Ga Ga in Glasgow City

Excellent decor and renovation, clearly a labour of love. The staff is lovely and enthusiastic, though at times a bit random when it got busier. The food itself, nothing wrong with it though it feels like it's been tamed down for the local palate, veeeeeery little heat or fish sauce-iness associated with the cuisine. Dessert was a bit overly sweet too. Overall, I don't think it's near KaPao or similar small/large sharing dishes.

The food was good but despite being informed to order a few starters and some mains, came courses in totally random order with no sens at all. Got fish which was a main same time as chicken starter, then garnish came last 20min later (potatoes & rice??). Table beside ours had the same issue not understanding what was being served. Food runner even came to us checking what we hadn’t got… A really messy experience! To top it off, being given the table next to restrooms (somebody got to have it..)with the damn door banging in our back every other minute was a real pain! In all, a quite disappointing experience also rather expensive for what you get.

Absolutely love GaGa. Such an amazing space, food is fab and Julie and the team have created something so unique with an amazing story, heritage and theme over the years! One of my fave spots in Glasgow.

Really excellent food, very tasty and great flavours. We had the nasi goreng (not our favourite - quite a dry rice dish); the vegetable curry (amazing!); potatoes with mayo which were great; the oyster mushrooms (good but not my favourite); and the glass noodle and samphire salad (delicious especially the dressing). And a couple of mocktails to wash it down!

Excellent food, packed with flavour. lovely friendly staff very quick service. The restaurant had a good atmosphere and food was completely priced, will definitely return next time we are in Glasgow.

Really enjoyed our meal here recently. Service & atmosphere were great, and the food was amazing. We had 6 dishes between the 2 of us, plus 1 desert to share - turned out to be the perfect amount. A special shout out to the mushrooms - they were truly exceptional.

Really nice restaurant - food amazing - would def recommend the chicken starter and the sea bream!

Had an amazing meal here and can see why it's so popular! Loved the cocktails and heard the house pilsner is nice too. I loved the fried chicken, crispy potatoes and Malaysian chicken curry. We will be back!

Ga Ga is amazing. The food is delicious, the place is very cute, and the menu is very interesting. Drink menu is also full of different options. The menu isn’t huge, but many options including vegetarian and gluten free. It became one of my favorites in Glasgow now.

Put off coming here for far too long. Everything was amazing - and bonus points for being able to bring my dog!

We were welcomed so warmly upon enetering the restaturant that it immediately improved our mood on the grey day we went there. All staff members were attentive, efficient and ready to help. The atmosphere is so fuss free, warm and cosy, that it made us want to spend hours there. The food was the star of the show without any doubt. I had wild tiger prawns and spiced ground sausage and both were incredibly tasty! I will definitely be back to try more.

Super friendly service and nice vibe!! Most of the food is very tasty! But a bit overpriced

Really impressed with this place, creative dishes with Malaysian/Indonesian flavours at the heart. Great service too. Loved everything we had.

Party of 4, all enjoyed the food. Service was excellent.

Oh my gosh! The sea bream with chilli coconut butter was the best thing I have eaten in a very long time. The only thing we didn’t absolutely love was the king prawns but they were still yummy and I believe others would still very much enjoy them. Good service, though sometimes the servers seemed to give the vibe of “seen not heard” which was a bit strange for me. However, they were very friendly, particularly on arrival and departure. Will be recommending this place for sure. LOVED IT!

Fabulous diner. Lovely cocktails, Great food, and the waiting team were lovely. Explained everything on the menu, and friendly & attentive all night. Only bad thing... cocktails were too good! Couple of sore heads in the morning 😄

Great food, service and atmoshpere.

