The Counter by Robin Read restaurant reviews




Average rating: 4.9
This was our third visit to The Counter for the nine-course tasting menu, and once again it was exceptional. Chef Robin is outstanding. His focus on locally sourced produce, meat, and fish really shines through in every dish. When sitting at the counter, he also takes the time to personally explain each course. The staff are consistently welcoming, attentive, and genuinely passionate about delivering an unforgettable experience. The food is fresh, creative, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommended! We will be back again very soon!
