Silo in Tower Hamlets

Me encanta el espíritu de cero desperdicio. La comida era interesante, así como delicioso. Buen servicio y, para un menú degustación, el precio era bastante bueno también.

He reservado mi hija de moda, leí algunos comentarios anteriores, así que era dudoso. El lugar es una delicia. Encantador servicio, mesas separadas, precios de vino sano y hermosa cocina. Ignorar los comentarios sobre tener hambre al final, estábamos saciados. La factura de 3 vino a 340 libras que incluía 2 botellas de vino y un par de copas. Definitivamente volveré.

Esta fue nuestra segunda visita a Silo y nos quedamos un poco decepcionados, principalmente con el servicio. Reservamos una mesa a las 8. 30 pero no se sentó hasta las 8. 50 y el servicio era entonces muy lento - ni siquiera se ofrecía comida o bebida hasta después de las 9 y para las 9. 30 Solo habíamos comido un plato. Nuestro pan se perdió por completo hasta que se señaló. Toda la comida duró 3 horas, que fue demasiado lento. En el lado positivo, gran parte de la comida era deliciosa - los tomates, judías verdes, cerdo, champiñones y sándwich de helado eran lo más destacado, al igual que el pan cuando finalmente llegó! También tuvimos un problema con una de las botellas de vino (era un vino natural que nos pareció demasiado ácido) y nuestro camarero era impresionante y lo reemplazó sin cargo. La última vez nos sentamos en el bar e interactuamos mucho con el chef Will y quizás eso lo hizo mucho más especial ya que tenía una gran energía y se podía sentir la pasión que tiene por la comida. Fue un poco decepcionante, por lo tanto, volver con mi hermana que estaba de visita de Escocia para una segunda comida especial, pero encontrar el servicio mediocre.

Realmente estábamos deseando nuestra experiencia gastronómica en Silo. Su ethos y cero - desperdicios de práctica gastronómica sostenible fueron un verdadero atractivo y estábamos deseando probar las delicias. Tienes que tomar todo en el menú cuando cenas por la noche, que sabíamos, es un menú degustación de 7 platos con un precio de 75 por persona. La comida es generalmente abrumadora, sobre salada y muchos de los aceites y aliños hacen que los platos en general sean bastante acres y desagradables. Especialmente pobre fue el plato principal de cerdo, la grasa no se rindió, la carne estaba seca, un final carbonizado desagradable al borde y las verduras también eran amargas en general dando un plato muy promedio. El dumpling de conejo salvaje también fue una verdadera decepción, tan fuertemente sazonado con pimienta de Szechuan, que dominó y nuevamente creó un plato desequilibrado muy amargo. Porciones pequeñas a lo largo de, por ejemplo, 3 medias piezas pequeñas (bien 2 y una corteza) trozos de pan entre 2 personas, 2 pequeñas astillas de cebolla cada una para la cebolla Troya a la parrilla, garum de venado, plato de ajo negro... . Aspectos destacados del menú: Koji quaver, treacle, plato de entrada de queso de cabra, el sabor de los tomates en los tomates florecidos, ricota de cáñamo, plato de garamel de cordero y el postre helado - platos de crema (sin embargo decepcionado ambos postres eran helado - crema, no se espera para la buena cena, y mostrando una falta de variedad aquí). Hicimos vino por copa, los precios son de alrededor de 8 - 15 por copa, o a partir de 50 por botella. Agradables vinos, pero un poco caro seguro. Aplaudo a Silo por el concepto, pero la ejecución necesita trabajo y los platos necesitan elevación y mejor equilibrio. El ambiente en general es limpio / escandi aunque un poco soso. Los servidores eran muy educados si un poco pasivos y todo el lugar podría haber hecho con una inyección de personalidad sobre la pretensión. En general no recomendaría, y aconsejaría muchos menús de mejor sabor.

