Food was very enjoyable although we felt the smoked haddock fish cake was a bit too crispy on the outside and the well done steak we asked for wasn't. Disappointed we had to wait 25 minutes between starter and main. Overall this was disappointing compared to previous visits.
I've been to red onion many times over the years and i have never had a bad experience. Always excellent food and service. A place i continue to recommend
Good quality food and average value for money. Staff friendly. Very busy around 6 o,clock on a Friday and became a bit noisy otherwise a good experience.
Delicious food. Almost definitely the best roast beef dinner I’ve ever had. The bang bang chicken is lovely too. We went for lunch as a family and had a great time.
Had a really lovely graduation dinner with my family. Great value for money with the set menu and everyone really enjoyed their meals! Separate vegan menu was designed similarly to the original and stopped me from feeling left out. Thanks!
Always a good meal at Red Onion. Use it for lunch and good selection on fixed price menu with much wider selection on main so something for everyone.
we had a lovely time at red onion on30th june for daughters birthday dinner, the food was superp, and staff very friendly and helpfull, its so good to know that both vegan and meat eating family can all get a lovely meal ,and its just a 40 min drive away, we will definatley be back, thankyou all, (the mccalls )
First time at the red onion. Food was excellent and delicious. Waitress service very cheery and helpful. Only downside was where we were seated! Upstairs cand gad to squeeze into the seats. It hasn't put me off coming back and I would certainly recommend it to friends. Regards CAthy
Great meal and service. Good choice with 2 menu options. Great value for money. Quality of food was very good. Welcome on arrival very good as was table service throughout.
Excellent food again, lovely surroundings, staff pleasant, another enjoyable visit to the Red Onion. Choice of an a la Carte or set menu for 2 or 3 courses.
Excellent service and a fantastic range of delicious food including vegan and gluten free options! Awesome atmosphere in the restaurant too, we all absolutely loved it!
Place is nice, food was good and staff friendly. I think the kids offering is poor. Even half portions of adult food would be better than cheesy pasta or tomato pasta. U make that at he when there is nothing else, I don't expect that in a restaurant. If this improves I would go back with the family. Great place for adults though.
We really loved our dining experience at Red Onion. The staff were excellent, very attentive but not overly. The food was equally as good, loved the starters, haggis based, and the shin of beef melted in the mouth. And the sweets, to die for ! Made our weekend in Glasgow even more enjoyable, thanks 👍🏻
I would say that we had Good service, the food was fairley decent and the menu had a fair choice. I would say Value for money
good atmosphere , and staff couldn't have been any friendlier or helpful excellent food and good value overall couldn't asked for a better evening for my partner and myself
Lovely pre theatre meal including a free glass of prosecco when you show your theatre ticket. There was a reasonable choice of dishes and service was good.
It is comfortable and so unpretentious. The food was good as always. Just a little disappointed in choices in set lunch menu today, having eaten there a few times previously.
Nice hearty but healthy food but nothing outstanding. The light shades could have been doing with a dust. Food choice for gluten free options with a varied selection.
Food decent as always but a little disappointed with the service. We were sat upstairs and a little forgotten about-no one came up to offer dessert, coffee or even the bill. No apology either. Just unfortunate this time as usually very good.
Fantabulous. The atmosphere and surroundings are sumptuous. The serving staff are highly attentive. The quality and taste of each course was of the highest standards. Portion sizes are extremely generous. Highly recommend.
Great food, great service in nice surroundings. Great value for the lunch menu. This is my second visit in the last month and will definitely be back again.
Great food. Excellent value fixed price menu. A la carte menu has good selection of dishes without being overwhelming. Very good service from friendly staff.
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Red Onion ,we were well looked after and everyone without a doubt had a lovely meal both visually and tastefully and staff were all very professional , also knowing our booking requirements - to have a gluten free menu . It was so nice of John to get the time to come and talk to us and we most certainly will be back again . Thank You all at Red Onion .
Food was exceptional. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Didn't feel rushed like you do at some other place. Ordered pudding but asked for it not to come for 20 minutes and this was no problem at all and came bang on the 20 minute mark. Will definitely back be back.
Great food, atmosphere and service. What more could you ask for when looking for a nice relaxing lunch. It was my mums first visit and she loved it as well. Be back soon!
Great food with a good value pre-theatre menu. Good service with a lovely ambience and my favourite bit was ice cream with salted caramel sauce. Yum.
The pre-theatre menu is very good and provided the food we were looking for at a reasonable price. The ambience is excellent for couples and discerning diners. The staff were particularly pleasant and efficient. The music should be turned off when it is busy as it just is a blue-bottle trapped in a jar but I guess is nice when you can hear it. My male partner could have eaten a little more veg or sauteed potatoes with the fishcake main.
We are over the moon with our meal and experience in red onion. Staff were superb and food was excellent for us veggies. Waiting staff were great and really helpful as we made our veggie choices, thank you for looking after us.
John Qiugley is a culinary genius. The haggis bon bons were possibly the best vegetarian dish I've ever had! The mushroom risotto with rocket and parmesan was perfection....along with a side of wok seared greens. Such a nice meal! The restaurant is beautiful... a cozy fireplace, fantastic artwork... Casual but intelligent and comfortable. I highly recommend Red Onion, and Mr. Quigley's fantastic menu!
We chose Red Onion due to its reputation as good for gluten intolerance. We were not let down. The gluten free menu was fantastic! Both our meals were lovely and I was able to relax knowing that everything on my plate was 100% gluten free.
We had a lovely evening meal with friends in a nice relaxed atmosphere with efficient friendly waiters. I can recommend the sea asks and in is and gunn slow cooked blade of beef which was tender and tasty. The desserts cheesecake and the warm chocolate brownie were divine. I would highly recommend the Red Onion For quality and service.
We had the pre theatre menu which had a varied choice of starters and mains, my wife had the bang bang chicken salad and I had the chicken liver parfait, both were outstanding, especially my red onion marmalade. For mains we had steak frites and lemon and paprika chicken with patatas bravas, took me back to Spain. Unfortunately we had no room for desserts, bargain at £14.50 for 2 courses, will be back.
Ordered the burger... it was so overcooked that I could not eat it. I could not even cut it with a knife. The waitress indicated that the restaurant cooks all the burgers the same way... you cannot choose well done, medium or rare. It seemed that burger was pre-cooked and heated.
I altered the booking twice at very short notice and Red Onion accommodated us brilliantly. The food was amazing and all six of us left completely clean plates! Absolutely love that they have a vegan menu, and a few of my family ordered from it just because it looked so good. The pumpkin ravioli in particular was so nice. We had a great evening!
Delicious. Loved the vegan menu. Pumpkin ravioli and ratatouille were excellent. Very high quality and quite reasonable value. Atmosphere was nice, not crowded on a Thursday night.
Great food at affordable prices and friendly efficient staff. Great ambience with fresh and airy decor vet double storey dining area. Would thoroughly recommend it.
Amazing atmosphere, food was Devine. Wine was perfect. Couldn't fault it. The best vegan menu in Glasgow, and such a wonderful selection o the menu. So nice to have a real choice and not just have to get the one vegan option on a menu.
Lovely 2 course, pre theatre lunch. Food was delicious and fresh. Lovley open atmosphere with a mixture of clientel. Would recommend. We will be back!
Excellent food and service. Reasonable prices too. The four hour braised blade of beef is outstanding, as is the bang bang chicken salad, but everything we tried was very tasty
second time at the red onion fantastic food hospitality second to none reasonably priced will be back in the near future. its a must try
