Premium cuts of meat, a cool cellar-like aesthetic and decadent desserts: if you’re not heading to Alston Bar & Beef this Sunday, you’re missing out big time.

Blue back-lit walls and exposed stone give the impression of an icy-cool cavern, though it’s as warm and welcoming as they come, with tiny table lamps dotted around the tables and soft leather banquettes to unwind along.

For just £35, you can indulge in three delicious courses. Start with a Scottish twist on the French onion soup with haggis or cider battered king prawns. Meat options are limited to roast chicken or roast Tweed Valley rump so you know they’ve honed and finessed it into perfection. These are served with all the trimmings - though you need to leave room for the desserts. Try the spiced poached pear trifle or the orange & ginger olive oil cake with almond brittle and coconut ice cream.

    Heard good things about the restaurant, so my wife and I booked for Sunday while in town and we certainly weren't disappointed. It was absolutely fantastic. The service was attentive and I found it refreshing to see somewhere offer local beers (from Drygate) rather than the usual mass produced dross other restaurants serve. We opted for the Sunday fixed menu of French onion & haggis soup, followed by roast tweed valley beef. Both were brilliant & highly recommend.

    Booked at last minute for a pre theatre menu before attending an event. We both opted for rump which was the size and thickness of a fillet, ever so slightly overcooked for medium rare but flavour and texture was still very good. Kind prawn and French onion sour starters also went down well. We split a rum and raisin brown sugar pavlova with caramelised banana. Decent selection of drinks although my first choice was unavailable as they'd ran out of passionfruit. Service was quick and pleasant. Will certainly return (probably on a Thursday to try to sharing Chateaubriand.

    Steak restaurant underneath Central Station, Glasgow. We booked in advance and there was a set menu at a special price along with a regular menu. We had a lovely Malbec along with our steaks. The service was impeccable from arriving to leaving. A hidden gem in the station. Being underground there are no windows but the atmosphere was intimate and busy for a weekday evening.
