Gaucho Edinburgh

We had dinner at Gaucho Edinburgh to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary, and the experience was absolutely unforgettable. The atmosphere is stunning , very elegant and posh decor, perfect lighting, and a great music selection that really sets the mood. From the moment we arrived, everything felt special. The person who welcomed us and escorted us to our table was extremely polite and professional. They even have a dedicated coat room, where your coat is safely stored and you’re given a tag to collect it when you leave ,a lovely, thoughtful touch. Our waitress, Carla, was simply amazing: warm, friendly, attentive, and very professional. She truly made our evening even more special. My husband surprised me with a second proposal ring, and the restaurant went above and beyond by decorating the plate with “Will you marry me?” written in chocolate , such a beautiful and emotional moment. They also kindly offered us a complimentary dessert and drink, which we really appreciated. The food was of outstanding quality, beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. If you’re planning to celebrate a special occasion, this is the perfect place. We were genuinely impressed and wish we could have a restaurant like this in our city. Highly recommended!

We went for the NYE service They were BUSY! But the service was amazing, the staff were so friendly even with some wait, everything was great! Complimentary drinks and amazing food which came out well presented and tasted great! The scallops were exceptional Would recommend to anyone for a date or a meal out with a friend as there is a special vibe in there where it seems to work in synergy with the food!

Had a spectacular visit to Gaucho for my Birthday with my partner. The service from Viola was phenomenal, absolutely delightful host who paid close attention to us and was very helpful with wine and drink selection and making sure we were well looked after. Bringing me a complementary dram of whisky in place of a dessert (since I didn’t have any more room) was a lovely gesture and well appreciated. The only room for improvement would have been on my steak, which I felt a little bit underwhelming in terms of flavour - I ordered one of the marinated steaks and thought it would be a bit more flavourful. That said, my partner ordered the plain ribeye which was definitely delicious. Thanks to Viola and the rest of the team for a lovely evening.

Food, service and atmosphere were all 1st class. Love the marinated fillet steak and the wine list of endless. We got advice from our server to help navigate it. Worth noting that waiting staff only get 15% of the service charge so have it removed and pay it in cash so they get 100% of it.

Usually one of my favourite steak restaurants, something was lacking this time. The steak just didn't seem as juicy. Apart from that the staff were lovely. We were given our own private dining area. And given wee birthday messages as we were celebrating 3 birthdays at once.
