& Kitchen Table in Camden

One of the better meals I've ever experienced and the chef's table setting made it more interesting and special. We bonded with the people around us over some extraordinary food. It doesn't come cheaply, but you won't regret it

The experience was fantastic! The food superb! Service top notch!

Last Friday we went down to this 2 star Michelin in central london. We knew we were in for a treat as Kitchen Table is more than just about the food, it’s about the experience from the moment you are welcomed into their lounge/bar., where all guests are wait, enjoy a cocktail or two, and where the first of our snacks are serviced. After taking our seat around the U shape table, the chefs and front of house begin their journey of serving up plate after plate of innovated and locally sourced produces, and amazing wines. We loved that throughout the evening, everyone interacts with you, making it an a dinning experience not to forget. Yes, this is at the higher end of the price point, but in our opinion, well worth it We will be back later is year.

I challenge anyone to name another restaurant, anywhere in the world, that works so hard to make very single guest feel like both a celebrity, and also their best mate. The professionalism, the friendliness, the attention to detail - as all the while James Knappett serves up the most delicious flavours over a frankly insane 17 courses - is unique. It’s not just spectacular food, it’s also a total riot. Absolutely perfect.

If we could leave 10 stars – we would! We´ve been to quite a few Michelin Restaurants (several ***) – but Kitchen Table is up there with the very best! Regarding the food...On a big tasting menu there´s normally something that does not hit the spot or are "not your thing"...But, in all honestly, we licked every single plate! Also, as a big bonus, we got to spend some time and chat with Head Chef James Knappett...Funny, Humble and a sense for taste/texture that is second to none. On top of all this, the service team/staff are so warm, friendly and professional, that you actually feel that you are home at someones Kitchen Table. Christina was amazing with helping us with reservation and we couldn´t have asked for a better evening. Some say it´s to expensive...I say: worth every penny! It´s not just a dinner. It´s a memory. And a bloody tasty one at that!

The service and experience was amazing.

Beware: in addition to the high prices for food and drinks here, and the service charge, they also charge an extra fee for paying your bill. Also the wine "pairings" don't match with every course, they are just a nice selection of wines to drink during dinner.

Truly an incredible experience, and I think they deserve that. The concept is as if you were in a friend's home for a private evening full of good food and good company. You start in their lounge right before the start of dinner service and they serve an amouse bouche along with cocktails. They then bring you to the large open kitchen where everyone sits around the main plating area in a communal style seating. The staff was incredibly attentive and thoughtful with the presentation. Excited to come back again!

Wow what an experience! The food was insanely amazing. It was like food, art and theatre all together. The only thing I didn’t like was the fact you had to pay £40/50 for truffle on top of what you’re already paying. I think it should be included or the cost of the meal should account for that.

One of the very best meals of my life. Superb service, great ambience, love the countertop concept and the interaction with the chefs and staff. Impeccable meal, and fantastic cocktails (thanks Micky!). If you're looking for a splurge then Kitchen Table would be a great choice!

Possibly the best meal we have ever had. A good measure of a meal is the amount of involuntary noises you make when eating it. This happened with practically every course. The service was relaxed and friendly, the setting stripped away some of the stuffiness you can get in high-end restaurants and for the entire staff to deliver this experience under the gaze of everyone seated around ‘the kitchen table’ was a really engrossing performance. They deserve every success - for the rest of us, it’s worth saving up because it ain’t cheap!

A really fantastic night out. James and his chefs are a treat to watch and interact with.

Full of flavour, very interesting taste. Def worth trying!

There’s no place like Kitchen Table. They have everything you’d expect from a great restaurant, but the highlight is the experience they provide on top of it. Their staff was the nicest and most genuine I’ve seen anywhere and I can’t wait to be back to London so I can visit again.

One of the most fantastic meas I have ever had. This whole restaurant is there to provide a unique and memorable experience. The chef communicates directly with his customers, its a fun, relaxed experience but the professional environment of the kitchen and staff is self-evident.

The food preparation and wine pairing are great. What I really don't like, is the feeling that the arrangement for the evening (ie: staging you and everyone in the waiting room) seems to position for trying (really trying) to upsell you more drinks, more add-ons. Would have been great for the staffs to be able to communicate this differently. I am sure the intention is good, as you would like to offer guests the opportunity to experience more; but there are more discrete ways of doing this. Everyone upsells, but not everyone do it with subtlety.

Excellent tasting menu that ticks all the boxes: cool space, personable chef, attentive staff, fast pace, perfect portions (leaving you full but not stuffed), creative ingredients and cooking methods - it was a perfect date night and well worth the expense.

Great dining experience with local ingredients and expert execution. Starts in the front with the amuse bouche and moves to the open kitchen dining concept in the back. Loved that they had a growers champagne pairing in addition to wine pairing. Moves back to the front room for petit fours. The best, and fresh baked Madelines I’ve ever had !

James Knappet is my favorite Brit

This restaurant is so good it's a destination. We booked this reservation, then we planned our holiday in London including flights. We were concerned the experience would have changed from COVID but it's just as great. They removed Bubbledogs from the front and changed it to a lounge area where you get appetizer bites and drinks while you wait for dinner seating.

