio comer, ¡absolutamente no es cierto!) - Me negué. Finalmente se dio cuenta de que no iba a cambiar, así que canceló la factura. Cuando llegó la factura, mi marido notó que nos habían cobrado por 2 copas grandes de vino en lugar de 2 medianas, por lo que la factura tuvo que cambiarse nuevamente. No dejamos propina.Las instalaciones cumplen con todas las regulaciones de COVID. Sentí que el lugar se sentía muy frío y triste. Dicho esto, otros pueden encontrar esto muy tranquilizador.No volveremos y no lo recomendaríamos.

Específicamente fuimos a la tónica, ya que durante años hemos escuchado a la gente hablar sobre sus hamburguesas. El panecillo de pretzel de los frenos estaba delicioso, pero eso es de esperar, ya que la tónica no hace eso. Mi hamburguesa estaba asquerosa. . . Después de quejarme me "aseguraron" que mi hamburguesa era "casera". . . . Cómo el chef de tonic se las ha arreglado para conseguir una hamburguesa de ternera "casera" con el sabor de una hamburguesa barata comprada en una tienda es algo que me supera. No solo tenía un sabor barato y horrible, era de color rosa brillante y parecía un trozo de salchicha de Lorne. . . Por lo tanto, es seguro decir que mi primera experiencia en tonic fue terrible y ciertamente no regresaré. . . . Ah, y la ensalada estaba podrida y marchita. . . . despedir a los cocineros, son malos, malos, malos

Fui aquí el jueves por la noche y me decepcionó mucho, el cordial de grosella negra en mi bebida era horrible y la bebida tampoco estaba muy fría, sin embargo, el restaurante estaba helando y básicamente temblaba en mi asiento todo el tiempo. Mi hamburguesa tenía literalmente tres ingredientes, pensé que vendrían automáticamente con lechuga y tomate o cosas de esa naturaleza, pero no había nada que la convirtiera en una hamburguesa muy horrible. Ni siquiera había terminado con nuestro entrante (nachos, genial como siempre) cuando pude ver que nuestra comida salía del ascensor, así que los camareros se apresuraron a recogernos, pero las hamburguesas ya estaban un poco frías cuando las conseguimos como estaban. Ya había estado en la barra por unos minutos, habría dicho algo pero el camarero nunca regresó para ver cómo estábamos y ver si todo estaba bien, aunque esa es una de las reglas básicas de la camarera. Solía amar la tónica, pero definitivamente elegiré otro restaurante la próxima vez que salga a comer.

Visited here as we bought a deal from a website, which included burgers and a cocktail each. There was a bit of a mix up with our booking and we were called to ask if we still planned on eating there. When I advised that we had changed our booking the girl I spoke to went out of her way to ensure we managed to get rebooked when we wanted. Every member of staff was friendly, helpful and efficient. The girl who had called us to check our booking took time to apologise for this. The burgers were really tasty, portions were good and were cooked fresh. The cocktails were really nice and tasty and presentation was excellent.

Tonic es un bar / restaurante en la zona de lujo de Perth Road de Dundee, muy cerca del centro de la ciudad. La comida es buena, con porciones muy decentes a un buen precio y el personal es amable. Sin embargo, el inodoro (masculino) era rancio, con un olor absolutamente desagradable, lo suficiente como para que sus ojos se llenen de lágrimas debido a la falta de aire acondicionado. Esto estropeó un almuerzo realmente agradable y lo pensaré dos veces antes de volver aquí.

