Alston Bar & Beef

Service was painfully slow. Our food took one hour to arrive. The restaurant was half empty. We ordered the chateaubriand to share. It was good, but not excellent. The portion of chips was tiny. Onion rings and scallops were excellent. The peppercorn sauce was like gravy from cat food.

First time here today. We had lunch and what a lunch. I had the lamb starter and my friend had the Kimchi starter both were sooo good. We both had steaks for our mains and they were cooked to perfection. Both driving so we didn't try any of the alcohol drinks and stuck to soft drinks. There wasn't a choice of Zero beer and they only had one 0.5% beer. I'd recommend a wee selection, some folk can't take even 0.5 % for various reasons. My only slight criticism is that the choice with the steak are mash chips or salad, e chose chips and I would have enjoyed some form of veg there too, even just a tiny side salad. Exceptional food in a beautiful restaurant with great service.

Easiest 5* review I've ever given. Hidden behind an unassuming doorway set in the entrance to Glasgow Central station is this delightful basement restaurant and bar. We had a delicious Sunday Roast today, beautifully cooked beef and associated vegetables. The staff were cheerful and attentive, and the ambience relaxed and friendly. A great place to visit at any time but particularly convenient if you've got a long wait for your train connection!

Great food and atmosphere highly recommended...a wee hidden gem

Excellent Sunday Lunch with great, friendly service. Would recommend it all but the stand out was the beef obviously and the Yorkshire pudding and gravy!! My partner really enjoyed the haggis starter and the sticky toffee pudding was yum. Different setting too, enjoyed being in the restaurant!

Outstanding Sunday Roast. Beef cooked perfectly for me (medium-medium rare) and great that they give you the option of that or well done. Kimchi Fritters to start were light, crispy and delicious. Great wine, tasty Negroni selection and the staff were very good and attentive. Highly recommend and will be back in future.

Great hidden gem located in Glasgow Central Rail Station offering fantastic steaks and a good range of drinks. The rum old fashions and the Corpse Revivers No2 are my go to choices here Parking: There is a very expensive NCP car park located a few streets away or there are on street spaces. Best to let the train take the strain for this one.

Great food from lunch menu.

Had a lovely lunch here on a Thursday in December with my work friend. We both picked from the lunch menu and both had the roast chicken with mash and haggis bon bon. It takes about 20 mins as is cooked fresh but totally worth it - so tasty. Chicken breat comes on the bone. Serve is also great, attentive but not overbearing. It was quietish at lunch with a couple of larger Christmas party tables but atmosphere was still nice.
