Just a short stroll from Waverley Station and steps from St. Andrew Square, Gaucho Edinburgh is our first restaurant in Scotland, bringing the finest free-range, grass-fed Aberdeen Angus beef from Argentina to the heart of the city.

Along with big, bold Latin flavours, we offer a premium wine list that complements every dish. Step inside this sleek, modern glass building and you’ll be greeted by stylish interiors, featuring textures and tones inspired by the rich landscapes of Argentina.

We proudly celebrate Scottish produce, working with Campbell’s Meats, the world-renowned IJ Mellis cheesemonger and Mark Murphy fruit and vegetables. Of course, we have a cocktail using Irn Bru and are pleased to serve Stewart’s Craft Lager, brewed out of Loanhead.

    L'esperienza non è stata male, ma poteva andare molto meglio. La location era carina, ma ci hanno parcheggiato in un tavolo per due vicino alla cucina e sotto un faro di luce fastidioso, nonostante avessimo prenotato con largo anticipo. Il personale davvero molto cortese e preparato, e abbiamo apprezzato la pazienza per non capire la lingua diversa. Abbiamo dovuto aspettare più di mezz'ora per una porzione di carne e un contorno, tuttavia ci è stata portata una porzione di patatine per l'inconveniente (almeno credo). Il filetto era davvero molto buono e tenero, tuttavia non hanno rispettato la cottura richiesta (media) perché superficialmente era parzialmente bruciato. Inoltre, il contorno di "teneri" broccoli grigliati corrispondeva ad un piattino con 5 rametti di verdura totalmente crudi. Alla fine, la ragazza che ci aveva accompagnato al tavolo ci ha detto che potevamo chiedere di cambiare il cibo, ma non lo abbiamo fatto per non aspettare ulteriormente per mangiare. Ci è dispiaciuto molto perché in realtà dalle nostre parti si mangia bene, speriamo in esperienze migliori.