Never tried out the kitchen table concept before and I was fantastic. The stand out and favourite course for me was the squid / peanut / goan spice dish. Of course almost all of them we're incredible, which is what you'd expect from 2 stars, and of course there were strange pairs that work shockingly well. I never knew I wanted wagu + walnut until I did that evening. As for the format of the table, I found it a delight to pass the time watching all the chefs work away on the dishes, I've never done a chef's table before but I think I will in the future. It's a little cosy in the room, however the chairs are massive so you have enough space of your own, and the staff will always help you get comfy if you need to move adjust yourself a little. So again I'm usually used to big open restaurants but this is a little different, it's a bit like the theatre, packed but enough room, and it adds to the atmosphere. The best part above all of the whole meal was the soft parings drinks with the courses. This is the first time I've seen this, and a huge amount of effort was put into coming up with non-alcoholic parings to go with each dish. There was a dealcoholized red wine with the duck course and it could not have matched more perfectly. I think they'd added missing notes back in to round it off. There was also a rich barley drink that beginning that tasted so dense and rich. These were not some random soft drinks they’re found, the were expertly crafted. I could not recommend this place enough. The decor, the bustling but relaxed atmosphere, the care and quality, it’s exquisite fun.

This place is THE place. Some chef’s create dishes because they look good, are trendy and cater to the people. Chef James creates food from the heart. Each dish embraces the seasons and reaches for local ingredients; which is the best menu to eat from. The whole staff is like a fine tuned orchestra, making the experience not only top tiered but extraordinary! Not one staff member didn’t contribute to making our evening a memorable one (even the guy putting out plates for chef was amazing!) If you are fortunate enough to get a reservation enjoy every moment! Great conversation with Chef and all his right hand people! An amazing bar tender and I could fan girl all day about this place. I wouldn’t hesitate to come again!

Nice experience however gave me and my friend food poisoning.

The food was delicious, and I loved the concept where you get snacks and then go to the dining room for the rest of the meal. The vibe was great as everyone was sitting across one large table, and seeing your food getting prepared was amazing, too.

This was a masterclass on how to deliver an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. For anyone wanting to have a very memorable evening with them truly knockout food & drink, I would highly recommend.

Underwhelmed and overrated in my opinion, lost its sparkle post covid, this isn’t the dinning experience it was! It may have been unintentional but James came across as arrogant and uninterested. The seating was stools crammed in around the kitchen that you couldnt even get out of your seat without staff assistance to go to the bathroom. James was in the kitchen until 9.00pm and then disappeared and never returned, the head chef had no charisma or personality, neither really interacted with the guests other than to announce the dishes. All the courses were cold, not even warm - the lobster curry could have been the best dish if it wasn’t stringy. The best dish was the cheese and pear tartin which anyone can make at home. The wild fallow venison course was debatable whether it was wild especially considering what is in season this time of year. First 2 courses and the last 2 courses were served in the bar area, also detaching you from the kitchen, giving less of a dining experience. Booking clearly tells you money up front no refunds which seems extreme. The sommelier was bonnie and acknowledgeable and she tried to hold the experience together - she worked hard and was good. Very disappointed, would not return, for £1000 could go away for a nice weekend instead!

Won't spoil a thing, just go! Spectacular

Special Special restaurant. Just dive in and go! You will not regret it Teamwork makes the dreamwork!

We had a really nice experience here, cannot fault it. Yes it is expensive but as a special treat we were not disappointed. The atmosphere, staff and little attentions are much friendlier than other "chef's table" type experiences in the West End. It is much less pretentious.

Embarking on a culinary journey, the tomato's succulence delights and tomato water refreshes. Transitioning, garlic butter bread captivates with airy crunch and delicate essence. Continuing, scallops with pickled vegetables create a contrasting, elevated experience. Next, trout's symphony of flavors dances with walnuts, ginger, and floral notes. The lobster adventure unfolds with smoky, nutty precision. Moving on, rustic mushroom pasta delights; a touch of thyme could enhance. Shifting, onions and leeks resemble onion soup but with slight reservation. Advancing, flawless duck, plum purée, harmonious sauce, fennel, and cucumber bed enthrall. In a crescendo, Peach Tatin captivates with savory-sweet allure. Culminating, Blueberry Apple Sorbet harmonizes textures and flavors. Finally, Milk Ice Cream refreshes with harmonious textures, starring coffee/yogurt crisp. Our journey concludes satisfyingly.

Enjoyed a fantastic belated birthday treat 😋. Lovely personable staff, excellent dining experience, the quality of the food and cooking justified the cost

Ein hervorragendes Restaurant mit tollem Konzept. Sehr selten und deswegen umso erfreulicher, ist die Champagnerbegleitung zum Menü. Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Abend, mit vorzüglichen Speisen, erlesenen Getränken und einem sehr freundlichen Service. Jederzeit gerne wieder.

