Are there any commercial products and has anyone tried it? I do recall some video somewhere of a US restaurant and people said it was reasonable but that could have been plant based.

The company behind Just Egg is vat-growing cultured chicken. It is limited to Singapore for now. See https://goodmeat.co/
I'm intrigued and want to read more about this, but that site is crazy. Takes >10 seconds on my phone to load the 'experience' which is a long-form scrolljacking narrative that starts with the history of the chicken.

Their FAQ page is really interesting, but I can't find a way to link directly to it.

40 MB of transfer for an FAQ. wonderful.

But yeah, it does look really cool and they say they are working with the FDA to bring it to the US.

I tried the impossible burger at Burger King. I could not tell a difference personally from any typical fast food burger. Would buy it again to satisfy a craving.
The Impossible burger is not cultured meat, it’s a plant-based product. OP is referring to this https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/dec/02/no-kill-...
Ah I misread his wording. I thought he was just asking for someone's opinion on restaurants that had served any meat alternative product, not specifically lab grown meat.
Impossible burger is still created from plants. "Clean" or lab grown meat isn't commercially available anywhere, it only exists is some labs AFAIK. It's sadly very expensive to make today.

There are a few startups working on this, Mosa meat and meatable are some examples.

That's not cultured meat. It's plant-protein based.
See my response to another poster.