Dealt with a party of 20 beautifully. Everyone delighted with the set menu. Staff and kitchen were respectful of some dietary requirements. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely loved the food and service. Well worth a visit

Michael was absolutely amazing! Great food, amazing service and atmosphere! ✨✨

Tasty food and attentive service ❤️

Love the decor inside we were at the back but the main room is more lively. There’s a nice mix of Asian dishes as small plates, easy to share and try a few. The nasi goreng and tiger prawns were standout! Also their cocktails were 10/10

One of if not the best meal I've had in Glasgow! Brought my mother here as a treat and I will be running back as soon as I can again because the food was immaculate! Great food, great service, great atmosphere! This is your sign to go, you won't regret it! The spiced ground sausage, prawns and summer greens were the star of the show! And for drinks don't miss out on the ole fashion

Great quality food with friendly service. Highly recommend.

First time visiting this place, as a Malaysian, the flavour of the dishes does not match the authentic flavour. Tried 3 different dishes. 1) Crispy potatoes with mayo - has a perfect soft texture in the middle but not crispy at all on the outside. 2) Nasi goreng - the rice were very mush and greasy, it does not taste like Malaysian nasi goreng nor Indonesian nasi goreng. It has a sweeter front flavour to it. 3) Malaysian curry chicken - the presentation looks really good and delicious, after tasting it, it does not taste like how Malaysian curry should be, the dish is also on the sweeter side. Too much lemongrass flavour in it.

Popped in for a few beers, been before for food. Great atmosphere love the background music. Got a great buzz to it. Staff on the ball.

Gaga was amazing! Super cozy atmosphere. I got the sour cocktail and loved it - everything we ate was creative, super flavorful, and fun. Would recommend to anyone!

Been to GaGa a handful of times to dine in and it’s been so tasty every time. Tonight I ordered a delivery with slight anxiety, as we’ve all been there and been disappointed in a meal not served directly to you in the restaurant just not being the same. This was the complete opposite - again beautiful food, great portions and myself and boyfriend felt full and satisfied. Thank you GaGa for consistency and gorgeous food every time.

Great all around. A must visit in Glasgow!

Amazing food, lovely service - couldn't recommend more!

Summer menu was fantastic, really friendly staff and fast service. Loved!

Very average restaurant. Got an instruction beforehand on how to order food , which was kinda weird. The food itself was okayish , not the best we had. Decided not to try further dishes / dessert as felt a bit let down. Service was good . The interior of the restaurant is something I liked with brick lined walls.

Gorgeous wee place. Had to visit after seeing on Somebody Feed Phil and we were not disappointed. Food was amazing and service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing.

Delicious and unique food, friendly and professional staff.

Delicious drinks as well as food! Was amazing!

Perfect from start to finish. Every dish delicious and we ordered almost everything off the menu. Great and fast service. Very good wine list. Will be back !

We had a really lovely dinner here. The service was absolutely fantastic, some of the best we’ve had in Glasgow (shoutout to Zico for that). The atmosphere of the restaurant was also great, once again one of the nicest interiors of any restaurant I’ve been to in Glasgow. The food was all really tasty, and this would probably have been an all round 5 ⭐️ meal if the portions/pricing was tweaked. Each of the mains we got were £14 or £15, and amounted to just a few mouthfuls each (3 of us shared). The mushroom dish - which tasted amazing - was probably the most disappointing at £15 for a really quite modest portion. The mushrooms were also priced the same as the cod with roe, which is difficult to understand. The starters / smaller plates were much more fairly portioned and priced. In total we ordered as recommended - 3 small plates, 3 mains and rice, but we were left wanting just a bit more. I’d definitely return, but I there is work to be done on portioning and pricing here - particularly when competing with other quality restaurants that offer similar sharing-style dishes in Glasgow. To end on a positive, fantastic to have draft lager (not just bottles!) on offer at a more upmarket restaurant. The Pilsners were great.

Great food and service. We had a lovely server Scott. Very helpful and even gave us advice on which pub to go to for our next drink! I’d recommend the chicken curry.

A small menu done well is exactly what's on offer at Ga Ga in Partick. It's split between small and large plates, and we choose one large and three small (plus rice) between two people, which was perfect. The mackerel with green sambal and pickled pineapple was superb. The cocktails looked great, and we were tempted but settled on a bottle of white from the reasonably priced list. Next time, we'll arrive a bit early and have a cocktail at the bar before dinner. Can't wait to return and try the rest of the menu.

