Food delicious as always. Pre-theatre but it was getting busy. Staff attentive. Only disappointment was we asked for 2 large glasses of wine when we sat down followed by another 2 during the meal and were charged for separate glasses. I would have expected them to suggest we just bought the bottle given there couldn't have been much, if anything, left in it rather than charging for individual glasses - will remember that if I go again.
We visited the Red Onion last week and all enjoyed delicious freshly cooked meals. We had three courses from the pre- theatre menu which was amazing value for money. The staff were very efficient and friendly too. Five of us in our group and each one of of said that we will definitely return here and are recommending to friends already. A great find in Glasgow!
A very relaxed atmosphere but with efficient service. A truly delicious meal although a glass of wine was pricey. Would have been better value to have had a bottle.
Nicely cooked ànd presented food. The service was very quick and the waiters were very courteous I had French onion soup followed by pork then cheese.
Staff were very nice and attentive and food was of great quality and taste and good value ,it my birthday lunch all the more enjoyable.
Food was ok but not great. Rather expensive for what I thought was an average meal. Had heard great things but was quite disappointed. Dessert choice was minimal and so was the portion of vegan choc brownie which was quite dry. Sorry would not recommend.
Very friendly and efficient staff-attentive but not overwhelming. The place has a really nice laid back comfortable ambiance. The Food was lovely. We will definitely be going back.
We did have a lovely lunch today the food was 1st class. The only bad comment I would say was the waitress didn't smile much and was really too quick taking our order twice we had to keep her at the table to finish what we wanted
Pre-theatre menu was excellent value for money and portions were good sized. Staff were very pleasant yet professional. Modern open decor which may not be to everyone's taste.First time visit for us but sure to return!
Fabulous lunch today at Red Onion. As always the food was delicious and the staff professional and attentive. Great atmosphere in the restaurant and the set lunch menu is incredible value. Definitely one of my favourites and would recommend to anyone looking for quality at an affordable price.
"Simple" food, but so well done. Wife hardly ever has steak, but just loved it. Was only planning to have 2 courses, but def having 3! Staff so friendly as well
Amazing options for gluten free and dairy free. I had a full menu to select from. The food was brilliant & the pre theatre deal was excellent value.
Excellent food - the quality is superb. The staff are both friendly and very attentive although the restaurant was as usual busy for early Thursday evening.
Regular customer at the Red Onion and the food never disappoints. Attentive service from the moment you step through the door. Great value for money. Hope to return very soon
Warm friendly reception from waiters, excellent pre theatre menu, amazing food. I especially loved the goats cheese starter and frozen raspberries with hot white chocolate. Mmmm. However toilets could do with revamp.
Very good experience overall!! Easy booking online, menu as expected - varied incl veggie options. Good portions and high quality. Very good value. Super service!
Great meal however we got a seat at the front door which was very drafty, waiter was a bit intrusive and asked at least four times if wanted more drinks
As ever- food was excellent and the staff were lovely. Nice lunch for Mother's Day with a glass of fizz. Very good value. Always reliable.
Staff were attentive, friendly and efficient. Food was good and brilliant gluten free menu; staff seemed well informed on gf and didn't regard as a problem. They wanted table back within 2 hrs but served us well without feeling rushed. Hope to go back sometime.
Excellent Vegan menu which vegetarian daughter loved. On the main set menu, there was something to suit everyone. My steak was excellent, while our other guest enjoyed a very tasty chicken main. Restaurant lovely and light too on a sunny day. Nice ambience.
Always love visiting the Red Onion for a special evening. The vegan options are delicious, even my meat eating friends are envious. Great choice and the food is super yummy! Definitely recommend!
Really excellent meal from the pre-theatre menu: so good (and also convenient for where we were staying) that we booked for the following night too! Nice atmosphere, good service too and value for money.
Quite excellent all round. Good, service, timing, food, ambience, lovely decor. Portion size exact. Would definitely recommend and look forward to our next visit .
Service was excellent and the food was fantastic with generous portion sizes. I contacted the restaurant for a late change to the booking and where more than happy to accommodate
Thought the restaurant looked great. The food was fantastic and the staff were super friendly. Food was served promptly. Without a doubt I'll be back again in the future!
Good service, pleasant atmosphere, excellent food, great value for money. Visited for lunch but would definitely return and sample the delicious range on the dinner menu
Our first visit and we were not disappointed. Food was very very nice. Staff were friendly. We will be back and would not hesitate to recommend Red Onion.