Tonic was a regular haunt for me during my student years and continues to be one of my favourite Dundee restaurants. I was there last night on a work night out and everyone seemed to really enjoy their food. The staff were all friendly and attentive, the only blip being when they forgot to bring us dessert menus, (we had to ask for them at the bar,) however it was busy and this was quickly rectified. The food and drinks arrived promptly and there is a huge amount of choice on the menu. I feel the value for money was fair (£32 for 2 courses, 2 gin and tonics and a cocktail.) I’ve been coming to Tonic for years now and will continue to do so :)

Went for the 16oz Tonic burger which comes with chilli, cheese and crispy onion. The 16oz is with 2 8oz Patty's so was pretty huge.The burger were delicious, cooked perfectly with the right amount of extras to compliment. Didnt feel horrendous afterwards which I was preparing for.Shout out to the 2 very friendly and helpful waitresses who were the only 2 in working as it was crazy busy in there (being one of the only restaurants open in Dundee on the 2nd).Also shout out to the only 2 chefs working as the food came out really quick considering.

Solía ir allí a menudo con mi novia para probar nuevas hamburguesas interesantes de ese vasto menú de hamburguesas que tienen. La atracción principal para nosotros fueron los tipos exóticos de carne que podría usar como alternativa a la hamburguesa de carne de res, es decir. carne de avestruz, carne de cocodrilo, jabalí, cebra y la lista seguía y seguía. Cada hamburguesa era única.Lamentablemente, eliminaron esas opciones de su nuevo menú.Sigue siendo un buen lugar de hamburguesas / pub pero lo dejaré en eso.Podría volver en el futuro, pero los dos estamos un poco decepcionados de que se hayan deshecho del viejo menú

Visited with family for a birthday celebration. We all ordered burgers from the menu and some sweet potato fries to share. I have to admit that these were the best and tastiest burgers ever. Definitely got the thumbs up from everyone. Only downside was the price, bit expensive but we did have a voucher, otherwise we wouldn't have went.

Have visited many times over the years but finally decided to leave a review after coming in for lunch again today. If you're in Dundee and fancy a burger... go to Tonic! They have a huge selection some of which are very adventurous and you probably won't have come across before and you can choose between different sizes of patty and different types of bun, plus there are different types of fries to choose from. The cajun fries are to die for and I would actually go there for them alone! Service is always efficient and friendly. Cocktails are good too if you're just wanting to go in for a drink, as for the other food on the menu I can't comment as I've only ever had burgers when I've been there!

I visited Tonic last week with my husband who is a burger fanatic, so when it comes to burgers he is an expert. What a surprise it was to here him say that it was the best burger and sourdough bread roll that he ever had. So it was even more unusual for him to finish the whole meal.This was so unusual as he will almost always find a fault of some kind but instead said he can’t wait to go back. Staff lovely,happy, smiling and friendly and the service was excellent too.

¡He estado en Tonic muchas veces antes y después de mi experiencia la noche anterior nunca volverá! Fui a comer esta noche y dije que no estaba contento con que la hamburguesa de pollo fuera muy dura y asquerosamente frita. El camarero dijo que esto era simplemente muy malo y debería haber dicho algo antes, dando la impresión de que de todos modos no le importaba. Sin embargo, no nos preguntaron al final de nuestra comida cómo era la comida. Los platos se retiraron abruptamente sin posibilidad de decir algo. Evitar este lugar, personal inútil y comida cara?

had not been for a while, Tonic has had a bit of a make over, I opted for a hot dog smothered in chilly and cheese, plenty chips and coleslaw & a little salad, great value at under a tenner, nice pint of IPA ( served in an old fashioned pint pot) my wife went for a more traditional burger, which they are famous for, it was quite, but service was fine, we both lunched for about £30 so great value , will not wait so long before my next visit

Have been previously and it is generally great. However, I did not appreciate the treatment I received when I was asked for ID and was pretty much spoken down too. I am 20 years old and have been to tonic previously many times and have eaten there as an under 18 with family. Their policy seems very hit or miss and random in practice so as long as you are not rudely approached by a middle aged woman who I had never seen before but apparently worked there, then you should be okay. Sadly, I don't think I shall be visiting again because she was very rude and there are better places in Dundee to eat out.

