Hovarda in City of London, Westminster

Incredible resturant! Lovely staff, gorgeous food. Music on point

Great fun and vibe, the music of DJ Aav Din was exceptional. Reliable fun date night.

We went to Hovarda in Canarywharf last Saturday, the venue is unique and the music from this DJ, Aav D, was inspiring and fun.

We saw an incredible Dj (Av Din) last Saturday and it was an awesome experience with a fantastic well crafted music selection. This place is offering an exciting vibe that truly stands out in the heart of Canary Wharf. Definitely looking forward to going back.

Genuinely the best meal I’ve had in such a long time ! Impeccable food and service and not too busy (went Thursday eve at 7pm) basically had the whole restaurant to ourselves! I don’t usually do a Google review but this restaurant really deserved it because the quality of the food was outstanding ! I’ve also been before when it’s really busy and busy for a weekend and that was also fun! Everyone stands and dances around!

We went to the Canary Wharf branch and the food service and atmosphere was amazing. Every single person we encountered working there was very genuine and lovely. Highly recommended

Reliable fun date night. The food is good but not exceptional. There is a fun vibe, but the music is quite variable.

Used to be a really good place. Something is changing to the worse

The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was vibrant and lively, with the perfect mix of cozy and chic vibes. The DJ was amazing, playing great music that kept the energy up all night. Can’t wait to come back!

I had an amazing dining experience at that new place, especially the tiramisu- it was delicious. The ambience was warm and inviting, with a great live music and DJ set. The service was top-notch—attentive, friendly, and professional. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here and can't wait to return!

Good music, nice looking and nicely dressed people, nice venue, food is a bit expensive, service could be better. All in all, highly recommend for good vibes.

We recently visited the new Hovarda in Canary Wharf and were impressed by the spacious, stylish setting. The atmosphere felt vibrant yet laid-back, making it the perfect spot for an evening out. The cocktails were outstanding—my Mezcalit had just the right amount of spice, giving it a bold and exciting kick. If you're a fan of drinks with a little heat, it's a must-try!

We saw an incredible DJ (Av Din?) a couple of weeks ago, and it was an awesome experience with a fantastic well crafted music selection. This place is offering an exciting vibe that truly stands out in the heart of London. Definitely looking forward to going back.

Great Experience, and lovely atmosphere! Staff are super friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend!

The staff is extremely friendly and the cocktails are still delicious. Due to the changes being made in the restaurant the menu was very limited but I am sure when they are done with the new theme everything will be the same if not better than it was.

We went to Hovarda last Saturday, first of all the atmosphere is gorgeous: we highly recommend this DJ, Aav Din, such a lovely man and with so much talent! Secondly, everyone was extremely helpful, friendly, and responsive. The best venue in Soho!

Wonderful birthday celebrations for my partner last night. Big thank you to our waiter David who managed to cater to our large group perfectly!

We recently dined with high expectations after checking the restaurant online. Unfortunately, our experience was far from pleasant. We didn’t realize that the menu was strictly a six-course tasting menu, which was problematic for me as I can’t eat a lot . ( The portions were more than enough, and I was full by the end, confirming that sharing was the right choice. ) Our plan was to share a meal, but we weren’t sure if it was allowed, so we asked the manager. He agreed but seemed clearly unhappy about it. His attitude made us feel unwelcome right from the start. Throughout the meal, the manager never checked on us, and no one came to refill our water. It felt as though we were being deliberately ignored, which was extremely uncomfortable. The worst part of the evening was when we asked the manager for a cup of coffee. He outright lied, telling us they didn’t serve coffee, which was baffling. Just five minutes later, when our dessert arrived, a kind and professional waiter named Jesus brought us coffee without hesitation, stating that of course, they serve coffee. As someone who works in hospitality, I find this behavior unacceptable. It’s shocking that we were lied to just to get rid of us. It’s a shame because the venue is beautiful, and the food was excellent, but the service was one of the worst we’ve experienced in London. Unfortunately, the poor service overshadowed what could have been a wonderful evening.

