The story
On Kelvingrove Street, in Glasgow’s Finnieston quarter, UNALOME by Graeme Cheevers offers a dining experience that earned a Michelin star for its high quality cooking. The restaurant’s name, a play on the chef’s own (Unalome is a Buddhist symbol, but here it’s also an anagram of his name), hints at the personal, precise approach that defines the kitchen.
The space is intimate, with tables allocated on the day by the team – a practical touch that ensures a smooth service. Lunch and dinner are served Thursday to Sunday, with a Wednesday evening sitting as well. The menu showcases Modern British cuisine, with a focus on seasonality and technique, though the precise dishes are not listed on the site. What is clear is the care taken at every step, from the 72-hour cancellation policy to the 12.5% discretionary service charge.
Graeme Cheevers is the name behind the pass, and his reputation runs deep in the Scottish dining scene. UNALOME is his solo venture, a sister to LOMA at Cameron House Hotel on Loch Lomond. The restaurant’s own website promises “an exceptional gift awaits,” referring to its gift vouchers – but the real gift is the cooking itself. The Michelin star, awarded in 2026, confirms that UNALOME is a destination for those seeking refined, ingredient-led plates in a relaxed, welcoming setting.
Beyond the main dining room, UNALOME can accommodate events with bespoke menus tailored to individual needs. Whether in the restaurant, at your home, or a venue of your choice, the team crafts experiences that suit the occasion. This flexibility, combined with the kitchen’s precision, makes it a favourite for special celebrations in Glasgow and beyond.
The restaurant’s tone is straightforward and warm – no “culinary journey” here, just a genuine invitation to experience Graeme Cheevers’ Modern British cooking at its best.
