Ho Wong is an established Cantonese restaurant at 56 Waterloo Street in central Glasgow. Founded in 1986, it has built its identity around attentive service, an extensive menu and a polished setting for lunch and dinner.
The à la carte selection moves from soups and dim sum to seafood, poultry, meat and vegetable dishes. Crystal king prawns and satay preparations are among the restaurant’s recognised specialities, while rice and soft noodles round out a meal.
Banquet-style menus are designed for two or more diners and encourage communal dining. Mixed hors d’oeuvres, aromatic crispy duck and a sequence of Cantonese main dishes make these set choices useful for groups and celebrations.
Vegetarian, vegan and dishes prepared without gluten-containing ingredients appear within the wider menu. Guests with allergies, coeliac disease or dietary requirements should still discuss ingredients and possible cross-contact with the restaurant before ordering.
Address: 56 Waterloo Street, Glasgow G2 6HQ, Scotland
