An enjoyable meal in the west end of Glasgow, lots of sunshine and a buzz in the air in this popular area of the city. Had my first mock tail which was delicious. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful, most impressed! Will definitely return, thank you!

Always liked this place - desserts usually very good.Outdoor dining on a chilly night, not a good start when told the heaters weren't working.Eventually, one did.Small plates incredibly expensive for what they are - such a rip off, this fashion for tapas style food.The cod dish however was excellent - salmon ceviche underwhelming.My beef burger tasted of - I don't know, but it wasn't beef! I make these myself at home, minced beef, red onion, seasoning - how can something so simple, so tasty, be got so wrong?? Odd, smooth texture too.Didn't finish it, a sorry example of a burger, worst I've ever tasted.Hoped my rhubarb parfait would be a cheer up but I think the chef forgot to add the rhubarb to it! No taste of rhubarb at all - just a smooth,creamy, pink...blah.My husband's sliced steak was good though the accompanying sauce was oddly flavoured and overwhelmed the beef.It'll be a long time before we come back to this place - will wait to hear if they've got better chefs/reverted to previous standards.

Visited this restaurant after being recommended it from a friend and it met our expectations and more! :)Visited the restaurant with my boyfriend for one of first post lockdown dinner and drinks outings and we had a great time. We arrived first for drinks outside on the street. Bar staff were happy to make cocktails which were not on the menu, I ordered a mojito and it was divine! Service was quick outside as well and well covered to accommodate the ever changing Scottish weather. We then moved inside for dinner and the food was unbelievable. I had the curry of the day which was a Trinidad Chicken Curry and it tasted amazing. My boyfriend had a burger which also looked amazing. The service from our server was excellent, she was always making sure we had enough water and making sure we were all ok. The interior inside was beautiful as well, it feels like we've found a little gem in Glasgow!Would definitely be recommending here to friends and we would definitely be back. Thank you for an amazing first visit :)

Booked a table for breakfast at 11.15 on bank holiday Monday. Arrived, downloaded the menu, both agreed what we were having the then be told they don't serve breakfast through the week, and it says so on the menu (it does, but you don't see that until you get into the restaurant).We decided we would just have coffee, coffee came, with no sugar on the side, which I understand, however, wasn't even offered by the waitress.Might I suggest you amend your booking facility, so when people book, they aren't grossly misinformed.Giving one star as the coffee was adequate, all but bitter as no sugar offered.

Visited on first weekend since restaurants allowed to reopen. Aside from a strange voicemail message from an Irish lady threatening to give away our table to walk ins - we had booked for 4pm and the message arrived at 3:55???- we did have a lovely meal. The men- husband and adult kids opted for the very safe and delicious burger but I chose the skate wing with mussels and prawns. It was a treat/ full of flavour and definitely something I couldn’t do at home. It’s a shame not to be allowed even one glass of wine to pair it with but hey ho. Just calm down with the crazy threatening voicemails/ it’s not very hospitable and did taint my experience. I know restaurants are struggling which is why we came in first place. Instead invest in software where guests can confirm by email. By the way I’d already given my bank details in advance to book which again kind of grates re the tone of the voicemail.

Fui a cenar un miércoles por la noche con 4 personas a las 6. 30 hs. Se colocaron en una mesa bien alejada de los demás con la entrada de datos de seguimiento de contactos y la revisión del menú procesada a través de un teléfono inteligente. Todo el personal lleva máscaras. El personal tomó los pedidos de bebidas primero y luego, después de que las bebidas fueron entregadas, tomó nuestros pedidos de comida. El personal fue amable y eficiente.Teníamos una combinación de platos pequeños y platos grandes. Salieron platos pequeños en diferentes momentos como tapas. Más tarde salieron platos grandes. Pero el tiempo de espera no es demasiado largo.Las vieiras, la ensalada de quinoa y las patatas con especias estaban bien. Las croquetas de pescado estaban bien pero muy saladas. La merluza y la hamburguesa estaban bien. El pan de masa madre era fantástico.Mi única queja fue que el camarero tiraba botellas vacías a la basura con el consiguiente ruido.

