Matthew's Kitchen Seafood and Grill in Barnet

Cenamos en familia esta noche y la pasamos fabulosamente. Mi tía tenía la parrilla mixta de mariscos que ella dijo que era devine, yo y mi hija tuvimos los moules - fritas y mi tío tenía el plato especial de salmón miso y todos los platos eran maravillosos. El personal era muy acogedor y atento y tuvimos una noche realmente encantadora. Sin duda volveremos de nuevo.

Vine aquí para mi cena de cumpleaños. El interior del restaurante y los asientos eran preciosos. Comienzo: Llegué a tiempo. El langostino tigre estaba lleno de sabor y cocinaba a la perfección. Mains Los mariscos que incluían más gambas, mejillones de pescado con un lado de patatas eran increíbles. Abundante en el plato no pude terminarlo todo. Nos saltamos desiertos cuando estábamos llenos. Bebidas Los cócteles eran geniales En general: Precio razonable. Gran atención al cliente. Sin duda volveríamos.

Anoche visité el restaurante en Whetstone, Londres, N 20. Es un restaurante de pescado así que pensé que sería seguro pedir mejillones. La comida comenzó mal cuando uno de nosotros pidió el especial, filete con papas fritas con una copa de vino. Pidió cambiar el vino por una cerveza. Esto no era posible, y parecía un poco malo. Los vegetales equivocados fueron servidos. El moule se veía genial, mouke regordete grande pero horriblemente exagerado. Ellos amablemente acordaron hacerlos de nuevo. Esta vez terminado. Fue una lástima que el mole se viera bien. Creo que alguna vez me han servido bajo moule cocido antes. No los comí porque me preocupaba el riesgo de gastroenteritis. Normalmente no sería tan exigente, pero el sorbete de frambuesa estaba helado, y más como una granita. En su haber, no cobraron por el dinero. De todas formas, esperé un día para escribir esto, pero estaba tan irritado que he compartido lo que fue una experiencia decepcionante.

¡Qué encantador restaurante! Tuvimos un hermoso almuerzo de moluscos y fletán ahumado. El servicio por Angela era encantador y muy eficiente; nos pareció que era fantástico. Volveremos muy pronto!

Vine aquí para una cena de cumpleaños, ¿qué puedo decir de este lugar? Una gran joya en el corazón de Whetstone High Road. Desde el momento en que llegamos, todo el personal de espera era amable y educado. Cuando llegó la comida, el marisco estaba fresco, sabroso y delicioso! La decoración interior se sentía muy acogedor también. Sin duda volveré y recomendaré a otros.

Delicious!! Simply delicious- every single mouthful I ate… we visited this week for a special occasion dinner and all 8 guests couldn’t stop commenting on how good each course tasted. The ceviche was full of flavour & the seafood mixed grill had the best scallops I’ve eaten in years! Service was welcoming & professional, this is one of Whetstones best restaurants and deserves the 5 star rating - thank you for a super evening.

This was a lovely experience as not many fish restaurants in North Wales. Angela made us feel very welcome. Lovely decor with a relaxed vibe. We had cocktail, wine, beer, fab starters and fish was amazing would definitely recommend

Absolutely amazing!! The service is super, the food was delicious. Highly recommend. Very reasonable priced. Definitely one of the best restaurants in the area.

Out for a birthday meal. Good service, everything looked and tasted amazing Lovely atmosphere. Lovely staff, very helpful. Will definitely be coming back

I had been here several times and it has always been decent and although I have never written a trip advisor review before I now feel it necessary. I can categorically state I will not be returning as me, my wife and the couple we visited Matthews Kitchen with all came down with awful food poisoning from the oysters and have all had to take time off work. I informed the restaurant who didn't seem too sympathetic and were more defensive if anything, telling me to go to A&E to get a blood test to make sure. I can be certain as the oysters were the only food we had which was the same and all of us became very sick at exactly the same time afterwards. I do hate to write a negative review but seeing how sick my wife was and the pain I was in I suggest they should change suppliers before others get sick!

Best Seafood Restaurant in London without close competition. The incredible food was complemented with nice wine and top class service. Thanks to all staff including the lovely waitress who went above and beyond.

We had a lovely evening at Matthew’s Kitchen. The food and service were both fantastic. The atmosphere was great too. Look forward to the next time!

Had an excellent meal .. sourdough bread starter was delicious and portion enough for three to four people . One of us had bouillabaisse (fish stew ) and I had the whole sea bass . Both tasted really good Matthew’s mess (made with passion fruit and mango) was exquisite.

