Sky Kong Kong in Bristol, City of

Wizzy is providing lunches until it closes on June 22! If you check their Instagram account before you go, you’ll know if there is lunch that day. As for dinner, it is available in two seatings every Friday and Saturday. The hours are incorrect. The lunch timings are roughly 12:30-13:30 but food may run out faster on some days. The lunch box is just £4.5 and you get generous portions and many options, different every day. It’s nourishing and delicious at the same time, honestly the highlight of my days working in the office! The dinner’s portions are huge as well, with so many courses. I’d recommend going there with others, but for lunch, it’s nice to go by yourself as well and have a chat with Wizzy who always has lots of insights to share about food, the environment, and her philosophy!

Best restaurant I've been to in ages. Laid back friendly atmosphere with inspiring and creative food pairings that taste delicious and full of goodness. The boldness of not having a menu is actually really refreshing and I loved not having to pick something off a menu for a change.

If you get a chance to eat here do it. Four courses for less than £20. BYO and cash only. Some of the best food I've ever had.

Food was ok? The fruit and crab salad was my favourite thing. Main was too salty and kind of a chore to get through. It was really boring to eat, flavor wise. I didn't like it. I like the rice mixed with nuts and potatoes though, that was nice. The desert was a generic chocolate mousse and I was hoping for something more interesting. Really hated the long table seating. It's not a friendly place for people who don't like crowds and loud noises. Also this is not the fault of the restaurant but it smells so bad outside (strong urine odour) and every time someone opens the door the smell wafts in and it was honestly so disgusting. Also we booked for 6:30 and the food didn't even start coming out past 7 so what was the point? 😭 We just had to sit around for 30 minutes waiting for food to even begin. I was really looking forward to this evening as this place was highly recommended to me but it was honestly very disappointing.

Favourite restaurant in the entire world. Wizzys cooking is to die for. Her love is evident in every bite and her community spirit is a beacon in Bristol! The way that she approaches her business is something I wish was more common in today's industry.

Note: this hidden gem is on the upper floor! Food tastes like home, made with love. Service is dedicated. Atmosphere is secluded, musty, authentic, homemade. Price is twenty pounds per person for all the meals. There's a bring your own alcohol policy in place, a small charge applies - well worth it. All the people are on one long table, dishes get served A hidden gem, alternative! And it should remain hidden, a hipsters vibe - it's that good. Most importantly, effort and love have been poured into this tiny crevice, culture pouring into the guests. Additional plus - you can buy home made kimchi. Show me a better place I'll wait.

Fantastic value and experience! So wonderful to be able to eat in an creative environment in this day and age of chain restaurants and inconsistent franchises. Great to support independent talented chef with ethical values and genuine care to give back to her community and be of service. Book it (if you can get a reservation that is!) you won’t regret it!

Unique experience, you’ll be able to eat lots of different dishes in one setting. I liked the concept of set menu and you get a lovely surprise in each course. We were absolutely full after the dessert so very good value for money as well. The only thing I would like to have had is the menu in detail and possibly the heritage of each dish? I wasn’t sure how a lot of things we ate were related to Korea. Probably because I don’t know enough about Korean cuisine. Anyway it was full of flavour and I was very happy to eat so many different kinds of food.

I wanted to love this place! I love an independent restaurant and SKK is that. Colourful vibrant food, but not THAT great. Restaurant was also cold and a bit grubby. Sorry, just being honest.

This is our 3rd time visiting with different friends each time. It has been a unanimous culinary delight each time and everyone has been in agreement. A wide variety of different and interesting food each time. Wizzy, the host, is absolutely lovely and very willing to talk about the food and cooking. It is very well worth a visit. Cash only and BYO, this is an awesome place to eat. Treat yourself (and it's very reasonably priced).

The chef was shouting at the waiter throughout the meal which was horrible. It’s a shame because the food was good but the atmosphere was tense… not very pleasant experience

Had the set menu, which changes daily. It was varied and well balanced, with top ups available for rice and kimchi. Our waiter Luke was welcoming and friendly 🙂

A great local find, shareing concept with no menu, Starters, Main and Dessert just appear. We some Tuna tartare with fresh fruits to start then whole fried Fish with Prawns & Shellfish & seared beef steaf with dill, Kimchee & pickles, then a chocolate dessert with Strwberries & Raspberrys. Based in an old shop its querky & good fun, One long table seats everyone (maybe 18 max)

I read online about this place and was curious to try it. The food was diverse and packed with flavor, offering a perfect balance of tastes. Seating is communal at one long table with other people so you get to meet and share a meal with strangers. We were quite lucky and had a lovely night. The venue has a humble charm that makes it feel like you're dining at a friend's place. It's a lovely concept.