We came here last week having originally visited prior to the Michelin stars and when bubbledogs occupied the front half of the restaurant in early 2018. The food was immaculate as expected. Really delicious courses throughout and exactly at the level you would expect for 2 Michelin stars. The sitting in the cocktail bar (where bubbledogs used to be) for the first few courses is really nice and goes well with a pre dinner drink However, for dessert they do then also move you back to the cocktail bar for the final two dessert plates with the aim of you ordering a post dinner drink. Everyone has their own opinion but for me I didn’t like this, I would far prefer to finish my courses at the main table. Perhaps this is because I’m not really a post dinner drink person but it did feel a bit like trying to get you to order more drinks. Besides this a great dinner.

One of the best restaurants in London and worthy of a show stopper meal to celebrate a special occasion. From start to end we were well looked after by the whole team. Food was inventive and seasonal with each course introduced by the chefs. We can’t wait to visit again. If possible, request the seats closest to the grill for the most interaction with the chefs.

My husband and I had one of our most exciting and engaging dining experiences this week at Kitchen Table which takes the Chef’s Table concept to a new level. Within the beautifully intimate restaurant, friendly, attentive and very knowledgeable staff served up some of the most fantastically well thought out dishes we have ever eaten. The chefs take time to show everyone the fresh ingredients they will be using and explain the processes used to create certain elements of each dish. The personal touches and effort all of the staff go to engaging with each guest make this a truly special location. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to experience amazing food and a really entertaining evening out.

Absolute top tier experience at Kitchen Table. One of my favourite ever fine dining experiences. The food was precise, beautifully presented, creative, and fundamentally delicious. Probably the best lobster dish I've ever had and supremely tender lamb - we are both fine dining lovers and were so impressed. Atmosphere is of course high end but is relaxed and allows for interacting with the chefs and other diners. Service was excellent: adaptive, friendly, and on point. Some details with service made this an extremely memorable experience. I can't find any faults and at £200 for the tasting this represents remarkable value for a 2 star restaurant. A must visit. I will most definitely return next season.

The food is precisely the level of creativity and skillful execution one expects from a restaurant with two Michelin stars. What puts it over the top is the unique and fun setting and quite possibly the best mixologist in London.

INCREDIBLE!! Absolutely delicious food with an incredible staff. The surroundings and the mood of the restaurant was also amazing! 100% recommend and worth the price.

BEYOND AMAZING experience. Better than any 3 Michelin star place I’ve been to. I can’t find the words to convey how exciting and unique this experience was. The chef and his team were so approachable and engaging. The service and food were spectacular, so imaginative, so flavorful, just perfect.

One of the best restaurant in London for anniversary

Without any doubt, the best restaurant experience I have ever had. Amazing food, wine and music. Absolutely wonderful to be able to watch such a group of professionals while they do the magic with the food for you, that level of dedication to every detail is amazing. If you ever get the chance to visit Kitchen table make sure you go there!

Fantastic food 😋 Fantastic service, Fantastic Atmosphere

AMAZING the whole experience was truly FABOULOOUS. from the we starters and drinks in the lounge to the meal itself in the dinging room it was a truly amazing experience the food was DELICIOUS and we had the Champagne flight which made and brilliant meal absoululty FANTASTIC. the service was superb and the theatre excellent

A fascinating, 5 hour, tasting experience. James Knappett, the chef-owner and the team are one of a kind. Highly skilled, energetic, with tons of knowledge. A place where you get to interact not only with stunning courses but also with the ones who make them. A warm, friendly and welcoming environment is waiting for you to experience. Professionals, extremely respectful and knowledgeable people at your service, willing to help with any questions or request. This is the best 2 Michelin Star restaurant we've been so far. See you again, Socrates

Amazing food as usual, wonderful non-alcoholic paring, very generous portions in both food and drinks, £1k well spent for 2.

Such a brilliant concept. You sit around the kitchen and watch everything. The staff are so warm and so good to see their skill, first hand. The interaction with us was so friendly and informative. Food blows you away. Definitely would return. Absolutely a 2 star hopefully a 3 star very soon. 🤞

The price is high but worthy of what you get. They are pushing for three stars here as every time I have come with my husband we have loved every single course. The atmosphere, the wine, the staff, it is always 10/10.

Fantastic, engaging, and delicious experience. The service begins in the front lounge area with wonderfully curated cocktails (and mocktails) and canapés. Then, you and 18 or so very lucky people move to the back “kitchen table” to your front row seat for the show. It’s such an honor to watch Chef James and his team move about the kitchen and prepare the courses, taking the time to explain each one and engage in some banter. It’s a Michelin experience unlike any other. I ordered the vegetarian menu, which was phenomenal. Our favorite courses were the mushroom, quince, quail, and truffle. Sandia governs the wine and champagne (and soda) tastings with excellence, knowledge, and a kind demeanor - she turned us on to champagnes we’ve never had elsewhere! After dinner drinks back in the lounge were great and also gave us the opportunity to chat with some of Chef’s team. The bartender demonstrated his superb ice cube cutting technique and inspired us to try at home with our own cocktails. Shoutout to Chanel for wonderful service and recommendations.

