Full respect to the chefs and whole team, thank you. Great food was very tasty, appreciate all little details on each plate. Very enjoyed today Christmas lunch. Nice choice of wine too.
From 12pm to 4pm every Saturday, Kyloe invites diners to test their appetite against the grill. For £35 per person, you’re served plate after plate of 120g ribeye steak, golden chips, and a peppercorn sauce so silky it could double as velvet. The rules are simple: finish your plate, order another. No sharing, no wasting, no cheating. Just you, your fork, and the question, how many can you manage? On average, most diners settle comfortably at two plates each, a sweet spot where satisfaction meets sensibility. Two ribeyes, two rounds of chips, two generous pours of peppercorn sauce, and you’re happily full without feeling defeated. The Unlimited Steak Frites is the headline act. But sometimes, the supporting cast steals the spotlight. For us, it was the brûléed cream of sweetcorn. We couldn’t look past it on the menu, and thank goodness we didn’t. Arriving at the table, it’s brûléed right before your eyes, the sugar crust crackling under the flame. The result? A dish that’s both sweet and savoury, creamy and caramelised, indulgent yet delicate. I’ll go on record: bar the steak frites, this was possibly one of the best things I’ve eaten all year. It’s the kind of dish that makes you pause mid-bite, look at your dining companion, and say, “This. This is why we eat out.” The Steak Frites is so worth it and just downright fab. A Saturday ritual worth repeating!
My wife and I had a date night here a couple of months back. I fancied a nice steak and had heard good things about this spot. The venue is within the Rutland Hotel and open entering it feels very classy and modern with a club-like vibe. It is definitely on the high-end date night/special occasion and premium feel. The service was good. We were quickly greeted and we felt welcomed. One waiter came around with the selection of beef on the board and he talked about the provenance, working with respected farms and butchers. The man did stumble when he was describing the meat as I think he had a bit of a mind blank. We had another waiter throughout who was younger but very confident and excellent communicator and willing to have a chat despite the restaurant being so busy. The service speed was reasonable given the circumstances. We even got to choose what knife we wanted to eat our beef with. They had a selection of 4 or 5 which was a nice added touch. The menu includes classic steak cuts, sharing steaks, and “more unusual cuts” chosen for texture and flavour. Non-steak options: shellfish section, seasonal Scottish produce and there are some vegetarian/vegan/gluten-free options. Every Sunday they offer a “table-carved” roast with bottomless trimmings. We opted for the Sirloin Special which was a sharing bone-in dairy cow sirloin which was fattier than your traditional cut of beef. This alone cost us 80 odd pound so we hoping that it was going to be delicious. I was hoping to get the blooming onion as a side but unfortunately their fryer was out of action. Instead for sides we got the maple roasted carrots, beef dripping chips, onion rings and the garlic roasted bone marrow. For sauces for got the chimichurri and the Béarnaise. Our meal was lovely. The meat was tender and cooked just right. The highlight for me was the carrots. Easily the best carrots I’ve ever had. Maybe that’s because they were drowned in maple syrup? The chips and onion rings were great. Although there weren’t many chips. The sauces were great and required for the meat because I felt that the sirloin was lacking a little flavour on its own. My wife’s favourite was the bone marrow. She couldn’t stop digging into that. For dessert we shared the s’mores which is not usually something that I would choose but this was delicious and a great way to end a lovely evening. Overall we had an enjoyable experience. Slightly disappointed that we went with the sirloin. It was nice but I feel we could’ve got something better and more flavourful (e.g. the ribeye). Unfortunately my wallet couldn’t handle regular visits here but I would like to try their Sunday roast.
I spend my life traveling the world and have been fortunate enough to eat at some great places. The food here was very good. The quality of the produce was excellent. The staff were impeccable, and the wine was exceptionally good. Overall a fantastic experience and highly recommend recommended.
Absolutely amazing meal and thoroughly enjoyed all the food. Had the chateaubriand, chicken dish and cauliflower steak. Steak was perfectly cooked and so soft, chicken very tender and surprised by how good the mash was! Staff were all very lovely and welcoming too. It is a bit pricey but I feel worth budgeting in and would definitely come again.
We dined at Kyloe yesterday evening. The food was lovely, service was exceptional. Our order was missed but the team more than made up for this without our asking and gave us a large discount, drinks on the house and were very apologetic for what seemed like a minor inconvenience for us. This sort of service is what makes this restaurant a place I hope to return to. Can't fault the staff I really appreciated the gestures thank you for having us.
We reserved a table under advice of a friend, and we were not disappointed. The staff is very kind and competent. We had beef wellington and steak of the week as main, the meat was really well cooked and matched with the right sauce and sides (no pictures, gone too fast). Very tasty and particular dessert paired with a suggested whiskey.
The atmosphere was great. Location was easily accessible. The gin martini, feta and tomato salad and mushrooms were great. Highly recommend the beef shin Mac and cheese. The steak was undercooked and quite (dare I say) cold. The chive mash was underseasoned and needing salt. Was it a great experience? Sure. Was it a little underwhelming, unfortunately yes. Especially for the price.
Food was AMAZING. One of the best steaks we’ve ever had. We treated ourselves to this amazing meal at the end of our Europe trip and did not regret it. I will be thinking about that steak for a long time and look forward to returning to Scotland one day to have another. Service was great as well. Definitely pricey but zero complaints.
Im glad I experienced the authentic Scottish beef. The place was wonderful. I liked how things were designed from the cow, the leathers, even the menu covers ☺️. The service was nice. We ordered Ribeye and Sirloin at medium well. The first waitress brought wrong order and both were well done and were very dry. The waiter David was so professional resolved it brought the right orders and it was served nicely cut. They didn’t charge us for the steak to compensate for the mistakes. It was nice of them. We enjoyed our night in this elegant restaurant.
