The Prancing Stag in Glasgow City

We were out for a family celebration and I cannot praise the staff enough they were absolutely fantastic, so helpful and friendly. The food was delicious and the whole evening a great success. I would thoroughly recommend this fabulous restaurant.

We booked this place to celebrate our sister’s 80th birthday. 6 people of ‘a certain age’ for dinner. Unfortunately she has developed metastatic cancer, and was in hospital in the lead up to the day. The restaurant staff could not have been more helpful, sympathetic and kind, helping her to access the dining room, making sure she was comfortable, and then serving up a delicious dinner for us all. The food was wonderful, we ate the fish (ling with a fabulous salsa verde) and the pork with mustard mash, delicious. The starters were all great too. We would highly recommend this restaurant, its great food, and its young enthusiastic and friendly staff. Hats off to them!

Game and wine tasting menu absolutely superb cannot recommend this hidden gem enough. Food and service always outstanding 👌

One of the very best meals I had while traveling the UK, over 1200 miles driving. Authentic Scottish food topped off with 12 year old Dalmore for desert. If you have the opportunity to eat here, make sure you do not pass the opportunity up. Worth every penny/pence!

Llevábamos un tiempo queriendo probar aquí, así que cuando lo vimos venir en Itison aprovechamos la oportunidad. El menú de Itison tenía muchas opciones encantadoras, solo elegir dos es la decisión más difícil que he tomado en mucho tiempo. Comí la ensalada de remolacha y queso de cabra que estaba tan fresca y rebosante de sabor. El risotto de setas era perfecto. Lleno de sabor y agradable y cremoso. Las papas fritas parmesanas fueron un buen toque. Preciosa carta de vinos y una buena selección de cócteles. Nunca tuvimos postre, pero había una buena variedad para elegir junto con una buena selección de queso. Gracias a Rory y al equipo por hacer nuestra primera visita tan agradable. ¡Fue nuestra primera visita, pero no será la última!

We had a fantastic evening at the Prancing Stag. Have been on a few occasions and it never disappoints. The food is delicious and really well presented and the staff are so friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend.

Hidden gem. Was there with some friends and we all agreed it's just fantastic!

Compré un vale de 2 platos para este restaurante que pensé que sería bueno para el almuerzo de cumpleaños de mi marido. Estaba bastante tranquilo cuando entramos, a pesar de que era un sábado a la hora del almuerzo. Pero era un restaurante encantador y ambos disfrutamos de nuestras comidas. Particularmente disfruté mi entrante de pudín negro y huevo crujiente, me pareció delicioso. Compartimos una botella de vino tinto también y tuve una copa de sauterne para terminar - siempre una señal de un buen restaurante si tienen sauterne en el menú! Espero volver de nuevo para otra comida encantadora.

Had a fabulous lunch here today. Staff were fantastic, attentive but not hovering over you. Food was fabulous, beautifully presented. Market menu great value for money. First time visit, will definitely be back.

Sat outside on late summer day, but even if it rains, there is a clear roof fitted, so very pleasant. Attentive and professional service from staff member looking after us. Nothing was too much trouble and it can be a challenge with my dietary requirements (low fat). He had a great knowledge of how chef puts together dishes. Food was superb - steak is rare occasion for us, but definitely worth it here - the server even arranged a lower fat jus to accompany mine, instead of the creamy peppercorn sauce. If you haven't already, check this wee gem out. 4 stars for atmosphere as would be good if there was background music.

Tucked away in the west end close to Jordanhill Station this is an absolute gem of a place. A lovely outdoors seating area for drinks and inside is cosy. Market menu is great value for money with plenty of choice. I visited with friends and we all thought the quality of food was exceptional. Staff were very professional, polite and knowledgable. What a great night- will def be back.

Excellent restaurant. Food, ambience, service all amazing. Great awareness of dietary needs. I am coeliac and had a delicious complementary warm gluten free roll with hummus to start. All dishes are marked if GF and many can be adapted to suit. I have visited before with friends for lunch and went with my husband for dinner this time and he loved it too. Will definitely be back.