Cenamos en Stravaigin a principios de septiembre. Teníamos parientes que venían de fuera de la ciudad, así que pensamos en invitarlos a una buena comida escocesa. Desafortunadamente, nuestra noche se arruinó por el personal grosero e incompetente (incluido el gerente).Al llegar, pedimos cócteles, que tardaron mucho tiempo en prepararse, sin embargo, era viernes por la noche, así que sabíamos que el bar probablemente estaba lleno de pedidos.Procedimos a pedir entrantes y platos principales, y para ser justos, los entrantes llegaron relativamente rápido. Sin embargo, una vez que se retiraron, no escuchamos ni pío del personal (aparte de traer una botella de vino a la mesa), hasta que les avisamos casi una HORA Y MEDIA más tarde preguntando dónde estaban nuestros platos principales.La camarera dijo que consultaría con la cocina, sin embargo, era obvio para nosotros que no había hecho el pedido.Luego, el gerente se acercó y trató de culpar a la cocina del retraso, diciendo que el jefe de cocina no estaba contento con la hamburguesa y, por lo tanto, ¡todo tenía que cocinarse de nuevo desde cero! Claramente una mentira. Nuestra comida llegó 10 minutos más tarde, y para entonces ya eran más de las 10 de la noche.Después de terminar pedimos la factura y la trajeron sin quitar nada (como decir un gesto de buena voluntad). Luego procedimos a preguntarle a la camarera si (por ejemplo) se podía quitar el vino ya que habíamos esperado horas por nuestra comida.Cinco minutos más tarde, el gerente se acercó y, en tono sarcástico, dijo: "Oh, has pedido que se retire el vino de la cuenta, nunca hacemos eso. He decidido que puedo quitarme la hamburguesa (4 más barata que el vino), ya que eso es lo que provocó el retraso. Luego dijo: “Oh, lamento que hayas tenido que esperar un poco para tus comidas. ”(De nuevo en tono sarcástico).Luego lo corrigí para decirle que de hecho no fue una espera “pequeña” y que claramente la orden no se había cumplido. Luego procedió a levantarme la voz y me dijo: "Disculpe si hemos arruinado su noche" (entre otras cosas groseras). No fue hasta que uno de los hombres de la mesa intervino que retrocedió y dejó la mesa. Comportamiento absolutamente espantoso.La mesera luego regresó a la mesa con la máquina de tarjetas y actitud SERIA. (¡¿Dónde encuentran a esta gente grosera?!) Rápidamente liquidamos la cuenta y nos fuimos, para no volver jamás.Le hemos contado a la mayor cantidad de personas posible nuestra experiencia. Hay muchos otros buenos restaurantes en Glasgow, ¡no pierda su tiempo y dinero aquí!

Mi familia y yo hemos visitado este restaurante durante varios años. Una vez que se relajaron las reglas de bloqueo, decidimos ir aquí para nuestra primera cena. Tuvimos que pagar un depósito que estábamos felices de hacer. Nuestra experiencia fue terrible y totalmente vergonzosa. Al pedir nuestra comida / bebida tuvimos algunos problemas que estaban bien, ya que entendimos completamente dado el bloqueo. La comida de mi esposo no fue lo que pidió y, por lo tanto, regresó y tomó tanto tiempo para la comida de reemplazo que la cancelamos. Sin embargo, cuando recibimos la factura había comida y bebidas que no habíamos pedido. Una vez que esto se rectificó, notamos que el depósito no había sido deducido. Cuando se le preguntó esto, la manera y la actitud de la camarera fue espantosa y negó que se hubiera pagado el depósito. Nos sentimos totalmente humillados y, al enviar un correo electrónico sin respuesta, asumimos que los clientes no importan.

