Another lovely Ottolenghi spot in London. Great atmosphere and food. Sharing concept and we ordered a few dishes to try. Lovely burrata and grilled squid. Cabbage was also good. Jerusalem mixed grill with chicken was delicious too. Note that it was hard to distinguish between the chicken meat and the insides. Overall good food and vibe.
This plant-based Mediterranean gem boasts an exquisite culinary journey. The vibrant atmosphere complements the flavorful dishes, creating a dining experience that transcends expectations. The menu, rich in plant-based goodness, showcases the diverse and delectable flavors of the Mediterranean. Each dish is a masterpiece, beautifully combining fresh, wholesome ingredients that burst with taste and innovation. The ambiance, a perfect blend of warmth and sophistication, enhances the overall enjoyment. A must-visit for those seeking a delightful intersection of plant-based cuisine and the rich tapestry of Mediterranean flavors.
Is it me, or is ROVI slipping?
I’ve been a loyal once-a-year customer, but this year I stopped twice, and I couldn’t help but notice the standards have slipped by a lot. Service took forever (regardless of it being full or half-empty), and both of the lst two times I had missed orders. The last time I was thereI decided to do a fully vegetarian dinner and I realised that, compared to the deli, veggie dishes had surprisingly little flavour.
The evergreens like the schwarma were still great, but for the price, I had much better time in their deli or Honey&Co/Smoke.
I’ll be back next year with a hopefully slightly better review.

Absolutely love. The vibes are on point - trendy but not pretentious, warm but cool. Flawless. Good for a date or parents visiting or team dinner or friends.
Service is impeccable - think fine dining but without making you feel like you don’t belong there.
All of the food is delicious and creative. I especially enjoy how many vegetarian options there are. Vegetarians are not second class citizens at Rovi (or any Ottolenghi restaurant) 🌟

Good food - well cooked. We ordered the cabbage, celeriac, partridge, and the hake. My favourite dish was the hake. Cocktails were very good. Service was mostly great - a little harried at times which is understandable as they were busy. We were seated right next to the open kitchen which was both entertaining and distracting.
Everyone in my party had heard of Ottolenghi before, which is the last name of the chef who opened a number of eateries, of which ROVI is one. The atmosphere is beautiful, modern and inviting. You'll find a creative mix of ingredients in each dish and the small starter portions allow you to try a variety of flavors. It's lovely to go with a group of 4-6 to fully enjoy all the offerings!
Reservations seem to be important. We were graciously ushered along as we came up against our allotted reservation time, as the next party had arrived.

Carrots and shawarma were fantastic starters.
We found the grilled hake and whole lemon sole to be kind of underwhelming. The sole tastes like a pizza (apologies for my unrefined palate).
The miso fudge was disappointing. Eats like a caramel, was not what we were expecting either.
All in all, there's some good food here but for the price, you're better off going elsewhere.

Phenomenal food. I have tried Ottolenghi and wanted to try out his sister restaurants. Everything we ordered was delicious. It always seems like each garnish, dressing and dip is selected with so much thought and precision. We ordered the artichokes, grilled mushrooms, fritters, potatoes and a few other things. The desserts were okay in my opinion, but certainly quite unique. Wine pairings were great and the service was impeccable. Would recommend!
