The Hebridean in Glasgow City

I've eaten here a few times and had some great meals so was looking forward to a Sunday Roast collected from the Loveable Rogue (their new name). In the past, the meat has been delicious, perfectly seasoned and served with outstanding sides. All I can say is that I am glad I was at home, as having to put food back on the plate is fairly unattractive but the beef was so gristly that neither of us could actually eat it. It was over salted as well, which didn't help. Had we been in the restaurant then I am sure that we would have had that taken into consideration when it was time for the bill. As we had collected it, all we got was a 'sorry it was not good, we have let the kitchen know' email. Apparently they are using the same supplier and cut as we have had in the past - hence the hit and miss title. There are loads of places doing Sunday Roast now, both part time sit in and take away. With chances to experience hospitality being limited just now, I think I will take my chances and my money elsewhere...

Visité el restaurante el fin de semana. Nuestra comida era muy buena y bien presentada y el personal de guardia era muy amable, acogedor y atento. La mayor decepción de la noche fue el hecho de que sentimos que el restaurante no era tan seguro como debería haber sido. El personal no llevaba máscaras ni viseras, lo que nos hizo sentir un poco incómodos y el distanciamiento social en la pequeña zona del bar fue difícil con mesas muy juntas.

No teníamos reserva y nos recibieron con una cálida y cordial bienvenida y un servidor atento. Compartimos bocadillos de aceitunas y haggis y platos principales de pato y filete de cerdo. La comida estaba muy bien presentada y los sabores se complementaban entre sí. El único comentario negativo es que el pato era un poco masticable. Las porciones eran pequeñas pero bien equilibradas. Suficiente para mí, pero probablemente no lo suficiente para alguien con un gran apetito que podría necesitar una guarnición. No comimos postre. La factura total fue de alrededor de 70 por 2 bocadillos compartidos, 2 platos principales y 3 bebidas. Bastante caro, pero en general fue una experiencia maravillosa.

Pensé mucho en dejar esta revisión ya que el personal de recepción fue excelente. Reservé el almuerzo del domingo ya que lo he disfrutado antes. El restaurante era como una cuchara grasienta debido al olor de las freidoras y nuestros ojos estaban pellizcando hasta que la puerta principal quedó abierta. el rosbif estaba delicioso, pero los budines de Yorkshire (que el chef nos escuchó decir que no eran comestibles) podrían haber hundido un acorazado. Las patatas y las verduras estaban aromatizadas con ajo, excepto la chirivía que estaba deliciosa. El lado de coliflor y brócoli se sirvió en una salsa sin sabor. La mesa de al lado también se quejó de los yorkies. Si no fuera por el hecho de que estaba con mi familia y que el personal de la recepción estaba tan obviamente avergonzado e hizo un trabajo excelente, habría pedido ver al gerente. Habiendo pagado más de 100 por la comida, solo puedo decir que si este es el estándar en el futuro, entonces no regresaré.

Nos recibió en la puerta un maître muy agradable que nos llevó a una mesa. Nos presentaron a una persona de mesa realmente agradable y muy amigable. y tan atento. Ofreció agua de inmediato y luego un "refrigerio". Pan de masa madre con mantequilla y aceitunas mixtas. Optamos por la cena asada. No decepcionado. Volveremos a recorrer el menú.

The family and I went in for a dinner. The manager was very rude and insisted we needed to all order main meals and were not allowed to share. Overall the experience was unfriendly and expensive.

Reservation on a Friday night was a good choice for this busy, popular restaurant that has been re-branded. Part of the excellent growing Nico brand we enjoyed good service, wines and food. I really enjoyed the venison wellington pie.

Fine - not fabulous, ok it was an Itison luncheon deal for £16.00 The deal was for either Hebridean Burger or Mussels - as with these voucher deals, they are clever and give you an Itison menu with bolt ons, whilst no one should be complelled to buy, its a bit awkward not to.. Anyway £4.50 for 2, yes 2 Oysters & £3.50 for sourdough bread with whipped butter - followed by The Hebridean Burger - which was fairly substantial & well served & the other party had best described as a small portion of Mussels - possibly best compared to a starter portion, whilst plump and in a tasty garlic bisque, I was well finished ahead of tge moll & dhe can hoover down food. It was allright, would I rush back, possibly not, there are equally as good if not better establishments that aren’t as portion controlled obsessive.