We had an itison voucher for 2 courses. Good selection on the fixed menu. Lovely wine selection. We had a bottle of Grenache blanc. Hubby had black pudding with egg then chicken Kiev. I had tomato and basil soup then mushroom risotto. All fresh and tasty. Also had chia seed rolls with truffle and honey butter and whipped feta. It has a wee car park at the rear if required we walked. Will be back as hubby wants to try the scallops then then venison.

First visit but wouldn't be the last. The food and service were superb. Handily located to transport links

Hidden in plain sight right beside the train station, a delightful and informal restaurant. You can sit indoors or, weather permitting, in the Sitooterie, both of which have a quaint and authentic charm about them. The food is excellent- there were 4 of us so we ordered 4 different dishes to get a taste of each. All were delicious. Desserts were fabulous and we also had a cheeseboard. The service was excellent too. Attentive but not intrusive, and good knowledge of wine and pairings with food. We will definitely go back.

This is a fantastic restaurant, well worth several visits, the food was fantastic.

Another Outstanding Meal Today. Every Course Was Delicious 😋

Lovely hidden gem with beautiful food and wonderful service! The plates and atmosphere were lovely. Can't stop thinking about the asparagus starter.

Food was exquisitely tasty and well presented. Olives, Lamb starter and Cairngorm Roe Deer stood out. Scottish produce, Smallish portion sizes. Pleasant and unobtrusive service. Chill atmosphere, out the way. Reasonable price for quality. Good experience overall.

What a lovely find. Such a pleasant and professional young man greeted us on arrival, and his follow through on every aspect of the menu and wine was exceptional. A lovely menu! Lots of variety. Our party of four sampled the wonderful black pudding starter, and oyster mushroom starter and the sea bass as a main was such a hit! Dessert … didn’t disappoint, ice cream /coffee speciality, Etom mess and sticky toffee pudding. 🙌 We would highly recommend and certainly if we return again to the area we will be back.

Loved the food there and such great value. Waitress was very good. Shame about the car park - someone scratched the side of my car while I was having my meal.

An absolutely fabulous meal. The food was exceptional cooked to a very high standard with a lot of flair.The service was lovely. Will definitely be back .

Just moved to Jordanhill and went here for dinner for the first time on Saturday. Absolutely fabulous food and the loveliest staff - I can see us being regulars!

Lovely lunch, good food. It was very quiet when we visited, but the restaurant was small enough to make it feel like a private dining experience. 😅

I booked for a party of 6, Sunday lunch/ early dinner. Information on the website stated that the set menu was the only option on a Sunday as last orders are at 5pm . On arrival we were informed that this is not the case. They have changed it so that the set menu is only available till 2.30 pm, a la carte after that. . Not good to mislead in this way. They should update their website so people can make an informed choice on whether or not to book. Food was mostly tasty, however I don’t think I’ll be rushing back. The experience was disappointing.

Visited for the 2nd year in a row for our works Christmas dinner. Food was excellent again and service top notch. Highly recommend this place.

Returned recently for Sunday lunch, my previous visit was over 2 years ago. Food was unbelievable - delicious, well presented and very well priced! Service friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!

A very nice meal. Excellent food and very attentive service. The venison cooked to perfection, the chocolate delice to die for, and a very good selection of cheeses.

Nice birthday meal. Food was great.

We are here fairly often and never fail to be impressed by all aspects of this tucked away west end restaurant. The January menu is just an excellent mix of wintery things so well balanced, each course flavoursome and beautifully cooked. Our venison was so tender and the apple crepe was, well, so 'appley'. Service is always friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. We were trying to compare The Prancing Stag with similar type restaurants in the west end and our main suggestion is No. 16 in Byres Road, an accolade in itself. Just hope the place is sustainable in such times!!

