    My husband and I dined at M Test Kitchen at the end of September this year and it was super experience from start to finish. Last night was no exception. The food and service was amazing. The chefs take such pride in each plate of food being served. Each dish we ordered had layers of flavor and the portion sizes were perfect. The prices are so reasonable for such high quality dishes. We highly recommend M Test Kitchen and look forward to dining here again.

    Our group of three tried dishes from every category and each one was a hit! They had a great selection of vegetarian options, too, which is always a plus. We will be back!

    The crab fried rice was very boring and no taste of crab, just salt and overcooked bacon. The pork belly appetizer was just so so. In effect a meatball made of pork rolled in a white rice. The smoke tofu salad was very good and the Japanese squash gnocchi was the best dish by far. I wouldn’t go back.

    Once again Chef Connor provided one delicious course after another. My guests were new to the restaurant as well as being able to interact with the chef. Everyone had such a great time! I would highly recommend coming here for a special occasion or just an exquisite meal!

    M Test is one of the best restaurants in the Triangle area. If you haven’t been then it is a must to put on your places to eat. The menu selection has 4 great course choices and the small plates give everyone a try at the different variety of them.