Thanks for the wonderful food! A lady that cook for passion! I really admire her! She is so inspirational. Hope she can continue to cook and do what she enjoys! She explained to me the dishes and said like to let us try diff dishes from around the world. Thanks again!

Memorable meal. With an every-changing menu, it's great knowing anything you get there will be delicious

I'm not really sure what this restaurant is trying to be. We had a taster menu which consisted of a starter of some fruit, with confit pork. Both of which were nice, but took an hour to arrive. The main course was a series of mini dishes, all of which were pleasant, but didn't seem to have a cohesive theme. It included kimchee, mussels, omelette, whole prawns, potato in filo parcels, crispy anchovies, greek salad, korean chicken, and some others. This was also supported by a dish of rice with many - seemingly arbitrary - ingredients in it. The dessert was a chocolate mousse with various pieces of fruit in it. None of these dishes were by any means unpleasant, but it felt like an attempt to pack as many ingredients into a single meal as possible. None the less the food was well priced, though I did eat again when I got home.

Amazing food and a really nice atmosphere to make friends with others. It's a single long cosy table where you share a plate within your booked group. I went with another person and got served an amazing variety of food from cuisines ranging from Korea to the Mediterranean. Healthy, delicious food. Note it's BYOB, I'd recommend a bottle of white wine, which went really well with the food.

What a treat! The menu is more or less fixed, for each evening (unless you have any allergies - let the restaurant know). Many different tastes and ingredients, with so much of it clearly having a great deal of thought and experience brought to the creation. The food is served to all at around 7:00 PM. Seating is on each side of a long table, so you're able to talk to your neighbours about the food, what brought you there, and indeed anything else while you marvel at the excellent meal. Cash only, so leave your cards, phones, watches at home! One of the best experiences ever!

We had a great meal here with a really interesting menu. Its bench type seating so you are forced to chat with your neighbours and don’t forget to bring cash and your own alcohol. Its an alternative to the boring usual Asian “fusion” food and really worth a visit

Wizzy does an exquisite job of melding together the most unusual flavours into a coherent whole. Flavours from France combine with Korean ingredients, inviting the palette to a completely new experience. I would highly recommend this place to groups or couples as the experience of sharing a large plate of stewed fish in a fragrant broth is elevated when shared. While some dishes are very explorative and dare I say, eccentric, others combine warm flavours of beef, garlic and rosemary eliciting a feeling of nostalgia. Make sure to book in advance, send over your deposit and re-confirm! A one-chef kitchen is hard to run, so please be kind to the lovely staff. Also good sized portions for the price.

Not sure why this place has so many glowing reviews? The food was meh, a lot of it was cold and flavourless. The pear and blueberries in the chocolate moose was a bit bizzarre. At first the place seems pretty quirky but on closer inspection it seems pretty dirty. Wouldn't recommend

A well priced and interesting, albeit very bizarre meal. Lots of different cuisines on one plate that didn't necessarily go together.

Don’t trust them - I booked on line a week beforehand but made the mistake of not double confirming. We turned up at booked time to be told we didn’t have a table and there was no space for us. Not happy

Love this place. Top quality food, expertly prepared in understated surroundings. Highly recommended for something a little different.

As a visitor to Bristol I had never heard about Sky Kong Kong but I feel blessed that we managed to book in. Despite its basic frontage and mismatched but homely decor, the marvels that come out of that kitchen are a wonder to behold. No menu & BYO may put some people off but they shouldn't. This is the most wonderful food, made with love, care and thought. I didn't manage to get any photos of the food I was too excited to eat it. If I come back to Bristol this will be my first stop.

An incredible eating experience, which never fails to wow guests visiting Bristol. Book in advance and prepare to be delighted; each course can contain over 200 ingredients!

An absolutely amazing experience , have to go at least once if you live in Bristol . For 15 pounds a head we had some of the most amazing food of our lives. Can’t recommend enough.