There were 5 of us here for our Hogmanay dinner and every dish we ordered was absolutely wonderful ! We don't know how the chef thinks up a menu which is quite different to other restaurants and has flavours which we just loved ! It was their Festive Menu and was great value. The service we got from Rory and Przemek was, as always, first class. They are both so friendly. Looking forward to our next visit.

I visited for the Christmas lunch menu in a party of 5 people recently and was delighted with the quality of food, excellent service and value for money. A local gem, I’ll definitely return soon.

I can't rate this family run restaurant in the westend of Glasgow highly enough. Scottish produce cooked to perfection. The service is unobtrusive but attentive. And a delight to enjoy the first glass Beaujolais Nouveau 2023. Thank you

Lovely restaurant hidden away. Food was excellent, service was lovely, my partners steak was cooked perfectly and my beef shin was so tender with tasty truffle mash and beautifully cooked veg. Only criticism is that it’s hard to find, tucked away behind a row of shops, maybe slightly better signage on the main road somewhere? Will definitely be back.

Don’t be put off on the location! Short taxi ride from the city, well worth it Lovely small intimate restaurant with just enough space between the tables food was top notch and beautifully presented and good value for money Will be returning

A real culinary experience! Locally sourced product prepared and served with pride. Highly recommend!

Thoroughly enjoyable dinner. Excellent quality. Well thought out dishes and great service.

Limited but interestng and well cooked menu. Excellent service.

We were visiting the area to watch our hometown rugby team play against GHK, whose ground is nearby, and made an advance reservation for lunch at The Prancing Stag which was highly rated on TA. It doesn’t win any awards for chic surroundings tucked behind and above a row of commercial properties on a very busy road. However it does have a car park. On arrival we were the only customers and only a handful of others followed so it was lacking in ambiance for a Saturday lunchtime. There is a dining area outside however we chose to eat indoors which is up a stairway. Our server was pleasant and clarified some items on the menu before bringing our drinks - a glass of diet Irn Bru (£3.30 - really!) and a gin & tonic (£6.80). He also brought us a couple of warm mini rolls served with truffle butter and olive dip which were very good - and complimentary! For starters my wife had bruschetta from the Market Menu (2 courses for £18) and I had Stornoway Black Pudding (£7.95). The bruschetta was disappointing on both counts of appearance and taste. I enjoyed the black pudding which was on toasted brioche topped with a hen’s egg. For mains my wife had chosen Coley with pesto salsa sauce, the latter provided by the chef as an alternative to a cream sauce which she can have intolerance issues with sometimes. She enjoyed this well presented fish dish. I had Chicken on a bed of celeriac stuffed with haggis and served with vegetables (£17.95). I’ve tasted juicier chicken but overall I thought my mains was quite good. To finish my wife had Sticky Toffee Pudding with ice cream (£5.00) and I had Poached Peach served on toasted panettone with ice cream (£8.00). The sticky pudding was apparently a bit “overdone” but got an overall vote of being nice. My dessert was a bit dry but otherwise tasted okay. A bit of a mixed review overall and our expectations were a little dashed - similarly for our rugby team too who lost their match! Oh well, you can’t win them all.

Exceptional flavours, tasty wines and all the little thoughtful special touches, always makes the dining experience at The Prancing Stag a really reliably outstanding experience. Can not recommend highly enough.

במראה ראשון המקום נראה פשוט, אבל שזה לא יבלבל אתכם, זאת מסעדה מצויינת באווירה ביתית וחמימה. השירות מקצועי ואדיב מאוד, האוכל מוקפד מאוד, טעים ומיוחד מאוד. אנחנו אכלנו מרק סלרי מעולה, דג הליבוט עם לבבות ארטישוק ואצות שהיה מושלם. המלצה על בירה מקומית שהיתה מושלמת וגם מנה אחרונה כיפית וקלילה. בקיצור, מסעדה נהדרת ומומלצת מאוד.

Excellent food, service and general all round experience. Highly recommend

Fantastic meal at The Prancing Stag which never ever disappoints. I had an old friend come up from London who was blown away by the tasty Scottish sourced food. It was great to see every table booked on Friday night.... so make sure you book.

