Ho Wong in Glasgow City

A varied menu that never fails to satisfy. It is real food, nicely made. They are also able to modify dishes for allergies ( a testament to the live kitchen)! The staff are attentive, professional and helpful. The decor is beautiful and it is a pleasure to eat here. Prices are reasonable for the quality and ambience. Definitely somewhere you could keep coming back to.

My husband and I ate here last night for our wedding anniversary. We were booked early at 6pm and the staff were ready to greet us and take our coats. We ordered a bottle of wine and the meal for 2, the food was served very quickly and was amazing and the staff were lovely and very attentive. We were aware you only have the table for an hour and 3/4 but never felt rushed at all. Lovely evening and we will return.

Great food. Overpriced. Everything including soft drinks and water had a significant mark up. Don’t mind paying for quality food but not the added stuff which is clearly the same anywhere.

Was a wee bit worried after reading some reviews all I can say is food lovely staff exemplary lovely evening with family can't understand bad reviews

Without a doubt the best Chinese In Glasgow, Almost in every Friday now!😂 Salt And Chilli 🌶️ Ribs Are Amazing Chicken Satay is To Die For!!

I was a regular customer for well over 20 years in the old place in York st and the standards did go down a bit but still liked it.so i went to try and out the new Ho Wong in Waterloo st for the first time,its a lovely place but was very disappointed,with the food.went for a business lunch today.Two course,the soup was chicken sweet corn soup wasnt that good,the main chicken in a capital sauce was awful,chicken was chewy,for a place iv been a customer since the 90s it was my favourite,i but won't be back,unless it changes.

Unfortunately had a terrible night after being served 3 wrong dishes in our group. The prices were absolutely ridiculous and the portions were half the usual size.After ordering 3 fried rice we were given 3 tablespoons each at £4.50 each.The meals were very bland and had hardly any meat in them at £28.50 each. The restaurant itself was nice and had plenty of staff but totally overpriced and quite tasteless food.I certainly won't be returning.

To be fair, the food was nice, but it is one of the dearer lunch options available in the city. What has brought me to come on here at write a review, though, is the fact that they charge £3.90 for a small bottle of water (or any soft drink, I believe). We simply asked for water - we expected tap, not a £4 drink. My husband and I drank two waters each and were therefore charged almost £16 for WATER. That is a total cheek, and means we will not return.

rude staff.overpriced pretentious.food just okay.do i need to say anymore. avoid this place.chinese rest with michelin prices crazy stuff.also drink prices way to dear.never again.

Went with work, quite a large party. Wasn't paying so I won't comment on value however feel I must comment on food. I've been to many Chinese restaurants and have never tasted a better satay. Outstanding. And the crispy shredded chicken also right up there with best I've tasted. Very classy restaurant, food fantastic. Probably above average price wise on the a la carte but I reckon worth it.

Everything felt rushed . They couldn’t get us out quick enough . Some staff were good but some quite rude . Felt rushed to order , felt rushed to have food and felt rushed to leave . Had better food and better experience for a third of the price . Very over priced and over rated for what it is and won’t be back .

My first time in the new location, delighted to see the decor & styling was unchanged from York St. Was there with my brother and it was an exceptional night's dining. Food was incredible, starting off with the prawn toast, one of the 4 set menu starters. My experience of prawn toast is of a pretty bland, free add on with a takeaway, this prawn toast was phenomenal. That's all I'm going to single out about the food as every mouthful of every dish was incredible. The Ho Wong arguably produces the tastiest Chinese cuisine in the country. Its excellence is reflected in the price. There are many less expensive options, not better value just not as pricey. If you can afford their prices then it's the place for you. My brother and I were there during the week and although it was busy it wasn't mayhem. The service we received was perfect. Courteous and helpful, knowledgable and efficient we couldn't fault them. I'm a wheelchair user and can say i was treated to a completely dignified dining out experience. Their disabled facilities are top notch. A grand night out.

Way overpriced for lunch. We were greeted by a very rude woman, not a welcoming vibe at all. Food was, at best, average. Disappointed.