We have been dining at Matthews Kitchen for many years now on an almost weekly basis. The chef has never failed to deeply impress and the warm welcome from Matthew, his sister and their colleagues is always warm, welcoming and friendly. Having tried most of their wonderful fish dishes over the year I am always excited to go back. By far the best restaurant in Whetstone

We had the set menu. I was a bit surprised when the waitress told us the portions were smaller than usual as this is not normally the case with a set menu costing £21 for 2 courses, but anyway we ordered a few side dishes to be on the safe side. That proved to be insufficient! The food was decent enough, but for a restaurant marketing itself for its sea food and fish, there was precious little fish on the plate. The fish taco starter consisted of one thin strip of fish and the sea bass fillet main course is best described as a thin slither. The fish and chips was more like a child's portion. After the meal we visited the supermarket opposite to grab something to eat at home which probably best sums up the experience.

I came to the restaurant with my family and it was delicious. The food was fresh and cooked perfectly. The staff were kind and welcoming. 100% recommend

We have eaten here a few times and it never disappoints Beautiful flavours really well cooked amazing service. The deal on the mussels are worth every penny, my son had two large bowls and he said they are some of the best he has ever tasted. My seafood pasta was full of flavour Even though my son is 27years old they kindly gave him ice cream with a candle in for his birthday.!! Thank you

Great service, food excellent and catered to our individual needs with particular requirements. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It's like this every time.

We all eat out a lot. Starters mains and not forgetting the cocktails were 10/10. Cocktails were perfect! Didn’t have a bad thing to say about anything. Would definitely be coming back!

We went for lunch. The dining room was empty but we still felt very comfortable and welcome. The food was excellent - ceviche, octopus, grilled prawns, tuna steak - and cooked to perfection. There was a good choice and it was hard to choose! What elevated this to a solid 5 was the service. The waitress was charming, unobtrusive but still helpful and proactive. We will definitely go back. We are quite hard to please, and MK hit the spot.

First visit to Matthews Kitchen and definitely will not be the last! Absolutely amazing food, service and atmosphere. The best moules mariniere I have ever had! Thank you!

The staff were welcoming and delightful from the moment we stepped inside the restaurant. This was a birthday celebration meal which was excellent and beautifully presented. The service was attentive, helpful and courteous. The restaurant from the outside is under-stated but it more than makes...

I was taken to Matthews on my birthday. I had ceviche and lobster linguini. The food was absolutely amazing. The service was very attentive. The ambiance was warm. I could not recommend this restaurant highly enough and it’s in my local high road! We had...

So delighted to have found this restaurant which from now on will be the go to place for family celebration meals. I went with my mother yesterday and immediately was made to feel like a valued customer. The informally elegant room is high ceilinged, attractive...

Never been to the area before so looked online and found this restaurant. The food was amazing and cooked fresh, the flavours were fabulous and spot on. Reasonably priced and staff very helpful and courteous. Even though we live over an hour away we will...

Had a very expensive, very disappointing evening at this restaurant. The Manager was rude, service slow and we ordered lobster which was tiny and had literally one bite of food, an insult to serve, costing £32. The truffle chips didnt taste or smell of truffle...

Excellent food, served with a smile. Fish was fresh and you could tell that it was cooked with passion. Menu was a bit limited, and as all fish was fresh they had run out of tuna and Dover sole... but somehow thus demonstrated just how...

Came here on a drizzly Saturday lunchtime and we were welcomed with warmth and friendliness at this stylish North London gem. Diners around us indulged in fantastic Platters of seafood and fries, but we opted for a delicious Tuna steak which was cooked perfectly with...

Really, really disappointed in our recent experience. We’ve been to this restaurant many times and always had a lovely experience. This time we were met with very stressed servers and a forty minute wait. It was clear before we were even seated, and stood at...

Came here for dinner for a birthday based on a recommendation. Food was incredible! Personally feel its a little expensive/over priced but quality is good. Would return!

The best seafood that we ate in London so far. Great place, cozy atmosphere and very friendly staff. We would definitely visit again and would recommend to friends and family.

This was the first time we'd been to the restaurant in this incarnation. We came for an anniversary celebration and thinking about the prospect of some mussel madness, but ended up on the better side of a couple of lobsters (2 x MK for two)...

we came for my grandma’s birthday 🥳 the food was amazing,great service and great atmosphere highly recommend!!!

I brought my mum here for our first trip out to a restaurant since lockdown and we made the right choice. Excellent food and cocktails, great service and all round ambience. We're so glad Matthews Kitchen has survived the pandemic, having eaten equally memorably here...

We really enjoyed our evening at Matthew's Kitchen on the weekend. The food was really good, the service was great and it felt very safe (walking past other restaurants on the high st Matthew's Kitchen looked like it had the most spaced out seating plan)....

The dover sole was amazing cooked to perfection! The lobster was juicy, the chips were nice and crunchy, service was good I would definitely come back!

