Delicious food, great atmosphere and friendly service. We went on Christmas Eve and enjoyed 2 courses plus drinks and coffee all at a very reasonable price.
I had a totally delicious chicken and mushroom risotto, and caramel shortcake to take away. Restaurant had lovely Christmas décor, good atmosphere and great service.
Our table upstairs was lovely , our food was delicious all 3 courses! I had the beef which was delicious my husband had the duck he loved it ! Dessert was very nice also. Service very quick and also very friendly . Can’t wait to go back again.
Excellent Christmas dinner for both meat eaters and Vegetarian. Great service, thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Have been several times before - never had a disappointment yet.
A fantastic selection on the menu, everyone’s food was lovely and the a la Carre menu was very reasonably priced. We will definitely visit again!
I booked online for a Christmas lunch, but when arrived were told you have to specifically pre-book the Christmas lunch menu - there was no option / prompt to do this online so a little disappointing not to have the menu we went for. We were seated very promptly and our table was ready when we arrived - however, we were seated in a booth upstairs and the seat was all torn and the foam exposed. It looked like a cheap greasy spoon café! Décor inside was nice apart from this (and the confusing curtains at the entrance as you feel like you are performing a magic act :-)). The starter arrived - my friend ordered goats cheese, and I the pate. Goats cheese was a very small portion (one thin slice) and the pate looked like someone has ran out to a local supermarket. However, it did taste ok. The main dishes were definitely the stars of the show - chicken for my friend and I had the beef which was thoroughly lovely. For dessert we both chose the chocolate brownie - was ok, a fairly average offering. Overall, probably wasn't as nice as we had hoped for.
Been to the red onion lots of times food ad service always excellent,,,presentation is fantastic.,would highly recommend the red onion to anyone,..love the bang bang chicken salad started,,
Nice surroundings with cosy real fire, food fab, great gluten free and vegan menus. Set menus good value for money. Will go back in future and would recommend.
Great food, great service, friendly staff, lovely christmassy surroundings. Out celebrating my mum's birthday, we both thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Would highly recommend. Very convenient being able to book online
As always great food in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. Pre theatre menu very good value for money. I’ll definitely be back.
The meal was fine with my wife’s main of haddock fish cake a real hit —my burger was well just a burger —-not really outstanding but not bad —the crumble we both had for sweet was ok but not fantastic —an acceptable meal but could do better
One our favourite restaurants at all times of the year and particularly at Xmas John and his staff achieve a first class service of food, service and ambiance Not to be missed so highly recommend
Very nice place, excellent service and food with very good Vegan choices. Price was very good also. It was warm and comfortable with clean toilets and nice hand soap.
Great food from varied menu. Well presented. Excellent value for money & lovely atmosphere. Very friendly & efficient service. Will definitely be back soon. Highly recommended.
Red Onion caters For all of us,meat eaters , vegans and children. The staff are lovely and the surroundings are tasteful,today there was a lovely open fire.We'll be back.
Fantastic menu, both a la carte and lunch. Food was excellent, as was the service. French onion soup, blade of beef and chocolate brownie. Was a tough choice but each course was excellent
Booked this for a Christmas meal with my friend but we opted for the normal lunch menu instead of the Christmas one. We both had the French Onion soup and Steak Frites, then fruit crumble and chocolate brownie for dessert. Food was delicious, reasonably priced and all served very quickly too. Will definitely be back.
Once again we had a lovely meal. The service was excellent and the food fantastic. All this for a very reasonable price. What more could anyone ask for.
Food & service are great but menu (pre-theatre) doesn't seem to change that often. Other than that - 5 stars. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
Food was the best I have had in ages and the service was excellent.Had soup for starter and chicken for main course and both were brilliant.
Fabulous. We picked this restaurant specifically because they offer a separate vegan menu. The food was excellent as was the venue, the staff and the general ambience. Definitely recommended - great for everyone and 10 out of 10 for the vegan meal.
A great atmosphere with the Christmas set up along with an exceptionally good value 3 course meal where the food was most lovely. Staff were extremely pleasant and I will most definitely be back :)
Gorgeous restaurant....warm, festive and friendly......food glorious...'last supper' for my Uncle visiting from Australia who wanted 'decent food' Had bang bang chicken - tasty, mushroom risotto - made to perfection then cheesecake, one of the best I've eater...the rest of the party enjoyed scallops, soup, fish and chicken dishes.....loved my new world savignion blanc, great having a set menu at a reasonable price as an ootion.....have visited numerous times before and will continue to do so..... Thank you Red Onion, John Quigley and team....