Horrible experience, bad service rude staff. We had horrible experience going there after a reservation for a dinner and finding out that they didn’t have a table. We had to wait almost an hour for them to give us a table. It’s only set menu but poor quality dishes

A perfectly set menu. Amazing staff and food.

Aegean restaurant with captivating interiors 🌊 . Located in Central London, downstairs you will find a restaurant with cosy interiors and upstairs, a vibey bar with DJ 🎧 . We tried (starred are my favourites): Hummus, black sesame seeds, olive oil, chilli salt ⭐️Saganaki, aged feta, kataifi, truffle honey, basil Greek salad, barrel-aged feta, cretan rusk ⭐️Kleftiko, lamb, roasted potatoes, red wine jus ⭐️Vegan moussaka, potato, aubergine, cashew Tahini Tiramisu 🍹Grape and melon 🍹Strawberry 75 . 📍Location: Rupert street 🚇 Closest station: Piccadilly Circus 💰Price: £80pp (3 courses and drinks)

Excellent service. Very nice. I recommend it

OK, so the reviews for Hovarda are a bit hit and miss. My experience was tainted only by one thing: lavatories. More on that later. Lovely staff - David, my waiter, was exceptional - at no point did any enquiry seem inconvenient to them, and not only from myself but other customers also. Beautiful setting inside. The outside street terrace is a bit cramped and there is no pleasant view, but that is Rupert St for you. Food was excellent and exceptionally simple. I almost found that a disappointment. I felt the chef could be more elaborate with the presentation. The dishes were more than ample so take your appetite with you. Wine and drink prices are off the scale high, so be careful choosing; my Hellenic red wine was very plummy and strong so no complaints over taste. I thought the clientele verged on the glamorous, possibly because of the bar & nightclub upstairs. However, the washrooms were a health, safety and hygiene nightmare. The lights in the unisex cubicles were so low it was impossible to see the bowl, the flush, the lock, the paper, your own pee, just terrible. The sinks were beautifully marbled, but my god those cubicles need a rethink. In an era when personal hygiene has become so important, the team here need to rethink the washroom ambience, it just isn't acceptable. Despite this, a lovely dining experience and a super ambience in the main salon.

The Food as usual excellent. The atmosphere very nice add on them this time the impeccable service of Nicha and Chris. Both are amazing and do everything for you to be well served and happy. Amazing team Nicha and Chris.

Excellent accueil et cuisine haut de gamme pour cet endroit moderne et stylé, avec un chef talentueux , une équipe aux petits soins, the place to be in London !!!

Food and service are both excellent. Restaurant serves super fresh food. Perfect ambience, staff polite and kind. Wine list on point and knowledgeable sommelier Chris help us choose the right wine. Definitely recommend it.

Extremely unprofessional service. I booked for a dinner for 7 people and made sure we could access the later party at the second floor of the restaurant and after having finished the dinner they didn’t allow us to stay. The excuse was simply that we should have booked for a table upstairs. Very poor service, very low professionalism.

I recently had the pleasure of hosting my bday celebration at Hovarda. And it was outstanding experience from start to finish, Chris and his team made this day so special!!! Fantastic service that truly elevated our dining experience. We look forward to returning soon!

My best friend and I visited the restaurant. The restaurant ambience was amazing the food was tasty the service was fast. The menu wasn’t too wide but we found some dishes what we liked to try. Thank you

Hovarda is rubbish. We spent some amount of money and got food poisoning. Don’t go there

Mauvais rapport qualité prix. Pas de goût. Service correct mais nourriture pas terrible. Il y a mieux à Londres comme bon restaurant

Lovely staff and good food. Special thanks to Mesha :) she has most beautiful energy around the place.