Really cool place with communal dining and set menu that changes every day. The waitress was very friendly and explained all the dishes and the chef and owner came out to chat to us all at the end, you could see how passionate she is about what she does!

Absolutely delicious food. Friendly staff. Great price. Will be back! (2019). And we did go back. A lovely experience. The food was stunning; a delectable array of bite sized yumminess with more than 300 ingredients (the chef let us know) including pork (terrain with a Korean twist), okra, kimchi, mini fritters, prawns, chicken, hazel nuts, exotic fruits, and a leaf I couldn’t identify. Finished off with a chocolate and raspberry dessert. I could have taken some photos but I was too busy tucking in! Wonderful food, still at a great price. Thank you Sky Kong Kong X Lizzie

My favourite restaurant in Bristol, an absolute hidden gem!

Very delicious food! I had an authentic feeling of being in a friend's home. And an amazing host, who is super kind and generous and manages it all on her own.

We wanted to love it, but a few things interrupted the experience. Positive: The food was very nice (1 omnivore, 1 vegetarian). Ensure you tell the chef of dietary restrictions when booking, because it is a set menu. It’s a good value for £17.50 pp plus £3 corkage fee. The spicy kimchi was a standout! Constructive: The booking system left much to be desired. We were issued a 18:30 seating, yet the rest of the 15+ diners were issued a 19:00 seating, and none of us were served until the last latecomers arrived at 19:10. Two people who had a confirmed reservation were turned away due to overbooking, with nothing other than an apology.

Absolutely amazing food, brilliant service and a fantastic atmosphere. If you like trying different things and want to relax and have all your taste buds catered for then this is for you!

Had an amazing time at Sky Kong Kong - dinner was a single menu of three courses, taking account of dietary requirements but we didn’t know in advance what we would be eating. Fortunately no need - it was all delicious! Plenty of food and beautifully varied, served family style in a really unusual tucked away little venue with fresh produce and jars of preserves just stacked all around the tables. The chocolate mousse for dessert was great, very rich and caramelly! Really good value too. Definitely coming back.

Excellent food inside a quirky (think junkshop with an eastern flavour?) restaurant...loved the ambience and decor, oh and very reasonable prices to boot! P.s it's BYO (so don't forget)

Wizzy’s philosophy is all about making good food accessible to the wider public. Sky Kong Kong is a gastronomical firework display. Can’t wait to be a regular at this little gem.

I had been looking forward to eating at Sky Kong Kong for a long time, given its reputation. However, the experience was really disappointing. The take on Korean food was very peculiar - we were served lamb chops and a kind of beef pasty (which really did just taste like a ... meat pasty) along with some steamed salmon. The starter was an odd assortment of sliced fruit and vegetables which tasted much as a plate of plain, sliced fruit and veg might be expected to. Most strange was the kimchi which had the texture of jam, rather than the distinctive crunch which defines the dish (or any kind of pickle). It just felt very un-Korean! Given how much this experience differed from most reviews, it may be that the chef was out of sorts - or out of ingredients. The idea is great, and the informal atmosphere was nice, but on this occasion the food was a bit of a let-down.

Bland food, dry lamp chop, kimchi soggy and tasteless, average and bland king prawn (and how is that local produce?), chocolate mousse had strange gloopy texture. We were so looking forward to this as the reviews were amazing. I loved the idea of a fixed menu. Also, the place was filthy - I didn’t stay to use the bath room. Early shift we were kicked out within an hour and 30mins. Were the reviews fake? Was she sick that day? Did some else cook and it’s not the same cook? It’s a mystery but I don’t recommend going there. So depressing when you don’t get many nights out at the moment.

Had a great time here for my bday on Saturday. I had pescatarian and my mrs had veggie. The standard of food was great and for the price, hard to complain about! My only feedback would be that the volume of food I got was a lot more than my mrs, which was fine in this case but would have been disastrous if it was the other way around… as it so happens we both left very satisfied and happy and left a good tip as well as thanks to the very friendly lady serving us. Can’t wait to bring others.