Visité este restaurante mientras me alojaba con mi hermana en Glasgow.Teníamos grandes expectativas para la comida y la noche.Tuvimos una gran camarera que fue muy atenta. Ya le habíamos dicho al restaurante que mi hermana tenía alergia a la cebolla y el ajo y que yo podía comer cebollas. Pedimos y desde allí fue problema tras problema.Para empezar, hubo problemas con los alimentos que eran veganos y sin cebolla ni ajo. La cocina claramente no pudo ayudar anoche y mi hermana tuvo que cambiar sus opciones dos veces.Luego, tuvimos que esperar años por nuestra comida. Fue más de una hora y media. Sabíamos que las comidas salían en diferentes momentos, pero también había espacios enormes entre las comidas de cada persona. Había pedido el bistec que solo tenía bistec y una papa, no se ofrecían otras opciones (debido al problema de la cebolla). También había pedido este plato de vieiras con un sonido increíble. Cuando llegó, estaba sentado sobre un lecho de quinua. No me ofrecieron esto como una opción y me sentí completamente ofendido por las vieiras que estaban sentadas en quinua simple.La camarera siempre se disculpó y culpó mucho a Covid por los problemas. La cocina quitó el pudín de la cuenta como disculpa.Fue una pena que todo fuera tan decepcionante ya que la mayoría de la comida estaba deliciosa.

Vine aquí con algunos amigos para comer algo rápido al comprar.Los cócteles y la comida eran deliciosos. ¡Los haggis en particular fueron excelentes! El personal fue excelente, amable e informativo también, por lo que odio comentar al respecto, pero el servicio fue notablemente lento. Podría entender si estaba lleno, pero solo había dos o tres mesas y esperamos media hora antes de tener que preguntar si podíamos pedir. Desafortunadamente, esto parecía suceder en cada plato / ronda de bebidas y esto arruinó un poco nuestros planes para el resto del día. Aunque, entiendo que todos están volviendo al trabajo y en estas nuevas circunstancias, por lo que tal vez estén volviendo al ritmo de las cosas y no se les pueda culpar, pero vale la pena mencionarlo si tiene prisa y solo está buscando un bocado rápido.La comida era excelente, sin embargo, sentí que las porciones eran un poco más pequeñas, así que ordene grandes y obtenga algunos lados si tiene mucha hambre.En general, un pequeño gran lugar con un personal acogedor y experto y comida tradicional sabrosa. Vale la pena la visita.

Trouvé par hasard en cherchant un endroit où manger, ce restaurant propose un coin bar et un coin restaurant. Ce dernier s’articule autour d’un cadre atypique qui ne manquera pas d’attiser votre âme de photographe. Côté repas, la carte est très diversifiée et propose des produits frais locaux. Un vrai régal. Petit bémol, le plat au curry était très épicé et rien n’était indiqué sur la carte a ce sujet.Le service est long mais ça vaut le détour. A faire absolument.

We paid £35 each last night for the 5 course fish tasting menu- after 1 hour and 15 minutes, course 3 still had not arrived; we should have guessed something might be amiss when we couldn’t decide if course 2 was meant to be served hot or cold- it had obviously sat on the pass for quite some time. Despite reminding staff several times that we had been kept waiting too long we were not offered as much as an apology. Definitely a restaurant dining out on its past reputation, will not be back! Very poor service; dismissive staff.

Came here on a Saturday and we all highly enjoyed our evening. They also have a fire place by the bar side which made the building nice and warm in a very wet and cold evening. The fairy lights also gave it a magical feel. The menu is great with traditional Scottish food and asian inspired food too. Our group were all from different parts of the world and we all manage to find something we wanted to eat. Food was delicious especially the ox cheek and lamb neck. Sharing platters were also great. Service was friendly and staff engaged well with us. Special mention to the short asian manageress. We had people from Lithuania, Greece and Poland. She was chatting away to them in their languages and made them feel most welcomed. Will definitely be back when we visit Scotland again

After spending several hours watching rugby in a large group and spending several hundred pounds we were informed that the manger needed one of our seats for the restaurant- I would like to say we were asked but she literally tried to order one of us off a seat. The staff behind the bar and the floor staff had been great all day but this woman was aggressive and dismissive and we will not be back. Dissapoining also that this was the first time we had taken family and friends. Extremly poor.

Just back from dinner here, there were 4 of us in total; 2 who have no food intolerances, 1 coeliac and 1 with gluten intolerance. We were welcomed warmly and presented with 2 'normal' menus and 2 gluten free menus. After ordering from the extensive menu, we were served the best gluten free bread with a delicious dip. I said out loud "wow this bread is delicious, I'd love the recipe" to no one in particular and carried on eating away happily.After a thoroughly delicious 3 course meal, one of the waiters came over and passed me a hand written note from the chef. It was the recipe for the bread, as the waiter had overheard me and decided to get the recipe for me. Outstanding service!This was a great dining experience and I'd happily go back. All of us loved the food and the service, and it was so lovely to be able to eat out with so many options and thought put into the food and experience for those that can't eat gluten. Thanks!

