We booked a table for 5. The food was fantastic as was our service. I cannot fault a single thing and look forward to our next visit.
This was Our first time eating at "The Red Onion", it won't be Our last. The staff were very friendly and the food was superb.
My friends and I had a lovely lunch yesterday at Red Onion. The restaurant looks beautiful with the festive decorations and the food was well presented and tasty. Staff were friendly and helpful. Background music was not intrusive and we could hear ourselves talk. We enjoyed lunch so much, we agreed to book again for our next get together!
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.
Only comment First Class the Best in Glasgow Cannot beat the food & Service and the staff very cheerful and helpful The only place that my wife and myself eat when we visit Glasgow
First visit but won’t be the last-food was wonderful as was the service - staff very attentive fantastic value for money and a great menu something for everyone - fantastic
The food all four of us ordered was excellent. The waiting staff (I think her name was Amy) very attentive without being over intrusive. An enjoyable night.
Never had a bad meal at the Red Onion. Amazing food and staff are excellent. If you have never been you should give it a try.
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.
Excellent and friendly service, delicious food, good value. Five of us met up for lunch and we all agreed we would be back at the first opportunity.
Fab food great service very polite American waiter great value for your money second time I have been will defo be back friendly relaxing restaurant
excellent service. food always a delight . will definitely visit again
Sadly disappointing, ...having booked a table for four, we were squeezed into a table, next to the front door on a cold and windy November night. while tables at the rear and upstairs were empty. The starters were thoroughly enjoyed by all. The vegetables with the duck dishes were bland and the overall meals were small although the duck was delicious. The two persons having the fish goujons thought the fish dry and the overall dish poor. Didn't stay for dessert. Left hungry.
Excellent food and service. The ambience of the restaurants was just right and the roaring fire was very welcome coming in from a cold November day. Will be back.
Nicer than it looks in the photos. Delicious food with polite and helpful service. Service seemed a little slow but much prefer that to being rushed. Would definitely go back
A very good Sunday lunch for four. Good service, lovely food, with varied choice for vegetarian. I enjoyed the avocado salad starter and wild mushroom risotto...both to be recommended. Very reasonably priced.
Delicious food and lovely place to eat. The service was very good. Would definitely go back. Lunch menu very good value. Had the chicken salad and ribeye steak. Both excellent.
Fantastic food. Great service. Brilliant gluten free options. Best restaurant we have been to Glasgow. Would definately recommend for anyone who is Coeliac. We will certainly go back.
This is a lovely restaurant. The choice of food is excellent and tastes delicious. Reasonable priced pre-theatre menu. The service was excellent. Will return again
Food lovely. Don't understand tho why same menu is more expensive at weekends. Service was a little erratic but it was busy. Bread & water at table would be a welcome addition.
We had the pre-theatre menu which was very reasonably priced for two courses. The quantity of food was just right and the quality was superb. Service was attentive and friendly. I thoroughly recommend it.
Excellent service and excellent food. Nice environment and a good situation close to the shops. I would recommend the restaurant to my friends and family.
Excellent meal as always and Theatre meal was very reasonably priced. When in Glasgow will always pay a visit when can. Highly recommend this restaurant to any who visit Glasgow
This is my fifth time going to Red Onion for lunch is the last two months and I love it. The menu changes daily and there is always a friendly warm welcome to this cosy Scottish restaurant.
The food was great. The service efficient and wait staff courteous. Atmosohere cosy. Good choices on pre theatre menu. Would definitely go again. Close for theatre royal.
Fabulous food, fantastic staff and wonderful atmosphere. Super place to eat! Went with friends for lunch and we all had a great time. Value for money!
While always enjoy the set menu at Red Onion, surely it must be time for a change? Very busy and felt slightly short-staffed. Our wine order was forgotten and although we hadn’t complained, they didn’t charge for our desserts in recompense which was a nice gesture.
Nice setting. Great food. Like to have had a choice of table. None offered. Placed at the draughty door when others were free. Still enjoyed it though.
Very pleasant atmosphere: great attention and service by waiting staff. Then there is the food - all of it from the starter to the dessert was one of the best we had ever experienced. Well prepared and presented. The final "icing on the cake" was, of course, the taste experience - wow! We will be coming back and have already recommended the Red Onion to friends and family.
Great food and great service. Excellent selection for gluten free! Can’t fault. Lovely atmosphere and I lived my steak frites and goats cheese starter. Definitely be back.
4 of us dined, great experience. Food and service superb.. Have been before and will definitely go back. Prefer to sit downstairs...
Wonderful...amazing food, lovely atmosphere and excellent value for money. Will definitely return!
Sadly, the experience was not as good as before. The service was excellent, but the soup was thin and the fishcake was far too salty. However, the ambience was as good as ever I'm happy to say.
The food was great & the service excellent. Only thing I would change is that my friend’s vegan menu cost £3 more than my non vegan one, seems unfair!
Food and service fabulous as always! Great value for money with their lunchtime special- two courses for £9.95 and 3 courses for £13.95 and the food is amazing!
Had a lovely pre theatre meal. There was 3 of us each had a different meal and everyone was very happy with theirs . Service was excellent 😀
Most enjoyable mealTrio of Scottish Bon bons as a starter was interesting and very good - 3 different tastes/dishes in one. The main of monkfish was well cooked although perhaps a little spicy for me but that's just personal taste. Really enjoyed the fruit crumble. The house red was most acceptable. Service was efficient and pleasant throughout. All in all, an excellent lunch
Very good choices on lunch menu. Meal and presentation excellent, staff very attentive, overall very pleased. Will most certainly return. Would absolutely recommend to friends.
Great service and food Value for moneyThis is my 4th time dining at the red onion Never been disappointed Lovely cosy decor Would recommend to friends and family x
They were amazing. We were already 15 minutes late due to horrendous traffic and only had 1 hour before our concert started. We mentioned this to them and they made sure everything was timed to perfection. Couldn't have asked for any better. Thank you.
Very very good. Great food - really good menu with lots of choice. Really nice atmosphere with a roaring fire. Staff all very friendly. Would highly recommend.
To be honest I expected a lot better from what i had previously been told about the place. Pretty standard food and a bit bland.
One of my favourite places to eat in Glasgow. Friday night was busy, of course, but things started off well and we ordered from the set menu. Decided on the strip steak which wasn’t really strips and very gristly. No one approached to ask how we were doing this time, and it took a while to get the dessert menu. First time we’ve been disappointed here, so maybe a blip. We love the atmosphere, so hope to be back, nevertheless.
Lovely atmosphere and great choice on the set lunch menu. Beautiful seasonal flowers. Good city centre location and convenient for parking. Will be going again.
Relaxing atmosphere and very efficient service, food was delicious and perfectly balanced portions. The white wine was a bit of a let down though for£20, I expected better. The bee made from the red onion owner was fabulous!
Well worth a visit. Great food and quick service close to City Centre. Set menu offers good choice and great value. We'll be back again I'm sure.
Great restaurant, the food is lovely and very well presented. The staff are friendly and the restaurant has a great ambiance and atmosphere. Foid for all occasions especially date night. The vegan is outstanding!
Took my mum for lunch and we both had different things and everything was delicious
Excellent food and service great value. I’ve eaten in this restaurant many times and the food has never disappointed me. Good value foo although wine is quite expensive.
Food was devine and catered for my gluten free needs with a separate gluten free menu. Pre theatre menu great value. Quick and friendly service. Beautiful, highly recommend.