Really surpassed my expectations of a neighbourhood restaurant. The food was delicious and quite inventive. Definitely nothing you would make at home!

The food was amazing and the service was outstanding! Five stars for dinner! Can't wait to bring family here.

My husband and I got married in the Fort William, Scotland area (all the way from Florida, USA) and had the Prancing Stag cater our reception dinner. The food was so AMAZING! We had a three course meal that many of our guests raved as the best food they had in Scotland. The Prancing Stag provided vegan options (just the smell of the curry made your mouth water!) and meat options (the chicken was moist and full of flavor!), amazing appetizers and canapés, and some delicious desert options. It was truly a first class meal for a very fair price. My husband and I opted to try all the options (we didn’t want to miss out) and absolutely loved them all. Rory (who runs the restaurant) and Chef Jerry were there working hard to ensure everything went off without a hitch. We can’t thank you enough for making our special day so amazing for us and our 42 American guests! And we can’t wait for our next trip to Scotland—we will definitely make a point to enjoy more incredible Scottish cuisine at the Prancing Stag!!

We had a wedding catered by Rory's and couldn't have been more pleased. The food was excellent and the event was well organized from start to finish. Staff were courteous and efficient and all of the guests were very complimentary. We would recommend Rory's without hesitation.

50th birthday treat, wow wow wow, fine dining and great service. It’s a hidden gem in a great location.

Multiple different dishes tasted during this visit including appetizers of octopus, pigeon, mushrooms, crab. Mains of Guinea fowl, monkfish, beef and lamb Reviews were all above average, but still highly variable Decor very bland, but service very good I would go back

The service was first class & the cocktail and meals were delicious. We'd been recommended this place by a friend who kindly gave us a gift voucher to try it out. We'll definitely return! R & J.

Do not be fooled by the location or entrance to this wonderful restaurant. This is truly a hidden city gem! Went for my husband's birthday and it was wonderful. Great food, great chef who cared about the food, great ambience, great staff, great owner who really cared about his customers. Excellent.

Food was excellent but disappointed in the portion size of 'fish of the day'. It was red mullet & I would have expected a reasonable sized fillet - what I was presented with was 3 50p sized pieces of fish! More suitable as a starter. I would have been happier paying slightly more to to get a a decent piece of fish.

The food here was genuinely very nice and very well prepared, having said that the portions sized were ridiculously small. I had the lamb roulafe which came with a single small potato and a single bit of tender stem broccoli. There was only 1 option for vegan/vegetarians for starter or main so a very limited menu. The staff were nice, very friendly and efficient. There were 5 of us in total and we had a small booth like which was nice and quite private but there was no fan or anything so it was absolutely roasting right the way through. Overall a nice meal but given the portion size vs cost I would not recommend it u less that's what you're looking for.

Hadn't been here for ages, but it's still a nice place for dinner, and on Thursday evening it was pretty quiet, we got without a reservation. The special was pan-fried trout, and it was delicious. For dessert, I had a gluten-free chocolate number that was a goodly sized portion. I almost couldn't finish it as it was quite rich, but I manfully struggled through to the end. 😄

Brilliant food yet again! Back soon!

We had an exceptional meal: we started with tiny hot sesame topped rolls with chilli butter and a delicious but indescribable dip, then moved on to cured and torched mackerel and crispy ox tongue with pickled walnuts. Our mains were sublime lamb with even sublimer salt baked turnip and a seafood plate with warm spices. We drank a Romanian Malbec and a non alcoholic Seedlip cocktail. We felt our ideas about what’s good to eat were expanded and we will try to cook some of these things at home. The setting was unpretentious with easy parking. Staff were charming.

Spectacular food! Very small place and kinda charming. Not crowded. Fantastic secret find. Surprised not larger/fancier.... Just a matter of time for word to spread more. One of best dinners of my life! (Seriously)

Great Scottish menu with excellent food and presentation fine dining without the pomp and ceremony. Staff knew the dishes well, wines were well priced and with its own car park and a railway station its just perfect!

