Humble Chicken

Humble Chicken occupies a narrow Georgian frontage at 54 Frith Street, in the heart of Soho, behind a dark shopfront marked only by a rooster emblem. Chef Angelo Sato runs a single counter of thirteen seats wrapped around an open kitchen, where a binchotan grill and Japanese technique drive a sixteen-course omakase that changes with the season. The room is warm timber and blue-glazed tile, lit low, with the pass in full view; every guest watches their meal built an arm's length away.

Sato opened the restaurant in 2021 and rebuilt it into its current form, winning a first MICHELIN star in 2024 and a second in 2025. It is one of the most sought-after seats in London, and its scale is the point: thirteen covers, one sitting, no division between kitchen and table.

For a private group, the counter is available as an exclusive buyout, giving a party the full thirteen seats, the chef's attention and the open kitchen to themselves. It suits an intimate celebration or a small, high-touch corporate dinner where the cooking is the entertainment.
