Join us this December at Gaucho, where we’ll be serving up festive dishes and drinks with an Argentinian twist, perfect for corporate celebrations, Christmas parties and family gatherings!

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.

    I walked in both myself and girlfriend to a very rude reception no hello or greeting for the guy at reception, very rude to myself personally and other customers. Told us we were to wait over and just to ‘find a seat’ and that the bar is closed before you asked he then proceeded to give a fellow customer a mouthful after he nicely asked when his table would be ready. When we eventually got downstairs everyone was welcoming and lovely but it left a sour start to our night when the man was very cheeky from the start . Good food mostly nice staff terrible receptionist

    Food - delicious. Service - fast, friendly and couldn’t fault this. Ambience - would have scored this much higher if we hadn’t felt as though the couples on either side were actually sat on top of us. The couple on one side actually complained loudly and asked to be sat somewhere else but were told this wasn’t possible - this made us feel quite uncomfortable. Tables of four, six and more appeared to have a lot more privacy. Our meal wasn’t cheap so come on Gaucho, lose a couple of covers and let your customers feel a bit less squashed please!

    Ibra and the manager were absolutely fantastic. Adhered to dietry guidelines and anytime we’ve eaten in a gaucho restaurant service and food has been fantastic. I wish I could have gave an extra tip to ibra as service for me goes a long way! Thank you
