Reviews Summary

Diners rave about The Spanish Butcher for its outstanding Galician beef and exceptional service, often calling the steak the best they've ever eaten. The romantic ambiance is perfect for special occasions, though some find the prices steep and the restaurant dimly lit. While most food experiences are lauded, a few reviews mention minor issues like overcooking or small portion sizes for certain items.

"We had such a wonderful time here. We ordered the share platter for two to start and everything was great but the stars of the show were the most incredible olives. Then we had Galician steak and the hake. The food was truly outstanding, great service and a bustling atmosphere."

Lala Lendo

"A highly recommended restaurant in Glasgow City Centre. Food is outstanding, melts in the mouth and the best steak I’ve ever eaten. Gabriel was the perfect waiter, very professional, explained the menu with a deep knowledge of every course. The Chefs I can’t praise enough! Food was outstanding. The restaurant surroundings were spot on giving a very pleasant atmosphere. Ideal for that very special occasion or you just want to treat yourself. Thank you we will be back."

Vince Creaney

"We visited the Spanish Butcher for a birthday meal. It was a 215pm booking and the restaurant was pretty empty.
The staff were ok, but setting the standards low but when we got seated the chap was keen to walk away and we just about got drinks from him.
He did come back with the drinks pretty quick but rushed off right away.

Starters we got prawns and then scallops. Both dishes were nice.

For mains we got the fish and I got gelecian fillet Med rare. The fish was nice and best part no bones. The steak was pretty decent for the price. It was seared very very nice.

As it was my birthday meal the restaurant did give a card. Nice touch.

If your reading this far your see why I dropped 2 stars on food.
For the price the prawns was a good size but the scallops were really small.

I should drop 2 stars we had a stone in the lentils and typically I ended up crunching down and chipped a filling.
I did show the staff they said sorry and gave us a free dessert. Not 2 but one.

Drinks was a reason I added a food star as they were really reasonable in price. Not a typical rip off with restaurants these days

I’m not sure I would return. But would say this place is worth a shot"

After opening the Butchershop on Sauchiehall St, which proclaims Scottish beef and produce, Rusk & Rusk touched down in the Merchant City to do the same for Spain. A large, dramatically dark brasserie divided into intimate chambers and with seats at the bar, this paean to all things Iberian is big on steak and hams (and a whole roast suckling pig you can pre-order), but there’s lots of non-meat choices. Great Spanish wine list by bottle and glass, as you’d expect.

Top 10 - Glasgow's Best Steakhouse

Sometimes you need to take your lust for meat to excess and this sexy-as-hell, low-lit space on Miller Street is the place to do it. The expertly-curated steak line-up showcases their prized Galician beef which is imported directly from Northern Spain. 12-14 year old Galician blond cattle provide this highly sought-after beef, which is then dry-aged for a minimum of 35 days – so in simplified steak-speak, it’s fucking awesome.

The Spanish Butcher is one of my favourites for bite to eat for lunch. It’s located on Miller Street but on entering, you instantly feel like you have been transported to a bustling restaurant in Madrid. The vibe is electric but cosy and the food is too tasty for words my favourite is the roast rack of lamb.
