Thai Lemongrass
24 Renfrew Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3BW
To enter Thai Lemongrass is to step off a grubby street of buses and building work and into a little bit of zen, where ceiling fans slowly whirl and muzak never sounded so good. Exquisitely uniformed staff swiftly present Thai prawn crackers (infinitely…
Shilla
1138 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8TD
Glasgow’s only Korean restaurant, Shilla, occupies a cosy corner on old Argyle street. With tightly packed tables and friendly staff the restaurant has a bustling yet welcoming atmosphere. The wide range of dishes, and their unfamiliar names can be a…
OKO Express
78 Queen Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3DN
Now under new ownership OKO has raised its game, with all dishes being fresher and better presented than ever, and when it comes to Japanese food that is imperative. The setting is typical for a sushi bar with cafeteria style bench seating that is good…
Dragon-i
311–313 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3PT
Both the sharp, minimalist surroundings and quasi-Asian menu serve to underline Dragon-i is anything but a traditional Chinese restaurant. There is an undoubted Scottish element running through the menu, with Stornoway black pudding accompanying crispy…
Rumours Kopitiam
21 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1HW
Bustling, and often full of students, this Malaysian café on Bath Street provides a great pit stop for groups on their way out. A kopitiam in Asia is traditionally a breakfast and tea or coffee shop (kopi being the Malay for coffee) although Rumours…

Glasgow,
G12 8TB
The sister venue to the Mitchell Street venue of the same name, Soba opened on Byres Road in early 2012 and is described as a ‘Bar & Noodle Kitchen’. The bar aspect means that Soba offers a great selection of cocktails. They may not be cheap but…
Kuta
104 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2EN
Bar Kuta is the latest addition to the group of Glasgow venues operated by owner Alan Tomkins, an impressive array already including notables like Urban Bar & Brasserie and Booly Mardy’s. Kuta’s sleek contemporary interior certainly achieves it’s…

2-6 Ingram Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1HA
The Merchant City plays host to the Glasgow branch of this three-strong UK chain. Popular with stags, hens, birthdays and works night outs, Sapporo Teppanyaki has a well-deserved reputation as a fun destination for parties. Large hotplates provide a…
Wau Cafe
27 Old Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G3 8RD
Unlike the other Malaysian restaurants in Glasgow who include Chinese or Thai dishes on their menu, the Wau Café concentrates on Malaysian Malay food. The small informal café, with only room for a handful of tables, has a disproportionately extensive…
Bar Soba
11 Mitchell Lane,
Glasgow,
G1 3NU
One of the first restaurants in Glasgow to serve fashionable ‘fusion’ food, Bar Soba serves up a mix of Thai, Japanese, Vietnamese and Chinese influenced dishes including the soba noodles that the restaurant’s name suggests. Bar Soba claims that its…
Thai Orchid
336 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G2 8LY
Thai Orchid with its deep purple lighting, the gently orchestral music and large photographs of Thailand, provides a welcome escape from Argyle Street. The clientele are largely out-of-towners on expenses, possibly from the business hotels nearby. There…
Amber Regent
50 West Regent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2RA
From the staffed cloakroom to the waiters effortlessly filleting fish at the table, the Amber Regent retains many of the characteristics of hospitality from a bygone era. This theme carries through to the furnishings with the restaurant’s adjoining…
Ho Wong
82 York Street,
Glasgow,
G2 8LE
In our era of austerity, restaurants have attempted to entice diners with an avalanche of mid-week, cut-price offers. On a gloomy Tuesday evening, Ho Wong is near capacity despite not offering a pre-theatre or discounted menu options. Considering Ho…
Thai Siam
1191 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8TQ
Occupying a steadily gentrifying section of Argyle Street, Thai Siam is a neighbourhood favourite with a friendly atmosphere. The décor is a bit curry house circa 1990, plus large wall reliefs of the Buddha and the menu also appears to have stayed the…
China Blue
96 Renfield Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1NH
The darkened staircase leading to China Blue gives the impression of an out-dated karaoke bar, yet the authentic food is anything but a parody. The menu is separated into an opening section of familiar Westernised dishes and traditional Chinese dishes…
Wudon
535 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8HN
Wudon is a family-run enterprise on Great Western Road headed up by the Wu sisters and offering a mix of Chinese and Japanese dishes with nods to Thai and Indonesian cuisine. The website boasts that the restaurant is about ‘more than just noodles’ and…
Chow
98 Byres Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8TB
Recent renovations to Chow have highlighted the importance in remaining contemporary and fresh in the cut-throat dining arena that is Byres Road. A geisha now adorns the back wall, while an eclectic mix of stylish music can be detected in the…
Home Wok
101 Byres Road,
Glasgow,
G11 5HW
The family owners of this modest but meaningful establishment have created a solid, popular menu with no reliance on greasy oils that leave an after-taste. On the contrary, the crispy coconut king prawns are light as a feather and deliciously delicate.
Yumla
80 Miller Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1DT
Yumla is smack bang in the heart of the city – just off Argyle and Ingram Streets – yet it is somewhat hidden on a dark Merchant City street. This rather concealed location may well explain the well-lit, flashy exterior that leads into a very large…
Bar Budda
8 Cresswell Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8AA
Although Thai-influenced food has been a characteristic of this high-concept chain for several years, more recently the West End branch has also been focusing on Scottish ingredients while still retaining a flavour of the Far East. Embedded in Cresswell…
Ichiban Japanese Noodle Café
184 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G11 6UN
Translating from Japanese into English as ‘one’ this noodle bar and sushi stop has been busy since opening on Dumbarton Road ten years ago. In common with its Queen Street twin, diners take up their places on benches alongside large wooden tables amid…
Opium
191 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2UL
The soft lighting and darkly elegant tones of the décor add to the feeling of opulence and decadence suggested by this restaurant’s name. In addition to offering a well-balanced mix of Chinese, Thai and Malay influenced dishes on the select menu the…
The Secret Garden at the Gate
62 Trongate, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 5EP
This is something different from the team behind both the Dhabba and Dakhin Indian restaurants - a bar with a small dining room to the rear that features Asia Pacific cuisine of an Indo-Chinese inclination. As we go to press, however, keys had just been…
Tusk
18 Moss Side Road,
Glasgow,
G41 3TN
One can't help being overwhelmed when entering Tusk; the vast, high-ceilinged former filmhouse carries off a contemporary Asian-inspired design with a luxurious flourish. At centre stage sits a giant golden Buddha, and the faint smell of incense drifts…

Yen
28 Tunnel Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8HL
The North Rotunda is based in the heartland of what was once Clydeside's mighty shipbuilding industry. Today it's an increasingly incongruous relic of red brick Victoriana amid chain hotels, with the gleaming new BBC and STV bases across the water. Yen…
Yo! Sushi
House of Fraser, 45 Buchanan Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3HL
The long snaking conveyor belt of brightly coloured plates, bright lighting, and big flat screens flashing Japanese cartoons can make entering any Yo! Sushi a little like visiting a kitsch hi-tech Japanese factory. The extensive sushi menu comes with…

2 Woodside Crescent,