We were here using a deal for burgers fries and a cocktail. There were no extra restrictions placed on the deal and we could choose from a very extensive menu. The food was great quality and generously portioned. We opted for mocktails and thoroughly enjoyed the whole meal. The cleanliness of the toilet really let the experience down. They were awful. The walls in the ladies cubicles were filthy.

The burger menu is amazing with lots of choice...you need to see the menu to believe it...from the size of burger e.g. 6oz, 8oz and upwards to the kind of roll you want and also the different fries you can have.

Myself and my wife come here often and for quite a small place its always busy. The atmosphere is always good, just a chilled out vibe, which i like, right next to a university, so it attracts a mostly young crowd. The food , mostly burgers, are cooked perfectly. As i said , ive been here loads of times and never had to return anything. I recommend the 8oz scotsman burger! ( you will need this size of burger to keep everything on the roll !) My wife likes the chicken burgers! Each to their own i suppose! The fact i keep returning, endorses my reccomendation. If you are a burger lover, come here , you will not regret it.

Saturday night, 13 people on our table. Not easy to do all at once I guess but it all came out together and was presented well. Waitress was fantastic, very chirpy, knowledgeable and confident, handled some of the difficult questions we asked well. I opted for the steak and onion burger on a pretzel bun which was tasty. The lattice fries were all stuck together and very greasy, not so nice. I also got jalapenos which were excellent. Price was reasonable. I've had better burgers for cheaper but they've got a great range of options, I hear the nachos were great. Check them out.

After popping in for coffees a few times a month, my colleagues and I thought we would try the takeaway breakfast rolls. We are rarely greeted with good customer service, but tend brush it off with a joke in favour of convenient coffee. However today was an exception. Never mind a broken card machine, a misplaced order, an incorrect order, or even the 30 minute wait. The audible sighs and eye rolling were unbearable. We felt unwelcome and belittled. I can't even be bothered to describe the state of our breakfast rolls. Now that it has been made perfectly clear you do not want our custom, we will not be back.

Had such an great time dining here last night, first class service and delicious food! They’ve made a real effort with the vegan/vegetarian options to make them far more interesting than your typical “falafel burger” you get in most places. My friend had a beef chilli burger which he also really enjoyed. Staff were really friendly and entertaining, offering great suggestions and recommendations - they clearly take a lot of pride in their menu! Also had a couple of cocktails which were delicious and an affordable price - highly recommended and will definitely be back!

This will be possibly the worst review I will ever give on TA. Went to this restaurant with the view of purchasing gift vouchers for Xmas presents for our kids. We decided to have breakfast here just to try it out. Service was okay not great but it was very early, waitress took our order which was 2 Tonic breakfasts, we also ordered our coffees which arrived quickly unfortunately we had finished them by the time our breakfast arrived, a full 20 minutes and it wasn't busy. The breakfasts were in simple terms disgusting and inedible. Everything on the plate was over cooked apart from the eggs and the toast. My wife left her plate with all the ingredients still in place, I managed the beans and poached egg and bacon. The worst breakfast we have ever had. We refused to pay for my wife's and this was accepted without any question from the person behind the bar. Felt embarrassed for the front of the house staff, those plates should never have left the kitchen!

The meat here didn't have much taste to it. Bread and side salad didn't look or taste fresh (maybe because it was Sunday?) and worst of all was the chips, tasted like they were re-fried or over-fried. Nobody asked if our meals were okay, the staff were more interested in chatting with their friends at the bar. The food we had matched the décor - Bland!

