About Behind Restaurant

Behind Restaurant in London Fields offers Michelin-starred seafood in a format that feels more dinner party than formal fine dining. Chef Andy Beynon runs a one-seating tasting menu (typically ten courses, £118 when last checked) around a semi-circular counter where eight to ten diners watch the kitchen work. Each dish comes directly from the chefs — no waiters, no printed menu, with explanations of what's on the plate. The prawn broth and "prawn toast" get repeated mentions, alongside dishes like pumpkin crab ravioli and clever herb sorbets between courses. Highchairs and buggy access mean families can book lunch sittings. "The chefs were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making it feel almost like dining at home with friends," one parent noted. Reviewers report wine pairings are generous, and the softly lit space stays relaxed rather than hushed, ideal for a milestone birthday or anniversary where kids are part of the celebration.