Some of the reviews about pricing and staff are a bit harsh here, I think. The food was actually pretty good. Pricing to be honest is reflective of London restaurant pricing in central London. The staff were friendly - I did not get a sense of them being 'untrained' which is a pretty harsh judgment from some reviewers. The atmosphere is great - dinner turned into a really great evening with a live DJ set.

Love this place, situated in the centre of London, exactly with Leicester Square and Chinatown round the corner, the food was great and is worth a visit for people who are looking for Aegean food in London.

Utter disappointment. We had a table booked for dinner. The food was average at best….hit and miss depending on the dish, e.g the chicken main was over-grilled and drowned in a very salty sauce, but the taganaki starter was delightful. Worst thing was the service. After spending £400 on food (3 people), we were not allowed to go to the bar for a quick drink without ordering a bottle service! The bar closes at 1am and we asked to go to the bar around midnight, so obviously a bottle service was unjustified. The manager and staff were rude and didn’t care enough to keep paying customers happy. Bottom line is, I wouldn’t recommend.

We were disappointed with our dinner experience here; the place has so much potential with the cool decorations and club/bar-like atmosphere but the food is so overpriced and average. Same goes for the staff which is visibly untrained and unexperienced. Our starters were actually tasty; the baba ghanoush was one of the best dips I’ve had but everything after was disappointing. Also they charge you for sourdough for the dip which is ridiculous, how else should we eat it?! For mains we had the tiger prawn pasta and the baby chicken which were average at best; both were overly saucy. Service was average, very young staff which seemed unexperienced and untrained. There was no coordination between staff so we were asked several times the same thing. The waiter wasn’t very knowledgeable about the menu when we asked questions. Finally the prices are extortionate and unjustifiable. Won’t be back sorry.

Great food, amazing music, and they serve my new fave drink Bandida Mezcal.

Worse attitude ever! We had a group menu reservation of 10 people, high prices of courses for sharing 8 chicken wings as a main course for 10 people. That’s not the worse, as we asked just one song for our friends that are getting married and the DJ told us that he has a playlist of Greek songs and he is aware and he would put one. At the end, we payed 1600 pounds and they just ignored us with the manager just having fun alone and ironically asking us if we had time and goodnight. Totaally don’t recommend it!

Really beautiful restaurant, service was great, staff were attentive and knowledgeable about the wine and how this paired with the food. Food itself was fantastic and actually quite good sized portions. Would recommend the scallops, grilled squid and stone bass in particular. Staff were very friendly and helpful, even helping us take a couple pictures afterwards! The only ‘issue’ is that when paying, we were asked (on the card machine) if we would like to add a tip- this is on top of the 13.5% we had already been charged on the bill! We are happy to pay either the service charge or a separate tip, but it seemed a little bizarre to ask for both.

Really fresh, delicious food and great service.

This is a beautiful restaurant! So perfect for a special occasion. The food is very flavourful and cooked to a very high standard. The portion sizes are also great! We received very wonderful and attentive service. Would highly recommend making a reservation here

It's a nice place with a very tasty kind of food but it's too overpriced. We had 3 mezes, a broccoli salad and 2 main dishes and just refreshments and we payed about 62 eur per head. The food was really exquisite but still I don't think it's worth this price. And for those who plan to go there expecting that it's a Turkish restaurant, have in mind that despite the name it's not really Turkish I'd say it's more Greek. But of course this doesn't mean the food is not good :)

So OVER RATED. I mean good food is nothing without a good service. We ordered a steak £150 and they don’t give you any steak knife… it’s just pretending… I had to ask 3 times for mustard, the £150 steak doesn’t even come with a jus or a sauce … it’s basic … Pushy waiter. Disappointing place

