El Perro Negro Woodlands — Restaurant in Scotland

What a terrible experience. Table booked for 5pm on a Saturday and we arrive 5 minutes early and told they’re not open yet, so we ask if we can just get a beer and wait but told no, need to wait outside. We should have taken this as a sign of things to come. Once we get in we order pints of pilsner (I think there was only 2 beers on their very limited menu), only to be told they didn’t have any (remember this is 5pm on a Saturday), so we were stuck with an IPA, which none of use really like. Another sign?? We then order the food, cheeseburgers, some wings and fries. The burgers arrive and mine is full of gristly bits. After eating about 3/4’s of it and having 4 bits of gristle, I give up with it. Two of my pals had the same issue as me while my other two pals thought their’s was ok. But apart from the gristle, the burger just wasn’t very nice, it was very bland with an overpowering burger sauce that wasn’t very nice either (tip for the chef, just stick with mayo). So all very disappointing and the staff didn’t really seem that bothered when we told them about the issues. And to top it off, I go to the toilet and the toilet bowl is covered in dried in piss (and remember we’re first in the place on a Saturday night, so the toilets haven’t been cleaned since at least the day before). So do yourself a favour and go to Five Guys instead, as IMO it’s considerably better than here. Or even go to McDonalds, which IMO is still much better than this place. You could even go to Iceland and buy a couple of dozen burgers for about £1, fry some up and stick them on an old stale roll and I reckon it would still be better than this place. So my recommendation for this place is, avoid,...

Want to pre-face this review that the girls at the counter were absolutely lovely. Absolutely nothing wrong with the service or the atmosphere.

However, the food we got was probably the worst burger i’ve ever had. Me and my girlfriend ordered the korean chicken burger, top dog burger, togarashi fries, gochujang chicken wings.

The top dog burger was wayy too rich for my tastes, tbf it’s my fault for ordering this since it was probably the black truffle mayo that caused the burger to have this heavy smell and taste to it.

Korean burger + wings: The gochujang sauce was the worst thing, it was the saltiest sauce i’ve ever tasted. Literally tasted like salt water from the sea, both of us couldn’t finish it cause we were dying of thirst. Would suggest going to a Korean restaurant and trying their Gochujang sauce. The wings were overcooked and dry + batter was too much on both chicken burger and wings

Togarashi fries: The amount of seasoning put on was way too much, we chocked on the spices.

Afterwards we went to Chillies West End next door to get Mango Lassi to get the salt out of our mouths.

And fun fact when we went home, we both had the worst farts we’be ever had. Couldn’t sleep cause of the death farts. I’m 99% sure it was the Gochujang sauce and...

Amazing burgers in the west end!

Top dog burger is really tasty, the patty is cooked to medium well ish, it has really nice caramelised onions with truffle mayo. It is just so tasty. I enjoyed the burger bun as well, it has lots of sesame, which is great. The only downside is that maybe cuz we are all quite hungry, the large size doesn’t feel that big. 9.5/10

Black dog burger is very delicious, the black pudding addition is really nice, it bring a bit of saltiness to the burger. 9/10

Southern fried chicken burger is really nice, big portion. Buffalo burger is nice as well, has lots of slaws, a bit messier to eat.

The buffalo and blue cheese fries, it didn’t have very strong blue cheese flavour not it had a lot of blue cheese on top, it’s mostly the buffalo flavour. 7/10

The togarashi fries are good, the spiciness has a kick to it so avoid this if you can’t handle spicy food. Overall the fries are really good, generous portion and really crispy.

They have an open kitchen, clean minimal decor, nice service. The burgers are a bit pricier compared to other places given that they don’t come with fries, but the flavours are amazing and it’s definitively one of the best burgers I’ve had. They don’t have a lot of seats, highly recommend this place for...