We visited this restaurant for the first time recently, and overall it was really nice. The food was good; not the absolute best food from the region that I've had, but every dish was still tasty. The best of the lot was the mackerel - the sambal was especially lovely and had a nice kick. But the most unexpected pleasure of the evening was the cocktails, which were just as good as I'd hope for at a more dedicated cocktail bar. Not cheap, but between us we tried four and all seemed worth the money. The wine selection looked good too, but the cocktails were so nice that it's hard to imagine getting around to wine there. Service was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere was good apart from the quite nondescript repetitive music. Unlike some of the other reviews I didn't find it too loud, but it still started to grate a bit after a while. Maybe a bit more variety would be good? Anyway, overall a very enjoyable meal, and I wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Lovely spot. The food was excellent and the staff likewise were superb

Lovely atmosphere, mocktail was delicious. The noodle starter was nice but could do with more garnish. Cod and sichuan vege dish was lovely. We ordered the tamarind prawn but sadly it was mushy and does not taste fresh, the sauce was delicious. Unfortunately i got a bit ill after eating it. Spoke to waitress who took it off the bill. But most disappointing dish was the curry chicken which was supposedly designed to share- there was only one soft piece of chicken- when we asked the waitress she just said it was meant to be like that, was pre cooked and grilled to warm up. Not quite answering our question. Very expensive for ONE piece of chicken. Very expensive meal overall, unlikely to come back- would recommend you take the same amount of money and go to KAPAO for better service and dinner overall.

After looking for an excuse to visit this place for a few months - an opportunity finally presented itself! Managed to book a table at a very short notice (40 minutes short, to be precise), during our recent visit to GLA. All of the dishes we ordered were just superb, maybe a little bit on salty side, but in our opinion that made them authentic, level of spicyness was perfect. The menu is simple yet well-executed, and the atmosphere is fab, plus being dog friendly makes our next visit to Ga Ga a no brainer. Can't wait.

Amazing food, some of the best we've had. Riots of flavour and fun drinks too boot

Really nice spot with lovely staff and fantastic food. Recommended!

Food was good, but nothing was really outstanding. Dishes came out really fast - would have liked a little more time to eat, especially since we ordered a bunch to try different things.

A place worth trying, the food was excellent, flavours spot on, very nice atmosphere, friendly staff, I highly recommend.

Visited not long after they opened and had a good experience with attentive staff and tasty food. Recently returned and found the service and quality of dishes has really gone downhill. Food greasy and bland at times, had to chase up staff for service and the bill although it was a quieter Sunday evening, atmosphere was noisy.

We absolutely loved our dining experience here! We arrived early for our reservation but were kindly seated at the bar for a drink as we waited for our table: The banana sesame sour was SO good. The food was also outstanding. Our favourite dish by far was the monkfish skewer with peanut sauce. The lamb curry and the crispy potatoes with curry leaf mayo were also delicious. And finally the vibe in the restaurant was great and the decor is on point! This is a special place. Go eat there!

We ordered just about everything off the menu here to share and it was all AMAZING. The corn fritters 🤤 I also love the nasi goreng, fried potatoes and the curries. The staff were all so nice and even gave us free shots for our friend that was getting married. Also unreal cocktails! One of my fave places to eat in Partick and in Glasgow for Asian food.

Over-rated, overpriced food. Nice venue. Nice staff. Prawns sambal, Prawns were nice but sambal sauce was too spicy with too many chilli seeds. Prawns had head and shell on which is not described on the menu, very messy. Nasi Goreng was the most overly oily fried rice I have ever eaten, verging on inedible. £16 is not good value for a basic, greasy veggie fried rice. Only contained a few vegetables and a cheap egg on top. Flavour OK, very salty. Not what I would expect from a Malaysian Nasi Goreng. Very different taste from Julie's Koppitam's Nasi Goreng. Food did not sit well. Nice decor and friendly staff, probably a nice place to hang out for drinks but I came for the food and left disappointed.

