Josh Ozersky TIME Magazine 09/05/2019
The contestants are already established chefs playing for charity money, so there are no stakes for anyone, and little in the way of backbiting... And about as entertaining as a bottle of Nembutal. Go to Full Review Alan Sepinwall Uproxx 09/05/2019
There are some colorful personalities on display and five-plus years into the franchise, the production team knows exactly how to put together a briskly-paced, entertaining hour of television. Go to Full Review Mike Hale New York Times 09/05/2019
Part of its appeal has been that it focused attention on the chefs' virtuosity, and not merely on the weekly competition. Go to Full Review Andy Dehnart Reality Blurred 03/25/2020
Top Chef Masters was, for a time, better than its parent. Now it's dropped to the bottom of the pile, as Top Chef Just Desserts was a far superior spin-off. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

M R @RT21493658 Jul 7 Season 3 was a total disaster for me compared to the first two seasons. The judges were pitiful especially the young carrot peeler and the young lady. I don't like judge James oseland at all. He stands with a smile. I would like to see these three judges actually cook and let the chefs judge them. Bring back the scoring of the chefs.
