It's comfortably up there in top 5 all time restaurants. The food is wonderful and there's a few surprise dishes which I won't post pictures of to try and keep it that way.. Difficult to pin point a stand out when every dish had something unique, and was really tasty. Special mentions for the oyster with tempura with all kinds of wizardry on top and the version cooked to perfection. It's fine dining food without the pretentiousness. The setting is really special watching all the talented chefs at work. It's a lovely touch with each course they explain all its components. The 2 additional staff are really friendly and welcoming and the playlist was great. Loved it all.

Wonderful hidden gem. Worth the effort to get a booking. The food was perfectly executed and mixed traditional European and Japanese flavours RTO great success. The staff were all lovely. Great non-alcoholic drink options as well.

I cannot fault the food, it was exceptional. Particularly the trout which was sublime. Service was also exceptional. However I'm a wine lover and the pairing was beyond bad at £80 I expect the the best given we getting 125ml per course. The intrusion of a cider was nonsensical, it was bubbles all the way down and mostly white with the only red tasting flat, I'm not even going to mention the dessert wine. If you go, order a bottle of wine and be done with it, cos the food is fantastic 😍

If I had to describe this restaurant in one word, it would be: alluring. Because Evelyn’s Table was every sense of that word — and more. From the moment we stepped into the little place, tucked away in the heart of London, we were greeted by a quiet and cosy atmosphere. As we sat at the bar table, the sommelier advised us through their wine options and the chefs brought explained each piece of the menu they placed before us. Would highly recommend this place!

On paper this place ticks all my favourite boxes. Was it my favourite place, no, was it good, yes but it could have been soo much more. It's a nice experience, the setting it great, intimate, you feel special but... It was the first tasting menu that I was hungry afterwards, the chef interactions were pretty poor, it was expensive and didn't feel it valued the bill at the end. We did have a nice time, our waitress was fantastic, and it was a good group of people at the table. 4 stars 🌟

😳 wowzas! I’ve been to some incredible restaurants, but this was something else. The intimate basement setting was the perfect stage to this culinary experience. Watching the chefs at work, both mastering the kitchen and hosting the guests in a personal, fun manner brings the whole evening to life. The delicately curated dishes were a sensation on the eyes as well as the taste buds. My favourite part however, has to be the wine pairing and the deeply thoughtful and eloquent introduction to the vineyard, production technique and grape, the sake was like nothing I’d have before, the sommelier was so passionate and warm. A really unique and special place. ❤️

Wonderful experience. We stayed in this intimate restaurant and it was all wonderful. mennu made up of 5 courses and recommend pairing with wine. Everything was perfect from eating to drinking to serving. Very nice to eat and see the chefs cooking for you and the very knowledgeable sommelier put us at ease. Really Recommend!

Great dining experience - definitely up in the top three in London. Much better than some of the michelin star spots in London. Amazing service and attention by the three cousins. All yays, only nay - no matter where you get the coffee from no espresso shot in London is worth £7, especially when you don’t disclose on the menu. Espresso aside will keep coming back for more…

Beautiful, intimate setting and seeing the Selby brothers in action at the kitchen counter seats! The menu during my visit seemed to be Japanese influenced, which was right up my alley. Every set was commendable and the flavours all combined well together! Will definitely be back.

If I could give Evelyn's Table more than five stars, I would. Not knowing what to expect when walking down to the restaurant, which is in the basement of a Soho pub, this was an unbelievable dining experience. Intimate but not intimidating, beautifully presented food full of flavour, and a great 90s hip hop playlist. The vegetarian options were creative and delicious. The chefs were personable and explained each dish as it was presented to us. We were delighted with the variety of the dishes and it was an experience to watch them being prepared in front of our eyes. Can't wait to go back.

What a fabulous evening and amazing gourmet experience! The food was delicious, the wines excellent and paired perfectly, and the service flawless. The setting is unique and intimate, contributing to the overall experience with the food being prepared in front of you. Truly one of the biggest highlights of our London dining adventures.

