The Chef’s Table, is located at 1a Avon Cres, Bristol, BS1 6XQ, UK The Chef's Table – Bristol disraeli23 15/08/24 High quality dining experience We had the menu exceptional and it certainly was. Picking a highlight is tricky but the sheer breadth of flavours in the foie gras starter, the scallop dish and the monkfish in coconut bisque risotto took the breath away. The wine flight is absolutely worth adding, wines are carefully paired and thoroughly explained – it is almost like getting a wine tasting class thrown in. Of course it isn’t cheap but thoroughly recommended for a special occasion.read moreread less Caroline L 12/08/24 EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCE Why, oh, why has this restaurant not got a Michelin 🌟 really beyond me. The food and presentation are exceptional, as well as the service. We took some friends,( of whom are very well travelled and eat at Michelin Star restaurants only),there on the 8th of August . We all had the “Exceptional Menu” ,& it was too die for. Beautiful flavours that kept popping in your mouth, extraordinary textures & and flavours left you wanting more. This restaurant is the BEST in Bristol in all of our views đź‘Ś The whole team must be congratulated on their hard work & professionalism it really shines through. We can wait until the next time đź‘Śđź‘Źđź‘Źđź‘Źread moreread less Nicky B 12/08/24 Wonderful for a special event We had a tasting menu. The food was spectacular. The service was excellent.

The sommelier (sorry we didn’t catch his name) took us on an amazing wine journey and the staff were all wonderful. However, we must call our Sophia who was delightful. Can’t recommend it highly enough.read moreread less BarbO101 04/08/24 Spectacular meal with outstanding personal service We visited the restaurant to celebrate my mothers 80th birthday. This restaurant deserves every positive review you read here. The food was remarkable – beautifully presented, interesting ingredients, faultless techniques and, most importantly, totally delicious. Miles was a fabulous host – there had been a muddle in our arrival time that he handled with enormous grace, he explained the wine flight with the right balance of expertise and common touch and made a couple of adjustments to ensure that the whole table had a wonderful evening. Chef Conrad came out to see us at the end of our meal and it was lovely to be able to compliment him in person on a memorable meal we will talk about for any years to come.read moreread less penny6666 28/07/24 Really lovely treat. Fabulous meal – food is of a very high standard. It’s a small restaurant- we had a good table by the window, be careful there is a table in the door way as you come in. We had the 7/8 course meal – each course really was delicious- with a array of gorgeous tastes, textures and flavours. Liked being able to see kitchen via a window and screen. Staff were pleasant and knowledgeable- food was described as point down but a little quick. Most tables are turned round for a layer sitting- but we did not feel rushed. It’s pricey- but worth it for a treat. Well done to all.read moreread less Jim M 27/07/24 Don’t miss this restaurant Brilliant service food wine ambience. One of the best meals ever.

Staff very pleasant and incredibly knowledgeable, especially the guy serving the wine. Will definitely be back!read moreread less Angela D 25/07/24 Fine dining at its best My husband and I went here for lunch as part of a belated Christmas gift and we were not disappointed. We both had the five course light lunch menu. Each course was beautifully presented and every mouthful was exquisite. The raviolo in particular was absolutely delicious. Chloe, the assistant manager, was a delight and was so friendly and helpful. At the end of the meal the chef came and had a chat with us which was a really nice touch. We have eaten in quite a few Michelin starred restaurant and I don’t think it will be long before Chef’s Table get their first star. Thank you for a wonderful experience.read moreread less Explorer62097411433 20/07/24 Superb. Highly recommended! Brilliant. Friendly welcome, great service and superb and highly skilled cooking.

We were all down in Bristol for a few days and always try to find a quality restaurant to eat out in. We originally was going to eat off the menu but upon arrival we went for the taster menu. The staff were very accommodating and service was great. Without a doubt the best Venison dish ever and the Scallops were fantastic. A great table right by the kitchen window. The head chef came out at the end to chat with us about the food etc.read moreread less Pandorita_123 13/06/24 Excellent food and service After reading so many good comments, my hubby and I had to try this place.