Excellent restaurant. Lovely food, great service, very good value and great wine selection. We come back here time after time. And caters brilliantly for decent sized groups too.
We had a great meal at the Red Onion. On our four day visit this was the best restaurant. Very relaxed, not rushed. Throughly enjoyed our evening.
Food was good but not a vast choice. Wine a little on the expensive side. Service good and friendly. We enjoyed the experience but there are so many equally good restaurants in Glasgow to compete with
It was a pleasant dining experience. The food was very good. The service was reasonable. The wine was very enjoyable and overall we enjoyed ourselves.
Lovely staff, excellent service, good value pre theatre menu and delicious food in city centre location. What more can you ask for! Will definitely be back!
Very friendly staff and good food in a nice setting... Only downfall was having a large wooden pole at my back which made the experience a little uncomfortable during eating but a minor irritant...
First visit to the Red Onion and it did not disappoint. We were greeted with a welcoming smile. The food was excellent, good portion size and full of flavor. The restaurant was busy on the Saturday we attended and the servers were not as attentive which stops us from giving top marks. Would highly recommend.
Another lovely meal at Red Onion. Food was delicious as always. Service was great, served quickly and friendly staff. Managed to book online at short notice. Will be back.
We thoroughly enjoyed a lovely lunch. The food was excellent and beautifully presented. The restaurant was full and customers were being turned away. Good ambience. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Nothing was a bother. Will definitely be back.
The choices were very good and made it hard to choose my meal, the food was good quality and very enjoyable. Would recommend this restaurant for a quality meal.
Had a lovely meal party of 8 and everyone one of us enjoyed the good food excellent service we would certainly return In fact I would go back tomorrow
As ever, exceptionally good value. Good atmosphere & it was nice to meet John Quigley ! The service was a wee bit slower than usual but still a great night.
Really great food, staff and atmosphere. Great vegan menu, and the wine was also good. The service was brilliant too 😊 Will definitely be back 😊
I always love going to Red Onion. Lovely restaurant, nice atmosphere and good food - what more could you ask for? We opted for the pre-theatre (which was still available at 8pm), my friend had the chicken tika and I had the vegetable tika both were very tasty. We following this with chocolate browine (yum!) and a seasonal crumble (double yum!). We shared a bottle of wine and the bill came in very reasonably. The owner/chef walked around chatting to folks which I think is a really nice touch. We are looking forward to our next visit, even more so now that I know there is a vegan menu to work my way through!
Great food and service.. we had the pre-theater menu which is excellent value. The location was handy for us prior to heading to the Hydro. Would definitely go back!
4/5 Good food, good value, friendly staff; lovely surroundings; would go back. Understand vegan menu is particularly good .Plenty of choice and drinks reasonably priced too.
Great value for money - Friday evening set menu £14.95 for 2 courses for items which would have been much more on a la carte. Staff friendly and efficient, food absolutely delicious. Would thoroughly recommend this restaurant.
The red onion restaurant is a must we booked for lunch the service is exceptional the food is amazing such a friendly atmosphere and so reasonably priced we will definitely be returning again soon
Lovely two course lunch and a nice glass of Rose. Loved the Bang Bang Chicken Salad and super fish & chips to follow. Friendly staff and attentive service.
Good food, sevice and excellent value for money. The three course menu is very good. And the gluten free menu has an excellent selection too.
The food was great, atmosphere is nice. The staff are helpful and welcoming. The only downside is the 2hr time restriction on the table. We booked for 5:30, arrived slightly late but called ahead to advise were I was reminded of the table return time. It took 20mins for our food order to be taken, although this was not a problem, it is when you have a table return time. We did finish our meal 10mins prior to the return time, however had I not been reminded of this we would have ordered another bottle of wine with our mains and stayed for coffee but this may have taken an additional 30mins. The frustrating part of this is the restaurant was not busy when we left, there was no need for our table to be returned promptly or for the constant reminder there was a table return time,
Red Onion is a delightful restaurant - very tastefully designed and cozy. The food and service were both first class. My family lay and I were in for the pre-theatre menu which had loads of choice - even for outlet picky teenagers. Keenly priced too.
Lovely setting and very friendly and efficient staff. Ordered off the lunchtime menu - both starters were very nice (pate and tempura haddock). Both mains also tasty but a bit on the large side, felt like I was having to throw food down because of limited time we had for lunch. Other than that, great experience.
