We went to Chef's Kitchen because of all the rave reviews on trip advisor. I would say I liked it but I didn't think it was so special as I had expected from the reviews. As a cooking class, it was essentially a demonstration - not hands on. The chef explained key features of what he was doing and supplied... More

I wasn't sure what type of cooking class could also be an enjoyable, relaxing evening out to dinner. This experience certainly surpassed all expectations, and easily holds as one of the most fun dining experiences I think I've ever had! The setup was conducive to being able to converse with your group and be able to watch the chef work... More

This is not just dinner. You learn how to make what you are being served for the evening in addition to history of the area and basic cooking techniques. Me and my wife have been multiple times. The food is always great and we always learn new things every time we go.

Four of us had front row seats for this spectacular show. For that is what it is. Chefs John and Nick carry on an interactive, fun, fact-filled dialogue with patrons throughout a wonderful dinner. This is worth a special trip to Williamsburg !

Chef John and chef Nick were entertaining and very informative. There were 26 of us for dinner. Everything was prepared as we watched. Obviously a lot of prep work ahead of time. But still plating and finishing dinner before that many was impressive. Good wine pairings with each course. Live piano music with appetizers before dinner. 5 courses. A lot... More

Was originally on the wait list, as this place is booked months earlier. Was able to have a cancellation in our favor and WOW what a treat! The whole event is wonderfully orchestrated from start to end. John and Nick prepared more that just great dishes but added good cooking tips and comforting stories that wished you lived nearby.

We had always heard great things about this restaurant and were not disappointed! The food was delicious and the experience was unique. We were three couples from NC and we planned our trip to Williamsburg around our dinner plans. We look forward to returning for another memorable dining experience.

We read all the positive reviews on this establishment and were happy they were all right on. We had a terrific experience here, from Chef John to his staff to the food itself.
