Excellent food, super service, lovely location. When something does not reach their restaurant standard there is no fuss and any issue professionally dealt with. A breath of fresh air!
Good atmosphere, good service and good food. Had the Christmas menu with plenty of choice, the only criticism would be the vegetables, they were hard. Everything else was very good.
Great food and great service, will be back. We had the pre theatre menu and for being in the city centre it was good value for the price.
The food was really nice and the set menu was good value. Pate, steak and then chocolate brownie - really tasty. Nice environment, with cosy fire.
Excellent meal and great service , would definately recommend this place. Veggie options are available and the food looked wonderful and tastes great too. The prices were not too bad at all and we had starters and mains for two, with a bottle of wine, and paid just over £60.
Nice atmosphere. Excellent Christmas menu - food was beautifully cooked and presented. Food that should be served hot, always was. Hurray for firm sprouts!! Staff were friendly and helpful.
Superb meal with lovely fresh scottish ingredients. Service great and staff very attentive throughout even though restaurant very busy with Christmas party night. Great atmosphere :-)
A lovely restaurant with a really nice atmosphere. Best to book as it's a busy place. Our food was very tasty, with a good range of options on the menu and we'll definitely be back. A little slow with service if you are sitting up in the mezzanine level but thankfully we weren't in a rush.
The food was absolutely fantastic food, and the staff were attentive. I loved the wide choice of food as there were 4 options for each course on the vegan menu which is hard to find.
First time visiting. Great Service by Saskia served with an amazing lunch. Could not be happier. Would recommend to anyone & will definitely be revisiting soon!
The two course option that we had booked and which was listed on the Facebook page the previous AFTERNOON, was not available so we left! This should have been made clear on their website and FB page.
No complaints. Service was great, food excellent and was Value for money also. I will definitely be back and would recommend to friends and family
great food and service ,lovely waiting staff ,i cannot believe that this restaurant has been open for more than 12 years and we have not visited before now, will definitely return,
Wonderful food & great service. Fantastic gluten free menu which all restaurants should learn from. Inside the restaurant has a cozy feel while also being spacious between tables. Would certainly recommend.
Had the pre-theatre menu, food excellent and good value for the money. Staff very knowledgable and friendly. The Bang Bang Chicken Salad and the RIbeye were amazing. Was recommended the St Mungos Beer and it didn't disappoint.
Excellent food, service and atmosphere, well priced for the quality of food, good to see the chef talking to the customers will be back, highly recommended.
Good food great friendly staff and great atmosphere. My friend order steak and it was cooked to perfection, I ordered a blade of beef and it was very tender.
The food was simply delicious, the service was excellent but not intrusive and we found the restaurant to be smart, clean and relaxing. Lunch menu was varied and affordable - all in all a lovely afternoon.
Great food, lovely atmosphere on a wet and miserable evening and great service...what more do you need to set the night off before an evening at the theatre
Waiting staff were lovely, really nice atmosphere - open fire and cosy booths as well. Food was delicious, especially the blade of beef and duck main !
Great food, great service and great night! We will be back soon and I would highly recommend. Central location in Glasgow and handy for theatres as well.
Food not very interesting. Seating cramped. Service OK. Expensive for not very exciting food. Will not go back. Last visit which was at lunch time was quite different.
Good value food, nice atmosphere. We were seated upstairs which was very warm. The food service was very quick but drinks service a bit slow. Ordered drinks and had to ask for them again and same with settling bill.
Excellent food atmosphere and staff . Roating fire which greets you on a cold day is lovely. Staff are so polite and helpful and food is delicious .
Food was delicious and service was great. Waitress gave us great recommendations obviously knew the menu well. Lovely friendly atmosphere. Would highly recommend a visit.
The food was exceptional and very good value. The pre theatre menu offered variety and the portion sizes were generous too. I will definitely be back soon.
