First time in the restaurant. Lovely decor and atmosphere. Food was good. Asked for medium, next time we’ll probably go for medium rare. Steak was still very tasty as were all the sides. 1/2 lobster was small for the price but again, very tasty.
Excellent, helpful service from our server Craig.
Will definitely be back and looking forward to trying the Sunday a roast.

Nice touch when Craig brought us complimentary sweet to acknowledge our wedding anniversary.

Lovely food - wine a little overpriced.

Excellent meal and surroundings. Will definitely return.

Gorgeous decor, great balance of relaxed/professional. Excellent waiter Craig who took us through the menu, explaining everything really well and made some excellent recommendations. Food was sooo good. Lovely touch, the petit fours for our anniversary.
Would highly recommend, we will be back

Excellent cocktail. I liked that the wine could be bought in 500mls carafes. Steak was delicious.

First time at this restaurant, loved it. Came with an itison voucher, accepted without question, treated like everyone else of course as you’d expect.
Shared a sirloin steak and a bottle of red wine. Lovely.

Food was excellent
As was the service
Hope to return soon

Top quality meat, best steak ever according to our 7yo!
Atmosphere as good as you'd expect in lockdown

We went for a Sunday roast and were not disappointed. It was actually the best roast we have ever had! So tasty and cooked to perfection! Amazing service as always. Thanks guys 👍🏼

Great steak, super service, a bit dark downstairs.

I could not say anything bad about this restaurant everything from start to finish was perfect

From start to finish was treated like royalty the waitress we had was very good and helped us choose from the menu and was extremely fast with the service 👍

Outstanding from start to finish, was running late to the table had phoned in advance to let them know. Was told that they would honour the 1 and a half hour time slot which was fantastic. Service was outstanding never rushed from start to finish, nice touches of knowledge from our server recommending side dishes to go with our food. Steak was cooked to perfection. Nothing was to much of a hassle and also checked in at the right times to see how we were getting on. Would definitely recommend gaucho to anyone and everyone for great quality food and a brilliant atmosphere. Thanks again for a lovely night.

Not great service. Waited over an hour for food and the excuses for why people where served
Before us where poor. Just admit you forgot our order next time.

Excellent service, they took account of my allergies and made me feel very reassured.
The food was magnificent, we are looking forward to our next visit.

Best steak ever. Great service. We had an Itison voucher but still choices. Terrific service! Cant wait to go back

We recently celebrated our anniversary and the staff made it a experience to remember. The food and ambiance was fantastic, we will most definitely be back ❤️❤️❤️

Great last minute visit to Gaucho, Edinburgh. Craig was excellent and was very knowledgeable about the menu and wine options.

Fantastic steaks, excellent attentive service and an extensive wine list, make sure you try the cocktails

Having visited Gaucho many times previously, I had no idea of how awful this night would be.
Being in a basement, it was obvious that there was no proper ventilation & it was boiling hot. The 1st table we were shown was surrounded by other tables, so we refused & chose a table in a corner. Tables were not at least 1 metre apart, as people were sitting almost shoulder to shoulder with the table behind. No screens between tables to reduce spread of covid.
We were not offered any hand sanitizer, but we had brought our own. There was no obvious signage showing a one way system, no monitoring of people using the toilets. Our waiter told us we could not have the early evening menu which finished at 7pm, although our table was booked for 6.30pm. He then said we could but I had to press the point. He wouldn't touch the water glasses on the table, which was fine, but then brought us cutlery that his hands had been all over! Usually bread is brought to the table, but we had to be asked. Our waiter had a beard, which means his mask cannot properly fit close enough to prevent particles escaping. This is why surgeons & doctors in hospital don't have beards, as they are medically unhygienic.
We asked for our steaks to be medium, but 1 steak was unevenly cooked being almost raw at one end and well done at the other. The chimmichirro sauce was awful cheap olive oil, so greasy it formed a thick film in the mouth. It was completely tasteless. When a man at the next table sneezed violently twice into his hands and did not sanitize, it was time for us to go. We complained about the unsafe environment & the food, but it fell on deaf ears. The manager was abrupt, rude and dismissive. He said as a gesture he had taken off the service charge, which everyone knows is discretionary & we weren't going to pay anyway & he reluctantly deducted £2.50 each from the bill. He had no idea we were regular customers, but we won't be back. We will take our business elsewhere.

The restaurant is beautiful, the service from the waitress was excellent and very attentive. We both had ribeye steaks and after tasting the real thing in Buenos Aires in March this year we were really looking forward to reliving our experience. The steaks were nice but not on a par with the steaks we had in Buenos Aires.

The service here was really great and so was the overall experience. Incredible food and really good value for money. Highly highly recommend !!!

I felt it was a bit overpriced, food was delicious but I feel £45 for steak mushroom and chips with basic presentation is a little on the high side.

Fantastic food with exceptional service

Amazing customer service and will
Be returning again

Craig is a credit to Gaucho.
Couldn't be more helpful and offered advice and recommendations on what to eat when we told him what we were looking at. A very pleasant dining experience, although quieter this time as there was no ambient music.

We were super excited to try the Sunday Roast, and so we arrived early and had some drinks in the bar as a treat. Unfortunately when my food arrived the potatoes were rock hard. I sent them back but it was ten minutes in the new potatoes, so my husband finished his meal before they arrived! The staff were wonderful though, and the unlimited Yorkshire’s were great, but I spent most of my time sitting staring at my food waiting for half of it to arrive than I did eating it, then ate it alone eventually! We are big fans of Gaucho. We’ve been countless times and to other branches around the world, so we will be back to try the Sunday Roast again in the hope that this was just bad luck!

We have had to send an email to the restaurant as it’s was not a good experience at all .. we were at the restaurant 4 weeks ago and it was great ..

Best steak I can remember having. Virus precautions seemed comprehensive but not intrusive.

Just amazing. Food was unreal and the service was great.

Had the Chateaubriand, was nice but a bit too charcoal like around the outside for myself. The chips were massively over salted which ruined the meal for myself. Shrimp starter wasn’t great as by the time the heads and tails came off, there was barely any shrimp left too eat.

An outstanding meal overall. The waiter was so lovely and made us feel so comfortable; offering to read us the menu in detail and very attentive to our needs. The food was incredible, the best steaks myself and my boyfriend have ever eaten. The ambience was lovely, calm and luxurious. We will definitely return.

Fantastic staff and exceptional food. Can’t wait to be back

Great food. The steak was cooked to perfection, so full of flavour. Can’t wait to return.

Food was excellent and cocktails were just as delicious. Service was good and everything was very clean and safe from a covid perspective.

Service was fantastic from Craig..will definetly be back.

Brilliant ambiance and incredible food. Well catered for social distancing measures, it’s definitely a “must go” if you are in Edinburgh.

Service was excellent. As a larger party we were placed in the dining room which suited us. Food was very nice. Main draw back was the cost of drinks (having eaten in a number of similar establishments, Gaucho's was a little pricier). That being said, it wouldn't put me off re-visiting.

Amazing service, went for drink for my birthday. Hosts were very welcoming and friendly. Delicious cocktails

Thoroughly enjoyed our first visit. Will definitely be back.
