Best restaurant in Glasgow hands down. My partner and I are here at least once a month. The food is incredible, the atmosphere is intimate and the music is always on point. The Bukowski theme only adds to the feel (even though he’d probably have avoided it like the plague). Never had a bad experience with this place.

Always enjoy coming to Chinaskis, their own IPA & Lager on tap is decent. My only criticism is that there are some fairly hazardous lights in the beer garden out back. I hit my head pretty hard on one of them, and minutes later saw another patron do the same thing. We were both caught completely unaware, in much the same way as the EU was with Russia's Special Military Operation into Ukraine.

Had a few drinks and spent a lot of money 22/4/23. Staff very good and sufficient but somewhat...aloof, like no one knew anything about drinks apart from them. This sounds like the above review about the soda water arrogance. Despite spending at least £150, asked to move from our table in an almost entirely empty bar because someone else had booked that table for 2. Mental. It will be a while til we're back.

It's more expensive than what is advertised online - they have obviously raised prices with inflation and not updated the website yet. So not exactly as cheap as it seems - some 'large plates' quite small for what you pay. Pizza was okay. Will go back for drinks, not food.

OK, if you’re on the way to somewhere else I guess…stopped in for a couple of quick drinks, which were OK, but not what you’d call ‘cheap’. Taking into account it IS a small bar, it seemed really cramped and the seating not particularly comfy…there wasn’t a lot of folk in when we visited either. The only loo working was the single PRM one on the ground floor, so not great when you need to use the ‘facilities’ either…

It's a good bar, good drinks. The bartender was spraying his friend with soda water and it hit my mate. He didn't apologise, he just replied "it's just soda water". The staff seemed a lot more interested in talking to their mates than serving anyone. Really nice place, just maybe don't stand at the bar too long...

COOL BAR. If you’re venturing to the West End from central then pop in here for one. Chilled bar area and nice beer garden. Staff could have maybe been a bit more attentive and less on their phones (it was quiet when I went in but still, it doesn’t look good). The beer garden is small, but plenty of seating area.

Used to spend an inordinate amount of time in Chinaskis before moving to Canada 10 years ago. How much did we love it? We still talk about it all the time. We’ll be back one day. (We used to be in enough to be on chatty terms with one particular waitress and we feel bad we just left and never said goodbye).

Hadn’t been for a while, the only reason being it’s different end of town from where I normally meander. So glad we went back. The food was first class. We shared the prawns, pakora and focaccia and all starters were fresh and tasty. Followed by chicken satay and curries all washed down by good house red wine. Can’t wait to go back. Love the laid back atmosphere and the fact it’s a hidden gem.

El hombre detrás de la barra, con el cabello rubio teñido y corto, vertió una medida de vodka en un vaso alto, luego disparó tanta cocaína que el vaso se desbordó. Mi compañero dijo "seguramente cualquier vodka que haya desaparecido ahora" simplemente dijo "Na" y extendió la máquina de tarjetas para pagar mientras miraba alrededor de la barra. No podría haberle importado menos.Una chica detrás de la barra vio esto y vertió una medida de vodka nuevamente en el vaso en este punto, el hombre se había ido al frente de la barra para hablar con alguien.En el pedido faltaban otras dos bebidas. No los había hecho. La misma chica que volvió a servir el vodka lo llamó para que no hablara en el frente del bar y le preguntó si nos había cobrado por ellos. Él dijo que no y simplemente se alejó de nuevo.Entonces, para mí mismo dije "fu # k sake". (Tuve que editar eso para publicar esta reseña) Me sorprendió lo mal que era el servicio al cliente. Luego, la niña dijo "no tienes que maldecirnos". Le dije que no y que no, que había trabajado en un bar durante años y que nunca trataría a un cliente de esa manera. Luego dijo, una vez más, "no necesitas jurarnos" otra vez; Dije que no.Pagamos las dos bebidas y volvimos a nuestra mesa.Para mí, parecía que el barman había tomado más bebidas que nosotros y que la chica lo estaba cubriendo.No volveremos

We visited for a family lunch one weekend and were thoroughly impressed by the food. Starters included popcorn shrimp, salt and chilli chicken wings, breads, olives and soups. The shrimp and the chicken wings were fantastic. Freshly cooked and an excellent portion. We had various mains, the Chinaski burger, the Seoul burger, fish and chips and monkfish satay skewers and a side order of truffle and manchego fries. The burgers were outstanding, full of flavour and a healthy portion of cheese melting on top served with fries and a fresh crisp salad. The monkfish skewers were perfectly cooked and were flavoursome, we asked for ours to be served on Asian slaw rather than noodle salad and it was no problem whatsoever, the staff couldn’t be more accommodating. The fish and chips can only be described as huge! The fish was bigger than the plate and perfectly cooked in a light crisp batter. Sadly we had no room for dessert but we have a good excuse to go back and try some other things from the delicious menu. Staff were friendly and professional. What a great wee place!

Un gran bar con personal amable y un hermoso jardín. He estado viniendo aquí durante años y la comida siempre ha sido un poco como una montaña rusa, en una visita reciente está muy sumergida en este momento. Un montón de hamburguesas en el menú, desafortunadamente mi hamburguesa de Seúl salió fría, cubierta con queso congelado, en un bollo de brioche rancio y acompañada de una 'ensalada' empapada. Gestionó un bocado: se retiró amablemente de la factura sin objeciones.