I ate in the cafe here with friends at lunch time. I had Nasi Goreng which was really nice and they have a good selection of drinks. The only things that let it down is the staff (including the manger, she was probably the most incompetent) who were completely uninterested in serving us, kept bringing us drinks for other people’s tables (this was also happening to other people). I would say that the food is a bit overpriced for what you’re getting but cooked very well. Also if you’re allergic to dogs you should probably avoid.

We booked a table in advance as knew Stravaigin allows dogs, and mentioned this when we booked the table. The restaurant was empty when I arrived but was shown to probably the smallest worst placed table in the restaurant. When I told the waiter there was a dog coming he said that we would need to sit downstairs but that a downstairs table probably wouldn’t be available. Bizarrely it took a good few minutes for him to figure out where to place us in an almost empty restaurant, with no clear reserved tables. The service continued to be dismal, taking ages for drinks and food to arrive. The food wasn’t up to scratch although expensive (over 20 quid for a main course). Was also told that they no longer serve breakfast or brunch although they haven’t updated their website with this information. All round terrible dining experience, don’t go!!

Was recommended this restaurant and it pops up in a lot of guides as a good place. Food was great but better service and more professional staff at McDonalds. No one to meet us upon entry, didn’t understand the seating area so stood at the bar 10-15 minutes waiting to get a drink, left embarrassed with no drink and then finally found a maitre d', didn’t announce himself as one and as far as I was aware he was just another customer. He finally held a clipboard up at me in a condescending way and found our booking. Took us downstairs (should be sign posted that dining is downstairs), and everyone was a clumsy student, poorly trained, dropping things all the time. Asked the person I was dining with how the pigeon was when he’d ordered the cod. I never usually complain but just felt I didn’t enjoy my food as so dissatisfied with the poor service.

You need to order side dishes to really have enough food on your plate. This increases the final bill and makes you feel you have been abused a little... Especially when the food on your plate does not taste as nice as you had anticipated. Avoid eating upstairs in Stravaigin II as it is very noisy and the room is not in perfect condition. Apparently it is an excellent place on Monday evenings to listen to music and just eat a little and take a beer.

The food is always good at Stravaigan but last night they didn’t have a starter we wanted then main courses arrived and 2 where cold so the Manager ( Gavin) took them away and got them re made although took 20 mins whilst the other 2 at our table finished theirs which wasn’t good...however Gavin then could not apologise enough and didn’t charge us for the 2 replacement main course and free deserts and he therefore turned a bad situation to a really positive one....he is a credit to your company!!!

Three of us had dinner at Stravaigin on a Monday night. The restaurant was quite busy but not full. We ordered olives to share and these were served with our main courses, rather than before. We ordered two glasses of wine and as I had almost finished my meal and I was still waiting for the wine. In frustration I went downstairs to the bar to ask for the wine. It was a pity the service let down what should have been a special birthday meal. The food was good and the vegan option was particulalry appreciated.

Despite some really brilliant examples of shocking service had a nice meal. Food was good, wine lovely and great Bloody Mary. What would you expect from one of Glasgows finest establishments? However once again we were not disappointed by some fantastic examples of ridiculous service. We were told we could not have a main course portion of the starter risotto because they did not have big enough plates. We then got served our second choice on the menu- in huge plates. We ordered 2 glasses of wine which took ages to come, when we eventually did get them (30 mins) after 3 reminders, they were served in a very snippy and stroppy manner. Some of the staff are great but as we always find in Stravaigin, some unfortunately have a lofty opinion of themselves.

Have been here on a number of previous visits and thoroughly enjoyed. This visit was no exception! Menu, ingredients & preparation, presentation, etc all good.During the meal we were beset by a large, and very noisy, group. The staff move us to another table and dealt with the situation very well. Full marks!

Husband surprised me with a birthday date night and booked us in here for dinner. All I can say is AMAZING! I had curried muscles to start, the muscles were massive and the portion size was grand, I then had Shetland Hake with pulses and the freshness of the fish was superb! TOH had haggis neeps and tatties followed by the burger and big chunky chips, all washed down with some smooth wine. We didn't have room for dessert. Staff were prompt and friendly with the personal touch where the Maitre D' knew my husbands name from the booking and welcomed us with a smile using his first name. We will definitely be returning here, if in Glasgow, this place is a must!