One of the best places to eat around here

Just for balance, lets start with the positives: Lovely dining room and setting, really friend bartended who made some exceptional cocktails and was a general delight, cool wine cellar. The negatives: Incredibly expensive for what it was, I found the sommelier a bit disinterested and a complete lack of flavour in the majority of courses. There were a couple of highlights (BBQ lobster was excellent). But the food was broadly lacking in flavour, seasoning etc. I almost went home and tested for COVID. A spaghetti that seemed to be in a water sauce, cucumber from Matts farm (i challenge you to taste the difference between this and tesco cucumber), venison that had been improperly rendered. I could go on. I really don't know what Michelin are thinking giving this two stars, its barely on 1 star level (and that's being generous). Save your money and go to the plethora of other options in London.

What a culinary experience! Each dish was a surprising mix of flavors and textures. We were there for dinner, which is offered as a fixed menu, with all 19 guests sitting around the kitchen. While you expect the food in a 2-star-Michelin to be fantastic (and it certainly is!), I was really blown away by the non-alcoholic drink pairing they provided with each course, since I don’t enjoy wine. Just wow - so much of the flavors of the dishes were captured in those accompanying drinks. It was incredible. Service is fantastic, attentive and super-happy to explain every course and/or wine to great detail. Furthermore they all seemed to know our first names - simply spectacular hospitality. Every detail was well-thought-out as soon as we walked through the door. To sum up my experience here in one word: Unbelievable! I really want to come back :-)

Amazing experience. Everything was more than perfect. The food, the team, the wine and non alcoholic-pairing. Loved it. Thank you!

o be completely honest and frank it was outrageously expensive for an evening which really wasn’t that worth the cost because a bill of 1200£ For 2 pax under no circumstances would make you feel like it was “worth it” for 1 meal. We feel like there were a lot of “hidden costs” and the restaurant hasn’t been upfront about charges in general. Firstly, the menu is priced at 250£ per person for food. However, at NO point nor anywhere on your website does it say what the menu is priced at. I think when we booked at resy it gave a range but that was it. There was no email either from KT stating this is the menu price. When I got the email of the wine pairing again I had to ask - what is the cost for the soft pairing / cake supplement etc. Basically if you don’t inquire it’s just blank emails being shot out. However the email sent by Sarah said the wine pairing you don’t need to book in advance only the soft pairing which we weren’t interested in. Even the cake that was provided and the truffle supplement - I had to ask how much these were which is quite awkward to do at a Michelin star restaurant and I cannot understand why it isn’t provided in the email / written down and provided to the client rather than them asking the questions. And to be completely Honest - 30£ for a SLICE of cake is outrageous. The cake really wasn’t worth that nor was it written happy anniversary anywhere like Sarah had said on email as I said it’s not for a bday but an anniversary. Then on the day..whilst the experience was nice like I said above definitely wasn’t worth 1200++ for 2 persons. The stools in the main restaurant are EXTREMELY uncomfortable to be sitting on for 3-4 + hours! I myself got off and had to “stretch my legs” 3 times and then it blocks the passage for others to exit and enter. I mean for the price you are paying surely a restaurant of KT’s calibre should have made this much more comfortable? It really felt like a pack of sardines in a small room. Very intimate and close to all other guests when you are there with your other half / your group. It isn’t an experience I am going on to get to know other guests… which I felt the way the seating was I was forced to do as I couldn’t sit in complete silence without interacting with someone sitting so close to me. We then get to the end of the evening (I think it was one of the last few courses) when Jim (I think?) was telling the wine pairing guests that there was a premium wine for one of the courses. So I asked Jim if we could have a glass to try. He gladly obliged. At no point we’re we bought a menu to show us the price for this and in our naivety we did think that even if there was a charge it would be minimal given not only the amount we are spending but also because we were celebrating an occasion that would be at least one thing that KT would be doing for us. Anyway, like I said before it is extremely weird and strange to at that point even ask saying “oh before you bring a glass, how much is it for” given we have NO idea that it would be £110 for one glass?! For one glass? I understand it is a premium wine but if the wine pairing cost was provided to us as £160 (again different to what our friends were told) how is it that 1 glass of that is 110 and the rest is 50£? Makes no sense even then. Like I said reading the reviews on Google / tripadvisor AnD our own friends telling us their experience of the “glass” was slightly different. Therefore I genuinely think not only will I definitely not be coming back to KT but it ruined our anniversary evening as well and I doubt I would be recommending KT to others too which is a shame because some of the courses were really really good and we were thinking we could come again till we got the bill. So this is really to tell KT that you should be upfront with your customers being a restaurant of such a high calibre. Because I truly truly feel cheated and misinformed. I informed KT management of this as well and they didn’t care or take any action.

