Opium in Glasgow City

This is a great Chinese restaurant in the heart of Glasgow City centre. They do main courses and excellent dim sum. Staff are very good and the food tastes amazing.

Some of the best Chinese food I've ever had. Highly recommend the Rib eye beef with Shiraz sauce

It's ok, I wasn't blown away by this I have to admit. I went for the duck with basil for my main and it was nice, fried ice cream and a glass of wine, you won't be disappointed I guess, but I was hoping for a bit more excitement!

Really wonderful little restaurant in the centre of Glasgow. Food was fantastic. Atmosphere was lovely. Couldn't ask for better service. Highly recommend.

Beautiful food, fish cooked to perfection and fragrant fluffy rice. Great selection of dishes to choose from. Friendly, helpful service. A small gripe, prices are quite high for smallish portions. Lovely atmosphere, I look forward to returning.

I’ve been here two times in a week during my stay in Glasgow. The food is really good, a mix between Chinese and south-east Asia cuisine. We really enjoyed their homemade dim sum; especially the Opium’s ribs is a dish you can’t skip if you come to this restaurant. It’s really something to die for XD. I had the first time the slow cooked pork belly which it was not too fat and the second time the kung bao chicken. Don’t expect the kung bao is the traditional Chinese style one but it’s also really good, the flavour is more sweet and sour and not spicy. If you have enough space at the end I suggest to try also their desserts, all good as they presented it on the plate. Will come back for sure in my next visit

Nice atmosphere, a great place to have dinner. The Thai seabream and the banana fritter for desert were super tasty!

Food was tasty and good menu to choose from. I enjoyed the selection of dim sum and the pork belly roll was really tasty. Overall enjoyed the meal but wasn’t blown away.We also ordered fried rice but I couldn’t tell if that’s what we got or if they accidentally gave us boiled (which wasn’t on the menu but I’m pretty sure that’s what it was).

Had a variety of dim sum & a cocktail. Loved it all. Freshly cooked & reasonably priced. Not tried the main dishes, but everything we had was delicious.

Food and atmosphere were good, service was good but would have liked a recommended amount of dishes to order from the server.Still a great meal and would recommend!