Visited here on Saturday after having a bottle of wine in bar brett just down the road there was live music which was absolutely fantastic and added to the lovely atmosphere the food itself was the stand out here I had the special scallop with celeriac truffle foam my partner had the crab ravioli with the burnt orange with an amazing sauce mains we had venison Wellington which was cooked to perfection and lamb which was also delicious the lamb belly was packed with flavour then to end the meal sticky toffee pudding and a honey parfait which just end the whole experience wonderfully cant fault any price of the establishment the staff were fantastic the food exquisite cant say no more excellent things about the place will definitely be back.

As I'm new to trip advisor this review is very well deserved ,I only joined to put a review on the hebridean I visited this lovely restaurant with a voucher I recieved for my birthday,on arrival myself and my partner where greeted by a lovely staff member she was very pleasant, where we where taken to a cosy bar area where we recieved a complimentary glass of prosecco as it was my birthday (nice touch).we where given a nice booth table which was lovely considering it was on a busy friday night, we both went for a la carte menu, starters I had the smokies,my partner had smoked trout the flavours where on point and quality was very good , main course I had halibat partner had venison Wellington which was cooked to perfection, halibat was perfect served beautifully,deserts we shared the parfait then had a lovely selection of scottish cheese where the staff reccomended wine to compliment the cheese board This restaurant is a gem I highly reccomend it from the staff and beautiful food & wine ,it deserves 5 star rating and cannot wait to visit again.

Sunday lunch with the family, we all went for the 3 course Sunday roast. The beef was cooked to perfection also was the veg but the sauce was to die for, not forgetting the haggis to start which was full of flavour. I had the sticky toffee with just the right amount of sauce to soak it up. The staff were great too really friendly, the manager with the blue eyes was just lovely didn't catch her name. Will definitely by back for the roast.

Visited here while visiting daughter and boyfriend in Glasgow. We were recommended this by friends. Lovey atmosphere and attentive but not over the top staff. Was going to give 4 stars as there was 6 of us and only 5 meals brought out and 1 had to wait, slightly annoying but there you go. Food was lovely and a very good serving. When bill was presented they did not charge for the late meal, just so you know we did not complain about the late meal. Would def recommend and would definitely go again if in area.

Quite expensive menu so we chose from the pub menu which was a bit cheaper. Pie of the day was described as cottage pie but it came in a dish with puff pastry as opposed to potato...the filling was tasty but not much of it. Husband had the venison burger which came with small side of skinny fries Staff were attentive and helpful but based on the food we had and the bar prices (£10.50 for a large glass of red wine) not sure I'll be hurrying back.

Delicious Sunday roast that I highly recommend. Everything cooked to perfection. And great value. The celeriac and apple soup a lovely starter. The roast beef and veg delicious. And the sticky toffee pudding a dream. Great meal .

I am glad I didn't read all the not-so-great reviews before choosing to visit The Hebridean because it may have put me off and I and my family would have missed out on a great evening! I have kept up to date with this restaurant on social media and I like how they are passionate about their food and how they are also passionate about creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere within the restaurant. We were not disappointed when we dined here on a Saturday evening. It was busy, nice welcoming decor, friendly staff and live music which added a special touch. There was a wait for the first course to arrive but we didn't mind because we had our drinks and were enjoying the atmosphere. We saw chef Nico himself wandering around the restaurant and kitchen checking on things and having a chat with some tables. I'm sure he's a busy man with all his other establishments so it was nice to see him checking in on The Hebridean. The food was lovely. For me, it is good pub grub with a refined touch. Which I am assuming is the aim with it being a gastropub. The haggis starter was absolutely delicious. The mains were lovely. Some of our party had a pie and they said it was very tasty and not too filling. I tried some of the pastry which was lovely and light and crisp. On looking at the dish though I would suggest it be presented differently, with some sort of gravy. It's a little odd how it comes in its oven dish without sides unless ordered separately. It looks kind of daunting but luckily the members of my family enjoyed it nonetheless. The fish and lamb dishes went down a treat also; nothing left on the plate. To our delight we all had room for dessert. The sticky date pudding was a delight in itself. Really homely and sweet. Overall we had a lovely evening and I think we get what it is all about and aiming to be. I will return for sure and continue to follow on social media to see what their upcoming dishes are like!

