Open Kitchen - Piatti

this is a college restaurant staffed by trainees and students small menu open kitchen all cooked fresh great open restaurant good service we had mushroom bourguignion with mash , chicken kiev poached egg and skin on chips really good and a couple of carafes of house wine would definitely go back reasonably priced a great find

Had a very nice evening tonight food was tasty particularly the butternut squash and Stilton starter, and the cauliflower and caper side), good value £35 for 3 courses and half a bottle of wine). Also the staff were really lovely and seemed genuinely thrilled we enjoyed ourselves a lovely evening! Also, excellent portion sizes....

Keep away from this restaurant. Awful service with a manager totally incapable of providing customer service. Had booked a week in advance and messed up reservation. Atmosphere was really dull pretty empty when visited while it was peak time for dinner. The place is run by students more of a student accommodation food hall environment. Visualizza piatti

Where to start Attentive staff, great food and a lovely experience Starters of Arancini and prawns and burrata were simple and full of flavour. Mains were gnocchi and striploin. Both beautifully presented and tasty. All accompanied with a delicious Italian red, Brunito Rossi Toscana. This is part of Hackney College, bringing through trainee restaurant staff. Come on down for a great food experience

Visited with a friend for lunch. A very large area and unfortunately we were the only people in the restaurant. However the welcome was very warm. The lunch menu was bit limite but am sure it might be more of an evening venue. The food I had was very nice with a good bottle of Wine I think maybe the Students could do with a little more hands on tuition as our server seem to struggle a bit. However well worth another visit.

I came to OKN1 with my family last night. The service was amazing, everyone was so polite. The food was very delicious. I got to try a new cocktail called the Grasshopper which was fantastic, I was even able to go to the bar and see how it was made. Regarding the food it is an open kitchen which was lovely to see all the talented chefs prepare such delicious meals. I really recommend coming here as it’s very good and to support the new generation of chefs. Visualizza piatti

I visited London for an event and traveled from Sunderland for it. I discovered an incredible restaurant run by students. I was impressed by the high quality of the food and drinks. The students who served us were extremely confident and polite. A big congratulations to everyone, but a special shout out to Lexi and Tom, who were level 1 students volunteering for a shift. They were so professional. The future of the catering and hospitality industry is in good hands with these students.

The staff are lovely and we had a lovely lunch experience but the food was a little hit and miss. The starters a grilled broccoli dish with new potatoes and a piquant sauce were delicious. The mains weren’t so good. The coq au vin was served with mash and ciabatta which made it quite heavy, and was more like a chicken casserole, and both this and the cod risotto were quite over seasoned and salty. The cod was good though and all meals are beautifully presented. All in all, a lovely experience but the food was a bit hit and miss.

I’ve walked passed this restaurant many times on the way to work and wondered what it was like. Decided to visit in an evening as was staying close to it. So glad I did. The welcome was wonderful. There were groups eating and clearly enjoying their evening. The menu had a good choice and when the food came it was superbly cooked, hot and very nicely presented. The team are eager to please and know about service. The open kitchen allows you to see the trainee chefs and experienced ones at work. The team spirit was excellent. Full marks and this definitely goes towards the top of my restaurant list. Will most certainly return. Visualizza piatti
