L. S.

Fabulous lunch today. Dined with my Mum and my daughter. Staff polite and courteous. Food was exquisite, cooked perfectly and served promptly. We managed to have three courses with rose wine followed by teas and coffee. Prawn cocktails were delish and chicken rillette completed our starters. Mains consisted of Scottish salmon, sole fillets and stuffed chicken breast. Desserts of vanilla ice cream, tiramisu, pear and almond frangipani. Teas and coffee was served with mini shortbread discs and Scottish tablet. Definitely recommended and looking forward to a return visit.

Nice place and helpful staff. Food isn't anything to write home about but it suits fine! Decent wine selection too!

A. D.

Attended having been given a voucher as a gift. Was very impressed. The food was a very high standard and the service was excellent. On arrival (slightly early) our table wasn't ready however we were guided to the bar area to relax and await our table. Waiting time was barely time to order a drink which was great. Our waiter knew the menu well and was attentive for drinks. We paid an extra supplement to have steak which was cooked exactly as requested. Highly recommended for a nice relaxing meal

Loved our Valentines night out here. Fantastic, buzzing atmosphere, steaks are cooked perfectly, very sizeable cuts, and peppercorn sauce was amazing. Also the chunky chips are the chunkiest iv had and seasoned lovely. I would say you are on par with Miller & Carter for food quality. Definitely will return.

Lovely food and good choices on offer. A little expensive but for a special occasion , birthdays and the like, it's worth it. Service is trying to be rather formal but still too casual at times.. Sounds weird but at least two of the servers chewed gum all through the service. Maybe it's just me? But the food was excellent and I will return, and recommend it .

Absolutely Phenomenal. Myself and my boyfriend came for our date night. Everything from the service to the food was excellent. The night we attended we had not one but two waiters attend our table, as one of the young gentleman was on his first training shift. He seemed rather nervous however he done a fantastic job. Our food was cooked to perfection, I am a massive foody and steak lover and quite frankly its in the top two of best steaks I have ever had. I enjoyed my evening and will be returning. It is not every day you attend a restaurant where the staff are very well trained and the food is amazing. Thankyou for having us

G. Q.

Great city centre location, plush interior, extensive menu, nice cocktails and attentive staff. So why only 3*? Because the steak was truly poor. I ordered medium rare, it was definitely rare. Was the same for the rest of my party, nothing was just right. Staff did what they could but the kitchen was just having a bad night it seems. The fact I was able to get a table on a Saturday night with only a couple hours notice tells you everything. Save your money and go to the Butchershop - much better food and in a similar price bracket. 1/5 for steak, 5/5 everything else, 3/5 overall.

G. B.

Overall it could have been a 5 star experience but they made a few major mistakes. + Food is good + Prices are fair + Staff is friendly - Went there with 4 people, only 2 drank wine. Staff did not ask who drinks wine and who not. Table was full of food, drinks but the staff did not remove the wine glasses of the people who didn't drank wine. In a gourmet restaurant I expect the staff to show some attention. - Staff also did not noticed that water was empty, so we had to refill by ourselves. You can't put a bottle holder next to the table and then let your guests serve themselves. - Staff started get the store ready to close while people were still eating (it was around 10pm). Overall a very nice place with much potential but atm I would not come back here.

D. A.

Beautiful surroundings and staff attentive. Soup was lovely and home made bread was warm and delicious. Rest of the meal and cocktails were underwhelming - not sure if it’s because it was very busy.

S. M.

4 course itison set menu, delicious! Great service! Beautiful ambience with view of the lights above the square, although we were seated next to plate return window. Portion size is a little on the small side but we still left satisfied. If you are used to filling yourself to the brim at a buffet then you may have to adjust slightly to this menu. Steak upgrade would have been £12. The existing menu options are superb. Recommended.

R. M.

This place should come with a warning for over-eating. We had all three courses, which doesn't happen often and they were all absolutely gorgeous. Service was lovely and timely despite it being a busy weekend. The prices were surprisingly "friendly" too, I would have paid more..

W. M.

Groupon deal meal for two. Lovely surroundings nicely set up. Situated in a place with loads of busy night life. Cracking Restaurant with helpful management and staff. Food really tasty and the chef has worked well with the mouth watering flavours. Chicken breast with veg, mushrooms and chunky chips was brilliant. Had payed through a groupon deal but was again charged for meals when paying for additionals. This was quickly dealt with by management and no harm was done. I would recommend this delightful place and a big thank you to all who made it a wonderful evening.