We had heard many good things about this restaurant and I finally booked a table for myself and husband. We were NOT disappointed!! Fabulous food and service even in the rather depressing Covid era!! 2 cocktails for £12! What's not to love. Now our favourite...

Matthews Kitchen is one is my favourite restaurants. The food is still great but as far as COVID is concerned they just don't appear get it - well at least when I went recently. Don’t be fooled by the thermometer (which they didn't use) and...

Expertly cooked seafood throughout..attentive service and nice atmosphere. Cod and Plaice were excellent.

Take their special offers with a pinch of salt. We were driving past and saw that what used to be Chez Bobs had changed to Matthews kitchen seafood and Grill. It was a Monday night and although eat out to help out had officially ended...

All the food we ordered was delicious (which included oysters, lobster, Dover sole and steak amongst other things) and the service was excellent. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

We had been looking forward to visiting this restaurant but it really disappointed. We had the mixed (and expensive) starter, mains and a couple of desserts. The starter was not very substantial although it was presented well. The quality of the mains was okay but...

This place was extraordinary. Stumbled across it, before popping to our dinner reservation down the road and decided to go here instead. And we are so glad we did. The staff were amazing as soon as we walked through the door - masks on, sanitiser...

Went there tonight for the first time and I have to say the staff were really helpful, friendly .... Even when I dropped the pepper lid in my meal The food was very tasty, fresh and well presented, my seafood soup was full of flavour....

Surprisingly EXCELLENT local Fish restaurant. The chef is the owner - always a good sign. Grilled Dover Sole and accompaniments were exceptional! Fish and Chips - superb! The Eton Mess dessert was just sensational! Highly recommend this restaurant!

Just re-opened after lockdown, their Whetstone venue (they have a place in Crouch End too) has a very pleasant, airy, wood and tile vibe. Small menu focusing on mainly fish dishes, but with one or two meat options, they also have osyters, mussels, sea bass...

Called in after a funeral... had a lovely meal, however the bill was presented with our desert! Would’ve liked the chance to eat desert and finish our coffee before considering the £100 plus bill! Shame on the staff clearly clearing up and rushing us out...

I tried this restaurant for the first time and enjoyed a beautiful lunch here. It would have been another visit to our favourite pub but we decided to try here! I asked if there were vegan options, there were none, but nothing was too much...

Very nicely done fish dishes and interesting choices. Shame only 2 meat dishes as my mum only eats fish but I like a litle other and I have never had the balls to ask for the childrens meal chicken scnirzel and chips but it looks...

went this evening to this restaurant and find it very pleasant. the smoked haddock pate was delicious and the sea bass very good. was pleased that the waiter allowed us to taste the wine before we ordered one and the atmosphere excellent.

So, it's Saturday night and we are going out for dinner locally in North West London, to be precise, Whetstone, N20 with some friends. They book Matthew's Kitchen and we arrive at 8:00pm.....and the restaurant is not full. Four starters of which one was an...

I visited yesterday for lunch with my wife, one year old son and my parents. The decor is great and the service was exceptional. We ordered the smoked salmon, oysters and octopus for starters, each of which were great. The mains were all generous portions....

Had to kill some time and needed lunch! This was a god find, freshly cooked food and average price - £15 main course, although there were offers if starter or dessert required as well.

Had traveled in from Manchester, looking for a nice lunch. The two courses lunch choice for £13.50 was excellent, I had the smoked mackerel pate to start with and the Sea Bass as the main course, both excellent dishes.

Been meaning to go here for a while, ever since it opened 7 months ago. Excellent food, excellent service, simply decorated but comfortable.

What a find.....had a great evening, great menu and daily specials. So nice to find a restaurant who know what to do with Seafood. Highly recommended!

Early evening meal with friends. We enjoyed Happy Hour - 2 cocktails for the price of one. Excellent menu, beautifully presented and I thoroughly enjoyed the seafood. Friendly attentive serve and keen to please.

This is a very nice restaurant serving good quality food at a reasonable price. Tried the Fish Soup and the Fish and Chips which were excellent. Nice ambiance, decent service too and parking nearby.

Good choice on the menu and service was attentive. Had mussels and Octopus both seemed fresh. Booking advised but we were able to get in without booking.

My son and daughter-in-law treated me to dinner here. Upon arrival the restaurant looked beautiful (we’d dined at its predecessor). Service was exemplary. To start we shared Smoked Haddock and Leek Croquettes. I chose Half Lobster and Mussel Linguine, which was delicious. The others had...

Visited with my mum this evening, very impressed. Nice decor, service attentive. We had three courses, wine & cocktails - all top notch. I'd be happy to bring anyone here.