It's such a shame to write this review but it's worth people noting the pitfalls of the new way they take your booking. The Kitchen Table has been my favorite restaurant in London for many years, I've been many times and have supported them through their early years. I had a table booked for this evening for 3 people at 6pm. Two things happened, one I misjudged the booking and thought I'd booked October, secondly my step father was taken ill and I wasn't able to make it at short notice. I know both these things are my fault but... £1,035 taken, they even wanted the service charge!!! No discount offered for a re-booking. I accept they have to cover themselves but that's greed of a whole different level. Anyone that can't offer a small solution to that mistake quite frankly shouldn't be in business. The foods good, the fella that owns the place is a nice bloke but this is just a joke, sadly another London restaurant that's got lost up it's own backside. Make sure you can 100% go on the night as there's no room to cancel.

A perfect food tour, the soft drinks are amazing, the chef is a gourmet artist, he controls every ingredient very well, and the transition of the dishes is also perfect, if you have a sufficient budget, this restaurant is a very good choice

The food and overall experience here was amazing. Delicious food throughout a number of courses. I had the non-alcoholic pairing, as well, and it felt just as thoughtful as everything else. You get to sit in a U shape looking directly into the prep area. I was so impressed by how efficiently the entire team behind the counter worked together. The staff was also great with questions, suggestions, and any talk about visiting London.

Incredible! If you want to be treated to 5 star service and fine dining prepared right in front of you then this is a no brainer! Be willing to pay for the quality but it is so worth it!

Might be the best meal of my life. A relaxed atmosphere, watching the dishes develop into perfection and then eating them in front of the chef who clearly loves to watch diners love his food. 10 stars out of 5 for me. If you get the chance go - it is wonderful.

I had high expectations, and Kitchen Table greatly exceeded them. The food here was fantastic - fresh, creative, and delicious. Chef James Knappett worked magic right before our very eyes. I loved the open kitchen concept and the theater-style seating. The service was also impeccable. Every staff member was incredibly gracious and welcoming. Best of all, the restaurant didn't feel stuffy at all. Contrary to what you might normally expect from a two Michelin starred restaurant, Chef Knappett playfully chastised me after I stirred one of my sauces two times after he had instructed us to stir just once. He then pointed to a tiny flower petal that was still on my plate and said "that's edible." I loved the playfulness and irreverence. The entire meal took 5 hours. So, prepare yourself for a marathon. But it's well worth it and I would highly recommend grabbing a seat at the Kitchen Table.

Hands down best restaurant in London. Every time has been exceptional!

Stolen not foraged - the website says "using meticulously sourced and foraged seasonal British ingredients" in fact the flowers used as an edible garnish on the plate of this two michelin star £100+ plus a head restaurant are stolen from the wildflower meadow planted in the olynpic park in E20. I'd been wondering why the wildflowers in the park had been steadily depleted until I found one of the chefs stuffing various flowers into a bag. This wildflower meadow is planted by professional gardeners using public money not only for beauty but for biodiversity and to attract pollinators. So not only is this stealing of the lowest kind but also it is wanton vandalism

Simply put, one of the most memorable dining experiences I've ever known.

Fantastic experience. The food is great and the idea of being close to the kitchen watching the people working is amazing . I would say that two minor negative points are that the seats are very close to each other being in someway uncomfortable and difficult to have a private conversation and the wine pairing was not as great as I would imagine for a restaurant of this level. But a well deserved 2 * !

This was my second visit to the restaurant; after a renovation, they made the stools more comfortable. Unfortunately the restaurant did not represent any sense of value in the first or second visit. I have been to a total of 62 Michelin stars in 43 restaurants (ibout 30 restaurants being at 1 star and another 15 restaurants with 2 or 3 stars) across the UK and Europe. Kitchen table is far too expensive for the food that you get, even if the glassware is fancy. This is immensely exacerbated by the fact that, from July 2022, they are imposing a minimum £150 spend on drinks ON TOP OF the £300 on food. In short, they are forcing you, whether you like to on not, to go for the wine pairing or other drinks package. This goes against any customer-centred approach for those that don't want to drink more than a glass or frankly some water.

There's a reason you have to wait months to get a table, it is totally divine! The food is out of this world, the chefs are incredible, the sommeliers know their stuff and are just wonderful! The wine is very reasonably priced, not overpriced at all! It is an expensive dinner for us normal folk but I think it is well worth the money as a treat! I cannot wait to go back.... when we can get a table in another 6 months! Keeping an eye out for when James Knappett get his 3rd star! * * *

氛围感特别好，open kitchen让人恍惚间有参与感；菜式和摆盘都有日料的影子，甚至有一道菜的配酒就是清酒；松露异常出色，淡淡的，给pasta增加了风味，又不会抢了味道，甜点很有创意，当面制作的过程很有看点，口感也优秀

This place was excellent from start to Finnish. The service I’d go so far to say the best I’ve ever had. Menu was fish heavy which I was very happy with but could be a turn of for some. Being able to see the food being made and ask questions about it was great. If you love food and fine dinning this is must visit.