C. G.

Nice high-end dining place in the city center. I recommend trying the scottish dry-aged beef. It was one of the best steaks I've ever eaten. The waiters could pay more attention to their customers. I expect that when eating at that price range!

A. J.

Been a couple of times, food nothing to write about. Small and not very good. Friend had a lunch time deal. Hate when you have to pay for your veg, including potatoes or chips. Which weren't included in the deal. Hidden extras.. And when are they getting the ladies toilet door fixed, which didn't close. Same as the last time, almost a year ago. Won't be back.

P. S.

The only place in Glasgow that I have found that does steak as well as I can do at home. All aspects of the meal were excellent and the staff were friendly but not intrusive. Good location in the heart of Glasgow- get a window seat to be entertained by the people in the square outside!!

D. C.

Nice place with a nice setting, nice when they have the live piano playing on with evening dinner it adds a nice touch. Sloping floor near the windows is strange but it’s what you get in listed buildings. The also have a private dining area which is also nice if you want a personal touch to your evening

S. W.

Good food and great service ! Used their 2courses for two people plus a bottle of wine for £39 and was pleasantly surprised with the menu choices available. Lovely decor. Would recommend booking a table.

J. T.

I have dined here on a few occasions, usually with a gift voucher which offers great value. Service is excellent and the food has always been first class. An interesting building.

D. F.

Terrific on Saturday. The last few times we had been to 29 the food was decidedly average. Don't know what has changed but on Saturday every dish was delicious, restored my faith.

W. S.

Great food matched the the service and value. Look out for the 50% off offers. Fantastic time to go. Book in advance for that as it gets very busy. Free street parking after 6pm and at weekends.

M. G.

Fantastic night at The Grill on the Square, food was first class, with our itison voucher for a four course meal with a glass of prosecco. We were given a table at the window looking into the Square and the fairy lights, just lovely. There is a lovely ambience surrounding the dining area also and the bar and even just popping in for a drink is worth it, lovely seating and lighting. The girl who served us was really helpful and pleasant, thank you, and I would definitely recommend The Grill on the Square and will certainly be back again.

G. W.

I enjoyed it. The steak was the right size for the price and it was cooked to the right level. Took a while to be seated but once seated it was good service.

M. H.

Was there for afternoon tea. Lovely selection of sandwiches, cakes were dainty & delicious. A choice of a glass of prosecco or a gin & tonic was also included. Lovely decor.

M. D.

Our meal was served by Robert this is the 3rd occassion he has served our table excellent service good recomendations of items on menu. The meal was VG and the £29 price for the city centre amazing***** we will be back....Ronald

M. L.

We had a lovely meal here gifted by my son and daughter-in-law. When we were being seated i heard the chefs swearing complained to waiter and he said he was having a stressful day other than that everything else was great.

J. H.

Very nice place steaks cooked beautifully and would highly recommend. More available to the menu than just steaks. Also the specials are very nice always ask when you arrive.

This restaurant is hard to find but is eell worth the effort. The quality of the food and service was excellent for us on a Monday lunchtime before Christmas.

J. S.

The food was lovely staff very nice n helpful the sticky toffee pudding wasnt wat I thot great value lunch tho👍

K. B.

Food is ok and nice enough place, watch out for the extras they charge, bottled water instead of just a jug and the bread they bring to the table without even asking and not once mentioning that these are chargeable. Very sneaky.

L. M.

Lovely food, nice atmosphere, great staff, reasonable prices

S. B.

Good food in here... the young girl serving was incredibly helpful and had a brilliant smile and laugh.. even if the food was mediocre I would still rate this place as the young girl is a credit to the owner.

J. D.

Great food, good service. Really excellent place to eat and enjoy a meal in the city centre.

Delicious food. Would have given a 5 but the music piped into the restaurant was too loud. Suggest making it more background.

K. M.

Nice food, a bit night clubbish for a dinner I think more for if you're going straight out after it but yes nice food,

F. E.

Set in the gorgeous surroundings of Royal Exchange Square, The Grill Room at the Square is a private members club that you can dine in. With a set lunch at £15 for two courses and coffee, it isn't out of reach. With the option to upgrade to their signature steaks, the dishes are more than enough to keep any belly happy. more information at Food and Drink Glasgow site.