Visited Sunday 5pm with family , food and service excellent. Only negative is 3 menus to choose from . Really enjoyed our visit.

Fantastic food. Great service. It was a perfect atmosphere for a quiet meal with my husband. Good quality of food. I enjoyed the extra option of a "snack" as well as starter! The portion sizes were perfect so I managed to eat all my food...

Overall a little bit of a mixed bag, and certainly not anything like the standard of service from 111 at Nico. Slightly disappointing in that there was no seaweed starter that evening, and not much apologise about it from the staff, when we ordered butter...

We went for Sunday Lunch today. Fantastic! Starters of haggis or Arbroath smokie croquettes for us. Both very very good. Then we both had roast beef. What a plate - lovely beef, Yorkshire Pudding , roast potatoes, carrots, parsnips, cauliflower, cabbage and jus. Brilliant. Highly...

First visit to the Hebridean for a while but unfortunately it hasn’t changed. A confusing place - three different menus, have to ask to receive vegetarian list, served pub food but you can’t buy a pint. Drinks and food overpriced. Nice staff but will not...

Been here a few times and it continues to deliver. Consistently good. Great flavours and ingredients. Lovely staff and a welcoming/buzzy vibe to the restaurant. Amazed by some of the negative reviews below. It is not over priced in any way. These are prime ingredients...

I’ve been 3 times in the last 6 weeks or so and so far everyone has been really pleased with every dish. Food is tremendous - menus are limited but it is possible to choose dishes from two separate menus and the staff are very...

Admittedly and upfront, we did not get to taste the food, as we didn't get beyond trying to order, but I wanted to share this experience - it was pretty awful. My son and I were in Glasgow last week from Chicago and wanted to...

We visited on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. We initially were seated right in front of the kitchen which was very noisy with music playing loudly made conversation difficult especially as members of the party were hard of hearing. We asked to move and were...

We had dinner here (early evening). Restaurant was busy but rather dark. The lighting over our table was poor. The service was efficient and pleasant. My Haggis, Neeps, Tatties starter was good however my venison burger was cold as was the onion topping. The skinny...

Love the concept with the connections to the Islands. The decor is beautiful and the atmosphere lovely and relaxed. The service isn’t as good as it should and certainly not a patch on what we have experienced in other restaurants owned by Six by Nico....

First visit to The Hebridean and opted for the set Xmas Lunch menu. Choice if four dishes for each of the three course lunch and both of us went fishy - smoked trout and mussels starter followed by coley. Everything well cooked and mega tasty....

10 of us visited on a Saturday late afternoon. Table not ready in time (c25 minutes late). Given a glass of prosecco each as an apology. Ordered lamb loin and breast main for £23 - when it arrived this consisted of 2 very small chunks...

Enticed by the offer of 'all you can eat' mussels, we found ourselves at the Hebridean on a wet Wednesday night. The place had been on our list for a while and so it was a nice unexpected surprise to be there, courtesy of a...

Had a very pleasant experience at The Hebridean at lunchtime today. Cheerful service and good food. Portions were substantial and very tasty. It wasn’t crowded and the table by the window was very well placed. I will certainly be visiting the place again.

Great food, cozy atmosphere, attentive staff. Was a bit nervous about going due to mixed reviews but did not disappoint! Had Arbroath Smokie croquettes and then beef cheek pie. Both delicious and presented beautifully! Only minor (slightly unusual) complaint would be that the food came...

The venue is delightful and the food and service were generally very good. We thoroughly enjoyed the mussels and the ox cheek pie. The martini was exactly as dry as ordered. Nice choice of wines by the glass. The pudding ( sticky toffee ) was...

Very disappointing lunch, we ordered monkfish scampi, after a few bites, I felt unsure if it was fully cooked as the fish was translucent and stringy in texture and luke warm despite the batter being very hot. We sent them back but got told it...

Good service and lovely interior but don’t go for the food which is basic and small portions. If you can’t get a soup and mussels dish to taste good then there is a problem you need to address... We went early Saturday evening: my pea...