Not the best intimate open kitchen dining experience let alone a 2 Michelin Star. The restaurant reminds you that it has 2 Michelin Stars from the entrance to every corner in every room. For the price of £250 per person we were greeted with TAP WATER upon arrival. I personally think that the purpose of an intimate open kitchen dining experience should be intimate and interactive. But the only interaction we had was the introduction of every dish when it’s presented, then the head chef pulls out his iPhone and starts replying messages on about 5 occasions throughout the night. The rest of the time we were left to watch the chefs run around and the head chef picking food with his fingers and eating them, then playing on his phone. I understand that head chefs need to taste the food but the proper way should be done with a clean spoon or fork every time, not the fingers that’s been playing on a phone that has millions kind of bacteria and germs on, let alone that you shouldn’t be on the phone in the first place. The food overall is decent, not the best I’ve had, not the worst I’ve had. Total of about 20 different bite size courses/dishes (including the appetisers and all of the different desserts). All of the courses had lots of flavours it was like a rollercoaster for the taste buds but then nothing really stood out in the end. Well maybe the main course Duck, because it was the worst dish of the night for me. The bill was just over £600 for the 2 of us, and we didn’t order any drinks. For this price, I really expected much better. My girlfriend really hated the main duck dish and took only one bite, but no chef or waiter came and asked why. Well I thought this was the whole point of this intimate open kitchen dining experience? Where we discuss the cooking and the food? Kitchen table has been operating for over 10 years and gained 2 Michelin stars from 2021. From this experience I feel that the head chef / owner has really lost his passion on gastronomy and cooking. All I see is a tired chef who’s probably overworked himself and has turned his passion into a money making machine.

Food simply incredible ... sitting round the kitchen it was wonderful theatre as well as breathtakingly good food. The work that goes into each of the 22 courses/dishes was incredible and no course/dish disappointed. However, one thing left a very sour taste. During the meal we were asked if we wanted to have a glass of red (2006 Stellenbosch) to go with a particular course and we said yes. The bill came and they charged us £80/glass. Maybe my mistake for not asking, but if you are going to charge that amount for a glass of wine, then you should tell me ... ridiculous. An amazing evening and while the food at £250/person is most definitely at the high end, it was worth every penny. I cannot recommend an evening here enough, but beware of surreptitious practices with the wine!

What an amazing experience. We got luck with a last minute reservation but you must book in advance. The service was excellent and the food was so delicious. A very unique and special evening out in London.

Another amazing dinner at this fantastic restaurant/dining experience. Definitely arrive early and stay late after dinner. Lovely staff, great food & ambiance. Booking for another visit soon.

Fantastic dining experience. Highly recommended

Incredible experience with good foods and drinks. Tried both wine and soft matching, very thoughtful and tastes well with food.

The phrase 'kitchen theatre' in the description sums it up perfectly. Watching the chefs interact with the diners and each other right in front of you as they finish dishes of the highest class is a truly special experience. The service ran like clockwork and the staff were also extremely knowledgeablen and accommodating. Anyone with an appreciation for great food should have this on their restaurant bucket list; it took me 3 years to make it here but it was well worth the wait.

loved every part of it from service to food. I wish I could go there more often but it is quite tricky to get a space and obviously the price isnt cheap but it is worth every penny if you are a food lover you will put it on top of your list of your favorite restaurant in London, and actually even you're not a foodie you might become one!

One of the best meals in London. The chef and staff were outstanding.

Food was very good. The dining setup is also very cool where you can watch the food being prepared. However, everything else leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Since reopening they’ve completely jacked their prices, which is acceptable enough for the food, but it’s all the other bits that are annoying. It cost £9 for an incredibly average magic rock beer (£1 in Tesco) that was old and flat. £5 for water was taking the mick when you are paying so so much for the food. It was about £85 for the soft drink pairing! There was also a mandatory 15% service charge added on to the bill. The staff were very nice but the service itself was overly formal and somewhat clunky. The bill was similar to what I paid at the fat duck, but I would argue the fat duck is superior in almost every way. It actually felt like good value for money there whereas this place certainly did not. The food itself was great and worth the high prices. It was everything else that let it down.

Prob in my top five in London so far, this place definitely worth the two Michelin stars and I would say sits around the benchmark for that level of cooking. Lots of care and attention into every dish and every diner. The beef course possibly the best beef dish I've eaten. I would say that for a 2* place we are starting to push the boundaries of acceptable pricing though - getting on for 3* cost wise.

Amazing tasting menu,great service,great 2 Michelin Stars food fairly priced.

We were trying to decide what to order in for my birthday and liked the look of Home by James Knappett selection of dishes, so this is what we went with. Delivery arrived am on Friday and we were not disappointed with our choices of food. It took us 2.5 hours to get through all the courses but was great fun and something you have to just get on with in our current climate. This is somewhere we would visit once this lockdown is over.