I’ll start when we walked in to be greeted by a not so very nice manager. Seemed very grumpy and to be honest rude. Sat at a table to wait for our other guests we ordered a couple of drinks. There was absolutely no interaction with us - think the server had better things to do The food was always rushed at the old restaurant on York street ( we were usually in out in an hour ) no bowls and chopsticks were offered. No prawn crackers The food was definitely average. Salt and pepper chicken. Salt and pepper k prawn. Satay chicken which is just not great. Bits of pineapple bits of onion some chicken and a small jar of satay sauce £22. My local Chinese does this for £9 and I can assure you it’s 100% better Grand total inc some rice and noodles and 4 drinks £170. Was always expensive but now ridiculous There are so many much better Chinese restaurants in Glasgow. This one is definitely playing on past success We definitely won’t recommend or return

found it hard to get a booking however i was delighted to find the satay sauce is the same as the original. Have always had great dinner or often lunch and was delighted with the usual standard which has always been outstanding and excelled in all my expectations. Just superb look forward to my return. New place is fabulous and wish them well

We were very very rushed and it was actually quite uncomfortable and wasn’t able to enjoy the food as the servers kept trying to take the plates while we were still eating. We had booked and it said we could have the table for 1 hour and a half. It seemed like they wanted us out the door in 20 minutes. The sweet and sour chicken was very very average however the scallops were very good!

Service was random and frantic. Some staff members genuinely wanted to ensure your meal was going well but most had the personality of a stone and seriously couldn't care less. Food was ok but really not worth the price , particularly on the appetisers/ small plates and desserts. The dim sum were bang average and clearly bought in from the freezer department and the ribs were tiny and dry and that was a total of about £30. Deserts: if you want to see the definition of misrepresentation then have a desert @ £8.30 each, for bought-in tasteless Asda deserts, I felt ripped off. Décor and ambience were as good as it could be for the soulless box it's situated in. It will take me a long time to try them again as China town and kakalok are superior in quality, taste, costs and service. Wine list actually made me laugh out loud. It quite literally promised the earth but delivered a standard Tesco's metro wine isle. Other things to note is that they are against families and have NO facilities what so ever cater for children - truly appalling in 2023/2024

Bland, tasteless food in a cheap chintzy unfriendly interior. Totally left cheated after the hype, couldnt believe how poor the food was. I tried 5 dishes from the 6 at the table and each one could have come out an air-frier with a packet sauce. I left the restaurant with a plastic taste in my mouth which probably came from the coffee but I couldn’t be certain. The staff whilst I’m sure doing their best are unfriendly, bordering on rude to requests for drinks/extras anything actually. Better Chinese restaurants in Glasgow, wouldn’t be hard to be honest.

Yet again, another great meal in the Ho Wong.. Booked the table in July for dinner for last night. Christmas night out with friends. Food was amazing, great service.. Will most definitely be back. So glad it's opened back up again.

Food is just on another level to anywhere else staff are great also love the place. Best satay and ribs going then fillet of beef is just unreal

Excellent Service Excellent food, just a notch above usual Chinese restaurant, for example the beef and black bean uses fillet steak Price is a bit cheeky, saying that I'd go again as the food was very good

Visited Ho Wong today with family which included my 4 month old daughter. As soon as the female staff seen a car seat they were rude and aggressive!! What seemed to be the female manager actually screamed at us saying we never told her we...

WOW. Just Wow. What a stunning experience going here is. Service from the minute you walk through the door (taking coats, showing you to see for a Pre Dinner drink, bringing menus) etc is just First Class. The you get to " the main event"...

Having been to the old restaurant, we were excited to go back when this opened. The decor itself is stunning and the restaurant is huge, however this is where it ends and the reason is was given a two star rating. The food is severely...

Outstanding service and food. A fantastic meal to celebrate a big anniversary. Every last thing ordered was perfect. Wonderful restaurant that feels really special.

Visited last night as a group of 7 people. Everything we all ordered individually was incredible. I had The Yuk Sung and prawn dumpling for starters which were amazing and the chicken curry was banging! Service was impeccable as always and the decor of the...

Great food great service first time customer booked for 8pm arrival at 7pm not an issue great menu plenty of staff to cover all tables

Overpriced. Little sauce with dishes, very dry. Avoid cocktails. Ordered pornstar martini still waiting for Prosecco on side. Told was already added served warm not even room temperature. Staff hovering constantly to take orders. And snatch plates. Will not be back. Spoiled 60 birthday celebration

What a fantastic meal we all had, then we got the bill £80 handed over £100 gift voucher and no change or voucher offered for difference of £20 - with no explanation given as to why this was the case, really!!!! Had the bill been...