This restaurant was recommended by locals and it did not disappoint. We had the curry (spicy and delicious) and the chicken and a couple desserts and everything was wonderful. The staff were very friendly, giving us Scottish beer recommendations. Overall, a great experience in a very cool neighborhood.

Went on the evening with 7 business associates. Amazing place, great ambiance but most importantly amazing food. Great fresh ingredients cooked to perfection. If you are going to have haggis anywhere in Glasgow it has to be here. Great wine selection.

We booked well in advance from another country on the other side of the world, as this was to be our special last night of holidays meal. We researched and read about the edgy Scottish traditional food with modern twists, with almost reverential references to pigeons, venison and wonderful seafood. What we got was a barely above average meal. Certainly better than pub food, but not fine dining. Restricted menu, average wine list which seems to be more interested in being woke than being wonderful. Pork belly overcooked, mussels delicate flavour totally over borne by heavy handed and stock standard curry sauce. What hurt this experience for us was not the food so much, as it was what it was, perfectly acceptable mid level cafe food, it was the gap between the on line reverence and reality, that disappointment influenced our experience. Not the last night we wanted.

We came here on a Saturday night and we found the atmosphere electric in the bar prior to dining. It was crowded with young people and West End “luvvies”; we found conversation impossible.

This restaurant was worth the wait as had always wanted to dine there when I lived down south. Great service, not pushy but attentive. Food delicious and very nice presentation. We had hake and lamb for main with side order of garlic vegetables. Portions were filling but we still looked at desserts. Unfortunately banana crepe brûlée was no longer available and to be honest we were full so ordered coffees instead which were really good. Nice atmosphere and quite noisy but it was Saturday night so expected. Would thoroughly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning.

As always Stravaigan provides great food. It has a range of drinks if that is all you are looking for too. We were in with my baby and the staff were friendly and helpful. Only minor point was the baby changing is in the disabled toilet. The door of this toilet is a very heavy sliding door which is clearly off the runners. It’s difficult to open and close and more so if holding a baby never mind if you were in a wheel chair. Otherwise a good place to visit.

As my title suggests we were rather an unusual party to get somewhere to eat at a lunchtime in the west end of Glasgow. We hadn’t booked anything as we weren’t sure what time we would eat, the server managed to squeeze us into a booth, it was a bit cramped, but assured us she would more us when another was available, she did just as she said she would. The service was excellent and so was the food, everyone had a lovely time. I would definitely recommend, and will be back to sample something else yummy of the menu next time I am in the area. Thank you for your help.

Great night. However when we ordered the monkfish, it came and it was tiny!! We complained, only for the waitress to say that she will pass are remarks onto the chef. We received no apology, or alternative. I think when you are paying £23 for a bit of fish it should be bigger than a 50 pence piece. Won’t be back.

I joined friends last night for a few beers and we then moved downstairs for food. I chose the Parsley and parmesan crusted hake main and it was absolutely amazing. The hake was cooked to perfection. A big shout out to the staff as well.

Fantastic for a gourmet lunch at non-michellin prices. We tried some classics and more modern options and all we're actually some of the best food I've ever had. Loved the vibe, would highly recommend for those visiting the Kelvingrove and Hunterian.

Not your average menu - expect the unexpected. Sourced and prepared in styles that reflect various sources around Scotland - expect seafood and spices not typically experienced. Unusual - in a good way - including eclectic wine list from various countries. Enjoyed the variety - good choice!

Went to the restaurant with my family for my birthday which was on a Monday. I had googled the breakfast menu before booking & was keen for the full Scottish breakfast. However, at the restaurant, we were given a limited menu & told the full Scottish is only served at weekends. I chose the Eggs Benedict which was ok but not the best i've had. My husband chose the same but due to his dairy allery, the Hollandaise Sauce was not an option. Having said this, we have been in other restaurants where the kitchen staff have made Hollandaise Sauce for my husband using oil instead of butter. It makes a big difference to the finishing touches of a dish and is inclusive for those with dairy allergies. The meal was nice, but i will definitely choose elsewhere for brunch in future. Lots of alternative choices in the West End with fuller menus.

