Gaucho Edinburgh

Amazing dining experience. The meat was delicious

Second visit to Gaucho. Opted for Sunday Road as it was Easter Sunday. Restaurant was almost empty which was surprising. Staff excellent and very helpful. However, the yorkshire puddings were very disappointing and dry. The base of one was icy cold - obviously not fresh and not reheated enough. Broccoli spears were actually raw and inedible. To the waiter's credit he informed the chef and deducted 10% from the bill. We will still go back and try the Spring menu next time as the wine is excellent!

Good food, good wine and great service.

Having been several times previously I was looking forward to the evening. Sadly, I was at a table primarily facing the kitchen and the door so missed out on the excellent surroundings

I had on the best meat dishes I ever had. Quite pricey but also high value.

The whole experience was very good indeed with great service from all staff on a quiet Friday afternoon, not sure what it would actually take to make it outstanding for us so please be assured that this was a great lunch experience..

Lovely experience and very nice touch with a glass of complimentary prosecco on arrival for our celebrations.

Excellent service from everyone, from start to finish, and food was cooked perfectly!

Your very lackluster waiter that appeared to have NO interest in his job. He was unfriendly, minimally communicative and while there were very few tables occupied, your waiter was more absent than present.
Additionally, your charge of FIFTY POUNDS for the cheapest cut of steak is ridiculous. I'm all for a profit, but your overwhelming price tag for a small 5" skirt steak is insulting to any diner, especially a sophisticated diner.

The food was absolutely gorgeous but the atmosphere let the place down.

The music was unbearably loud to the point where we felt like we were shouting at each other across the table. The staff were nice but it all felt a little bit false. They were also super pushy about trying to give us bottled water for the table (had to say no 3 or 4 times before they eventually gave up)

The soft drinks were extortionate and for a 'large' soft drink we were given two tiny bottles of coke poured into a glass.

We regularly go for steak when we're at home in Glasgow as well as when we're travelling and I would say in terms of service its closer to some of the tourist restaurants abroad than a premium experience which is what we were paying for.

Overall, whilst the food was lovely, I wouldn't go out of my way to visit Gaucho again.

We can not fault this restaurant one bit. The staff where lovely and both the food and the restaurant itself were beautiful. I had one of the best steaks I have ever had, cooked to perfection and full of flavour. I will definitely come back.

Food was amasing and service very good but unforunately I could not understand the waiters very well. I also did not appreciate the service charge being added to my bill at the end of the evening. I can understand large tables but it was only myself and my husband there so to me 11.00 was far too much as we were only in the resturant for just over an hour.

An absolutely perfect experience in Edinburgh for Argentinian steak! Great selection of items and just delicious. Staff was phenomenal in making us feel at home and providing recommendations! Would go back in a heartbeat!

Beautiful food and beautiful restaurant will most definitely be back.

Lovely restaurant. Service was impeccable, staff very welcoming and knowledgable. Food was excellent, wine good but pricy, they didn’t have the cheapest wine by the glass available and the alternatives were expensive. But you don’t come to Gaucho on the a la Carte expecting a cheap meal out, you come because the food and service is brilliant and the restaurant is beautiful.

A bit expensive on the wine list otherwise exceptional

Excellent food and service, the surroundings are great to sit in!

Too much fuzz to eat something

Mother’s Day

Went in to celebrate my Mum's 60th birthday and everything was great. All the staff were very attentive and helpful and nothing was too much bother for them. The food was absolutely delicious too. We will definitely return

Fantastic service , wonderful with our young son

Service was excellent, very attentive but not too much so. Food was lovely and cooked to perfection.

Staff and service was great.. food was good but wine was a bit pricey per bottle.

We booked a table for 5pm and we were early, no problem. Very attentive staff and a wonderful meal.

Upon arrival we were met with a friendly member of staff who took us to our table. Menus, water and bread & butter were out pretty quick. Starter of scallops were well cooked, although the rocks of black pudding were a tad hard.
Main course we had chateaubriand with accompanying side dishes, which were superb. Wine was very good and waitress service equally so. Highly recommended.

Great and wonderful atmosphere and service.
The dining room is lovely

For price you pay I wasn’t impressed. Chips over salty and to many. Not enough steak sauce seeing it’s £3.
Steak was cooked perfect but had just as good at other steak restaurants

Food and drink are awesome. Very relaxed atmosphere no feeling that you need to eat up and go. Very nice staff with great knowledge of the food and drinks.
Highly recommend

Amazing food, good veggie and vegan options (not a huge selection but this is meat based resto after all). The service was a outstanding, everyone’s polite and helpful. We’ll be definitely back.

Girlfriends birthday outing. The steaks where amazing and the guy servicing had some really good knowledge about the steaks

Food and service were excellent
Rib eye steak beautifully cooked
Wines were very good
Will definitely be back

Can’t praise Gaucho highly enough. Meal was outstanding, and the staff could not have been more helpful. Will definitely return.

Beautiful restaurant with top class finish. Very quiet on our visit (we were the only guests for lunch). Steaks, wine and service amazing.

We came here for my fiancé`s birthday and with some friends.
Atmosphere was amazing but the service was incredible, Monika the polish waitress was stunning and gone beyond. The chef made me a dish that was not even on the menu (Beetroot Risotto) one of the best I ever had.
Many thanks, we will be back for sure :)

Great atmosphere , great service and food. Definitely be back

Fantastic dining room , excellent food with very attentive staff, more than happy to recommend and will definitely return.

Excellent as always, food and wine amazing. We will always visit when in the area.

My husband and I ate there on our last night in Edinburgh, honestly we thought the hype was more than the actual restaurant. The overall ambiance was nice though, the staff is very good at their job and we were very happy with the service and decor of the restaurant, it's a nice place to be and seemed to be full of people from all over. The reason we didn't love it was we felt it was expensive and the food wasn't all that great, portions were a bit small, and we ate better at other restaurants we happened upon than in this one that came highly recommended by trip advisor and the hotel. It's an ok place, we personally didn't love it.

Gaucho, as always never fails to deliver. There was a"first-timer" in our group and they LOVED it.

We had a fantastic meal at the gaucho in Edinburgh, we had two friends who had travelled from Australia just for the weekend to see the rugby and it was the icing in the cake to have the private dining room to ourselves, it really made it a special evening for all of us. Also Craig our waiter was fantastic, couldn’t have asked for better service.