Took my Husband to Ho Wong for his birthday. First time in new premises. Arrived 7:30pm and shown to our table. Served quickly for drinks and food order. Starters arrived, couldn’t fault them, food was good. That, unfortunately, was as far as we got at...

The Ho Wong never disappoints. This is my second visit to the ‘new’ Ho Wong and I’ve been thoroughly impressed both times. The service is impeccable. Our glasses were never empty. The food is gorgeous and came quickly with no fuss. We were running very...

This was recommended to us as the "best asian restaurant in Scotland" and the food was really exquisite. We got the appetizer plate and 3 different main courses, which were all delicious. I would have given it a 5 star review if it weren't for...

I don’t normally comment on food review sites, but went for lunch at the new Ho Wong today (We normally favour our impeccable favourite on West Regent St) but I’d been to the original one and liked it years ago so thought we’d check the...

Been here several times both in the old restaurant and the new. The latest visit was a great disappointment . Wanted a nice relaxing meal out but when we arrived were told we must vacate table in 1 1/2 hours. Then seated at a squashed...

Was really looking forward to trying the new restaurant having frequented the old premises on numerous occasions. We were out for a friends birthday and booked a reservation for 7pm, 4 weeks ago. When we arrived for our reservation our table wasn’t ready (which is...

Restaurant was lovely but far too many staff . They circulated every few seconds . The food was nice but far too expensive and iti be charge £4.50 for a portion of prawn crackers was unbelievable. . Most places give them automatically for free ....

First visit to the new premises for the business lunch and it did not disappoint. Food was top quality and great value for money . Decor is beautiful and staff were lovely . Definitely be back

The food is okay but they require a minimum spend of £ 30 per person. We are eating out very often and ALWAYS spend more than £ 30 per person, usually substantially more, also this time. However, nobody should tolerate and support this lousy business...

Me and my husband uesd to enjoy the food here, the fillet steak Cantonese is authentic and the steam whole lobster is brilliant ,but the Malaysian lady who took the order is extremely rude , who rush me for my drink order and she just...

Second timer now at the restaurant and stunning food AGAIN. Had been with the good lady before and was now time for that “Special” occasion with the kids. Five starters 2 Crystal King Prawns 2 Salt n Chilli Squid 1 Salt n Chilli Ribs Absolutely...

Was a huge fan when the restaurant was in York St, back when the original owners were Jimmy Ho and David Wong. It was always more expensive than most Cantonese’s restaurants but you got what you paid for. Fast forward almost 40 years, the food...

Have visited the Ho Wong many times over the years, both on York street and the new location at Waterloo street. The food is incredible, the best Chinese in Scotland. Quality comes with high prices, though the business lunch is great value. We enjoyed our...

Absolutely fantastic food. Great service Lovely decor even the toilets are beautiful. Used to to go to York Street a lot with my late husband he also took customers there

As expected this Restaurant having moved its location would still produce food of quality. Certainly not the cheapest, but then the quality speaks for itself. Will certainly be back as have missed a good Chinese Restaurant in Glasgow

We found Ho Wong to be exceptional on our visit. We went without reservations...of course they were nearly full and we knew that we would not be seated; however, the owner kindly seated us anyway at a later arriving reserved table. Wait staff were highly...

Came for lunch was lovely till got the bill charged for extra bottle prosecco and an extra bottle of water omg got the prosecco off the bill and had to go back for the water. 15 pounds and 35 pounds shocking ho wong

Visited many times in the old location and new premises. Always amazing food and the best service. Would highly recommend the Yuk Sung

Let's start off with the obvious. The Ho Wong was a very popular restaurant in the last and after reopening and I safely say that it's terrible. We went here for my mum's birthday as it used to be one of her favourites but it...

My partner and I were given a voucher for our Engagement and were really excited to try as we'd heard good things. The service was great from the start, very attentive and lots of staff. Ordered a bottle of wine - the servers were constantly...

First time in the new restaurant, meeting friends for lunch . Thought the food was very good & the portion size was perfect. The restaurant decor is modern Chinese & very tasteful. However, our lunch was marred by mostly abrupt & unfriendly staff . Constantly...

Our experience of this restaurant was faultless, The service, attention to detail and the food were exceptional. Each of our courses were served perfectly, the foods was delicious. There is a lovely waiting area if you arrive early or wish to have drinks. The restaurant...

First time back since they reopened in the new location. Warmly welcomed and quickly show to our table and the drinks order taken. The lunch menu selection is not large but was quite varied. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout our visit. The food...