We chose the Sunday Roast lunch [ 2 courses £20 / 3 courses £23], we have eaten in a couple of other Nico restaurants so had high hopes for the roast Starters : HAGGIS NEEPS & TATTIES [Housemade, Toasted Oats, Islay Whisky Sauce] & ARBROATH...

Now been a few times. Service good. Food above average but boring unchanging vegetarian menu when accompanying meat and fish eating friends. It doesn't seem to have changed in months despite me suggesting it each time. Mushroom and leek pie,battered cauliflower and chips and macaroni...

Stopped in here Saturday afternoon. Hadn’t booked but found us a table for two in the bar. Nice atmosphere service was excellent. Food good quality but not cheap. Yes the chicken pie was big but some mash or veg should be included for the price....

We visited here on a Saturday at about 5 o'clock. The restaurant was quite quiet when we arrived. I really like the decor of the restaurant and it has a nice relaxed atmosphere even as it got busier. We both ordered a pie- chicken &...

We visited again last Friday for dinner with friends. Food continues to be excellent and service has improved since last visit but still work to be done. Overall - expensive night but would definitely recommend.

My husband and I decided to go for dinner after hearing a lot about the place. Living up north in Scotland we were curious to try The Hebridean and so glad we did! Right from the moment you enter, you are greeted with a smile...

the food in here was delicious. I had lamb cooked to perfection . The staff were very attentive without being overpowering and very well mannered and articulate. I will be back soon.

With another couples my wife and I had a most enjoyable dinner in this restaurant last Saturday evening. We were well served and look after by all the staffs including Sarah the manager the whole evening. A very relaxing environment well design and decorated space...

If restaurants could be reviewed purely on the food then The Hebridean would be 5/5. The Sunday Roast that we experienced was absolutely sublime. Unfortunately the overall service was pretty poor. The waiting staff seemed in a rush to take both our drink and food...

Great food, great staff, great atmosphere. Really a great restaurant, one of the nicest places I've eaten in.

as a great fan of six and 111 by Nico we finally got in for lunch a a party of three today, snacks and starts were great as wed expected but sadly the mains were just not great, very salty, the 2 pies, chicken and...

Great food if you're craving something hearty, we all had the pies and they were great! You have to order sides separately but the pies are very generous on their own! Reasonable pricing and a great drinks selection - the true essence of Scotland.

Visited Saturday evening - you need to book. The menu varied from simple pies to venison wellington all were enjoyed by members of our party. Staff were very attentive, at the price they charge for the drinks, they need to be! Atmosphere was great with...

Really wanted to try here, based on great food and service at other chains by the same group in Glasgow and Edinburgh... sadly disappointed. Tables close together, staff and other diners walking right past your table, pretty much on top of your food. Unbearably warm...

Four of us dined at The Hebridean on a September Friday night. A busy and bustling venue with live music, we were impressed from the outset by the great atmosphere. Having initially had to wait at the bar for a table, in only 5 minutes...

I really wanted to like this place, being a big fan of the other Nico restaurants. Sadly, the overwhelming flavour of all the food was salt. I had curried cod special which was nice enough. The waiter told us there was a change to this...

Very nice family Sunday roast here. Lovely nice touches like extra jug of gravy and cauliflower cheese on the side. Yorkshire pudding was excellent. Beef was slightly over done, but we were very late in for lunch. Starter of Haggis Neeps and Tatties also very...

After a mix-up with the drinks order things settled down nicely. Great Sunday roast for most of our party but a couple went a la cartes. Everything cooked well and presented beautifully. Young energetic staff team were zipping around keeping a very busy restaurant ticking...

We visited the Hebridean for Sunday dinner with some friends after having dined at sister restaurant 6 by nico, which we loved. We ordered starters of olives and sourdough bread, haggis and mussels. All the starters were delicious. We then had the Sunday Roasts and...

Had a dinner here recently. Was hoping for something quite lovely and spectacular but food was just ok. I had the chicken Caesar salad. The pancetta was a little on the tough/very crispy side. Chicken and anchovy was lovely. Fries were lovely. My friend knew...

4 of us went and we all shared the starters which were very enjoyable. One of us had the beefburger, he wasn't keen on all the garnish, his taste, should have asked for them to be removed... 2 had fish and chips, plenty of fish...

