Charming
Neighbourhood gem

The tradition of Southern France have stumbled across the heartbeat of American South at Chateau West, where intimate placement and unpretentious cuisine charmingly fulfill the Francophile in all of us. Chateau West is a gem tucked away off West End; you could almost miss it if it weren’t for the chateau like exterior. The ambiance, service, and menu offering reintroduce you to the favorites you’ve forgotten-and there’s real charm in that. Everything old is new again. Find a table for lunch or dinner and order up some classic French dishes such as Chateaubriand, Duck Chambord, Beef Bourguignon. Determined to maintain the utmost in quality, fresh baguettes are made daily and served with real European butter.

A relaxed evening with family. Food was high quality and delicious. The low key atmosphere was great! Would definitely come back next time we are in town.

This was our first time. We were visiting Nashville for the weekend, and caught it on the way out. It is so difficult to find true French food anymore. This was superb. My waiter was great. We will definitely be back again. Thanks for a great lunch in the snow.

It appeared they were short handed for the evening. Food was outstanding, service was slow but it was a very crowded evening on a holiday weekend. I’d definitely go back.

Absolutely terrible experience. We had a reservation for Valentine’s Day at 8:45, they seemed to overbook the reservations because there had to be 20+ people waiting by the front door for tables as well. I requested a table inside because they have a sliding glass door that opens every 3 seconds and squeaks. I was informed that they would not be able to seat us inside for at least an hour so we took the table outside 20 minutes after our reservation. They were clearly understaffed and not prepared at all. After sitting down we never received any water or bread. The server came around to us and apologized for how long everything was taking. It looked like she was taking care of at least half of the restaurant we felt horrible for her. We waited 20 minutes for water and never had anyone else come up to us to take a drink order or food order so we left.

Horrible experience. The restaurant seemed to overbook reservations. Spent an hour waiting after our reservation time. Service took another 3 hours for a three-course dinner. Food was mediocre and overpriced. Additional charge for not paying with cash.

No waiting area, very limited parking, but seated about 5 minutes prior to our reservation which was nice. The food was great, and prompt service especially on Valentine’s Day. The drinks were a little pricey but worth it. Overall 4.5 out of 5

Eli, our server was really good. The issue was they were totally overbooked for Valentines day. We waited 30 minutes past our reservation time, which we showed up 10 minutes before it started. Then it took another 25 minutes to get our order taken, and I understand "coursing meals" but our apps were gone in 15 minutes and still was another almost hour before we got entrees. I'm sorry but almost 3 hours for a 3 course meal is absurd. If we had plans we would've had to walk out.
