Friendly welcoming relaxed atmosphere and great food which is superb value for money
Great lunch on the set menu - 2 courses for £10.95. Soup of the day for starter then the chicken paprika was very tasty, and others had bang bang chicken and then cod for main which was highly rated as well. Brilliant value, great food and presentation and lovely service. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Will be back soon!
Lovely Saturday night meal. The service and waiting staff were excellent. I ordered from the vegan menu and my partner from the regular menu. Starters, mains and desserts were delicious. Thank you!
really nice restaurant with excellent vegan option and food was served really quickly. Very reasonable priced as well. Just off Sauchiehall street so ideal location as well.
Excellent food, nice wine, friendly staff and great service. Various menus cater for vegans and dairy free customers. Would definitely recommend this restaurant and would go back there again.
Food was amazing. My partner is gluten free and there was a great choice for her. Will go back again I the future. Great value also
We loved food and ale whilst celebrating friend's birthday. Would have been 5* if staff had given more details on food combinations and sommelier tips. Would definitely return though. Janice
As always utterly fantastic food and service again for our anniversary. Fantastic place to eat. The grilled harissa octopus start is a must try! If you haven't been then you really should try it.
Food was good, portions a little unrefined. Service was middling, with several minutes of attention seeking required before we were able to order coffee and again when we were looking for the bill. Place could do with a deep clean (lots of dusty light fittings and fake flowers) and litter round the bar. Decent value for money < £50 (inc 10%+ tip for two courses, one glass wine & 2 coffees)
Great friendly staff. Great food. Overall great lunch experience. Nice warm friendly restaurant with lots of room not crammed in like some places. Worth a visit
Red onion is by far the best restaurant in Glasgow. The food is amazing and so much choice on the menu. The staff are very attentive and friendly. I will be back and would definitely recommend it.
Excellent all round ..... very friendly, efficient service, nice atmosphere and great food. Varied menu and wine list. Would recommend the monkfish tail on ragout.
Good city centre location restaurant with neat atmosphere. The set lunch menu provided a good and interesting range of tasty food choices. Excellent service .
Good food and atmosphere. We had a lovely meal. The service was great too. I just wished that the vegan menu changed from time to time.
Service was exceptional and specific requests were dealt with easily and with no fuss. The food was wonderful and great value for money. 2 of the 3 diners hadn't visited Red Onion before and were really impressed.
Fantastic pre theatre meal - 2 courses for around £15. Beautiful food, friendly helpful staff and lovely surroundings. The Red Onion is always spot on. Gluten free options always brilliant. Love it and will keep returning.
Have always wanted to go to the red onion and wasn’t disappointed. Both the food and service was very good and good value for money.
Warm cozy vibe, good service and great quality food and consistent as always, my go to place in Glasgow to take friends from out of town
Great food with good variety on the menu ( we chose pre- theatre). Staff were friendly and attentive and served our food and drinks promptly. We will definitely be back.
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Red Onion yesterday evening. The service was excellent, and all the staff were very friendly and seemed to be very happy to be working there. The atmosphere was great fun. The food was very good, and very good value for the price, plus the wine was excellent. I can certainly recommend Red Onion, and hope to be back soon.
Fantastic food with seperate gluten free menu. Great choice and good value for money. Good customer service and environment cosy, comfortable and enjoyable. Definitely recommend.
Really friendly and good food. Not a “fancy” or too sophisticated space but It’s always what it’s in the plate that makes the difference in a dining experience, and food was absolutely spot on!
Lovely place. Great staff and amazing food catering for meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans in our group. Thank you - we will return soon hopefully
Always a good, fast and friendly service. The goats cheese starter is a particular favourite. Prices are very reasonable for city centre and plenty of on-street parking.
We had a nice meal on Valentines night but we’re restricted to the set Valentines menu. I had pate, sirloin and apple crumble all of which were nice but not particularly special. My husband had vegetable soup, sea bass and crumble. The soup and bread portion was fairly small and the sea bass was extremely small in comparison as it was one fillet of fish, a small potato rosti and a small salad. It certainly wasn’t enough to feed a 6’ 2” man and was significantly less food than the steak meal which was disappointing. I can’t help but feel we paid a lot more for a lot less because it was Valentines. The service was lovely but we left feeling a little disappointed. We’d give it another chance on a normal night.
