Our Cauliflower stem goujons are made from cauliflower off-cuts sent to us from the Ottolenghi delis and restaurants. Served with a bright yoghurt and caper sauce, it’s a nibble we absolutely love. This dish combines both our obsession with using the whole veg and our play on classics.

A special day on Thursday, celebrating our new Head Chef and launch of a new menu.

ROVI has always been all about fire, vegetables, fermentation and regenerative produce, cooking seasonally, and using fruit and veg when they are at their best.

Yesterday, we spent the morning at our Kitchen Garden at , touring the new season-produce with chief grower, before heading back to ROVI for lunch from the new menu.
On the menu was Pickle and Ferment Plate of Tromboncino Kimchi, Sauerkraut, Turnip Pickle and Bread and Butter Pickle, all grown at Wolves Lane, Regenerative Beef Carpaccio and Braised Regenerative Beef Feather Blade sourced from , Pumpkin muhammara and pumpkin cheesecake by Pumpkin Greg (who’s such a charmer!).

All celebrating the veg, low waste cooking and regenerative farming practices.

A big thank you to our wonderful suppliers who were able to make the trip down and celebrate with us..

Mussels with ras el hanout broth and wild garlic shatta.

We smoke our red gurnard bones over the grill, making a fish stock infused with saffron for our broth, and garnish with Wild garlic stems that have been fermenting since the spring.

Grilled mackerel served in a punchy tamarind rasam broth. We love tamarind spice as it brings a unique sweet and sour flavour to the broth. We serve alongside sticky sushi rice balls to soak up all the broth, All Greens tomatoes, crispy shallots, coriander and curry leaf oil.

Chef Andy collecting beetroots from our Wolves Lane delivery.

We take inspiration from a Georgian dish for this one, Beetroot and walnut pkhali. Beetroots are roasted in the coals. We peel back the charred skin then blend with walnuts, vinegar and spices. The earthiness from the beetroot is balanced perfectly with the sweet cherries and the citrusy green olive salsa. Andy finishes the dish with shiso from Wolves Lane and cherry powder.

Another Ottolenghi’s Flavour cookbook special for our new Set Lunch Menu. Andy talks us through a dish that sings of summer.

Only a handful of ingredients are used for this one, making the quality is key. We source the very best from our friends Shrub and Wolves Lane.

Here we toss the runner beans and peaches in oil and season before lightly grilling. We finish with mint, lemon juice, goats cheese, honey and smoked almonds.

Padron peppers are gently seared on the grill with smoked almonds and a refreshing walnut vinegar.

We think the best seat in the house is the bar, with a view straight into the open kitchen to watch the chefs work the grill. Stop by and grab a seat, we’re always open for walk-ins.

Our Story

ROVI is a marriage between the Ottolenghi flavours that we know and love, and the intensity of our Robata grill. It is something that we haven’t done before. Bold flavours and vivid colours, inspired by the bright spices of the Middle East, the rich scents of the Mediterranean and the smokey intensity of Japanese barbecue.

We source our produce locally, with emphasis on not only delicious food, but also sustainability and seasonality. Our wine list makes us feel joy. We champion small producers committed to making wine with low intervention, both in the vineyard and during the wine making process. Our cocktails trace the changing seasons, utilising oft-discarded ingredients.

The restaurant is an expression of everything we love. The heart of Ottolenghi remains, yet white washed walls are replaced with deep earth tones. The lavish salad displays are available to take away during the day, before the grill takes centre stage in the evening.
