Red Onion

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.

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.

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

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

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!

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.

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.

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 .

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...

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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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

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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

The pre theatre menu has made the same for too long, time for a change? Also, renovation needed in the restaurant and toilets. Food still nice.

Excellent service and fantastic food will definitely be ready for my next visit very easy to get parked as multi storey across the road, excellent

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.

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 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,

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.

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.

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

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.

Enjoyed lunch the staff are friendly and the meals are lovely, very comfortable and popular restaurant would recommend a visit, will visit again with friends soon.

4 of us at the red onion, the food was good, great atmosphere and great company what more could you ask for? We will definitely be back again.

While the food and staff were lovely, the dinning experience itself could be improved. The decor is very outdated, the chairs are ripped and the tables could do with being covered with table clothes (or being replaced alltogether, to be honest). The whole atmosphere is not very inviting. We were in and out within an hour, which is a shame as the food per se was really nice!

Great menu, excellent service, would definitely recommend this restaurant. Decor and setting were very pleasant as were the staff. The trio of Scottish bon bons was superb.

Great food, great atmosphere. We had a pre-theatre dinner (although it was post-theatre in our case) and the service was excellent - courteous and efficient. I would definitely visit again.

Pre-theatre deal ..food superb, service really good , beautiful surroundings and great wine. Incredibly good value for high class food. We will definitely be back.

Great pre-theatre menu which is good value for money. Gluten free menu reads like a real menu so our coeliac daughter doesn't feel like a nuisance. All food was delicious. Nice, comfortable environment. Staff are very efficient.

lunch menu had plenty of choice and was fantastic value for money. The food tasted delicious and portions were very generous. Staff were delightful.. One of our table was running 30 minutes late but we were never harassed or made to feel uncomfortable. I would highly recommend restaurant, especially for lunch/pre theatre.

Food was excellent, great atmosphere and the staff were lovely. All around a great night. Only (slight!) issue was despite putting it on my reservation and the restaurant catering very well for coeliacs (one of the reasons we were there), we still had to explain our requirements for our orders and this wasn't then picked up on our dessert order, one of which had to go back for a quick replacement due to a wafer issue. Still would recommend to anyone though, and will very likely be back!

Really good food and great service at great price. Particularly pleased to see gluten and dairy free menus provided, nothing was too much trouble for this team. Will be back soon!

Brilliant food and a great atmosphere. We all had a fantastic night. Excellent choice across the main menu but also a comprehensive vegan menu that allowed 2 of our party to enjoy a wide variety of dishes, rather than the usual stilted offerings. Thanks very much.

Excellent food, service and value. Despite being busy, the staff were welcoming and attentive throughout.The set price menu although not extensive, was varied and the soup was yummy!

really nice food, efficient, attentive staff who made us feel welcome, good value gluten free menus for our daughter without any fuss we will be back again soon

Nostalgia was the driver for the return visit - but that won't happen again. The visit overall was very disappointing and the following will give a flavour of the most unsatisfactory points:- From memory the seats at the window are always cold - and my memory served me well. To order one type of risotto and be presented with something completely different - because "there are too many menus and the waitress got confused" - was not a good start. Then to wait 55 minutes to order and receive a dessert (a mediocre brownie and ice cream) is completely unacceptable. The service provided by 3 members of staff was inadequate - particularly as the restaurant was not busy. We visited (prior to a theatre) as it was a special wedding anniversary - and although adjustments were made to the bill to compensate for the poor service - it did mar what was otherwise a special occasion.