This was my second time here in Hovarda, I was visiting from Madrid and the experience changed from the last time i went. I arrived by myself and I was waiting for my 3 friends. When they arrived they said they were in a reservation, it was raining and the security guy the hosts girls made them wait outside in the rain even though the lobby was empty, I had to stand from the table to pick them up and still the host girl said we needed to wait for another girl that was upstairs... Afterall the service from our waiter, I forgot her name but it was a new girl from Jamaica was amazing, she gave us good recommendations and was a memorable time. But then when we finished around 11:30 pm we wanted either to have a drink upstairs or at least see the place so if we come back, we know hows upstairs where theres the bar and music, and the host girl simply said no.. that we couldnt go upstairs to have a look, have in mind that this was on a weekday where the place was not crowded... In the end, beautiful place, nice food but the service was really bad. Is a shame that because of the bad service in the entrance, the amazing service from our waiter will not help to rate this place.

Great restaurant, amazing service

Very nice restaurant, large and comfortably furnished. We got a great table in the upstairs lounge. The service was 1A attentive. The drinks were very tasty. We ordered various things from the menu and everything was incredibly tasteful. Best Saganaki eaten there with truffles and honey. Incredibly delicious. The music was really great too. I'll be back.

Extreme prices for 1 star service and menu I don't usually give reviews like this, after 3 Thalassa cocktails I stayed in bed for 2 days. I am thinking of going further with a written report to the authorities. I do not recommend !!!

My wife and I had visited Hovarda for dinner & we really liked our experience. The food was great and service was very hospitable. Our server took good care of us & our meal/drinks were served promptly. As oppose to many reviews, we found the portion size for the mains very substantial - in fact both my wife and I got portion of our mains for takeaway. As far as value of money goes, it is definitley an upmarket restaurant with high prices so guests should expect a steep bill.

We had a nice experience with my friend for dinner, the vibe was great and the service was amazing, with a special mention for our waiter David. The +: the lounge bar area that transforms into a dance floor after 10 pm on the first floor. The food is good but a bit pricey, you deffo pay for the full complete experience! One of my favourite places for a night out in this area

My friend and I went for dinner and we got both sick afterwards. We both had the same food: crispy calamary, stone bass fillet and desserts of which I cant remeber the names. It is a shame because the service and atmosphere is good.

Went here for a dinner. Service was nothing to write home about. Food was average considering the prices charged. Dropped nearly 170 gbp on 2 drinks, 2 starters and 2 mains. The menu is very limited. The music was a tad too loud and overall the place feels like it's too cool for school. I wouldn't go back.

Unacceptable shop, all he cares about is getting as much money as he can from you. Beware when it comes time to pay they charge more than double the price to 'tip' the staff. When we told the manager to remove it as it is optional he told us we had to leave, without even having our drink. I'm definitely not going again

Κάναμε κράτηση, προπληρώσαμε 50 λυρες,μας είπε ελάχιστη κατανάλωση 25 λύρες το άτομο. Όταν πήγαμε 3 άτομα εκεί μας είπαν ότι πρέπει να πάρουμε υποχρεωτικά μπουκάλι (350 λύρες) και αντί αυτού μας χρεωσαν 600 + για φιλοδώρημα στ προσωπικό. Όταν είπαμε στο μάνατζερ ότι δε θελουμε να πληρώσουμε το φιλοδώρημα μας είπε ότι πρέπει να φύγουμε από το μαγαζί.

Food was good (but not very tasteful and almost cold when served) and ambience was nice but: waiter’s advice on wine seemed more oriented on price (saying that first price bottle is really not good; leaving us wondering why it is on the menu then) and after less than 2 hours, we were asked to leave our table within 5 minutes (then « ASAP ») due to another booking. We were never told that we had to leave for a specific time upon our booking or arrival, and a five min heads up is just not professional. Even more so when they had just served the desert. Would not go back or recommend!

