I would really give it 4.5 stars. We were pleasantly surprised with how good it was. And the live singer they had – well I was skeptical. That is hard to pull off. But I have to say that I was a real fan at the end. He did an amazing job. He is worth seeing. There is a Vegas lounge feeling since all of the tables are right by the bar, so there isn’t a separate dining room. And we were hoping for Italian, and there was only 1 special pasta dish with olives, so if you want Italian, go to the standard Sorrentos downstairs. This menu is more steak, seafood, and sushi. We asked if we could order pasta from the other restaurant (in the same bldg) and we were told no, which was fine. The food we got was all very good. The foccaccia bread was great too. They have a special dessert guy doing flamed desserts, which is cool. Then they did say we could have desserts from the downstairs menu! Oh well.

My husband and I enjoyed our anniversary dinner at The Chef’s Table. Making a reservation was super easy. Everything we had was magnificent ~ a bottle of Banner Elk Winery’s Red Blend, the blackened mahi-mahi and the rainbow trout (both served with mashed potatoes and asparagus), the tiramisu martinis and the dessert crepes made at your table. The staff were all wonderful too. I highly recommend for a nice evening out!

Not going to take the time to go into too much detail but in general, not what it should be and not quite what we were expecting. Tiny salt and pepper shakers on the table was the 2nd clue. 1st clue was bringing not quite completely cooked bread and calling it a gift from the chef. It was accompanied by a bottle of oil and a bottle of vinegar… mix it yourself if you like, but there wasn’t a dish to mix it in. Cook temps were perfect but overall flavor was lacking on both of our entrees. Credit card fee added on. Not terrible but we won’t return and can’t recommend.

The spaghetti i ordered came out wrong twice! Then they charged me for it. I complained to the manager she got a attitude! My friends finished way before me I won’t be back. It’s a shame we really enjoyed Chef’s table.

My friends and I come here often, we love the atmosphere and the music! The staff is friendly and accommodating! Taylor was our waiter and he was AWESOME! Funny, attentive and fun. We dined here this past weekend and I was slightly disappointed. The menu changes often, which is not a bad thing, but this time around we didn’t love it. No one ordered apps because we did not like any of them. We ended up sharing some sushi rolls which were delish! Our main course was good as well. Dessert was entertaining to watch but not the best- dulce de leche crepes, really were not made with dulce de leche. Again, slightly disappointed on the menu but we enjoyed each others company. Some of our friends mentioned the lack of bourbon choices they had and that it was pricey for mediocre bourbon.

We made reservations for Chef’s Table over July 4th weekend. HUGE Mistake! You’d think with the name like “Chef’s Table”, it would be absolutely spot on, very elegant and attention to every detail..wrong! My husband and I were in town only one night, and were terribly disappointed. If you’re looking for a cheesy, open water go anywhere cruise ship type vibe, then you will fit right in. 1) We were seated OUTSIDE of the restaurant along a narrow walkway overlooking staircase entrance and the A/C was broken 2). They had cheesy live music, Frank Sinatra style gentleman singing the entire time.I have nothing against Frankie but don’t want to hear someone performing his songs while I’m trying to talk to my husband and enjoy a romantic dinner 3) By the time the food arrived I lost my appetite. We didn’t leave because we knew we wouldn’t be able to get into any other restaurant by the time we were there. I will never go to this restaurant ever again. Many other options. Guest should know the quality before going.

Loved our evening at Chefs Table. I had one of the daily specials. Drinks were delicious. Place was pack. Definitely need a reservation especially on weekends. Safe was attentive. They had live music while we were dining. Made our dining even better.
