    We dined at Butta Burger on Sat 25/11 which was an over all poor and disappointing experience. Having previously dining here and being blown away many times by service and food, we were excited to return to our favourite burger restaurant in Edinburgh. We ordered a Smokey Q burger, chicken wings and Parmesan fries and overall disappointed with the food quality. The burger was underwhelming in flavour and appearance and expensively priced without any inclusion of salad or sides. The chips were cold and the chicken wings were passable with a poor and thinner coating, different to previous visit. Throughout our meal, it was difficult to get staff attention with no check backs or no questions about how we enjoyed our meal. Having worked in the hospitality industry for many years, I know the check backs are essential to address and rectify any issues at the time. It was disappointing as this was our favourite burger stop in Edinburgh amongst a competitive market but given our experience on Saturday sadly, it is unlikely we will return.

    I am afraid I was underwhelmed by the place, the food and the service. It was all very mediocre and I would not choose to eat here again.

    Food quality is always great here, value isnt so good, i consider it quite expensive for what it is. Service is inconsistent, great sometimes and very poor others. Always an optional service charge on bill which is annoying, its really not justified.

    Good was amazing with a variety of choices. Service was quick and efficient. Only fault I could give is only card payments, however, apart from that the food and atmosphere was unbeatable

    I’d heard a lot about Butta Burger on IG. We arrived for a 12 noon table. The staff seemed a bit taken aback and we had to wait outside for a minute or two . We were shown to a table and it looked as though they’d been working on something prior to opening - but we felt a bit that that had taken priority over being ready to open. We felt a bit in the way. The staff member serving us seemed a bit preoccupied / no personalised service - no “have you been here before” etc. I was a bit disappointed. The burgers were really tasty the surroundings are quite worn / well loved. I think it would be great for a takeaway but not very special for dine in.

    The wings were huge so i definitely underestimated it, the trufle burger was delicious but my sister prefered it so i had to take the kiev burger. I didnt like it and when we were back at the hotel it made my stomach ache, that or it was the two delicious strawberry Shakes you guys served. And the lady that took our order was so beautiful i wish i could get to know her. Ps please get lids with a hole in lol Yours sincerly, Ilyas from the netherlands

    The vegan chicken burgers are not good - I was also disappointed with the chips. Overall it was a massive waste of money for food that I would’ve been better off not eating.

    Service is ok, not very motivated (exception: nice bartender). The burgers are small, buns were a bit dry and floury. I asked for lettuce instead of onions, got charged 50p for that. Extra Sauce costs 2£, find that a bit overboard overall.

    Welcomed, promptly on arrival by friendly staff. Excellent service overall, attentive but not overbearing . Food was great, recommend the Parmesan and Rosemary fries as a side. Note, a burger each and fries to share in more than enough. Make a reservation to ensure you aren’t disappointed

    Great burgers both beef and chicken and good sized portions. Great service. Waiting staff were polite, friendly & efficient. Only negative point id make would be that appropriately sized glasses could be served with bottled beer?we were given pint glasses when the bottle only holds a half pint or just over. Overall very happy with our visit yesterday.

    Food here is pretty good. The truffle chick is pretty nice, large fries were quite generous, staff there is polite and helpful. Was offered some taste test to some of the beers they offer on tap, thats really nice of them. So yeah, overall a pretty nice chill place for burgers.