Conrad in the kitchen, with Miles out front and Chloe. We were a party of 12 celebrating a birthday and the whole experience was seamless. Passionate about great food with an informal style front of house which is easy and exudes confidence in what they are delivering. One of the few places I still enjoy eating in Bristol. The entire evening was excellent. My only ask is to purchase larger water glasses for those who consume a lot of it. Otherwise full marks! Thank you again.read moreread less NPConstanta 21/05/24 It's a very nice small restaurant, in a good place. We like the ambiance very much, the services were ok, ( sometimes the customers are not all of them from England, so therefore a slightly understanding from the waiters are very welcome, and the discussion a little rare is much appreciated). We enjoyed all the food, the carots and asparagus were amazing, very delicious almost everything we order, a small disappointment it was the beef because in our opinion it was not as delicious as we expected to be.read moreread less 712adrianm 15/05/24 The food and service in this restaurant is second to none.

Service is friendly, cheerful and capable and it was very pleasant to see, in true continental style, a well behaved small child and a very discreetly nursed new baby welcomed and kindly accommodated. On this occasion, five of us came for a birthday lunch for one member of the party and had, by pre-arrangement, the full menu exceptionel, with (expertly chosen and generously poured) wine flights. Lunch tables are generally available for two or so hours: we were there for four hours and did not feel rushed at all. If wanting the 7-course menu exceptionel at lunch time, I would recommend doing as I did and asking for this at time of booking as a matter of courtesy. The restaurant is small (though not cramped) and as the full tasting menu takes time to enjoy, it is sensible to make sure you can be accommodated over that time and the staff can still not be rushed to get evening service started. The food was, as it has been before, exceptional: one member of our party, an experienced chef, commented that he considered it the best restaurant he had ever eaten at across a broad experience of many countries. All the food is good: so good it is hard to select a favourite course. The smoked eel custard with the scallop course, and the apple and coconut combination for one of the puddings, perhaps stood out today. I notice one review on here comments unfavourably on the sauce with the (extremely good) Chateaubriand. Whoever wrote that review had clearly never tasted a correctly made demi-glace: it was of superb quality, perfectly clear, and very well-flavoured, displaying an expertise on its maker's part that would have been expected of classical chefs such as Brillat-Savarin or Escoffier. Portions are just right for a seven course menu: one leaves feeling satisfied, but not overstuffed. Presentation is a delight: many photos were taken! All in all a delightful meal, a delightful way to spend a few hours, and many thanks to chef Raffa and her for her handwork, and to Miles for explaining our wines. Looking forward to seeing the next menus for June and July. As for cost – looks too expensive for you? It's not, not for the value and the experience. I'd sooner eat less frequently here, but eat much better,read moreread less barryw679 27/04/24 This restaurant has a classy French feel about it.

Our ages spanned from 2 to 80 and the restaurant catered for all our party, even the 2 year old, who had food brought with us, was heated in the kitchen! The meal was superb, the service impeccable and the wines delectable. We could not have been better looked after and everyone had an evening that will be remembered for a very long time.

We opted for the seven course tasting as it had good options for my pescatarian partner. Every dish was lovely and showed remarkable flavours and attention to detail. The wine flight was also interesting and very well considered and presented. I don’t agree with one of the comments about the size of the glasses, we felt they were on the generous side and left us enough to sip between courses. It can be a clichĂ© to say “Can’t understand why you don’t have a Michelin star” but in this case it really does apply. Maybe it’s the lack of frippery (amuse-bouche, petit-fours) but they really aren’t needed here. The pricing can make it more of a special occasion venue, though there is now a lighter – and less expensive – lunch menu. Highly recommended.read moreread less tony777_11 26/02/24 Fine dining experience We went for lunch on Valentine’s Day and had a 6-course tasting menu with a glass of champagne each to start with. Really nice food, beautifully presented. The turbot main course was particularly memorable. It’s a very small restaurant with tables shoe-horned in for the maximum number of covers. It’s always packed so booking is essential. A ÂŁ50 deposit was taken at the time of booking and then subtracted from the final bill. There’s good parking right opposite which is unusual considering how anti-car Bristol is! Total bill was ÂŁ203.06 including drinks and a 12.5% service charge. Definitely recommended for fine dining.read moreread less load more | |