I ordered the £250, 11 course tasting menu as a special ‘at home’ dining experience for my girlfriend’s lock-down birthday. The box was beautiful, but inside the items were placed in a haphazard fashion and were numbered with marker-pen by hand. Deciphering the different ingredients for each dish was tricky because the handwriting was so bad and some labels had come off completely. When we did arrange each dish’s ingredients we found that fudge and ravioli were missing. Eliminating two dishes from the menu, and leaving us somewhat disappointed from the start. We replied to the restaurant’s email and received no response. Perhaps it’ll come today. But it was a special day so we did our best to enjoy what food had been delivered. Delivery takes place on Fridays only and our meal was scheduled for Saturday but no instructions were provided in relation to storage of the box - we transferred everything to the fridge just in case! Firstly, the wine was excellent. A very delicate refreshing champagne that slips down too easily. Parker-house rolls with truffle butter were very good, but we felt that they probably would have been better the day before. There’s no point baking everything fresh daily then only delivering on Fridays! Crispy Chicken skin was interesting in flavour but hadn’t travelled particularly well and was partially crumbled. It was not possible to achieve the restaurant appearance in the photos. I found the bacon jam oddly under-seasoned but my girlfriend did not. The dish was enjoyable regardless. Pumpkin soup wasn’t very special - a bland orange emulsion paint with little flavour. The croutons and sauce were good but I wouldn’t rush out for the dish again. Scallops were big, fat and juicy. These were the star of the meal. Mushroom Ravioli was missing so we ate the Parmesan sauce and truffles etc. with Tesco’s dried fusilli instead. We were left wondering whether the salty sauce was designed to enhance the flavour of some unknown delight. This dish is listed at £25 per head so we were left feeling robbed. Brill en pappilotte was OK, but cooked unevenly possibly due to our oven. My portion was slightly under. The subtle flavour of the fish was overpowered by the leeks. My girlfriend said she enjoyed the dish but it wasn’t very good in my opinion. I enjoyed the dish with pears, but my girlfriend found the combination of textures a little too strange and questioned the freshness. The wild garlic sauce was a bright colour, but again the flavour, like the soup was lacking flavour and more like paint than food. These soups/sources need refinement in my opinion. The Canelle’s were nice but not a patch on the freshly cooked ones from a coffee-shop I know, and the fudge was missing completely. I had to do all the washing-up. This could and should be better. The box needs to be delivered when you want it, not on Fridays. The dishes need to be properly labelled, sorted and subdivided into dishes to make it as easy as possible for the diner. Items should not be missing. Some dishes need rethinking, or repackaging for travel and storage. Storage instructions are required for the box. The price needs to take into account that the restaurant service is not being provided. On the whole, problems aside, we had fun and that’s the main thing. But we could have had the same fun without disappointment at a much lower cost if we had gone elsewhere. I won’t be ordering another box, and will probably stay away from the restaurant as a result of this experience. Sad-face!

Hicimos nuestro pedido durante el fin de semana para una entrega a domicilio el viernes pasado. Así es como funciona esto durante la crisis del C-19.Estamos encantados con la cena que tuvimos el viernes pasado.Rápidamente nos olvidamos de una entrega algo retrasada y nos divertimos mucho preparando los suculentos platos que disfrutamos muchísimo.Realmente una gran experiencia basada en ingredientes de excelente calidad y preparación profesional.Esto estaba muy bien empaquetado con recetas claras que conducían a una gran diversión.Sentimos que nuestra casa era como un restaurante de 2 estrellas para una cena.Esperamos volver a hacerlo en casa o en su lugar cuando vuelvan a abrir.

Absolutely phenomenal. The experience was astounding, a lot of care and love have went into making each dish. The presentation of both the dishes and the chefs were commendable. But the flavours!! As a pescetarian mostly vegetarian sometimes - the flavours were undeniably superb.

Amazing experience. Every dish was carefully thought out and explained but most importantly, the flavors are pretty insane. Go.

One of the best restaurants in all of London. I’ve been to core, the Ledbury, clove club Gordon Ramsay and many more. This is one of the best and if you really love food and want to appreciate it and watch the chefs work then this is the best restaurant in London. Every table is a chefs table so you get to see the chefs work and talk to them throughout the night. All the dishes were amazing with nothing that didn’t work. I think it’s better to come as a 2 top as you are all facing the chefs so talking between 4 would be hard. I would highly recommend and will definitely be back. It’s worth the money

The whole experience was awesome, as this is not one of those obnoxious michelin star restaurants, that are all about appearances, without having any substance. Kitchen Table is a relaxed environment with friendly staff that interact with you and most importantly the food is exquisite! It's expensive but it's so good that the cost won't bother you. 5 stars are not enough for this. I've been to several michelin star restaurants and I wouldn't visit most of them again but I would eat every night at Kitchen Table, if I could! :-)

Best food and service ever. Highly highly recommend if you can get a booking!

What an incredible experience. Not just a meal but a phenomenal night of entertainment too. Sat around the kitchen you get to observe the masters in action, watch how precisely they cook food and the details involved in preparation. The head chef also comes around and has a chat with you as you eat as well. The food itself was awesome. 14 courses of pure heaven. Such a variety of food but each course is phenomenal. Hands down the best meal and food experience I have had. This restaurant is a must visit.