Beautiful food, we had starter and main that was on sharing plates, the food was so good, so tasty, Pickled sea veg, sticky rice and Sea bass when we went.. there was more than that but I couldn't name it all.. There is no menu choice as they serve what they have, they will ask about special dietary requirements when you book, so make sure you advise as this will decide on the menu for that evening I expect.. it's nice and small, bring your own bottle too. I can't wait to go again.

An excellent little hidden gem! Would recommend highly. A taste sensation, with a vibrant Michelin quality set menu all for a fraction of the price. Can't wait to go again!

Can't recommend this little place enough. Super friendly staff, very professional and chatty chef lady, the whole vibe has got a family feel and quite intimate. The dishes are well thought and composed, the drinks are byo. The prices are very fair for a gastro journey like this. We will be back, have a great holiday and we're looking forward to your cookbook!

If you're familiar with Korean dining, you will know that the most underwhelming locations and decor often hide the very best places to eat. This if definitely the case, can't wait to go back again!

Excellent food by an incredible chef with a mission of brining top-quality dining experience to the masses. Everything was phenomenal, a creative fusion with the highest respect to the freshest ingredients. Brilliant host. Will be a crime to miss this place if you're in Bristol.

Brilliant meal in a small venue. Going to this restaurant feels like more of an experience as you don't know what food you will be getting, which we loved. All the dishes were delicious, fresh and original. The service was excellent. All this at incredibly good value. Would highly recommend!

The most incredible meal I’ve had in Bristol. Wizzy makes you feel as though you’re eating at her kitchen table. Every dish was executed with precision, care and soul. A must if you are in Bristol.

A thoroughly enjoyable experience - excellent food, excellent service, excellent chef. Would recommend

Excellent food and a great host. Intimate and unique dining experience. Each dish is lovingly put together and full of flavour. Very reasonable price! It's cash only and BYOB

Mindful eating. Great fun. Chef's table so you get what you are given although when booking you can state dislikes / allergies. The mastermind is busy all night in the kitchen but we met her walking in during the day and learned some of her ethos re ballanced diet. The waiter (who was filling in for a friend) explained all the dishes and kept everyone amused.

A warm a friendly welcome that continues throughout the meal. We'd been looking forward to the experience ever since finding out about this restaurant. It does not disappoint. Salmon gravadlax, sea bass with kimchee plus loads of extra ending with chocolate mousse. Loved it.

This is one of my favourite places in Bristol. It's hard to describe it: One has to try it. The food is absolutely amazing (and crazily cheap). The chef is a true master of fermentation; never tried anything like that before. Don't expect a typical restaurant with menus and stuff. The food changes every day and, unless you have dietary requirements, it's up to the chef what you are going to eat. Noise and wasted food are banned. Just sit down, shut up, enjoy divine food (the way she cooks fish is incredible), don't leave leftovers, and go home happy.

Tried going there today at about 7/730pm, but it was closed. Didn't have any mention of this on their map/website.

Such a special experience ❤️❤️❤️

Excellent range of dishes, all full of flavour and delicious! Super homely atmosphere and excellent service. Highly recommend, we will be back.

Great tasty food, cozy environment and very accommodating chef.

We went with friends who visit this restaurant regularly. It is unprepossessing from outside but do not be put off. It has a feeling of sitting in your slightly scatty aunties home but it is a warm and friendly fun experience. You can take your...

Authentic, delicious and a great atmosphere. They catered for my vegetarian diet graciously

Bearpit area is not somewhere you venture for fresh and nutritious food. This place is quite an eye opener, nothing fried or greasy. Quirky but a very memorable dining experience.

You can always trust in Chef Wizzy. Romantic and sociable with incredible food. Every dish is unique!

Very interesting and unusual setting. The table was far too crowded and we found the demeanour of the “make sure you eat everything on your plate, we’ve worked very hard to make the food” a little off putting and condescending. Also found the lack of transparency around various costs to be a bit off putting. That said, most of the food was nice

Beautiful food in a stylishly cosy environment. Wonderfully fresh and healthy dinner for an exceptional price. Fantastic for first dates or returning occasions!

Amazing food, lovely atmosphere and really well priced. Highly recommended

This is one of my favourite places in Bristol. It's hard to describe it: One has to try it. The food is absolutely amazing (and crazily cheap). The chef is a true master of fermentation; never tried anything like that before. Don't expect a typical...

