Overview

The Merchant Steakhouse is at 56 Ingram Street in the Merchant City, a short walk from the Duke of Wellington statue outside the Gallery of Modern Art. According to its own site it first opened in 2023, and it calls itself Scotland's home of dry-aged steak. The menu is built around dry-aged cuts (the site says up to 80 days) cooked on a Parrilla grill: tomahawk, chateaubriand, porterhouse, rib-eye, fillet and sirloin, plus seafood. The signature dish is executive chef William Lee's Beef Wellington, which takes 24 hours to make and has to be pre-ordered. On Tuesdays the tomahawk is half price, at £75 for two. There is a Sunday roast, a market menu and a children's menu, and the restaurant describes itself as family-friendly. The Dry-Ageing Room is a refurbished private dining space for celebrations. Walk-ins are accepted, but the restaurant recommends booking because it gets very busy. Opening hours are 5pm to 10pm on Mondays and noon to 10pm Tuesday to Sunday.

We visited for the Sunday roast as it came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. The food was delicious, the cheeseburger spring rolls and the Bloody Mary are not to be missed! The wonderful bartender will even make it to a spice level of your choosing. The staff were friendly and inviting. Kavi was our server, he was polite and so attentive. He was very knowledgeable about the whiskey menu and made us feel very welcome. Definitely will not be our last visit!

Joe served us, he was absolutely fabulous at his job. Went through the menu as I hadn’t been here before, although my husband had. Recommended wines and sides to go with our sharing chateaubriand steak. All went fantastic to the dish, and I would highly recommend coming here and having Joe as your server. Fantastic experience and will be back again. Husband took me here for my belated birthday meal

If I could give 6 stars I would. One of the best dinners I’ve ever eaten. Me and my partner went for the Beef Wellington. Before that our starters were fantastic and set us up perfectly for the main event. The Wellington was absolutely incredible. Service wise we had Aidan who was very good at their job, service was quick, efficient and friendly. On a further note I thought the atmosphere was great. Amazing choice in music that wasn’t too loud but perfect for a dinner. We will definitely be back to try their other options. We went for the Wellington as it was an occasion dinner. But the look of their Sunday Roasts made up our minds that we will be back. They also do a mini menu which is very reasonably priced which also looks great.

We visited the Merchant Steakhouse on Saturday night and really enjoyed our visit. We were looked after by Joe who was an excellent host and very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and meat cuts. We thoroughly enjoyed our food, and the service was excellent. The ambiance was great, and the restaurant is very stylish. It's a little pricey but lovely for a treat. Would definitely recommend and will hopefully return next time we are in Glasgow.

Top place for delicious steak in Glasgow! Excellent quality beef and lots of options in terms of cuts, aged cuts and sizes. Great sides as well like the truffle mac and cheese. The restaurant is lovely and staff are all very attentive.