Amazing dining experience. Very friendly staff on arrival and the whole experience is exceptional. We booked the "12 course tasting menu" but once counted, we realised we'd eaten 17 different courses! Every course is amazingly tasty and speaking to and watching the chefs in action is magnificent.The only negative thing about the experience is the trick the staff play at the end of the night to make more money. We were told by the staff; "to round off the meal is a selection of tea or coffee" and then again "with a choice of aperitif". Little did we know that these were NOT included in the meal and we were charged for both!

We had a choice of 12 or 14 courses, the 14 was courses was around £200/head. You will need to book several weeks in advance as they only sit 20 people (around the kitchen table). To be able to watch the a dozen chefs cook and prepare 14 courses in front of you is an incredible experience. It’s got 2 Michelin stars, and both very well deserved. As you sit around the kitchen table (for 2-3 hours) the experience works best for couples.

This is an amazing dinning experience, the layout is like watching the chefs on a stage! The food was top quality and the main man cane out and had a chat with us!

Mi primera visita a la mesa de la cocina. No puedes ver el restaurante desde la calle, busca el bar Bubbledogs. Dentro del bar y al final de la sala se encuentra la entrada a la mesa de la cocina, que también es un "bar" con 20 asientos alrededor de la cocina abierta. Desde su asiento en el mostrador, puede ver a los chefs trabajando y conversar con ellos.Solo hay un menú (12 cursos) con la opción de actualizar a 14 cursos. Elegí el menú corto con vinos a juego y agregué las virutas opcionales de trufa blanca a mi plato principal.Solo mencionaré algunos puntos destacados del menú, aunque todo fue una delicia: cada plato (pequeño) fue hábilmente construido, y para mí no hubo decepciones en absoluto. La piel de pollo es, según tengo entendido, un clásico, mientras que la porción de pan es extraordinaria: el pan es suave y ligero como una pluma, y la mantequilla se basa en grasa de carne y cebollas que realmente agregan sabores. Una verdadera delicia de hecho.También la trucha servida sobre una tostada era genial: pan crujiente, pescado suave y "condimentos" tanto dulces como ligeramente amargos. Rodaballo fue servido con una fina rodaja de foie gras en la parte superior, que estaba muy delicioso. De la selección de postres, mi favorito era la pera con crema pastelera, apio, chocolate blanco y praliné en la parte superior: dulce, crujiente y ligero, exactamente como debería ser un postre.Los vinos también eran muy buenos, elegidos por el sumiller, que sabía exactamente lo que estaba haciendo. Un caballero con un vasto conocimiento y pasión, y con un buen sentido del humor también.Después de la cena se sirvió café expreso con algunos dulces.Sinceramente me gustó esta experiencia gastronómica. En primer lugar, la comida estaba en un nivel superior, y cada plato tenía tantos detalles en cuanto a sabores y texturas, extremadamente impresionante. Además, me gustó el ambiente: bastante íntimo y una buena interacción con los chefs, que participaron en la presentación de los platos. Realmente entiendo por qué este restaurante en pocos años se ha convertido en uno de los pocos restaurantes de dos estrellas en Londres. Gracias a todo el personal por hacer que sea una gran noche.

Amazing food and a fabulous setting! I had a wonderful evening, can't wait to go back!

Staff forget to give back the item that was in the cloakroom..... extremely unprofessional

Great meal and fun to sit around the kitchen and watch and interact with the chefs. We had about 18 courses over about 3 1/2 hours so be prepared!

Unfortunately not as good as we were hoping, infact we were very disappointed. Chef and his team were charming, and the meal was wonderfully engaging but... many of the courses we thought were tasteless. These small taster courses in my opinion should get your taste buds and brain all in a wherrrr as you discover the flavour and texture combinations. It started with the first course when we looked at each other and both said 'can you taste the crab?', the answer was a sad no - no matter how hard we tried to pick it out. A few standout couses did have us humming appreciaion to ourselves, the chicken skin sandwich, the sea trout with morels and the blueberry course were amazing. Such a shame as we really wanted this to be a memorable night for all the right reasons. It was fantastic to watch everything being prepared in the kitchen whilst probing the chefs with questions, but the food was disappointing for the price. Sorry guys. Edit: Its general good practise to respond to your customer reviews, I guess you aren’t bothered what your customers think.

We arrived at Friday evening for the 1800 set. So we where in the first group of the day and where sitting around the first half of the kitchen table. And there where room for around 16 people around the table. Everyone at the table could choose between a 14 or 16 piece tasting menu that is mostly the same. And the first 8 is served at the same time, and then the next group gets the same treatment. The food where great, the drink menu where good, and the service and atmosphere where excellent.

We were in the 1st sitting at 18.30 . The seating is very simple bar stools around the kitchen counter , James and his assistants are right in front of you preparing superb food that has a simple one word explanation on the menu . We had the 15 course at £150 pp and the wine pairing at £76 pp , our total bill was £541 !!! The food was great but if we went again we would choose our own wine and not go with the pairing as the quantity seemed a little on the short side . The restaurant has retained it 2 Michelin stars and rightly so but it comes at a price.