Amazing food and friendly service. Love the setting and atmosphere too
Brilliant! Such a variety of menus for those with dietary requirements as well as the standard menus. Lunch was great value. Lovely warm friendly atmosphere.
We all had a lovely evening. Fantastic ambience, very festive. Staff were lovely and the service was excellent. Being vegan it was fantastic to have a separate, well thought out menu. Food was delicious. Meat eaters also loved their food. Highly recommend Red Onion.
Great menue for all taste from normal to vegan food staff helpful good environment would go again in fact got in phone for future ude
Our experience here was great, it was a relatively quiet Sunday lunchtime. We were given two menu options. A set menu and the al carte. Plenty of choices on both. Staff were attentive and food was great. Would definitely return.
Difficult to put my finger on it but it was just average and I left feeling underwhelmed. Service was mixed - the male on duty looked as if he didn't want to be there and had zero personality while our waitress was excellent. Food was decent but overpriced esp the starters and a restaurant such as this should not be using paper napkins and laminated menus
An amazing vegan starter and main course. Friendly and attentive staff as always. It would be good if they offered vegan menu to diners rather than assuming they want the main one, some might prefer the choice
The food was wonderful- imaginative menu. The restaurant was extremely busy with Christmas diners - this did not affect the efficiency and professionalism of the waitresses. However, we were given quite a few subtle reminders that our table was needed.
Good atmosphere, good service and food excellent. We have been several times before and never been disappointed. We would thoroughly recommend the Red Onion and will certainly return.
Lovely food and service was good and atmosphere too, great menu for coeliac guest too, will definitely recommend to family and friends and visit again very soon.
Great food, great atmosphere, great service with lots of smiles helped make for a very enjoyable evening. First time I have tried Red Onion for a while but would definitely think of returning
A very enjoyable lunch and I am sure we will back. While there was not a large selection in the lunch menu what there was was very appealing.
Fantastic restaurant. Food and service was great! Couldn’t fault it at all. John came over and had a chat with us despite being quite busy which for me is always nice touch in a restaurant. Fantastic!
Lovely restaurant - relaxed and informal but with food and service usually found in a much more formal setting - a great choice!
Great atmosphere, staff were so kind and attentive, the vegan menu was great! Overall a great experience! Left with intentions of coming back to try more things on the menu
I had the chicken korma but felt the sauce wasn't enough, therefore I didn't finish my rice, drinks service quite slow, but apart from that food fab
Lovely pre theatre meal. Food excellent as usual. Service was not as good . Brought wrong meals and drinks order was wrong too. Sorted out though and would not stop us returning.
Delicious, perfectly cooked food, especially the octopus dish which just melted in the mouth. Lovely wines and their own beer! Service very prompt and efficient. A great experience.
The meal was good but menu was much the same as last year’s . Place looks very tired and could do with refurb. Might change venue for next year’s annual catch-up for me and my cousins.
Excellent fare and service 😄 Great choice for a menu of day in busy city centre. Will certainly return soon. Staff were attentive and knowledgeable.
The service was friendly and efficient. The menu offered good choice. The food (and drink) was very good. Prices were reasonable. The atmosphere was relaxed.
Amazing food and excellent service will certainly be back.we arrived early and we were seated straight away with no bother staff could not have been nicer. Bang bang chicken my favourite
Great food and a nice, relaxed atmosphere. Staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Will definitely be going back - keeping it in mind for next visit from the parents!
Very accommodating for a dairy free diet. Comfortable and cozy surroundings with pleasant waiting staff. Tasty food made with seasonal and local produce. Highly recommend.
Quite nice restaurant, food was nice, not amazing but good nevertheless. Good atmosphere. Service was ok, not great, felt like we were being a nuisance just asking for more drinks. They did it of course just missing the friendliness I find in other places. Don’t think I’ll be a regular but I will be back & would still recommend people to give it a try
Fabulous meal, lovely surroundings and very warm welcome from the Owner Mr Quigley. We will certainly be back again soon and would recommend to our friends.
A great evening meal, although a few odd combos on the vegan menu.