It is a must visit when in Bristol. A very unique experience. One host and one chef making a beautiful atmosphere. It is like one big chef table the chef makes the food and the host brings it amd explains everything. Fresh and local ingredients. Homemade pickled vegetables and other beautiful food. It is a very special place which I will remember and recommend to everyone. It is cash only, and it is brign your own drink wich the host takes a little provision.We will definitely come back there again for new experience.

Wonderful place - unique and delicious and sociable and BYOB. The chef prepares what she thinks is fresh and tasty that day, with sides of rice and vegetables that she has lovingly pickled over the last year. It's byob and everyone sits at one long table so it's friendly and, if you want it to be, sociable. Some diners kept to themselves, other groups talked with each other. The waitress was great and explained each of the dishes as they arrived. Truly deserving of five stars

Amazing food, love that you get what's on, takes away the worry of choosing badly

This place is a joke. We were all squeezed together like sardines cause everyone eats on one big table and we were also told to stop talking because the noise was making the chef panic and burn herself (all the guests eating there were told this) . Hahahahaha. Avoid at all costs and use the money to eat somewhere nicer where you can talk and have fun and sit comfortably. The food was average as well I was not blown away to be honest.

Great price and quality. Need to be prepared to be close to other diners but everyone is polite and respectful of the set up. Be great to see what happens next.

The food is absolutely incredible. Warning there is no menu so you have to be willing to experiment and test your pallets. Neither myself of my girlfriend are vegan or vegetarian, however, there was a lady next to us who was vegan. Despite what these...

This is my favourite restaurant in Bristol. Triple good because as well as excellent food it is cheap and BYO.

Can't say enough good things about Sky Kong Kong. Have been here a number of times and am always impressed both by the quality of cooking and the unbelievable price of the meal. Service is always great too.

Having been recommended this place I’d read the reviews and was a little bit sceptical. We arrived (late) and were welcomed warmly and suddenly it became apparent that you all need to arrive on time because they only have two sittings. Nevertheless they sat us...

This is my second visit to this fantastic restaraunt. Once again we were served a delightful variety of delicious food. The service and atmosphere were relaxed and friendly. Would highly recommend to anyone!

A good meal but I think it was a little bit more money that I expected. We looked at a menu online befor going and the prices were cheaper, maybe we were looking at a takeaway menu? Fairly dim inside, but that made it a bit more cosy. The staff were very nice. The portions were large enough for me to take some home and have it for lunch the next day. "It was pretty good, no?" - my friend "Yeah it's pretty good" - my other friend

The food was nice, but we were a group of 9, of which 2 were vegan and 1 veggie. It was noticeable to everyone that the vegans and veggie got less food - i.e we got the same as the omnis, but we didn't get...

Booked here with with my husband and son. On booking we were ask of any dietary requirements which we informed them of and there was no issues. On arriving at the venue we were seated and noted the place was very cold and the door...

Great unique and personal dining experience. Love that there's only limited options. Friendly and engaging waitress. Explained each dish.

Such an amazing little restaurant. The food here is incredible and the staff are so sweet and attentive. The fact the food the menu is a surprise really adds to the experience. When the food came out, we were talked through each dish going through the ingredients which was really interesting! You can tell it's all freshly prepared and with a lot of love put into each dish. Would really recommend and go back again - thanks so much!

Off the beaten track but well worth the walk. Do not be put off by the exterior or location, this little gem provides a dining experience not just a culinary delight. Run by two ladies; one cooks out back, the other delivers food and menu...

This restaurant is £12 (£12.50?) For a starter and a main which includes multiple dishes which are really tasty and gives a genuine taste of real Korean food. The salmon I've had here is the only time I've ever liked salmon and the chicken slices...

Fantastic food, great service and a wonderful little place

Great menu for a great price. Not your typical restaurant. A balanced menu, minimises food waste, and a delicious chocolate mousse for dessert.

Close to the Bear Pit, this tiny restaurant shines a big light on fantastic food at incredible value. We ate things we'd never experienced before and the flavours were incredible. Not for people that like their own space, the long table might stifle intimate conversation...

I can't think of anywhere else I have been where I shared the enthusiasm for the food quite so much. I dined with a friend and fellow food lover and we found ourselves almost giggling with joy at dish after dish of unique, healthy and...

