This guy earns every single star and then some. My husband and I live in LA and had been to a bazillion different furniture shops looking for a stationary island (cut to obnoxious lady who said unless we were willing to spend $5000, we weren’t worth her time) when we finally decide to Yelp “kitchen island.” What pops up but this magical place. And then we think, Irvine??? Why would Yelp place it as #1 when its so far away? Now I know, because this place is absolutely worth the drive. First of all, the owner, joe, is just awesome. He’s super funny, friendly, and passionate about his work. To use one of joe’s words, his show room is pretty bitchin!!! And even better, joe worked with us to create our own unique piece. Once we chose our design, Joe kept us in the loop through many many many email updates with pictures and everything. I’m now looking around my home going, what else can I ask Joe to make?

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! Amazing craftsmanship! As we went thru the remodeling of our home, we spent so much time searching and brainstorming on what kitchen island we want. Instead of a built-in island, we decided to go for an island-table furniture; something that is one of a kind, functional and with a modern rustic look. Thank goodness we found Killer Kitchen & Table! Joe (along with his crew) define(s) what an excellent customer service truly means! Joe put so much thought into every little details of our kitchen island table. Joe won’t settle for an “acceptable” product, his goal is to create a “I super love my table Joe!” And so yes, we SUPER LOVE our kitchen island table! And now Joe is going to build our living room end table!

It is so amazing that I was able to get my own island customized.

I had no idea that it was even possible but a friend of mine told me about this company so I decided to check them out.

I had a consultation with Joe and he was really able to grasp the idea of what it was exactly that I wanted. He helped me figure it all out.

The table came and I was really amazed at how it looked. It was just beautiful and complimented my home very well.

I want to thank Joe for his outstanding work!!

I found Joe on Craigslist and loved the pictures of his work. I wanted a kitchen island but I wanted something really special. So I took a chance and went for it. I was a little nervous since I never even went to the shop to see his work in person. Joe walked me through the whole process because I really don’t know anything about wood. He really wanted to make sure I got exactly what I wanted. When my table arrived I was amazed it was exactly what I envisioned but even better! He’s a artist just like I suspected! Now I have the beautiful island I wanted and look forward to many years of enjoying its beauty sitting around my island with my kids and friends. Thanks Joe and your team!

Joe. Is. Awesome!!! He has made two tables for us. Our first one was a beautiful bistro table. Always a compliment whenever we have guest.
The second piece he made was “a princess desk.” He customized it just for me. Put special touches to it to make it unique. I love it!! Some great ideas have been had on my beautiful desk.

If you want a great looking piece in your home, go to Killer Kitchen and Islands and see Joe! Forget Restoration Hardware and the snooty pants who work there. You will get nothing but awesomeness from Joe!!

Our experience with Killer and Joe was five stars in every aspect. We drove to his shop because we weren’t sure exactly how we wanted our dining room table to look. All we knew for sure was we wanted a unique table. Joe’s enthusiasm for producing a quality product and pleasing the customer was apparent the minute we met him. He spent two hours with us explaining the tables and listening to our needs, then he built a table that is a piece of art and is functional in all the ways we wanted. The experience was fun and we love the table.

These kitchen islands really are killer. I couldn’t be happier with my new island. I recently purchased a new home and needed an island for the middle. Joe has an awesome selection and you can customize them. He was so eager to give us what we wanted and helped customize something amazing for a great price. He made it work exactly for our kitchen. When my husband went to pick it up it didn’t fit in the backseat. Joe brought it home for us so we wouldn’t have to wait. Everyone who comes over compliments us on how amazing it looks. It’s the cabernet blanco table in the photos. Go to killer kitchen island and table!

It’s difficult to put into few words what an amazing experience we had with Joe and Killer Kitchen Island and Table. My husband and I did not think we’d actually end-up purchasing anything the weekend we went in to browse, figured we’d eventually come back after we saved up a few more pennies. But once we looked at their work in person and talked to Joe, we were sold. It was hard to NOT start the customization process.

Beyond the beautiful work, Joe is VERY honest with what he feels will work vs. what won’t. This is great because there’s no bs-ing and you know he takes pride in his designs and wants you to be highly satisfied with the end product.

Now we have a BEAUTIFUL dining table and stool set, customized to our needs. What we absolutely love is the amount of detail put into the table and into the stools. It’s evident he was listening to our needs as the dining set is a reflection of that.

He also made a beautiful piece of art to hang in our home that will complement our table colors. This wasn’t expected, but very appreciated. Killer Kitchen Island and Table will be our go-to studio when we want something custom-built for our home.