Beautiful food - an interesting take on Scottish dishes. We shared the small plates and all were perfectly executed. There is a distinct Indian/Asian influence in some dishes and this works really well. Cosy bar downstairs, this is definitely worth a visit.

Myself and 3 friends found a lovely table on Saturday at 5pm, we sat having a variety of drinks and nibbles and were thoroughly enjoying our rare evening out to catch up. At 7.30PM a membe rof the bar staff approached us and seaid that the table was recerved for people coming in at 9PM and we had to leave at 8.45. My friend has a disability and so standing at the bar was not an option. My issue is, why was there not a reserved notic e on the table earlier? why wait until 15 minutes before the other people were due to tell us. I feel this was extremely poor service and also rude as we had by that time spent a substantial amount of money. We left and spent out money elsewhere.

We had a late and leisurely lunch here in December; the food was excellent apart from a very slimy pudding none of us could eat. The waitress told us that it was vegan but that they forgot to put that on the menu and the dairy content we were expecting wasn't in it. That apart, everything good, including the service. Last night we went there simply for a couple of drinks and we won't make that mistake again - lovely staff but only two available behind the bar and first time we waited 15 minutes for drinks, second time the manager finally asked someone to serve us - after a ten minute wait - and third time, after waiting ten minutes again a waitress told us we would have better luck at the other end of the bar, which was absolutely heaving and we couldn't get near service for another ten minutes.Appreciate they're obviously busy and popular, but wouldn't come back just for a drink - need more staff behind the bar.

Encontramos el diseño confuso y el personal excéntrico pero agradable. Parece que se puede comer en lo que parecía ser un área de espera y nos dijeron que nos tomarían una bebida de cortesía mientras esperábamos una mesa; no se ofreció ninguna. El menú del día era de comidas menos comunes y nos decidimos por el 'menú del bar'. 2. 50 extra para la salsa de whisky que realmente debería haber venido con el haggis parecía caro y mi hamburguesa y papas fritas eran de un tamaño y sabor insoportables. La agradable camarera entregó el postre equivocado, que sin embargo valió la pena esperar. En general, mucho dinero por muy poco y el ambiente era muy plano.

This was a joint celebration just after new year for 2 December birthdays and some exam results. We originally booked the downstairs restaurant which is the slightly posher bit but due to low post holiday bookings we were moved to the less formal (very laid-back and relaxed) upstairs mezzanine. Which was fine. The lady serving us was very friendly, helpful and attentive and gave us very good advice on food and drink. She clearly knew her stuff and was passionate about it. The food was utterly delicious and flavourful. All of it. And the four of us all chose different things. My main of hake on dal wth sprout greens was out of this world. Frankly I'd have been happy with just the dal, but I love hake and the well cooked delicate fish was not blown away by the spice of dal but beautifully complemented. Spicy child garlic greens on the side made a fantastic meal. Korean sesame pork starter was delicious but perhaps a little small, whereas the seasonal scallop starter was great in both quantity and quality. The pigeon on the menu had been replaced by partridge that night which was delicious but the accompaniments were understandably a better match for the pigeon . Spicy Mussels and paratha, great too. Puds - great chocolate and cherry combo and a nice tonic bean pannacotta with pistachio and honeycomb. Good rage of Gins, whiskies, cocktails, wines and liqueurs. Go. You won't regret it. We'll be back.

Had dinner with my husband. First had a beer upstairs, how lovely atmosphere, the lights and everything! Dinner was great. First we had Stravaigin’s own haggis. Never have had haggis before. It was so good! Then we had cracking turkey dinner. The portion was full of flavors and surely big enough to make us satisfied. As desert I had dark chocolate parfait. Lovely! The restaurant was atmospheric and the staff was super helpfull and friendly.

Took friends from Berlin, Prague and Leipzig to what is probably the best remaining reasonable boozer in Woodlands. Downstairs you will likely find old skool west end types who wrote several episodes of Tenko and Z cars before you were born. Upstairs you will find live music and a much younger LGBTQ friendly crowd. Great to see things like Augustiner on sale. Friends were impressed and still mention the place!
