About Red Onion

A cosy mix of rustic and modern in the middle of Glasgow, with a fire lit on colder days that's genuinely soothing to sit beside — handy when you're waiting out a wobble. The kitchen does modern Scottish properly: scallops and chorizo crisps that melt, duck with a cream sauce families still talk about, haddock and chips, a vegetarian risotto, and a vanilla cheesecake people rave about. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access, vegan choices, and a separate gluten-free menu that regulars with coeliac partners rely on. Staff are consistently warm and attentive, and long-standing families say they're "always made welcome". Two honest notes: it fills up and gets loud in the evenings, especially around party season, and while most leave full and happy, a few have found dishes merely fine for the price. Worth booking.
