Horrible attitude on bouncer. Basically place was full but instead of explaining nicely got told. FULL go somewhere else! No people skills at all

Great vibe, drinks are decent too

We scheduled a table during post quarantine. We paid a deposit and tried to contact as we were running late. We never were able to reach the business over the phone so we emailed as well. Once we got to the bar, an employee said we weren’t on time and we didn’t contact them. As we explained we tried to contact, the business said everyone was busy on the floor and unavailable to take messages.

I haven't been out in just about a year, me and my friend came here for a few drinks after lunch. Service has been amazing from all the staff, I happen to mention it was my birthday and Paul gave me and my friend a free shot to celebrate. #lovedelmonicas#itsmybirthday#shoutouttopaul#justamazing

I reserved a booth for my friend’s birthday online, as I wasn’t able to get a hold of them via phone. They requested a £25 deposit to secure the table, which I paid to secure the table from 9:45pm-11:45pm. Due to transportation issues we were running late so I tried to call them to let them know, but no one picked up the phone so I emailed them at 9:43pm. When we arrived the bouncer was very rude and said they were booked up, even though we told him we had a booking. The manager came out and was extremely rude and said that we were late. He then accused me of not contacting them to inform them that we’d be late, but I told him that I tried calling but nobody answered so I emailed them and he said “well, we’re busy”. He said it was our fault we were late and the deposit was non-refundable. Poor customer service and appalling attitude.

The drag was terrible but the atmosphere was fun and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. But the drag really was terrible. Lots of swearing with no wit is not funny. The outfits were great though. Dont get me wrong... i LOVE good drag. I really appreciate the increase in drag culture in Glasgow. The drag last night (wesnesday 8th May) was just really poor quality compared to what i've seen. Overall still loved the night. Things have changed from when I first started coming here but the old Dels is always still here and that's great. It's like coming home

Absolutely a joke of a place! Monday night when I can go anywhere and spend my money! To be told by some over zealous female door person and I use the term lightly ! To move away from 2 other girls at the bar because I was in their space! What an absolute and biased joke! I was merely having a drink at the bar! Shall not spend one penny more in there ever again !

Lovely (and sometimes Lively) place tucked away in the end of Virginia Street Glasgow. Beautiful interior design, (it cannot be more tasteful (I dare you to try imagine anything better) and a true tribute to the gay rainbow flag). The staff are wonderful, helpful and chatty and thus make you feel invited and warm. The drinks are fab, everything from the house wine to the fizz, from the beers and oh the cocktails! (They keep a pretty well packed bar). The events are awesome, drag queens are a ball, and have seen myself and friends purple with laughter for some of the skits. There's a pool table on the mezzanine and a karaoke room. Music is a mix of the latest in pop to 90s classics and 12" remixes (often asked for). Go! There's a place for everyone in this bar.

Extremely disappointed - had a night booked for my friends birthday for nearly 2 months in here. I phoned 3 or 4 times to pay the deposit/bill and to confirm the booking, to be told everything was OK and was asked to wait until the night to settle the bill.I then phoned 1 week prior to the event to confirm the booking again only to now be told the venue has double booked and are cancelling my night.The staff i spoke to were very nice and polite about it, however that does not distract from the fact I am left without a venue a week before my friends birthday.Had I not phoned to confirm this booking, i suspect I would have showed up on the night to be turned away.Extremely poor organising on Delmonica's part.

Was here during Halloween weekend and enjoyed it. It was busy with loads of patrons in fancy dress. The bar is rather short though so there's a bit of a wait to get served. The bartender insisted on using PIN rather than contactless payment, which is good and bad depending on your outlook. Good music played all night and there was a nice vibe to the place. The dance area was rather warm though and felt like a heat trap. Overall, it was certainly nice and worth a return.