Hovarda in SoHo was the dissapointment of our trip. In specific the lackluster baba ghanoush that then had an extra 10 pound charge for extremely hard sour dough bread. After management asked how the food was and being honest, the lack of response was disappointing. Ultimately for the cost of food, poor service, your money is well spent elsewhere in London… the only positive was our waiter, Jesus, who was warm approachable and down to earth. The saganaki was also unique and I would recommend them to continue that unique style. When we come back to London we will not be going back and will go to other better alternatives in the area, especially for the cost.

I went over the weekend for my friend's birthday and I have to say that Misha made our night!! Her customer service was impeccable, especially given our food allergies!! She went above and beyond to ensure that everything was up to standard and we were well taken care of through out the whole night. I wish there were more people like her. Professional, kind and trustworthy! Thanks again!

This restaurant took my card details to secure a booking and has randomly charged me beyond the cancellation fee.

A fancy bar in Soho with a perfect music.

"I finally got the chance to dine at Hovarda in London, and it absolutely lived up to the hype! From the moment I stepped in, I was captivated by the fantastic interior design. The food was simply exquisite, and the service was top-notch, just as expected from the founder's renowned reputation for quality venues in Turkey. Highly recommend experiencing the blend of Mediterranean flair and London sophistication at Hovarda!"

Had a birthday dinner and party which was awesome.

BALKAN ATMOSPHERES Dinner and after dinner in the Soho district. We chose Hovarda, a fashionable and trendy place that winks at Greek/Turkish culture. We are five. Let's go in. Definitely intriguing atmosphere, pleasant music in the background which will then leave the field free for completely different music. Our table is upstairs. First round of glasses. A Pineapple, a Cocorita (tequila based), a Chardonnay Kayra (Turkish label) and a couple of Champagne Blanc de Blancs. Even water, of course. We start with a series of appetizers. Three Seabass Ceviche, one Octopus Carpaccio and one Scallop. High quality sea bass ceviche, with red onion, capers and yellow tomatoes. Very good carpaccio, less exciting, but still of absolute quality. Another round of drinks. We decide to repeat the first round. Our dinner continues with a couple of baked sea bass fillets and two more roasted monkfish fillets. Completely convincing presentation and flavour. And, finally, a Roast chicken, a less inviting dish with roast chicken, graviera kritis, barley and corn. As side dishes, two (small) portions of Greek salad, green salad with barrique-aged feta (very tasty) and croutons with barley flour. We ask for the bill. The total expense is equal to 472 pounds which corresponds to approximately 551 euros. We are around 110 euros per capita, a decidedly significant expense, but it must be contextualised by considering some aspects, namely the type of venue, the very high quality of the raw materials and the possibility of continuing the evening until late at night. Meanwhile the music rises in decibels, downstairs a DJ with remarkable physique and artistic skills attracts our attention. People start dancing among the tables and the evening transforms.

Cena e dopo cena nel quartiere di Soho. Abbiamo scelto Hovarda, un locale alla moda e di tendenza che strizza l'occhio alla cultura greca/turca. Siamo in cinque. Entriamo. Atmosfera decisamente intrigante, una piacevole musica in sottofondo che, poi, lascerà campo libero a tutt'altra musica. Il nostro tavolo è al piano superiore. Primo giro di bicchieri. Un Pineapple, un Cocorita (a base di tequila), uno Chardonnay Kayra (etichetta turca) ed un paio di Champagne Blanc de Blancs. Anche dell'acqua, ovviamente. Iniziamo con una serie di antipasti. Tre Seabass Ceviche, un Carpaccio di polpo ed uno di Capasanta. Ceviche di spigola di altissima qualità, con cipolla rossa, capperi e datterini gialli. Carpacci molto buoni, meno esaltanti, ma comunque di assoluta qualità. Altro giro di bevande. Decidiamo di bissare il primo giro. La nostra cena prosegue con un paio di Filetti di spigola al forno ed ancora due Filetti di rana pescatrice arrosto. Presentazione e sapore del tutto convincenti. E, per finire, un Roast chicken, piatto meno invitante con pollo arrosto, graviera kritis, orzo e mais. Come contorni, due porzioni (small) di Greek salad, insalata verde con feta invecchiata in barrique (molto gustosa) e crostini di pane con farina di orzo. Chiediamo il conto. La spesa complessiva è pari a 472 sterline che corrispondono a circa 551 euro. Siamo intorno ai 110 euro pro capite, una spesa decisamente importante, ma va contestualizzata considerando alcuni aspetti, ovvero il tipo di locale, l'altissima qualità delle materie prime e la possibilità di proseguire la serata fino a notte inoltrata. Nel frattempo la musica sale di decibel, al piano inferiore una dj con fisico e capacità artistiche notevoli attira la nostra attenzione. La gente inizia a ballare in mezzo ai tavoli e la serata si trasforma.

