Glasgow's Premier Steakhouse

A warm welcome from our operations manager

At The Merchant Steakhouse, we believe in bringing you not just a dining experience but a journey through culinary excellence. As the operations manager at The Merchant Steakhouse, I am responsible for welcoming you at the front door, and orchestrating the seamless operations behind the scenes.

 

There is no greater satisfaction than creating an incredible dining experience for our guests. I believe that dining is more than just the food and drinks on offer, although they are important.

 

The difference between a good restaurant and an exceptional restaurant is attention to detail. The details matter: from the temperature of your wine, to the choice and volume of the background music, to the warm welcome you receive upon entering the restaurant.

A cut above the rest

Scotland's Home of Dry-Aged Cuts

Welcome to the Steakhouse that is a cut above the rest. As Scotland's home of Dry-Aged steaks, The Merchant Steakhouse offers everything that you ever wanted from a steakhouse - and then some.

Glasgow's largest
Dry-Ageing Fridge

Dry-ageing is an age-old technique that involves storing beef cuts in a controlled environment for an extended period. During this time, natural enzymes break down the muscle tissues, resulting in a more tender and flavourful steak.

Our Head Chef has considerable experience in preparing, cooking, and presenting the best possible tomahawk and ribeye steaks.

We use our culinary skills and creativity to develop recipes and cooking techniques that elevate our menu, setting us apart from other steakhouses in the area.
