- Very solid vegan food but average service
Overall, the food is very good, and the polenta fries are particularly worth trying. While the service can be very good or just average, its worth a visit for the food and in a good location (albeit a little hidden away in an alley) in downtown Glasgow! We had dropped by Sterero on a past visit to Glasgow but it was closed (I think we must have tried to go just before their noon opening time on a Sunday). Luckily this time we made it in and had lunch there not one, but two times over a long weekend. The first time we stepped through the massive doors, we waited until someone noticed us and told us where to sit. There is a relatively small menu but they had a few specials one of which we got. We ordered the polenta fries, haggis kofta wrap, and the special breakfast burrito. They were all very good and tasty, but we saved enough room to also get a delicious mint chocolate brownie for dessert. All the bread is made fresh in house and it definitely tasted like it. The service this first time was fine, not especially good, but not bad either. There are lots of small plates that are good to try with interesting combinations like the polenta fries, which were very unique and delicious. On our second visit, we decided to stick with the small plates and got the polenta fries as well as the spring rolls and the haggis koftas (we were looking for a very light meal - a more substantial lunch would probably require 2-3 plates per person). The spring rolls were another good choice - warm and crispy with a nice sweet chili/soy sauce dip, but we felt the haggis koftas worked better in the wrap because they were a little dry and crumbly on their own. Our server the second time around was very friendly and paid prompt attention to our table, so we really appreciated that.
