My wife and I had the pre theatre menu (3 courses). We both had French onion soup and the Spanish style pork then my wife had frozen raspberries with white chocolate sauce and I had fruit crumble. All the courses were served promptly and the food was excellent. Pre food the owner had a wander round the restaurant welcoming everybody with some small chat. The servers were all attentive and polite and looked after us very well. A really good experience and we look forward to our next visit when we visit Glasgow.

I have been here many times before and the food and service has always been first class. This is the first time I have been since the end of the pandemic. I may have picked just the wrong night ( Wednesday 17 April 2024) but first impressions were not good. I was given a table for two at the window. My table was unstable and I had to use a folded paper hankie to steady it. These things can happen but when I saw that the customers at the next table had to do the same it concerned me. The service was really slow albeit it was fairly busy but it took ages to clear away our starter plates before our main course arrived. The quality of what was on offer was good but it had the appearance that both main dishes had been left under some sort of heat for a while which dried out the chicken dish. If fairness the ragu for the pork dish was lovely but if you advertise Patatas Bravos I expect a bit more than boiled potatoes in the ragu. Overall, this was not the finest night but I will go back once more to see if this was just a one off. I certainly hope so.

First visit! Food was amazing, staff were attentive, and definitely value for money. If I was being picky, I'd say it could have been a wee bit warmer - the coal fire looks lovely, but by having a table directly in front of it, it keeps the heat from getting out to other diners.

Had a fantastic meal in Red Onion. They have the most amazing Gluten Free menu. It's brilliant to be able to get a 3 course meal with a proper pudding and not just ice cream

I’m a little torn with this as restaurant was lovely and staff were to, maybe too many staff as was approached a couple times for the same thing. Food wise I feel maybe trying too hard the cooking of everything was perfect and lovely but felt the duck spices/sauce didn’t work and the soup was a bit watery. Toilets were a massive let down to the rest of the place

Service was very off hand. It was very cold and draughty. The French onion soup isn't as good as it used to be, the steak frites were accompanied by a dried up over grilled tomato that shouldn't have been served and when we asked for mayonnaise a plastic bottle that needed cleaned was supplied. Not really impressed

We are regular visitors to the Red onion. The food was nice enough, but Staff were not very welcoming on this occasion. Drinks glass was dirty when it arrived at our table and kitchen staff and waiting staff continually accessed the main door throughout our meal. This led to us being cold and not extending our meal.

Arrived about 30 mins before our booking on a wet Monday. Warmly greeted and shown to our seats. Immediately offered a drink and staff were knowledgeable about the bar stock. Great choices for an Itison deal and portions were full size both for starter and main. Food was delicious; well cooked and presented. Staff went out of their way to meet our needs. Thanks for a lovely visit. Be back soon. 🙂🙂🙂🙂