Went for lunch today. Portions are getting smaller an onion and 5 tiny bits of beef. £32 each wow. As much as I love the food, I have not heard one person say it’s not over priced. Fairly rapid and impersonal service

Excellent food quality with great service. Not your average Chinese restaurant, a class well above. Really impressed.

Thank you to Michael and team for a fabulous night. Birthday accessories were delivered to the restaurant and the table was decorated as we had wanted for arriving. The food was amazing and everyone cleared their plates. Can't wait to return again soon

Well my 2nd visit to what was one of my fav restaurants...never again ! My local takeaway has a better menu than their business lunch at £18.50 for 2 tasteless courses.Total bill £53.80 as they charged £3.80 for a small glass of irn bru.Same price...

Food didn’t disappoint, this was a return trip and will definitely be booking again. Staff very helpful

Billed as the best Chinese restaurant in Glasgow we were looking forward to our meal. Sadly it was tragically disappointing with disconnected and uninterested staff. Food was mediocre and not as good as my local takeaway and it should be so much better at those...

I agree with the last few reviews; rude and bordering on the aggressive staff. I got the feeling that we were a real inconvenience to them.. Our waitress pestered us to make a decision on our menu choices. I’ve never experienced that before. She wouldn’t...

I am not going to dwell on this review as I only review bad places. For me no news is good news. This is news but the less I think about this place the better. I love "authentic chinese food" but having eaten in China...

Visited for lunch - Nice restaurant. Food was OK but nothing special. Service and staff absolutely shocking! Dismissive and disrespectful. I don’t mind paying a bit more for the ambiance and OK food but at least be nice to your customers. We paid (including soft...

Visited this restaurant on 19th Feb 23 service was terrible and food good but vastly over priced had to ask if thay could take the order as been waiting a long time for the waitresses the head waiters attitude was condescending would recommend you go...

The restaurant is beautiful. Brilliantly designed with gorgeous fabrics and wall papers - the ambiance is thus good. But that is where the good news ends. The staff are politely and efficient but border on rude. There is a distinct impression that they want you...

Sorry but despite the swanky decor et al, this was absolutely rubbish value for money. The food is average; service is poor; prices are stupid. Don’t bother with the hype.

Went here on Saturday night for a meal with my other half. The decor is beautiful, the staff very friendly and the food was fantastic. We both had beef for our mains and the meat just melted in your mouth. The aromatic crispy duck starter...

Visited this restaurant years ago when in the old premises. It was a lovely and memorable dining experience. The restaurant was cosy, intimate and such a prestigious restaurant to be in. The staff never rushed you and the food was superb. Was so looking forward...

Been couple of times and without a doubt my favourite restaurant food is quality and so is service .Always look forward to it .It’s is pricey but feel for experience it’s worth it.

The food is unbelievable. We left some rice and noodles, but everything else was absolutely consumed to the full. I’ve had some Chinese food in my years, but this is off the scale. Expensive yes, but there in lies the quality.

Staff are rude, unwelcoming. It was a very cold atmosphere eager to rush us out the door. Food wasn't all it's made out to be either.

We went to the Ho Wong on Friday I was so looking to forward to it. I had been lots of times and the food was always amazing, so I was so excited to take my new partner because I had told him how amazing...

I had a lunchtime special, which is great value. The normal menu is quite expensive but the food is absolutely delicious. I had been in the previous restaurant in York Street, which was not the easiest for getting about in the wheelchair. Although the new...

Beautiful decor, great service and fabulous food. It was a very busy Friday night with lots of Christmas parties but service was good and food was amazing. Was recommended by several friends & family and did not disappoint.

Myself and my friends had a meal at this restaurant , we used to go when it was in York Street and we loved going , got to say we all were a bit disappointed in the new venue . We had no complaints about...

Mmm not brilliant. And we were chucked out. I’m utterly stunned. Been coming here Ho Wong for over 30 years. Tried new location tonight, never again. New manager Mr Chung was totally aggressive, rude towards 3 women. Totally bullying and addressed us in such an...

Good Points The restaurant was lovely. The Food was good. Bad Points Service was very Regimented/Pushy We had to ask for drinks etc up to three time before they were brought. They failed to take the £100 deposit off the bill. Drink prices are massively...

We arrived here and we had to wait 15 mins despite booking a table. When we did get the table the service was good, apart from one rude older lady who was taking our orders. The menu is very expensive, 12 pounds for 6 small...