Chose this establishment over others in the area as it had better reviews online. The table was too high for the cushioned seat but apart from that the restaurant was a pleasant size with nice atmosphere and was most of all clean (although didn’t use the toilets so can’t comment on those). Staff were nice! The menu evidently specialised in burgers with over three pages of various garnishes for 6-24ounce patties with the option of venison, kangaroo, crocodile, wild boar and other interesting specials. At first glance I thought the menu seemed pricey but assured myself I would get value for money with my gourmet meal. I was wrong. The pattie tasted cheap, it reminded me of one you’d get out a burger van at a fair. The coleslaw was evidently shop bought when for all the trouble making a coleslaw is it would have made a big difference to the quality of the meal. The pretzel bun with melted cheese was however nice and paired with a higher quality patty would make a nice meal. The portion size was good and the wait time was neither too fast or too slow - however as the night went on and the restaurant became busier I did see other tables waiting much longer or being told they would face a wait as they entered. Tonic has so much potential and all it would take is a better quality meat supplier and the half an hour it would take (if that) invested into making homemade coleslaw to make this a lovely eatery serving genuinely gourmet meals that match their price tag. Having all the interesting garnishes such as ‘marshmallow’ and ‘peanut butter and jelly’ is all good and well but at least nail the basics first. Would return if the meat supplier was changed as this honestly rules out majority of the menu as hotdogs and nachos were basically the only other alternative.

Visited Tonic as part of a pub crawl with uni. Whilst the place had a nice atmosphere and the drinks were reasonably priced and were up to standard, I found the behaviour of the bar manager disgraceful. He was rude and patronising towards other customers, practically forcing them to say 'please' and 'thank you' despite them already being polite, and his attitude towards myself seemed somewhat condescending and belittling. The gentleman clearly needs some more training in customer service and I found his behaviour very strange and disconcerting considering we were paying customers. Weird place. Good range of drinks and reasonable prices let down by shocking service.

I had two visits in quick succession, one with a large group. The burgers (once you work out which of the many exciting choices to go for) are quite simply amazing and I really enjoyed the lattice fries.

Relaxed place for lunch. Good selection of food on the menu at reasonable prices. Service was good - friendly and efficient. Food came quite quickly. Well presented and hot. The food was surprisingly good and I would return on that basis alone. Nice place for a quick working lunch.

Have been here many times and Tonic never disappoints! I Got the firestarter burger 8oz with the cajun fries and thoroughly enjoyed it! The cajun fries are a must, compliment the meal perfectly! I also got the beef chilli natchos which are the best natchos i have ever had!

Eaten here many times and have never been disappointed. My husband loves burgers so ‘tonic’ is burger heaven to him. The choices are amazing! Prices and staff are excellent as are their cocktails, especially the French Martini which are yummy too. No complaints at all.

Probably the best burger in Dundee - never get bored of Tonic... think they’ve hiked their prices recently but still a great place.

Recently went here for dinner and the service was incredible. Throughout the night we had Mac, Daved and Keira I believe. They were all incredibly informative, perceptive and attentive. I have never received service like this while dining. The food was delicious and the drinks came as fast as they were ordered, each one better than the last. There was also a pub quiz hosted which was great fun and the whole place seemed to enjoy it. All in all it was a fantastic night due in part to the amazing staff who I can’t thank enough. If your ever in Dundee you don’t want to miss out Tonic.

Went to Tonic with my Wife after purchasing an ITISON voucher. I've been there several times before and have always found it decent but nothing special, and my opinion hasn't changed after this visit. We paid £16 for Burgers & Fries for two, with two Cocktails. I had a Beef Burger which was pretty good, my Wife had a Halloumi Burger, which had been battered and deep fried ( this was not made clear on the Menu ). She said that it completely ruined the Halloumi and She'd have much preferred it without batter, and simply fried or grilled. The Cocktails had to be chosen from a set list of six which lacked variety ( Four of them were Vodka based ( and they were all a bit sweet for my taste. My Wife said that the Cocktails weren't that good and were more like soft drinks as they lacked Alcohol. We had a perfectly decent time at Tonic and the service was very good, but I don't think that we'll be hurrying back anytime soon.

Called ahead to book a table for drinks for myself and a friend, twice my name was incorrect over the phone, I thought it had been corrected until we arrived and my name was still wrong - not even a spelling mistake - but an whole different name altogether, I understand it's not the easiest to hear over the phone, but asking for a hand with spelling / utilising the phonetic alphabet goes a long way. We had ordered drinks and a waiter brought them over & they were the wrong drinks, even though the waitress had read the order back to us when she had taken it, the waiter had come over twice with the drinks to make sure we were positive they weren't the right ones. Once we got our drinks, they were nice. Just a bit peeved at the lack of attention to someones name when taking a booking.