I had no difficulty in finding our full complement of 8 members of the Foodie Club to come to lunch again at Matthews Kitchen Seafood, which has proved to be one of the most popular of my choices. We all decided on the Chef's Special...

I went with sue the mrs and my son and partner Sarah Place is clean and well decorated I went for the galician octopus nice and tender Chris had the fish soup which was full of flavour similar to lobster bisque Sarah had the croquettes...

Food was great and with a good choice of fish.Service attentive but unobtrusive. Wine selection was wide ranging to suit most budgets. The atmosphere very friendly and although the restaurant was full it did not feel crowded. We will return.

There have been so many different restaurants on this site over the years and my husband and I thought we'd have lunch to try out this latest iteration. We chose from the chefs menu which was good value at £13.50 for 2 courses. We both...

Booked an early dinner. Great choice on the menu plus some "specials". We both chose the mussels with fries and got a free glass of wine each. The mussels were fresh and delicious. The wine very good also. Service was very attentive. Will definitely go...

Went there for lunch, great atmosphere. Food is to really good quality and fresh. The amaretto desert is one of the best I ever had. Highly recommend it.

Love the food I found Matthew Kitchen from Facebook and just looking the pictures I was thinking which day I’m going’ It’s happened i have too guests from Corsica and we have to treat them with sea food and we choose Matthews Kitchen:) I’m fish...

Went with my Husband and received a warm welcome for our dinner at Matthews. We really enjoyed the lovely food and service. The only thing that let it down was having to ask for the Chef (set) menu which they offer 4 days a week....

Beautiful food with excellent service. Party of 5, Bank Holiday late lunchtime. New restaurant taking over the previous owner. Tables at the back lovely marble tables and comfy seats. Very good wine selection although not selected on this occasion. All had the set menu for...

Food was cooked to perfection. Great G&T’s. Good service. Lots of options, and the seafood specials were lovely. Desserts were shared between 2, and after 2 courses, we were well sorted, but not over-stuffed, so perfect sizes. Thanks

It was my friends birthday and she wanted to try the recently opened Matthew's Seafood and Grill in Whetstone. The restaurants decor is lovely and you're made to feel welcome straight away. We soon noticed that on Mondays its ladies night so theres a special...

A really good restaurant in “our” bit of north London, at last. My daughter found this one although she lives outside London now, and asked to go there for her birthday. With her children and partner in tow Sunday lunch was the occasion. Although specialising...

My fiancee and I were walking in the area we just started live in and we decided to try as both of us enjoy seafood. It was not a problem that we did not book. It was superb service throughout the evening, so fast and...

The Foodie Group returned to Matthew's Kitchen in Whetstone on Sunday for lunch. We had all started out with the intention of trying the Sunday Roast, but once again were seduced by the excellent Prix Fixe Menu. Starters were delicious Moules in a wine and...

Baby Patrick (16 months old) told us from his binging that he loved the food! What he chose was cheese and tomato linguine. He enjoyed so much sucking up the linguine. Yet this little foodie felt that he wanted more, so he decided to grab...

I'm not a massive seafood fan but was taken here by my daughter and son in law. I liked everything on the menu bar one thing. So that converted me to seafood. The cod I had was cooked perfectly. My companions food looked and apparently...

The staff were welcoming, friendly and professional. The room was tastefully decorated and not over crowded. However the food was delicious. The specials amazing, tuna cooked to perfection and puddings luscious. It was my mum's birthday and the staff couldn't have been more alternative. Well,...

First visit tonight. Virtually told 'this is a seafood restaurant so why are you surprised that your 28 day aged Sirloin is like shoe leather' well I am sorry Matthew's kitchen if you sell a steak it should be a decent steak seafood restaurant or...

Nothing to get excited about with this restaurant - had to wait a while to be served. And then served food which was unimaginative. The seafood pasta had very little seafood and tasted of nothing, fish and chips was over cooked and when the piece...

We noticed this restaurant and were pleased- Whetstone High Road's first Fish Restaurant (there is a Fish and Chips shop) so we booked online for an evening meal just after New Year. We booked a babysitter and arrived to a closed restaurant. Not a good...

I've now eaten here four times - twice from the set menu and twice from the à la carte. Each time the quality of the fish has been superb. The portions on the à la carte are good and some on the set menu are...

We passed this restaurant at lunchtime and seeing they offered a 2-course lunchtime menu decided to give it a try. We had mackerel pate and smoked salmon for starters, both well presented and delicious, although the horseradish in the mackerel pate was perhaps slightly milder...

First time to this new restaurant. Food was delicious and staff were fantastic - nothing more to say apart from when can I go again !

Decisions, decisions.... excited at every visit by the amazing gastronomic experience. Cooked to perfection, beautiful presentation and flavours. You’ve got this Chef! See you again soon
