Absolutely wonderful tasting menu. Unusual but very successful flavour combinations. Staff were delightful, helpful and very knowledgeable.

Amazing fixed menu with delicate and refined flavours. Loved every single dish on the menu! The small bites, pork belly and bread and butter were delightful!

This restaurant is booked out weeks ahead for a good reason. It is the very very best eating experience in Cambridge. I would unreservedly recommend you try it. Just superb!!!

Beautifully presented and very tasty food with soft drink pairing. One of the team worked out it was for a birthday celebration and surprised us with a little birthday treat which was a lovely touch.

I had a full course dinner menu at the Cambridge Michelin restaurant, which was quite impressive. I did not expect to be stuffed at a Michelin restaurant given my large appetite…We started off the taste journey with a bite size warm cheese tart, topped with shredded Parmesan. Among the three snacks, my favorite was the rabbit course, which was exquisitely prepared with complex flavors. Featuring a thin, crispy coating with the wild taste of rabbit meat preserved just right.The pre-meal bread was a pleasant surprise and one of the reasons my friend revisited. I'm not usually interested in flaky bread, but the bread itself was moist but not greasy, and I was surprised by its warm feel, easily crumbled crust, and perfectly structured air pockets. Among the three kinds of butter, my favorite was the fermented yeast, which had an unexpected taste of miso. Followed by a custard mushroom soup, the custard was different from the Asian style, resembling cream added, with a garnish of black truffle aroma, overall not bad.The three main courses were pork belly, codfish, and beef. The pork belly was fatty but balanced well with an aggressive sauce similar to "scallion oil"; the final steak was thoughtful, with butter used in a layered potato, the beef tongue and steak were slow-fried, and the bone marrow was stewed into a sauce. However, the codfish was a bit disappointing, although the fish was tender from low-temperature slow cooking, the sauce lacked surprise.The transition before the dessert was clever, with a grapefruit sorbet parfait and lemon jelly making a refreshing, grease-cutting ice cream sandwich.However, the actual dessert was somewhat too heavy, with the caramel almost reaching the viscosity of toffee, overpowering the bitterness of the chocolate itself, which, as a chocolate lover, I only managed to finish with difficulty.Overall, it was delicious, but I feel this menu was not well-balanced between dishes, starting from the very first appetizer, giving a strong sensory impact and easily becoming too rich.

The meal was wonderful. The chef and the team was brilliant.Not only the food was delicous, their services was excellent.I liked the starter to the desserts. They used the local sourced ingredients from for the dishes, they made the tasty beet which from Herefordshire. It was terrificly good, it is worth the money.

Had their tasting menu with the wine flight. We had the best experience. Expensive - yes, but we felt like we had good value.
Everything was very nice, from the food (we have regular and no fish tasting menus) to the atmosphere and service. Myself was very full midway through the menu :)Loved the parmesan starters and the amazing soup.

Absolutely delicious and great service. Bread and butter? It wasn't just bread and butter, delightfully fluffy, layered croissant style buns with whipped, quenelles of butters mixed with delightful flavours. The rest of the food was perfection, everything went together like a jigsaw on the plate, every flavour purposeful and edible. I could go on but the bottom line is, you have to go and try this place if you haven't yet. If you don't like food, don't go. If you do, better get a booking now.

Excellent!! Wonderful service and exquisite menu. Often tasting menus have a strong start, but can’t keep up the level for all dishes. Not at Twenty-Two, every dish is delicious, from start to finish. Moreover, the staff is very attentive, and gifting a box with their delicate homemade bread upon departing is a good example of a little touch that can truly elevate the customer experience. Thank you! Looking forward to coming again

I would like to thank the entire team for making the evening very special.I still see & remember the visit as it was yesterday and in reality it's almost to 2 weeks.Your michelin star is well deserved.From the beginning till the end everything was perfect.My special thank you goes to Bethany.Thank you for taking me with you to the journey of sommelier.The wine presentation showed that you know what you are talking about. The short stories behind those wines were amazing.The highlight was that south african wine. As you said it was meant to be. Thank you!

What can I say that's not already been said? Use any superlative you can think of and then some.Tucked away in a rather "blink and you'll miss it" victorian townhouse is this superb restaurant.Lorry driver & cleaner made to feel like millionaire lottery winners.Been lucky enough to have dined at a couple of Michelin star restaurants but always felt the urge to "let's have a burger" afterwards. Not here though, oh, no. Left fully appetite satisfied.Best Sauvingnon blanc we've had and by restaurant prices, a good price. (Had two, and we're from Yorkshire!)It was wife's birthday and also our wedding anniversary and she was skeptical about paying so much for a meal. Changed her mind afterwards. Money we'll spent.