Delicious food and friendly, attentive service. Highly recommend.

I have chosen this place for my birthday lunch based on the good reviews and I have to say it didn't disappoint a bit. The staff was so gentle and every dish was so tasty.

Brilliant restaurant. Helpful and friendly staff. I would recommend.

A nice airy restaurant with a warm welcome. The food here was fantastic well thought out and well cooked. Classic presentation with a modern twist. In these days it was a pleasure to eat in a restaurant that provide a proper plate of food rather...

First visit but definitely not our last, food and service was excellent. We were on the market menu which was good value.

What an amazing find. Tucked away behind shops on Crow Road, Jordanhill. This restaurant deserves a 5 star review. My friend took me here for my birthday. The menu tho’ not extensive, offered a good seasonal choice. We opted for the 3 course set lunch menu, & each course was delicious. Mini hot rolls were brought to our table as soon as we were seated. The staff were delightful & attentive without being too intrusive. The member of staff had a good knowledge of their wine…we opted for a pale Rose which was perfect. Must give a mention to the Chef for the amazing food. Will definitely be back.

Stumbled upon the Prancing Stag during a lockdown walk, then I started following on Social media where I first saw the delicious, well presented meals on offer. When they were back open after lock down we booked a table and we were not disappointed. Staff were great and their knowledge of wines that would complement the chosen meals was perfect. We've been back 2 further times and have loved every meal. The food is cooked to perfection, high quality, very tasty and well presented. Can highly recommend the Prancing Stag and I'll definitely be back again soon for another delicious meal. Would recommend booking to avoid disappointment.

Fantastic food, helpful staff and a great atmosphere. Will definitely be going again!

We got a voucher for Christmas for the Prancing Stag so went along on a Saturday night. Having recently used a voucher in 6 by Nico on the Southside we were a bit unenthusiastic as that place was terrible but I’m glad to say the...

Just had a lovely, relaxed Saturday lunch. Want to thank @the prancing stag, Lucy and Adam for their wonderful service. Understated, comfortable and very enjoyable.

Had family celebration dinner here. Outstanding food, excellent service and lovely vibe. Will definately return.

Very cozy atmosphere , great wine and beer list and fantastic food and service, would recommend over and over

We booked out the full restaurant for a private dinner. From the outset, the communication from who I took to be the proprietor, was conscise and professional, taking into account all of our requests with ease. On the evening, the restaurant was laid out superbly...

Had an excellent meal here tonight. The restaurant has a lovely relaxed atmosphere and the food is delicious. If you want a nice, chilled and cosy dining experience with excellent service, you can't go wrong here.

Don’t let the exterior fool you….this place is a hidden gem! Warm, friendly atmosphere which is just the right size with a homely feel. Absolutely delicious, fresh food presented impeccably and fantastic value for money. Highly recommended and would definitely return.

Love this restaurant -a hidden gem! We dined from the market menu which is good value for money. Good choice of dishes, beautifully presented and delicious! Diligent staff and a lovely atmosphere.

A hidden gem of a restaurant. We visited on a wet January evening with reasonable expectations but were delighted by the quality of food and service.

I visited this restaurant recently as a guest of an old school friend. It was not a pleasant experience and I was quite embarrassed for him. The service was terrible, slow and unapologetic and the food was average at best. I see there are many...

Had a fab meal with family members who have been before. I was the only vegan & generally don't have high expectations of vegan food in restaurants, as they generally feel like an afterthought. The Prancing Stag proved that vegan food can be gourmet. This is a lovely, friendly, welcoming restaurant with a really nice atmosphere - a hidden gem in Jordanhill you should seek out.

Visited last night with work colleagues. Fantastic night, great service and laughs from our waiter. Food was brilliant and plentiful. For a night out to include food I would highly recommend.

Friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. The food was locally sourced and cooked to perfection. We will be back soon! Thanks!

Delicious food as usual, a well deserved AA Rosette award. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable too, look forward to going back soon.

Visited a few times now and it never fails! The food is superb, from seafood to game, meat to veggie, it is all well prepared from very fresh tasty ingredients and beautifully presented. And they don't charge ridiculously for drinks either! With its own car...

Outing with friends all of whom were delighted with the serving, presentation and flavours of our various menu choices. Couldn’t recommend this restaurant highly enough.

Brilliant restaurant. Lovely food and wines at a very reasonable price. Helpful and friendly staff. I would recommend and will definitely be back.

Our visit to this restaurant was perfect from start to finish. Very welcoming staff and a lovely atmosphere. My espresso martini was excellent. The homemade pesto and bread was very yummy. A highlight for me was the kedgeree arancini starter. All the food was wonderful...

First time here ,what a delightful,delicious meal. Greeted by lovely staff,the surroundings are very nice,lots of light . Good choice of wines and staff member seemed very knowledgeable about pairings. I had the sashimi special,delicious!,then the Scottish seafood main course ,hubby had the pork belly.Plates...

This little hidden gem on the west side certainly delivers if you are looking for an intimate place with great food and solid service. The chef appears to be practicing for a Michelin star.

Took my friend here for her birthday. We both chose from the market menu. The choices were great - a good selection. Small warm bread rolls were served before the starters - with seasalt butter and a dip. Delicious! For starters, I had gin soaked...

Excellent food and good service, which was friendly and helpful. You wouldn't believe it, a great find but you would never guess from the outside.

Blown away by the quality of the food at the Prancing Stag. Small but mighty menu filled with fresh, seasonal dishes which were all presented beautifully. Great wine selection too. Lovely interior which feels homely yet intimate and exclusive. Very friendly staff who were excellent, particularly when catering for a nut allergy and noted any changes made to each dish to accommodate this. Brilliant value for money and perfect place for a special occasion. A hidden gem of Glasgow I would say.

We went to the prancing stag tonight as had heard so many of our family sing its praises. Well what can I say. Menu innovative and yet familiar. We ate black pudding like I have never seen and the crispy pancecetta is a revelation in...

Popped in for lunch today with a friend. Food was delicious - we both had the chicken from the a la carte menu and it was lovely. Would definitely recommend that if you are visiting. There is currently a discount at lunchtime - which was...

Excellent food and wine, decent value and we were very well looked after. There was a lunch time discount on the a la carte, so we went for it, along with a very nice bottle of Pinot Noir. Lovely lunch time treat and would go...

The Prancing Stag is a little out of the city (you will need to take a taxi or catch the train - Jordanhill station is right next door) but its worth seeking out as it was lovely. Quite a small restaurant and not particularly attractive...

Amazing service from Rory and the team. Gorgeous restaurant, fabulous food and just all round perfect Glasgow restaurant. Thank you for going over and above to help me treat my parents to a lovely meal. Definitely be back soon. Highly recommend ⭐️

Fantastic little restaurant hidden right next to Jordanhill Train Station. We enjoyed a lovely lunch from the Market Menu. Quality and presentation of food was amazing and price good too. Service was excellent also. Would highly recommend

Amazing food, great service and great overall experience. Would definitely recommend. Never had a bad meal and cocktails also very good.

Excellent food and great service. We had the market menu which is great value. Starters if halloumi and salmon, followed by mains of hake and rump. Everything was excellent.

Second visit to this excellent restaurant. From quality of service which is very very good to the lovely food which we could not fault. Everything is presented with faultless attention to detail.

Excellent anniversary lunch in a really relaxed setting. And bonus points to the restaurant for phoning up the following day to return some cash after both server and myself overlooked the 20% discount that was meant to apply on the date. Only tiny gripe might...

Absolutely love this place! Been 3 or 4 times now and I have never been let down! Food is totally delicious and both staff and atmosphere are lovely! Will definitely be back!