It was a place we went to as a Turkish place and we were disappointed with the full meaning, the menu was also so limited that there were main dishes that were not worth the price at all, although the food was ordered, the drinks came too late, we listened to the dj performance and went for a slightly different atmosphere, but we almost fell asleep, the dessert menu came after dinner, and the menu had two desserts as a joke, and we also ordered from both of them, we ate a bitter strange dessert, thinking that the kadayif dessert, the food was so bad, and we left half of the table, and we were in a restaurant that was so bad that the person we paid £74 per head, I would have fun for 1 week instead of giving this money to a hobo, I don't recommend it in any way

Nous avons réservé à 21h45 et on nous a demandé d’être à l’heure sans quoi notre table serait redonnées. Nous avons attendu plus de 30 min avant d’être à notre table et la femme a l’entrée ne savait pas quoi nous dire. Un manager est venu avec un ton moyen en nous disant que c’était comme ça. Après discussion, nous avons eu un shot offert. Le repas était bon mais les tarif sont dingues. Le service est speed bref pas à faire!

The restaurant servers that we had were lovely and the food was good however the manager is insufferable and possibly the rudest I’ve ever encountered. The woman on the door felt the need to give us the once over for a dinner reservation—it was comical to say the least. I used to love Hovarda (especially for drinks upstairs) however I wont be going back. Judging by other recent reviews it seems like this place has really gone down hill. If you fancy a night of hostility over hospitality then this is the place for you.

What a disappointing experience… We went there on a Saturday night, we had a reservation (mandatory if you want to be able to eat here) and we arrived on time. Unfortunately, after more than 30 minutes of waiting, we still did not have our table. And nobody seemed to care about us! As a “present” (because I got a little angry) they offered us a few starters… that they wrote on the invoice at the end and tried to make us pay for!!! Globally food is okay but not unbelievable, the staff in the restaurant is cool but everything is very expansive (food very expansive for really small platters, wines incredibly expansive for poor quality)…

I visited Hovarda last weekend with a friend. Music and vibe is usually great however, this time was different as friend and I were both overcharged for our drinks. I ordered a £17 pound Negroni and was charged £25 (this is insane…). I didn’t say anything originally because I thought I was charged more to cover the cost of my friend’s drink but she was also charged £25 for a glass of wine…. She asked the bartender when she realized and he brushed her off rudely. This is completely unethical and the reason why I will not be returning. I would strongly recommend the business look into this as it’s not fair to paying customers.

Upon arrival I was greeted by the charming sight of a roped-off area and security guard that would be better placed outside a Revolution nightclub for teeny boppers. Nothing screams “fine dining” like feeling as if I’m about to queue for a club I have no interest in entering. The cherry on top was the delightful experience of being glared at by an uncommunicative pint-size bouncer who looked like someone had a wee in his Cornflakes that morning. Once inside, I had the pleasure of being treated to the eye-rolling expertise of the waiter, who clearly found my desire to enjoy a drink before ordering food to be a monumental inconvenience. Then there was the manager, who graced me with their presence to inform me that I simply must order immediately because, you know, they have other people to fleece – I mean, serve. After all, I had been enjoying my drink for all of 2 minutes. As for the food, well, it was fine. Nothing to write home about, but certainly nothing to rave over. The surroundings, on the other hand, were undeniably attractive – if you're into the whole "money laundering operation for Russian oligarchs" aesthetic. Hovarda is the epitome of style over substance. If you're in the market for rude waitstaff, a rushed dining experience, and food that won't rock your world, then by all means, this is the place for you.