This is a difficult to get type of restaurant. The space is an intimate basement 12 seater counter with 3 chefs that cook and present their creation in front of you, and 2 sommeliers that guide you through the possible combinations of wine pairing. We were 2 and chose the traditional pairing and the “natural wine” pairing in order to explore the taste and flavour combinations. The food is extremely good, the flavours range from modern to classic to experimental, with mods to seasonality, Asian influences, modern British, techniques are classic like the usage of beurre blanc, salsify, yuzu and other touches that let you grasp the complexity of the cooking which went into each carefully prepared dish. They have 2 seatings, we had the 6 pm one, and there is another at 8 pm if I remember correctly. The tasting of Cornish fish to start with was sublime, followed by an Outstanding British iberico presa dish, the Orkney scallop and the venison with mushroom and smoked juniper, some stout bread with a crème fraiche and beets ( delicious) plus the Jerusalem artichoke dessert followed by a chocolate log with a ganache of hazelnut inside. The service is great, attentive, and full of enthusiasm, the 2 sommelier are both passionate, competent and fun to interact with, the chefs are friendly and very polite, the food is incredible. The only suggestion I have is to have a dedicated pastry chef, as the desserts are the last part of the meal, and I thought that, albeit being good, they were not as delicious as the mains. Anyway, the dinner was magical and I am looking forward to see this place gaining a 2nd Michelin star !

Adorable intimate dining, only a dozen or so seats and all at a counter overlooking the chef's working, great experience, food was exceptional, staff were super friendly and informative. Highly recommend the half-half on the drinks pairing that way you can venture into more adventurous drinks!

Could really not have loved this anymore. An intimate experience, delicious food, excellent service, passionate chefs and sommeliers… I’ve definitely paid more for less fabulous tasting menus. Will definitely be back next season! Thanks to everyone in the team for such a lovely evening

I've visited Evelyn's Table twice before when it was run by the Selby brothers. This year, James Goodyear took over as head chef. The format remains the same, with a tasting menu featuring five main courses and two accompanying snacks. The dishes retain some Japanese elements in their seasoning. While the flavors weren't as impressive as my previous visits, they were still quite good overall. However, my experience was marred when I found a wriggling insect in my bowl while eating the Day Boat Fish dish. Likely it came from the decorative plants. When I informed the chef, he brought over James, who after examining the bug, removed it with tweezers and crushed it, assuring me it was just the skin of a bean and not to worry. I can understand the occasional insect in organic vegetables, and even if they explained that they couldn't replace the dish due to limited servings, I'd understand. However, simply destroying the evidence and offering such an explanation made me feel unpleasant.

Worth every penny ! This Michelin star restaurant is just that for a reason. Very knowledgeable and professional staff all around. The food was absolutely incredible, nothing less. More importantly, their carefully selected wine pairings were equally as impressive. 10/10 recommend. Must eat here if you are in London!

Loved my experience here. Service is top notch! Food was one of the best. The space is a bit tight but it doesn’t really matter.

The cuisine menu was adorned with an array of Japanese-inspired elements: varsity uses of miso, fish roe, seaweed, etc. all intricately woven into the dishes to add nuanced touches rather than dominate, maintaining a European fusion essence. Started with an exquisite two-ways of Cornish fish appetizer, which was, without a doubt, my highlight of the evening. The warm dish was a marvel of texture and taste—tender fish enveloped in konbu leaves, roasted to achieve a perfect balance of moisture retention and flavor infusion. The sauce was a delicate blend of fish roe and seaweed powder that enhanced the umami, making the warm dish an embrace of comfort. The cold dish offered a refreshing contrast, with sashimi brought to life with leeks and a zesty apple sauce. Continued with a first main course of Iberico pork, showcasing three distinct cuts—shoulder, butt, and leg—drizzled with basil leaf oil. The dish was paired with a non-alcoholic drink left a lingering spiciness, courtesy of jalapeño, that was nothing short of mesmerizing. The second main dish scallop sliced and accompanied with four distinct methods of swede preparation. Sourdough and beetroot cream cheese came to transition between courses, striking a rare balance. The final Lake District venison served a decent conclusion to the main courses, although didn't quite captivate as the previous dishes had. The predessert rejuvenated the tasting experience—lemon jelly and panne cotta-alike milk custard accompanied by a trio of honey and fruits embodies a balance of sweet and sour. The dessert, ambitiously combined the homemade vanilla ice cream and hot truffle caramel sauce, was a bit overwhelming, at least to our tolerance. The intention was bold, but the presence of black truffle felt out of place, casting a shadow over the otherwise harmonious blend of red beans and ice cream. Overall, I enjoy the boldness of experiencing the combination of different flavours, truest adventurous and worth trying🫶

Relaxed, informal and extremely delicious. We loved the way you can chat to every chef as they each take turns to present different courses. Super place I would love to go back in the future. We also had a pre dinner seating at the wine bar upstairs which is a must to get the full experience, the sommelier is top class.

