XO Kitchen

You'll find XO tucked into the heart of Norwich's most interesting eating street, where the kitchen takes actual risks with flavour. This is the kind of place where the menu changes because they're genuinely cooking rather than following a formula—expect properly seasoned food that respects ingredients without being precious about it. The room itself has an unpretentious energy; you're here for the food and the buzz, not to be fussed over. Prices sit comfortably in the middle ground, which only adds to the appeal.