Very sophisticated decor and good relaxed ambiance (although we ate early pre-theatre). The food was very pleasant and presentation was lovely, but expected more for the price - for the money you really ought to be being wowwed. The girl front of house was borderline rude and should possibly consider a career which isn't customer facing!

SCAMMERS. My friend and I went to the bar for drinks. I ordered a house white wine and she ordered a Negroni. The bartender charged us £24.40 each for our drinks. I’ve lived in London for several years and have been to many fine dining restaurants/fancy bars and a small glass of house wine has never cost that much. When I asked about it, the bartender said he only had one wine to choose from. At an establishment this big serving this many people, how do you only have one wine to choose from? And maybe you should have said this before pouring it and charging me? My friend’s Negroni was also £17 on the menu but yet charged her way more and had the audacity to ask us for a tip? Overpriced and rude service. Definitely doing a disservice to Greek culture. Trust all the bad reviews and take your service elsewhere.

MISHA IS AMAZING THE BEST GIRL I EVER MEET !!!!!!!!! She’s doing her job amazing !!!! Thank to you !!!!!!!!!!

The service was the best I ever had. Warming. Kind. Generous. Cheerful. Thank you to Mischa, the best waiter I had in London. Keep up the good work and welcome.

Thanks to Misha for the service!! She’s the best

Wir hatten einen lustigen Abend mit gutem Essen und Getränken. Der Service war sehr zuvorkommend und schnell. Unter den anderen Gästen gibt es viele, die nach dem Essen noch hoch in die Bar gehen um Party zu machen und dementsprechend angezogen waren. Der Dresscode ist also eher nicht leger. Auch wir waren später noch im oberen Bereich (in dem man als Gast des Restaurants auch ohne Reservierung noch einen Platz bekommt) um ein paar Cocktails zu trinken. Das Restaurant ist nicht günstig und da man sich alle Gerichte nach einem Sharing Concept teilt (und da schon was zusammenkommt), empfehle ich sich vorher die Preise anzusehen. So hat man einen schönen Abend ohne schlechte Überraschungen.

Disaster!!! Angelica one of the rudest hosts I’ve ever seen in my life! Racists and unprofessional on the door! Random cocktails and rip off! The only good thing about the place is music but too crowded!

Expensive but nice vibe. I recommend the Portman steak.

It’s good food, although some of it was cold. Portions are very small and staff aren’t that great. The DJ and vibe are worth it though on a weekend night.

All Perfect! Many thanks to Tomasz, we had really excellent service and evening. We will for sure come back.

Prices on the high side but I definitely enjoyed

Great spot for quality cocktails, clean and comfy surroundings both for couples and groups to enjoy great music 👌🏼👌🏼 definitely worth checking out 😜

Music, atmosphere and food were really good. Wish there were more options in the menu. Service was a bit poor, unfortunately. Would like to come there for the music again.

Discriminatory policy on the door.

Food was too-salty or no salt at all,good service

What a shocking disappointment. The food in this restaurant does not justify the price at all. It was average at best. You charged £55 for two skinny pork chops even though the menu stated that it would be 500g worth of meat. I was shocked when the waitress brought over our food. I felt pressured to order hummus alongside our bread basket even though we mentioned to the waitress that we would be fine with just the bread basket. It also didn’t help that the menu was very unclear. I asked the waitress to recommend the best dishes but she was clueless and I didn’t understand what she was saying. She didn’t seem too inclined to help us. I will like to warn people about coming here to dine unless you want to leave with an extortionate bill while still feeling hungry.

