Glasgow restaurant recommendations please. Any local knowledge appreciated!

Post graduation ceremony evening meal for four. Two modern parents 😉with two young men.

Something quicky, something delicious. I've looked at Michelin starred but really can't justify the price. I've also considered The Butchers Shop/Spanish Butcher and SixbyNico - but are these glorified chains?
Really love independents!

Preferably central Glasgow or Shawlands and surrounding. We can get a taxi elsewhere of course.

The finnieston is exceptional. Independent, fabulous and great atmosphere

My list exactly

2 fat ladies at the Buttery
red onion is nice but more a casual dining experience
we went to a place called prancing stag in Jordanhill which was nice.

alla turc -pitt street.outstanding

Swadish?

I love The Butchershop (didn't think it was a chain?) and think it feels pretty fancy. I'd choose that for a special occasion.

The butcher shop isn't a chain. It's a local guy. He owns one other restaurant in glasgow. I know him.

Ox and Finch.
Ardnamurchan.

i also love the Brasserie at Oran Mor. Stunning setting and lovely food.

Agree with many of the options listed, just wanted to add the bothy

Crabshakk - if you are seafood lovers
The bothy - occasion Scottish food
Ox and Finch - my favourite in Glasgow
Six by Nico - great experience
Two fat ladies at buttery - great staff
Shandon belles - ditto
Red onion - great for veggies or vegan mixed with meat eaters