Before we visit here, we watched the Netflix series. We booked our table in advance. Generally most of menus are great. Most of staffs are friendly as well. I strongly recommend salad noodle and nasi goreng. However, some of food is very strong flavor and seafood menus are served very late.

Great place to go for food & drinks, good selection of cocktails & wines, Portion sizes were just right for sharing food was extremely tasty , very busy night for the staff, who still managed to be helpful & friendly

Get the lamb curry. Every thing is fantastic. But your missing out of you skip the lamb!

The space was too noisy even though there was few customers, the music was turned up too loud to be able to have a conversation I asked for it to be turned down which it was ever so slightly but then it went back up. Part of the noise was the staff talking amongst themselves. The staff weren’t friendly enough, they took dishes as soon as you had finished them, which I find rude and at one point stretched over my friend to reach one, completely out of order. The food wasn’t great, the crunchy chicken Szechuan was just like a barbecue sauce with spice, the lamb curry the sauce didn’t suit the meat and the lamb wasn’t cooked to its best and the prawn toast was disgusting. I would have liked to have returned most of the dishes and asked for a refund

The prawn toast was truly delicious, and a good nasi goreng. Not so sure about the sweetcorn fritters...seemed a bit bland. Nb. Uber were late with my order and would recommend not doing delivery. Will be way better in person!

Came here because of Somebody Feed Phil and it didn't disappoint. 10/10 food and cocktails. The sea bass dish was a particular standout but everything we ate was fab.

Amazing lunch and cocktails, lived up to the hype 😍

This place has blown me away! The food was delicious and tasty. I left feeling so satisfied and loved. This was definitely the one of the best restaurant I’ve been too! I loved the freshness and quality ingredients used in each dish - it was really amazing! I’ll be back for sure

Had a great meal here, service was excellent. Some comments about lack of flavour, not our experience. It's a really nice space as well. Good non-alcoholic options as well, particularly in the cocktails / mixed drinks section.

Gaga Kitchen & Bar on Dumbarton Road in Glasgow offers a unique dining experience with friendly staff and an eclectic menu. Upon arriving, parking proved to be a challenge, which could be an issue for some visitors. We were seated towards the back of the restaurant, close to the toilets, which wasn't ideal. While we could have asked to be moved, it is worth mentioning for those who might have a preference for a different seating arrangement. On a positive note, we were pleased with the quality of the langoustines and vegetable curry, both of which were excellent. The fish dishes, while tasty, were slightly small for the price. One aspect that may appeal to some patrons but not to others is the presence of dogs in the restaurant. While the food was enjoyable overall, the portion sizes and price point might not be suitable for everyone. It is worth considering these factors when deciding whether to dine at Gaga Kitchen & Bar. In conclusion, Gaga Kitchen & Bar has both strengths and areas for improvement. With some adjustments, this establishment could offer an even more enjoyable dining experience for its customers.

Such a lovely spot! Especially if you’re vegan. The wait staff was so extremely lovely. Perfect date night spot.

Great food, very tasty although quite expensive. Cocktails are fantastic and worth going for just on their own. Lost a star unfortunately because the dessert was advertised as ‘poached pears’ although they included only a single half of a poached pear. While it was tasty I felt a little hood-winked by this false promise. Overall a good experience,

The food is ok but nothing out of the ordinary, perhaps the recommendations were not the greatest. I started my meal with the prawn toast. It lacked flavour and was really greasy. The fried rice dish (nasi goreng with summer greens) was definitely tastier but was not as good as the waitress said. I’ve had this dish in other restaurants and this one tasted quite similar. I was a little disappointed with the service as well. Very slow to pick up used plates and empty cocktail glasses. I wasn’t offered dessert at the end of my meal and felt that the waitress was quite uninterested in serving me. I also noticed a few errors were made at the table sitting next to me. I’m visiting from another country and saw this restaurant on a TV sow so I was very excited to try it out. Unfortunately it does not live up to the hype, at least not from my experience.

