We arrived early and by luck our table was available. Very attentive service throughout. We had the Christmas menu. Food was excellent & beautifully presented. Wine with meal was reasonably priced. We finished with a cocktail which was also good value. First time I’d been to the Spiritualist in a while but as good as I remembered and I will definitely return soon.

About the restaurant

Chateau-X has quite the story, born out of lockdown, we took a luxurious chateaubriand experience to homes across the UK.

Growing our offering throughout lockdown saw demand for us to increase so much, we knew we couldn't stop when life resumed to the 'new normal'.

That brings us to today, Chateau-X in Finnieston, our first official restaurant, home to our luxurious Chateaubriand experience, for a reasonable price. Not skipping out on quality either as you might know already, we're vocal about being local.

Our mission is simple - bring top quality British sourced meat and produce to our community, with a bit of banter on the side. So, what are you waiting for?
See you soon!