Great food and service. We were having a pre theatre meal and the staff made sure we were served quickly and efficiently. Would definitely return and recommend.
Should have specified we didn't want a table near the door, was a bit draughty. Was looking forward to haddock risotto ,but only mushroom on the menu , so I suppose I was disappointed from the outset. Skinny chips have replaced the lovely Thick hand cut chips I remember eating here. The fish cake I ordered was nice as was the wine. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his steak .
Went for a lovely valentines meal. The food was amazing and the service was quick and attentive. Definitely be back, but book to avoid disappointment as we seen lots of couples being turned away
Lovely food and service excellent. Great location in the heart of Glasgow city. Ambience of the restaurant is lovely and cosy. Staff attentive. Toilets could do with a little upgrading.
The service was very good with friendly attentive staff. The food was great and excellent value for money for the pre theatre menu. We will be back.
Can't say much more than nice food, varied menu, good service, nice , relaxed venue . What more could you want - oh and good wine list too. All at good prices . Thoroughly enjoyed our lunch .
Great food, caters for dairy free, gluten free and has a vegan tasting menu. Recommend the Shetland squid. Good location and nice look and feel :)
Service was good quick but not rushed they let you decide the pace We had the theatre menu which had a good choice and reasonably priced. We left there relaxed ready to enjoy show.
the atmosphere was very friendly and cosy especially on a cold evening. the menu had a good selection of dishes. The only small issue there was not a great selection of dessert wines
As always, the food and service were excellent. Great value lunch menu which has a good range of dishes. Staff are always welcoming and service is professional. Red Onion is always a special experience - but without a big price-tag. One of my favourite restaurants in Glasgow.
Visited Red Onion for first time to celebrate my son's birthday. The 4 of us enjoyed our starters and the main courses were delicious. The service was very good and we all had a super evening.
Have been here on several occasions and the service is very good. The food is superb, always to a high standard and so tasty. Highly recommend it.
We booked the Red Onion with the sole intention of having the tasing menu. When we arrived we were told we could not have this as we had not pre booked it. There was nothing on the website to state this. We were very disappointed. Ordered from the main menu and it was lovely. Please state on website must pre order tasing menu. Staff were very helpful.
Nice enough food, but... the place is a bit worn. The menu numbers, on multiple bits of A4 paper, was frustrating. Kitchen Staff using the customer toilets with cloths in hand is not appropriate. Could do with a general polish up on standards.
Excellent food and service. Good value for money and quality. Wide ranging gluten free menu, as good as the normal menu. Brilliant to have a family run restaurant at affordable prices
Excellent food, had been highly recommended for gluten free food.
The food was excellent (great vegan menu), the staff wss friendly, and the armosphere was good (you could actually talk). A little dear on the price but totally worth it. Recommended!
Went on a Thursday night with some work colleagues. The restaurant was busy but the food and service were good. The food was served quickly.
Nice restaurant-however bit chilly need to improve heating temperature when door opens temperature drops log fire nice effect but doesn’t heat the room - but food and service good😋
Brilliant vegan options. Had the set began menu and can't recommend it highly enough. Staff very knowledgeable.
Food and service excellent. A drink arrived that wasn’t correct, was swapped and not charged which was very nice of them. Will definitely be back
Fab food, the pre-theatre menu is a must and great value ! The staff are very welcoming and friendly. Would totally recommend that you give it a try!
Busy for a Monday night, but not full or crowded. Relaxed atmosphere. Waitress was very helpful and not intrusive. The waiter was a little bit more full on, and if he was serving it felt a bit rushed. Beautiful food, lovely presentation.
This was our first visit to this restaurant and we were delighted with the food, service and value offered. The decor and ambiance were also pleasing. We shall definitely be back!
Food very very good. And very lovely staff . Always a treat to come for a meal when in Glasgow. It is the first place I try .