Fast fresh super tasty. Friendly efficient staff in a lovely cosy restaurant. With a really nice vibing atmosphere. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back 💯

Can't recommend this place highly enough. The food was amazing - Malaysian Scottish fusion excellence. Service was great; the team were so friendly and very knowledgeable about the dishes (some of them are VERY spicy). Nice relaxed ambience and understated decor. Book a table now!

Incredible food and super helpful staff. Were able to secure us a table on a busy Saturday even though I’d messed up my booking 🫶🏻

Absolutely lovely meal at GaGa, enjoyed every dish. Still thinking about the mango noodle salad this morning 🤤. Staff were really friendly and great vibe in restaurant / bar. Decor also spot on. Hope you open a restaurant in the South side of the city next 🙏🏻

Really excellent restaurant. Went here for a birthday, ordered nearly the full menu between 4. Everything was very very good. The veg curry especially was amazing, better than the lamb curry.

Unpopular opinion. The food took almost an hour, the portion size was far too small for the price and the waitress couldn't sum up our bill properly. Then to ask for a service tip 😅 Not impressed.

Food is fantastic, loved everything we tried! We went with our baby who has just started weaning so staff were very kind and offered us some cucumber for him. Had a lovely lunch! Baby changing and a bit of space for prams. High chairs available. Dogs are welcome.

We were in last month four of us. The food was excellent and atmosphere was spot on, late 90s like almost. The staff were enthusiastic, extremely knowledgeable and genuinely cared that you had a good experience. Beautiful ice cubes!! Owner’s recommendation for drinks was polar opposite of what we were going to order but absolutely nailed it with the cocktails! Can’t wait to go back. DON’T TAKE THE CAR!!

We popped in for one on a Friday night, and the place was very busy, which is always a good sign. The staff was amazing - quick to sit us down and serve us drinks. Love the decor, too. Next time we need to try the food!

After having gone to Julie's Kopitiam for many years we were eager to finally try her newest venture. We went as a party of 8 and pretty much ordered everything from the menu. There wasn't a single dish we didn't enjoy. Most of us were meat eaters but there were two vegetarians and one vegan among us. We were all equally happy, so it's a great place to go with a group of diverse eaters. Well, as long as you like rich Southeast-Asian flavours. Only a few dishes were spicy but all of them tasted really bold (I mean this in a good way). If you like rich Southeast-Asian food, though, you will probably be very happy.

Wonderful food and staff. Thoroughly recommend this restaurant

Very lovely atmosphere and incredibly friendly staff. The food was absolutely top notch. Will definitely be back.

This is a great spot with fantastic cocktails, friendly staff, and a great atmosphere. I would definitely recommend visiting! Each of the four cocktails we ordered were delicious, unique, and made to order as we watched (we had a good view from where we were seated). We only saw some of the food as it made its way to other customers, but have vowed we need to go back to try some ourselves!

If you're looking for nice lighting and nice staff then this is the place for you, however honestly was the blandest food I've had for years... Felt insulting to taste buds and purse.