Sunday roast beef chewy and overcooked! Nothing else to say other than if Six by Nico want to uphold their own reputation, this needs to be sorted fast!

A visit on Saturday Lunch time My wife had flat iron steak whilst I had Mussels in white wine and cream. Both dishes were good and taste. For drinks we had Fresh Orange and Lemonade £2.20 and a large glass of Italian Red £9. Total...

I’ve never been a big fan of the small plates palaver . So I was pleased to see that this place has had a makeover, essentially into a gastropub . Went for Sunday lunch and had a great time . Superb burger and a generous...

Came here a few days after it opened and it was incredible. This time the recipe for the steak pie seemed altered and wasn’t as good, the scampi was tough but the dessert was still nice. Also, they don’t combine vegetarian and meat menus which...

We were so excited to visit this new venue. The decor, ambience and staff are great. However the food was sadly lacking. As a previous poster described my monk fish scampi was bland and chewy. I followed this up with fish and chips and again...

Our first eagerly awaited opportunity to sample food by Nico. We arrived but there was a problem with our booking however the manager and her staff sorted a table out promptly and without fuss. The menu was tempting and well described by our waiter. My...

Great food, service and ambiance at a reasonable price. We had been before on opening night just before Christmas and I wanted to try it again on my return to Glasgow. Between us we tried a lot of the menu- the seaweed and olive and...

As common visitors to 111 and Six by Nico we were excited to try the Hebridean and we’re definitely not disappointed! The menu includes a good selection of pub favourites with the Nico twist we all know and love. Definitely worth a visit for all...

Went with friends for lunch and it was average. Nothing great to right home about. The waitress was very hard to understand and there seemed to be a lack of communication between her and other waiting staff. It's not overly expensive and what we got...

We visited here for Sunday lunch as we were in Glasgow for the day and had previously had a positive experience at Six by Nico in Edinburgh. This new format seems to work well. We enjoyed the Sunday Roast menu, the portions were good (apart...

I visited for my partners birthday and had booked ahead. We were given a great seat by the window and a complimentary glass of bubbles which was lovely. The decor and layout is fantastic. The map style menu is also a nice touch. Supporting local...

As regular visitors to 111 by Nico and been to 6 by Nico and Public House we were expecting great food. We were not disappointed. The menu choices are good and there was a specials board but much less on it than is shown on...

Wow. Where to start. Lovely place, covered in glorious Harris Tweed..and a very nice vibe. Staff- great. Our waitress was very funny and chatty ( not overly..which I hate). Perfect service! Food- I had the pate to start. Outstanding. Really!! . The relish was amazing!!...

I live near this place and had heard all the hype and build up to the opening. I have been twice and both times were a disappointing experience. I decided to give it a second go, thinking it might have "newly opened teething problems" -...

The food is good but overpriced. Staff were attentive, sort of, but seemed rather unengaged and distant: “if you want to know the price of the specials it’s in my pocket and i could check”. Waitress unable to and not very interested in answering questions...

I loved Public House and was intrigued to know how Nico could improve the concept. We went for our anniversary and were not disappointed, great service and great food! I had the pig's head and black pudding starter and the steak pie - absolutely stuffed!...

Our party of six came here for a birthday Sunday lunch and were all agreed that we had enjoyed the food and service. The noise and long table configuration made it difficult for it to be a totally inclusive experience and our waitress had to...

Visited with a few friends and immediately all commented on the friendly atmosphere and warm setting. However, this is where the compliments, i’m Afraid end. The menu is extremely limited and before ordering food, not overpriced. However, upon being served food, you really notice how...

Have been wanting to try here since it opened and after a late phone call on a Friday they managed to get us a seat in the bar area on a busy Friday night. Had been in contract with them previously as my wife is...

As a fan of Nico’s first restaurant I was looking forward to a new venue - however left with a feeling of disappointment. I had assumed from the restaurant’s name that it would feature mainly fresh fish and seafood but it didn’t. The menu is...

2 course Sunday lunch and 2 drink plus bread and butter £52. If you're expected to be blown away, I am sorry to disappoint. My beef was cold and 1/3 fat, soggy roast potatoes but dry in the middle, almost like they'd been in the...
