London, United Kingdom
From Michelin Guide
A beautiful horseshoe-shaped counter allows guests to see ‘behind’ the scenes at this neighbourhood restaurant with an ersatz-industrial look. Every seat has a view of the talented chefs, who also serve dishes themselves and describe their make-up with palpable pride. The surprise seasonal menu has a seafood focus, but meat dishes, like guinea fowl with pumpkin, are prepared with equal aplomb. The 10 or so courses are all delicate, balanced and skilful little creations that provide great depth of flavour and make for a memorable dining experience.

Fastest Michelin Star Award: Behind earned its Michelin star just 20 days after opening in 2020, possibly setting a record for the quickest time to gain a star, especially notable given the challenging pandemic context.
Unique Dining Setup: The restaurant features an 18-seat horseshoe-shaped counter where diners sit on high blue-velvet stools, fully exposed to the kitchen action. This design removes the barrier between chefs and guests, creating an immersive chef’s table experience where diners can watch every detail of the food preparation and even receive plates directly from the chefs.
Fish-Focused, Locally Inspired Menu: Behind specializes exclusively in seafood, with a constantly changing 10-course tasting menu inspired by the day’s catch from Cornwall. This focus on fish is rare in London’s Michelin scene and reflects the chef Andy Beynon’s desire to support local UK fisheries and explore creative culinary possibilities with fish and shellfish.