The most incredible experience. Cannot fault the service, food and incredible atmosphere, everything was perfect! We loved the langoustine and venison in particular, but were blown away by every course. The sommelier and chefs were so lovely when explaining our pairings and dishes - Book in advance and absolutely make this a must visit. Thank you!!!

A marvellous meal. To ensure a relaxed seating process (and likely upsell of decent plonk) you’ll most likely be escorted to the wine bar upstairs before you are seated in the basement restaurant space. Do not fill up on the addictive bar snacks (come back when you’re not dining downstairs) I’ve been a fan of the food from this restaurant group for years - the menu's not cheap but the food is consistently good which is a mark of quality. The last time we ventured downstairs the food was Italian, tasty but pricey and as we kept ordering to try more dishes it ended up being quite pricey. This visit we found the front of house team at Evelyn’s Table the right amount of friendly and the chefs good natured in the face of a silly amount of cellphones during service (which I too am guilty of) Like most good tasting menus, you’ll find yourself pleasantly full despite the Lilliputian portions. Whilst the “secret” slash “bonus” dishes (sorry, courses) deliver the perception of value, they’re so fun and tasty you’ll wish there are more “hidden” courses. Recommended for those who genuinely like food and flavours, British seasonal produce with a typically London mix of flavours and cuisine and aren’t looking to be seen and just want a nice dinner. The price point makes it more of an occasion than a weekly dinner, and I’m looking forward to visiting each season for a pay day treat

Unreal experience, food was amazing, chefs attention to details is well noticed. Front of house are brilliant and recommend great wine.

Food journey across a delicious tasting menu - 1st time @ Evelyn‘s Table. Would recommend my best friends (Y/N: YES! Setup: Party of two, at a fully booked 12-Seat counter restaurant. We would have preferred a little bit more space - but it was sufficient. The vibe is „low key“ with dimmed lights and classy decoration. Menu: We opted for one vegetarian and one pescatarian version of the menu. Both convinced, however, the vegetarian lacked some alternatives and instead had elements removed Food: The food tasted fantastic - quality ingredients executed with a innovative twist and great versatility of flavours - to be expected at £120 a head. Service and drinks Did not disappoint, however, drinks felt pricy even for a Michelin star restaurant. Details below: When: Nov 22 Party size: 2 Atmosphere: 8/10 Service: 8.0/10 Food: 8.5/10 Drinks: 7/10 Value for price: 7.5/10 Favourite: Daikon Mini-Burger and Celeriac with blackberries and chocolate dust Disappointed: no disappointments

There aren’t words to describe how wonderful dinner was at Evelyn’s Table. They should have more than one Michelin star. The entire experience was perfection from the second we walked in the door. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, the chefs were very personable while making mind blowingly good food. Every dish was fantastic and the wine pairing was very unique and exploratory. Even the music selection was perfectly executed for the feeling of the space and the meal. It is worth every penny and second invested in having a meal here.

Absolutely phenomenal meal, arguably one of the best I’ve ever eaten?! I went here back in January 2022 and realized I never left a review so here I am going back to make sure I share! I was recommended Evelyn’s Table from a family member and visited there solo while visiting from New York. I was blown away. I left very full, quite buzzed (the sommelier is next level!!!) and just so impressed. The intimate experience, music and especially the service leaves an impression on you. They are warm, attentive and have the evening down to a science. The food is perfect. It made quite the dent on my wallet but is most certainly worth it. I’ll be back next time I’m visiting from the states!

Amazing food, the service was impeccable. I loved the intimate setting and the staff were unmatched. Absolutely amazing evening, would definitely recommend and would love to go back.

We had a great meal at Evelyn’s Table and it was so worth the 5am alarm setting to grab a reservation. They have the whole process down from welcoming you, to offering a cocktail and getting you settled. Each of the five courses (and a few surprises) were unique, beautiful and most importantly delicious! We normally don’t do the wine pairing (tend to select our own) but given the unique nature of the dishes, we left ourselves in their hands. They had great wine and sake selections and explained each one. The meal was perfectly paced and we didn’t feel rushed but also it wasn’t drawn out like some tasting menus can be. Highly recommend having a glass of wine before or after your meal at their upstairs wine bar The Mulwray (they’ll arrange a spot for you). Can’t wait to return.