After booking a Valentines day dinner here, we were pleasantly surprised. The food was plentiful and beautifully plated especially the starter which was filled with interesting fruit. Some of sides for the main were a little bit too spicy for me but my partner enjoyed...

Approach Sky Kong Kong as if you were going to dine at a friends house - you won’t get to dictate what or how you have, you may be socialising with some other guests who you have not met before and you’ll take any wine...

Goodness me, this place is great! Delicious, wonderful atmosphere and staff. BYO. Really different and so well worth a visit. I promise you'll be really pleased you tried it!

This is not 'just a meal' it is an event, an adventure and an experience. All the food we were given was so different from any we had had before, and was all perfect, the waitress is a delight not only serving us but giving a detailed description of what we were being offered. My only regret is it is in Bristol and we live in Leicester otherwise we;d be there every night, do yourselves a favour and give it a go, I am sure you will not regret it.

A wonderful experience. The menu was very imaginative and the surroundings totally unique.

Lovely place for family member. Interesting Korea fusion foods.Nice mood.

Interesting way to dine and one that I have never experience before. No menu, you just get what you're given and that can be made up of food across a broad range of cuisines (which I imagine has the potential to upset some people with dietary prejudices or requirements, although they will accommodate you where they can). Diners sit around one long communal table which is cosy. The food was absolutely on point.

I believe my main concern with this "pocket rocket" Korean eatery is not with the food, but the format. If you are unlucky enough to dislike, (or be unable to eat), something on the fixed menu, then you could end up feeling a little cheated.

Went to Sky Hong Kong with friends for my birthday. The food was amazing - unusual enough to be interesting and familiar enough to be simply delicious. The service was lovely and friendly. Loved the huge jars of pickles on the shelves. Incredible value too. We enjoyed sharing a long table and liked the mismatched crockery. Really fun, unusual dining experience! reallly recommend. Also nice to know that because it’s set menu only, they buy exactly what they need for the evening, so no waste!

Not easy to find, but well worth the effort. A small eatery, with one long communal table that would survive an earthquake. Fascinating shelves full of preserves and stores. Booking probably essential in the evening. Taste and texture wise this was quite an adventure. Good quality ingredients cooked and served to a high standard. If a white tablecloth and tasteful decor are important to you, go elsewhere. Very good value. I have eaten out many times, but never in a venue like this. Recommended.

Having been to Sky Kong Kong a few years ago, soon after it opened, and categorising it as a ‘curio’, we figured it was worth a return visit to see how it had bedded down. Afterall, to still be going strong in Bristol’s competitive dining market says it must be doing something right.

This restaurant has food sourcing and flavour at its heart. Trust the chef, embrace the passion and knowledge of the staff and you are in for a real treat!

I'm so glad a friend recommended this place. I'm from London but visited while I was in Bristol and was blown away. The food was absolutely incredible. You pay £12.50 and get a starter, main and sides (dessert is an extra £2.50) from the changing daily menu. Every course we had was full of flavour and unique. It's also BYOB (£1.50 corkage per person). It feels very different too - you all sit along one long wooden table and chat to the people next to you. We went for the 7pm sitting and there were spare seats so you didn't feel crowded. I'm pescatarian but don't eat shellfish - mentioned this when booking and still had plenty of food. I think it would be more of a challenge for vegetarians as we had fish in both the starter and main courses. What a gem.

Yep, absolutely delicious. I'm a militant veggie and my dining companion a pescatarian - out of the 6 dishes served, only 1 was unsuitable for me. Everything served was beautifully prepared and seasoned, full of that wonderful slightly picked, slightly fermented Korean flavour, and presented with care and reverence.

Teniendo en cuenta que la mayoría de los pubs promedio cobran 15 o más por pescado y papas fritas mediocres o una hamburguesa, creo que este es uno de los mejores restaurantes de Bristol. De otras críticas parece que los grupos de 4 a veces dejan hambre, pero siempre he venido en un grupo de 5 o más y me han dejado lleno. Me encanta todo: pepinillos, kimchi, arroz morado, pescado frito, ensalada de frutas y mousse de chocolate travieso. Cada persona que he tomado lo ha amado. Vale la pena señalar: si no te gusta lo picante, no podrás apreciar el kimchi y la pasta de chile (¡y muchas otras comidas agradables!).
