Harden's survey result
Summary
Still on top form after 27 years, scrum-half-turned-chef JP (Jean-Philippe) Gravier and his FOH English wife Kim won particularly strong feedback this year for the “fresh and creative dishes in a charming environment” at their classic Gallic bistro across the river from Hampton Court Palace. It’s “family-run from top to bottom”, with daughter Victoria working in the kitchen these days – so “what’s not to love”?
Summary
“Patron JP (Jean-Philippe Gravier), a former French scrum-half, and his front-of-house English wife Kim run this high-standard, atmospheric restaurant in trendy Hampton Court Village” (latterly with daughter Victoria aiding JP in the kitchen). Its Gallic bistro cuisine includes a textbook steak tartare and frites.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