I really wanted to like this place more. But it just fell short. I will preface this by saying my partner is Malaysian so we do know what “good looks like” when it comes to Malay cuisine. I know it is “Malaysian inspired” but it just tried too hard to be inspired without retaining the culinary delights of Malaysia. Firstly, the staff. All super nice and friendly and good service. Definitely 5 star. Atmosphere was good, like the industrial style decor. We were seated at a booth and found the seats slightly uncomfortable which lost the mark. The food. We had sweetcorn fritters, Kerabu noodle salad, lamb curry, Sambal prawns and Nasi Goreng. In order, the fritters are weird, gloopy and just had an oddness about them. Tasted fine but the texture was off. Noodle salad was nothing like a classic Kerabu salad. It was tasty, but strayed too far from authentic. The lamb curry was my favourite for taste, lamb was amazingly tender and the potatoes in the curry sauce were delicious. Prawns were excellent BUT a tenner for THREE prawns is really a rip off. And they also strayed too far from what we view as a classic sambal. Nasi Goreng was the star dish for both of us, the most authentic dish served with a nice zing to the flavour. Final bill with two cocktails was £82 which felt steep BUT the Nasi Goreng and lamb curry were both more substantial than the typical “small plates” servings, so really we had 2 mains and 3 small plates, so that balances it out. My advice would be to stick with 4 plates maximum if you get these more substantial plates as we did struggle to finish everything. Conclusion - “would we go back” is always my yardstick and the answer is probably not. It was good and I believe 4/5 is a deserving score. I just feel better options are out there in Glasgow. Sorry folks.

Really nice restaurant in Glasgow with extremely tasty dishes. We're meat eaters but the stars were the vegetable dishes. Friendly staff.

Had a delicious meal here, the restaurant was lively and comfortable but the sadly service was some of the worst I’ve had in years. Servers seemed annoyed by being asked questions about the menu and where the toilets were and weren’t very visible or forthcoming with basic service. Probably wouldn’t go back because of this, left a bad taste in the mouth.

Really nice restaurant with good options for veggie and vegan they had a list of all allergens which was really helpful for my nut allergy. Cocktails were tasty

Great service and a superb menu. Can't wait to go back.

Had a very tasty Sunday lunch in Ga Ga. Nice diverse menu and every dish was full of flavour. We even got 1 dish for free as it was the last bit of fish and was smaller than they would normally serve. An unexpected and generous gesture.

Really enjoyed my meal at GaGa. Service was great, very attentive and happy to walk us through the menu. The food was really nice, particularly the prawn toast and fried chicken. The potatoes however could really have used a dip on the side. Other than that, pretty faultless and I’ll look forward to returning!

Hopeless place! Service was an absolute joke and the concept is clearly a rip-off of Ka Pao (but clearly miles off it; even though Ka Pao isn’t that good). Another example of operators and chef’s trying to be too fancy - better to get the basics right first! The English girl that served us was pretty mean-spirited to say the least - not sure that kind of attitude will go far in a city like Glasgow but good luck with that!

Great bar with good selection of cocktails. We only stayed for drinks but food smelled amazing so will definitely be back to dine in!

Absolutely loved this place, the food was delicious, the staff were super helpful and friendly, excellent drinks selection and brilliant recommendations by your staff members. Will be back for sure.

Cracking gaff. Absolutely loved it on every level. Brilliant hospitality and lovely food in a very chilled and friendly environment.

Bring your taste buds, everything was delicious, particularly enjoyed the spicy dishes

Amazing food and service. Music was a bit too loud preventing any kind of normal socialising.

Food is amazing! Only issue was when ordering plain jasmine rice it came half way through the other plates, understand this is the style of service but most of the dishes benefited from the accompaniment of rice. I should have asked for that to be served first I'm sure that would have been possible, better to have cooler rice than none and wait for it to arrive while the main 'awesome' plates get cold. They also allow dogs. An amazing place well worth a visit!