One of the best service in London, our server was remarkable and so thoughtful. We loved the food and enjoyed every bite. The new decor is wonderful and the vibes of the place is so cool. It’s a favourite on my list and I would highly recommend.

Don’t really review much here but, this one goes out to the blonde woman at the door who wouldn’t let me in after coming all the way from NYC last Thursday night. She played it off as a super exclusive place when it was dead inside I could tell. If you’re going to be rude to me, I’m going to go out of my way to rate what this place deserves. #Overrated

If I could give the place a ZERO believe me I would! I’ve worked and traveled to many restaurants throughout my life and This by far is possibly THE WORST restaurant I have ever been to in my life. Where do I even start?? Firstly we were seated on hard stools with no back and a table that so low and dark and cold you could barely eat your food without dropping it everywhere. The staff were absolutely appalling! £300 bottle of champagne that was warm! And they couldn’t even be bothered to pour it for us even that was too much to ask…we poured our champagne and wine all night ourselves as the waiters were too busy chatting up the women at the bar all night instead of serving their paying customers. We waiting over an hour for some bread in a basket, which was stale. Then they got our order wrong and forgot my starter and my main course. To top that all off the food they actually managed to give us was disgusting…raw prawns, and soapy raw monkfish. But BY FAR the worst thing of the night was the vile managers, I called them over 4 times and each time they said they would be back over to sort something out and never returned, instead just ignored me and sent over some free shots as if that would make up for completely ruining my birthday celebrations.I pray that this place goes bust in the next few months because you don’t deserve a penny of peoples hard earned money, the sooner you shut down the better! I wouldn’t recommend this pathetic excuse for a restaurant to my worst enemy, Please avoid at all costs!

Alban is the best part of Hovarda , he takes care of me, no matter. He and his team is one of the main reasons I keep coming back and spending. Alban and his team give the best service and drinks. They make it feel like home. Never let them go. And promote Alban

Blonde Lady at the entrance is evil, racist and rude. After making us wait in the que for 30 minutes, she demanded £1000 minimum spend for a party of 3 people (including myself). I was shocked. Then she said the place is fully packed ( which was a lie ) as she literally let a bunch of 6 girls and a 2 boys in front of me. Very rude, she shouldn't be managing a prison cell, let alone a club or restaurant. If the owner is reading this, you need to get a new manager and I appreciate you can't let everyone in, however there is tonne and a way without burning the bridge forever.

The blonde hostess is disgustingly rude. Terrible manners.

Very stylish restaurant combining modern touches with a lively ambiance with amazing DJ performance . We had a birthday celebration and an amazing experience…

Amazing evening. Great food, atmosphere, people and even more: amazing service! We were taking care by Maria, such a kind and caring manager of our table 🙌👌 Highly recommended

Maria was so hospitable and welcoming, she Made our experience so special. Highly recommend

We will definitely come back for drinks at the bar upstairs the service and the atmosphere is amazing

The food is stunning!! 5 stars to the chef 🤤🤯

We went to Hovarda for my friends birthday on Friday night- there was around 20 of us. We was booked for 8:30pm but didn’t get sat down until 9:30pm. We chose the 3 course set menu at £85 per person, turns out you get bought out all the choices on the menu and you don’t get your own portions.. which is fine. However.. the portion sizes are soo small that we was sharing 1 chicken breast amongst 5 of us with a bowl of Greek salad (enough for 1 person), the service was awful to add on top! After the food we wanted to go upstairs to the bar/JD area- however after spending 2k on food and drink- they requested an extra £100 per person to be able to do this. Such an awful money grabbing place.. won’t be going back! Disgusting experience.

Had such a nice relaxed dinner with amazing service!

Kind of dark (subjective) perfect for me cause I was on a date. Drinks are just ok. Can be over priced but I guess they are going for upscale!
