About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
  • Good for business meals
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.

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.

  • Lunch Set Menu 2/3 Courses £17.95/£19.95

    Multiple dates available
    The first signs of Spring have arrived in full bloom across the country. It is this seasonal shift that has inspired our new set lunch menu, featuring Gaucho classics and spring favourites alike. Crispy prawns with a spicy aji amarillo sauce and pickled onions are the perfect complement to the warming weather before diving into a Gaucho staple rump steak with a generous helping of chips and chimichurri sauce. Or, opt for the pan-fried sea bream with a lively salsa verde and rocket salad before indulging in a sweet Dulce de Leche pancake with a scoop of banana split ice cream. Join us from 12:00 – 16:00 at your favourite Gaucho to explore for yourself. Two courses for just £17.95, or three for £19.95.
  • Private Dining Room

    Multiple dates available
    Our private dining room, located on the right side of the main restaurant, is decorated with a blend of glass and mirror, filled with the best wines Argentina has to offer. The versatility of the private dining room means it is perfect as a temporary board room, for family festivities and special occasions. It is the perfect place to enjoy a perfectly cooked steak. Guest are welcome to order from our a la carte menu Sunday to Thursday, with no requirement to pre-order.

    another 5 star experience at Gaucho. The minute you walk into Gaucho the beautiful aroma hits your nose and your escorted downstairs to a beautiful decorated restaurant. Service was 5 star, very attentive. Food again was 5 star. I can not fault Gaucho. you feel taken care off and never rushed. highly recommend Gaucho.

    Two for dinner, dining on April set menu (3 courses £25) a bargain given the quality of food. Restaurant was busier than we expected for a Monday night, service was slow to get started but excellent when it dud. Really enjoyed our dinner.

    As usual the food and table service was excellent. Only downside this time was a broken coffee machine and some outstanding repairs to the toilet facilities. So ambience a bit down on normal. How they fix this small stuff soon.

    Amazing value from March 2025 Dine Out in Edinburgh menu and great service even though we were not ordering from a la carte. The lift is super handy, accessibility is not an issue despite dining room on lower ground floor.