Staff were welcoming and polite without being over-bearing. Good indication of things to come... Prawn toast. Chinese buffet afterthought / complimentary add-on but no doubt elevated to inspired levels of gastronomy to warrant the £9 price tag. I was expecting succulent prawns confit’d in a clarified butter infused with SE Asian herbs and spices, the flesh under-blended to a toothsome bite on crisp bread. Toasty sesame, a sharp but calibrated condiment to cut through the fat… What we got was felt like I was biting into a sponge saturated with oil, ridiculed by the baby food texture of the prawn paste within that had no indication of garlic, ginger, citrus et al. They served this oiled toast with more oil. Chilli Oil. Call me a cynic, but it tasted a lot like what you get in a jar from the Asian supermarket around the corner. A pathetic, wilted strand of coriander garnish perfectly epitomised the experience. The delicious cocktail I had cut through the gag sensation of having gargled multi-use vegetable oil straight from the fryer, and watching my partner wrestle with her cocktail with its obscene wedge of watermelon hanging out of it cheered me up. Stop being so negative - next course! Nasi Goreng. Fried rice with an egg on top. Indo street food staple for those on a budget. Everyone knows Nasi Goreng. The lion’s share of the clientele have no doubt humble-bragged an Eat/Pray/Love lost month or two in Uluwatu spending days on a white girl yoga retreat and nights riding shotgun on a dodgy scooter with a Danish surfer that didn’t bother to remember their name. It is known. Nonsense aside, my expectations of elevated basics were still high and hopeful. Alas, not so much here. £12. Yes, £12. For fried rice that hadn’t seen enough time in the wok and garnished with a sorry-looking fried egg that still had the watery-gelatinous membrane around the yolk. And some overcooked beansprouts and cabbage put through it, and that depressing strand of wilted coriander made a repeat appearance. The food cost percentage on this is seriously taking the proverbial, especially when considering the quality. For this money I would expect Partick’s best Salt Bae look-a-like to make an appearance armed with the pout, gold leaf and a ridiculous knife to stab the yolk. At the very least a minor TV celebrity to do the rounds, no? At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if they tried to palm off a 65p bag of Indomie Mi Goreng Fried Noodles from down the local Morrisons, bunged it in with a soft poached egg, peanut sauce and some greens then charged £15 for it. Unconvinced, we retired. It’s a shame. Another example of the underwhelming yet highly accessible style-over-substance establishments that compensate for their inadequacies with incredibly strong social media game. And we fell for it. Just like the thousands of others that keep the Six By Nico team in the black. The immediate West end area is rife with talent. Within 200 meters of Kelvinhall subway you can get the best dumplings in Glasgow, dine at two serious Michelin recommendation contenders, eat a whole fried chicken, eat the best kimchi in Glasgow, Taiwanese hot pot, authentic Malay, dim sum, clay-pot Cantonese classics, better bahn mi’s than I ever had in Hanoi. What they all lack in PR, alas, they make up for in substance. I would genuinely be curious to see if this is a sustainable neighbourhood addition in what is essentially a little too West of the West End. Thornwood’s credentials includes Flur wines which went the way of the unicorns, Basta pizza whose owner actively pursues the inspired marketing strategy of spending most his time blocking the doorway of clientele whilst chain smoking, Bru only appears to operate on a ad hoc basis, and Bibi appears to be on their second mortgage death rattle None of the above inspires a repeat visit. Points scored for the keen staff and palate cleansing cocktails, but it otherwise felt like a Instagram tick-list destination serving up basic Chinese takeaway scran. 3/10.

Some of the best food I’ve eaten in Glasgow. Excellent vegan selection. Loved it. looked after my partners nut allergy so well

Fab addition to Glasgow's west end eateries. Delicious Southeast Asian share plates, good service and lovely atmosphere - will definitely be back to try out more of the menu. Highly recommend the green curry mussels if they're on when you go.

How lucky is Glasgow to have a restaurant of the quality of Ga Ga?! Malaysian influenced tapas style dishes of the highest order. The fried chicken is to die for, both lamb and chicken curries are fabulous and the prawn toasts are on a different planet to anything you’ll get at your local Chinese. It’s also amazing value for money, the most expensive dish being the curry at £17. The chicken is an absolute bargain at £9. It was so good we ordered a second portion! A good small wine list with the Valpolicella being excellent and again really good value. If you’re in Glasgow just go!

Not as good as at Christmas, disappointed

Excellent food, friendly service and good value. What else do you need?

We loved this restaurant so much we returned a second time during our brief stay. Malaysian-inspired dishes are wonderful with complex seasonings and well-prepared ingredients. Service was friendly. Highly recommended!

Fabulous restaurant, I’d book every week if I lived in Glasgow.
