We absolutely LOVED Highlands! My best friend and I recently returned from a trip to Scotland and were craving more of the culture in NYC. When we found this restaurant we were so excited to try it. It did not disappoint! We had the beef Wellington for entrees which were delicious! For starters we had Blue Crab and Prawn Toast and the Scotch Egg. Both were phenomenal. The service was also great! And the atmosphere was amazing, we felt like we were back in the Highlands. Will definitely come back :)

The restaurant is aesthetically lovely but the food was a slight miss. The Pork Belly and Beef Wellington were drowned in a heavy sauce masking the flavors but the Sunday roast and Scotch Egg were good. If I was there for drinks, I feel the experience would have been night and day. They do have a great list of Scotch though.

Anniversary dinner...extremely loud and hard to have a conversation. We came here last year and had a much better experience. The food and drinks were stellar, but our server wasn’t attentive and seemed to brush us off.

Great ambiance, great food, great service. I was disappointed that they were out of the 2 Scottish beers on the menu (the primary reason I came). While I will definitely go back, it seems odd that a place that prides and promotes itself so much as a Scottish gastropub would allow the Scottish tap to run dry.

Very popular place. Welcoming interior and happily we sat in adjacent room away from the busy bar. Had 2 krankie (sp?) drinks which were delicious. Scotch eggs were great as was the haggis for appetizers. We all 4 had the beef Wellington and loved every tender bite! Would have liked to have a veggie included on the plate besides just potatoes. Waiter was fine but a little unengaged. Overall, it was a good experience and we will definitely be back.

The restaurant is located near the metro so it’s really convenient to find the place. Their service is not so efficient but staffs are all helpful and passionate. Foods are overall good, the crab is delicious, Wellington beef is a little salty but the smell of butter is really good and my fav is the chocolate dessert. It’s not so sweet and suitable for people who don’t have a sweet tooth.

The beef Wellington was good, as was The Godfather cocktail. Everything else was sub-par. We also ordered the pork belly and burrata appetizers, the potatoes and asparagus sides, and the sazerac, catholic guilt, and krankie cocktails - all nothing special. We also felt the service was off. If you go, the beef Wellington won’t disappoint, and stick to the scotch menu.

We were here in Friday night meeting a large group. I had a reservation for two but the group organizer did not make a reservation. They had sat 8 and then managed to seat 9 of us on my reservation for two. The waiter was a saint. The food was a good value as well and also very good.

Wasn't sure what to expect, other than a West Village version of "Scottish cuisine" and single malts. But it was great. Service was friendly and informal but also competent and attentive. Pork belly pate, scotch egg, haggis -- all were delicious. Incredible single malt collection and themed tasting flights. Totally enjoyable.

Really enjoyed the experience. The music was a reasonable volume, the place is on a beautiful street, and the restaurant was cozy and well kept. The wait staff were phenomenal and the food was unique. I went for a Sunday brunch at 11:45am with one other person and we were so pleased. Highly recommended.

Visiting from Boston and picked Highlands on the good reviews, the ability to make a reservation for 6, location, and my love of Scotland. We all LOVED the food, especially the mushroom and crab toasts, and the beef Wellington. The sticky toffee dessert was also great. Loved how it was decorated inside too. We’re not in NYC often but glad we found this place for a Saturday night!

Scotch egg and beef wellington were amazing, best food we ate in New York! There was a problem with the order machine so our dessert order was accidentally missed, but they took the drinks off the bill as a way of an apology. Servers were very friendly, and orders taken and food brought quickly. Would highly recommend Highlands

I had the chicken with. asparagus and artichoke hearts. Chicken is delicious when cooked to perfection and it was. There was a buttery sauce for the vegetables which was excellent. In our group of four one had trout and the other had beef Wellington. No complaints. This was a reunion of old friends and the low noise level made it easy for visiting. This was my first time to eat Scotch eggs and they were nothing special.

We went for brunch and used a $39 brunch voucher. The ambiance was intimate. I’m not sure if the side with the bar was reserved for a party, but they crammed everyone in a small dinning area. So close you can hear the many conversations going on around you. Not that it mattered because the waitress is on point, friendly and made sure we got our worth in unlimited drinks. They also allow you to switch between a variety of strong drinks. The lamb burger was delicious and the dipping sauce made it even better. I would definitely recommend this place.

I’ve been here before and I like it for dinner but the brunch was disappointing. Food was way too salty. I also couldn’t get the Internet to work which annoyed me. The place was rather empty for the entire time we were there so I guess it’s not that popular for brunch. Prices are high.