Over priced we ordered the banquet for 4 4 waters and 2 beers Total price £247 Food was lovely but it wasn’t the experience I had heard about. I’ve also had the same quality of food at lower prices in other restaurants .

The food is ok, not great which at these prices it should be. This is London prices and it's far from what you would expect for a so-called high end restaurant. The portions are small and everything like your rice and noodles is also extra....

This is not your average Chinese restaurant, it is an exceptional place, lavishly decorated, the food and service quite outstanding. The food is a bit pricey, probably reflecting the gas prices presently to make the dishes, but the quality is very good. Having travelled extensively...

This was not a meal, this was a wonderful experience, the first thing to strike me was the stunning decor, matched by the warmth of the welcome from the staff. We enjoyed a comfortable seat in elegant surroundings before being guided to our table, again...

The main courses are between £20.50 -£30 this is for an average portion. You then have to order rice etc and an cost of £4-£6. Starters are also over priced but would say they were nice. The rest of the food was just ok not...

Came for wedding anniversary-told them in advance hoping for a really special evening Was squeezed between two other small tables Starter platter was good Main course fish combo-squid monkfish king prawn and scallops all massively over cooked Took squid as soon as plate put down-almost...

First timer at the Ho Wong and it won’t be the last. Let me start by saying it’s definitely on the pricey side so maybe we will return with the family for a SPECIAL occasion. Wife and I had a lovely meal,food was exceptional. Looked...

For a family meal for daughter's 21st birthday we chose the Ho Wong. Stunning interior, happy, smiling, efficient staff, amazing food. It was a Saturday night and the atmosphere was great. A football manager and Labour leader were there which caused a bit of a...

I have been going to the Ho Wong since 2007, and more regularly since it reopened at new location. Quite simply the best Chinese restaurant in Glasgow, ever.

I went to this restaurant early in the evening and asked for a table for only to be told that there was no space for one person... it was bloomin empty ... looked at the menu before i went in and it was VERY expensive......

Although the food was good (probably a bit overpriced), it was what I'd expect from a good Chinese restaurant. The staff were just shocking. Shocking in the way that you glance at friends with a look of - did that just happen, did they just...

With the Closure of York St, I was wondering if the Ho Wong would retain its Quality of Food, Service and retain a similar ambiance. The answer iis are quite simply yes. A good choice on the menu & including set meals for larger parties....

Been here a few times, but probably will be my last, was there at the weekend and the service was absolutely shocking, the women who work in the restaurant have no customer service skills, very rude and it’s very off putting when this should be...

Visited without booking, were given table at 7pm on basis table required back by 8.30pm This set the tone of the service throughout which was perfunctory at best. Dessert menus tossed on the table without backward glance and literally taken from my husbands hand when...

Came here under recommendation, was not disappointed, lovely restaurant, friendly staff and great food, crspy duck pancakes followed by fillet beef with ginger and spring onion and salt and chilli chicken. Will definitely be back ❤️

We had our first visit to the new Ho Wong tonight to celebrate a friend’s birthday. We were slightly nervous that it might not be as good as the old restaurant but from the moment we stepped in the door it was clear that nothing...

First time back at the new Ho Wong and will definitely be back soon , we all had a delightful meal , We had a larger table than normal and we were in the side room of the restaurant which was excellent . Food and...

Having had a lovely (but expensive) meal at the new Ho Wong last week we returned last night. However, we were disappointed: the food was not as good as we experienced the previous week - perhaps there was a different chef on duty? The portion...

This was our first visit to the Ho Wong since it’s relocation from York Street to Waterloo Street. The Ho Wong is currently a “Hot Ticket” on social media in the Glasgow area and, with our friends, we were looking forward to this meal which...

We had an excellent dinner at Ho Wong, probably the best Chinese food, we ever had, and it is coming from a family of big Chinese food lovers. Absolutely loved everything, the food was great, the service was impeccable.

We visited the Ho Wong as a large family group for a celebration. The staff were rude/abrupt on arrival & throughout the experience, at every interaction we had from ordering food and drinks right through to payment. To make matters worse a female member of...

I went in off the street without a reservation and was able to get a table, which was great. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The decor is beautiful, as was the food. Yes it is a bit expensive, but you get what you...

I had only heard stories about the way the management was extremely rude at ho wongs and the way they had been rude to previous customers but never in a million years did I think I’d fall victim to it too. We went for dinner...