Just been to Tonic for lunch. Service was superb from Mack and Mel even tho the place was really busy. We had an issue with our Itison voucher which Mack resolved which was a nice touch. He was also very knowledgeable about the cocktails which helped the Mrs decide.

Visited Tonic on Sunday night for the pub quiz with friends. Quiz was a good mix of tricky and fun and is one of the best I've done in Dundee. Cash prizes and bonus prizes were a plus too.

This evening (29/05/18), my partner and I went to Tonic for a meal, after seeing the ITISON voucher deal online. I haven’t been here in a while so didn’t know what to expect but both of us were incredibly impressed!

Went with friends on a Saturday night, always best to book. Haven’t been for a while but glad to see it’s just as busy as ever. Food is still amazing with such a great choice, we all had a burger, they are just so tasty. Staff are always so nice and attentive in here too, you can’t leave without trying a cocktail either. Great atmosphere, great place...

We visited tonic today as a large party of 10. This was my first visit to tonic and I speak for all of the party that we all left very impressed with the food as well as the service we had received from Adam. The burgers are delicious worth the wait from the kitchen and the service from Adam was second to none. Will definitely be visiting again soon

Was here on Saturday night , we had to wait an hour for a table because it was so busy, but it was well worth the wait. This place delivers every time we go. The choice of burgers is amazing. I had a chicken burger with pepper sauce and jalapeños, it was delicious, my partner had the Cajun chicken and salsa burger which she said was fantastic, we both had the lattice fries and side of onion rings and slaw. A great meal and washed down with a couple of great cocktails. Looking forward to our next visit

Popped into tonic after coming across it whilst staying in Dundee, the atmosphere was great and the staff also. Prices were what I would expect for a busy city centre bar, overall had a great time!

This reastaurant is convenient to the University. It offers a wide range of burgers, wraps and sililar food. Tasty and good value. I do find the venue a bit bland and lacking in character but that may just be me. It does not serve breakfast until 9 which is a bit of nuisance if heading to an early meeting

Having the notion for a burger and deciding the place in Dundee to get one is Tonic, is always the first thing on my mind.

I chose the smallest portion and was full by the time I put my knife and fork down. You can order different portion sizes. Only drawback is disabled toilet is down a flight of stairs (reason for 4 stars otherwise it would have been 5 stars).

Popped in on the way back to Glasgow one Sunday after visiting family in Dundee. Was told this is the place to be for a burger if you were in the Dundee area. Ordered Texan Hat and my good lady didn’t want beef and asked if she could substitute it for a venison burger instead. No problem, we’ll just swap a beef burger for Venison. Cool. When our food arrived, I had to send my burger back as is was pink on the first bite meaning still raw in the middle. They didn’t cook a fresh burger or fries but instead just re-cooked it which was a poor show as upon the return of my plate, my bacon fries was cold and soggy. Upon collecting my bill I noticed my girlfriends burger had a £5 surplus on which I queried? On the menu it states at the side “speciality” which is vastly more expensive than beef no matter what you have. I’ve never been anywhere where you would be charged A - for the original burger and then an extra fiver to substitute it and B - where a 6oz Venison Burger is a £5 supplement! Especially such a poor quality one. Not sure I’d be back after two burgers and two cokes turned out to be circa £35. Very disappointing.

Couple of G and Ts served in little lemonade glasses grossly expensive and tasted of water Only. Been before several times we never learn appalling vfm. Staff member scoffing her dinner at the bar mega unprofessional. We've got the message this time never again

Staff friendly. Ordered chips and mince, macaroni and chips! Chips felt like double cooked/burnt! Poor tasting, this was approx 11pm. Would probably avoid during night in my opinion!
