It's always wonderful to be offered a vegan menu rather than one or two options. The bang bang avo salad was a great balance of flavour and texture, and the risotto was the only genuinely delicious vegan risotto I've ever eaten. Total bargain too. Will definitely visit again.

Food was amazing. Staff so nice and friendly. Lovely with my kids. The owner/chef was asking everyone if they enjoyed the meal which you don’t see often in restaurants now. Will be back soon.

Love that there is a vegan menu at this restaurant, the team serving us were great but I knocked a point off because they didn't have a plant based milk. The food was delicious and I would strongly recommend

Great food and service to match. We had a pretheatre meal which was served at the right pace. The steak and frites was perfect as ever. I like the fact that you can have a small carafe of wine which is the right size for us.Will be back soon.

We selected the pre theatre menu which had varied options. We were pleased with the standard of food and the service. The biggest let down was the lack of heat at one side of the restaurant. We were initially seated against the large drafty window & then moved to ‘nearer the fire’ which resulted in being seated next to the main door - bbbbrrrr!!! So food & service good but take an extra jumper!!

Lovely set menu. When booking we had mentioned that one of our party was coeliac. The Gluten Free menu is mostly the same as the normal one and was already on the table so we didn’t have to ask for it. Food was tasty. Service excellent.

Been to Red Onion many times. Whether lunch or dinner, the food never disappoints. Good wine selection, very reasonably priced, and convenient servings eg 500ml carafe which you don’t get everywhere. The set lunch menu is stonking good value- proper food in a proper restaurant.

We always have a wonderful time at Red Onion, and our visit in November 2018 was no exception. I have coeliac disease, and it's so lovely to have a place we can go for delicious food, where I can be 100% sure that I will have no ill-effects afterwards! The food is very reasonably priced, especially considering the quality and quantity you get. The service is always top-knotch. You have no doubt that someone will be around if you need something, but you don't have people hovering over you either. And everything is delivered with a smile! One of my favourite restaurants in Glasgow - definitely worth a visit!

We had an excellent meal at Red Onion and would have no hesitation to recommend this. Food was amazing, staff are friendly and helpful and the decor was nice. One of us was a veggie and the other needed a gluten free option and they have menus for both which makes for a great dining experience so lots of choice. I can't wait to go back again.

Had a lovely lunch, even though the wrong meal was originally brought to our table the error was quickly resolved. Warm and welcoming staff, as always. The warmth of the fire quickly cheered us up on an otherwise cold and wet day. Hopefully I will return soon.