We wanted to treat a very special friend to dinner before she went away. I booked online (very smoorth process and we were greeted warmly on arrival. I've been here a few times and never had a bad experience. Very happy to say that this is still the case. Having all opted for the pre-theatre menu, we had two French onion soups and the soup of the day (Thai Sweet potato & cocount) to start. The French onion was so, so tasty and perfect for a really wintery evening. Mains were Haddock fishcake and two lemon chicken kormas. Again, everything was delicious. So much flavour in the fishcake and the peas sauce and lettuce seemed like a slightly odd accompaniment but was so light, fresh and tasty - perfect compliment. A fruit crumble for dessert and I treated myself to a dessert from the main menu. Devestated that I couldn't finish it! Cheescake with caramelised banana and peanut brittle. Staff were friendly, courteous and gracious. I've previously eaten from their vegan menu and the food has always been beautiful. Can't wait to return!
Nice restaurant, good food, reasonable service. The chef came out to talk to diners and clearly proud of the restaurant. The French onion soup is fabulous.
We made very welcome, even the lighting was adjusted so we could read the menu! We thoroughly enjoyed our meals - one from the pre-theatre menu, the other a la carte. My sea bass was perfectly cooked and worked well with the chorizo salad and hugely generous portion of chips.
Helpful staff, good service, warm welcome, good value. I will score 6 when the pre-theatre menu gets a refresh. But this is a very small issue. Always happy to catch a meal here.
We ate of the pre-theatre menu which has been the same for years and years, thankgoodness as the food was excellant and the serverce quick and friendly.
The food was delicious, the staff were excellent. My only gripe was that the toilets could do with un update. They were clean enough but a bit worn.
Love Glasgow, Love the Red Onion. Visit Glasgow maybe twice a year, always visit the Red Onion for great food, atmosphere... does that make me a regular??!! :)
The Red Onion is our regular choice for a pre theatre meal on the way to the.....theatre.Again we were not disappointed.We always get another good "first impression" .The staff are friendly but not overbearing.the menu is varied but too much choice.The Bang Bang chicken is a delight, either as a starter or main.Good value for money,we'll be back
Very enjoyable meal, food excellent and restaurant comfortable. A busy evening but all the waitresses were friendly and the right level of attentive. I would recommend this restaurant.
First class head chef came to say hello spent time with clients top man food great and great price and waiting staff very pleasant and helpful
You are always guaranteed a good meal at the Red Onion. The atmosphere and the service were good too. I have been several times now and it is consistently good.
Good food in pleasant surroundings and service from very attentive staff what more could you ask for. It was particularly good for vegans with a range of choices not just a grudging take it or leave it plate of vegetables.
Very helpful staff, however the food didn't quite match our expectations. The vegan of the party enjoyed her meal whilst the rest of us had a very small steak frite portion which was really quite chewy, we've had better from a far cheaper bar down the road. We had opted for 2 courses and were tempted by a dessert but instead of this coming from the same menu it came from the full menu which we weren't aware of until we got the bill! Suppose that's how they make their money.
Lovely pre theatre meal as always. Very good french onion soup, with the bread and cheese crouton and even had a hello from chef John Quigley, perfect.
Excellent food - very attentive staff - it was a birthday meal which was made so much more by the wonderful experience - thank you
Had a lovely lunch here with friends. The service was really good and they were very accommodating of the baby with us. Will defiantly be back.
The service was great and the food was delicious. The restaurant was spotlessly clean with an excellent friendly atmosphere. Looking forward to my next visit.
Excellent 2 course lunch. Highly recommended. We both had Bang Bang Chicken Starter then Fish & Chips and Chicken & Mushroom Risotto. Service friendly & efficient.
Made to feel welcome when we arrived as a party of six. Arrived slightly earlier than booking time but was not a problem as table was ready. Waitress was very welcoming and took out jackets and gave us time to choose wine and then took food order. Service was very good and all dishes served from starters, mains and deserts were really good and certainly value for money.
Second visit not a patch on the first had the same starter and main course bang bang chicken looked as though it had been thrown together and the pork myself and my wife had was tough as old boots. Not impressed.
First class service and first class food. Nice surroundings especially the open fire which made the restaurant feel welcoming. Very handy to shopping area generally.
The food is delicious as always and their always able and happy to help with our dietary requirements! I thoroughly recommend!! The food is also incredibly well priced!
Excellent food and service. Menu delightfully Scottish. Chef visit to the table a very nice touch. Have been a few times and can highly recommend.
The staff are very friendly and make you feel welcome. The restaurant is cosy. It's not a vast menu but the food is well cooked and tasty.