El sábado disfrutamos de una increíble experiencia gastronómica en Silo. Situado en las afueras del Parque Olímpico, en una hermosa ubicación junto al río es donde se encuentra el restaurante. Silo es un restaurante sin desperdicios que se enorgullece de la sostenibilidad , ingredientes forrajeros y fermentación para producir que ahora puedo decir platos de asombrosa habilidad y lo más importante sabor. Llegamos para recibir una agradable bienvenida antes de sentarnos en el mostrador del chef. Aquí no solo pudimos charlar con el chef Will, sino también con el resto del equipo. También fue increíble ver y aprender sobre cada plato que se crea. El menú consta de un All In y un menú degustación Short List. También hay una oportunidad para incluir un maridaje de vinos si lo desea. Nuestra tarde comenzó con un vaso de burbujas de cortesía antes de decidirse por el menú All In. Comienzas con los Snacks que incluían el Koji Quaver , El pan Siloaf y mantequilla antes de terminar con la Cebolla Troy a la Parrilla. Ya estábamos siendo sorprendidos por los sabores y no podíamos esperar a lo que iba a seguir. Esto sería en forma de un delicioso y refrescante plato de tomates con ricota seguido de la increíble papa rosa ahumada. Si esto no fuera suficiente, entonces el Conejo Salvaje en una suma de diez centavos de masa madre era simplemente un genio. Esto nos llevó a los platos principales de Oyster Mushroom y Bruntona Pork. La seta era increíble y el cerdo era impresionante. Nos encantaba cada plato que se nos ponía delante. También disfrutamos de los cócteles y el vino incluyendo el Forest Negroni , Walnut Old Fashioned y el Skin Contact Orange Wine de Emilia Romagna. Ahora era el momento de los postres que comenzaron con el Amazake de Arroz Pirata y terminaron con el Sandwich de Helado de Siloaf. Antes de terminar con el té y el café Will nos llevó a hacer un corto recorrido por el restaurante. Aquí llegamos a ver y escuchar sobre todos los procesos que se llevan a cabo para crear cada plato y cómo utilizan las sobras para inventar nuevos platos. Realmente fue increíble escucharlo. Luego nos dirigimos de nuevo a nuestros asientos para disfrutar de nuestro té que llevó a su fin una tarde realmente fabulosa. La comida creada por Will y su equipo era simplemente excepcional , la amabilidad y el servicio de todo el equipo era de primera clase. Así que esto no será ninguna sorpresa cuando digo que Silo es una visita obligada y que vamos a estar buscando para experimentar de nuevo muy pronto. Gracias Will y todo su equipo para una fantástica experiencia gastronómica y esperamos verlos a todos de nuevo pronto.

A top restaurant to dine at while in London. Feel like they are a few steps ahead of other restaurants. The creativity is unmatched. The sustainability of what they are doing is respectable. Love their food.

Silo is one of the best restaurants. The theme is one of a kind. The food is beautifully prepared and tastes really good. The wines are amazing too.

Silo has a very creative, unique and innovative menu. The meal is fresh, vibrant and well presented. Very talented team of chefs and very talented servers. The overall experience was marvellous.

Such good seasonal food, nicely explained by the waitress and it was great to sit at the bar and watch the food being prepared

Another delicious meal. Always a great time dining here. The space is designed really nice. The food is really tasty. Great experience.

Exceptional meal. The food was innovative and creative. It was also very delicious. The team is friendly and professional. Would recommend.

Food concept and quality, great. Service, great. Wine, lovely. Quantity, terrible. Left hungry and had to eat elsewhere afterwards after spending £150 per head. There may be zero waste but that’s possibly because there’s almost zero on the plate. The first course was a single Brussel sprout each. Another course was a single sliver of lamb. A single dumpling. All very nice, but you should never leave a restaurant hungry and I have.

The food was amazing. Got the “all in” with drink pairing. Very tasty food and well presented. The concept is cool - being a zero waste restaurant.

Another incredible night, Silo never fails! It was the third and final evening of their invasive species series- Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall being the guest of honor! Dishes were once again fabulous, sampling Himalayan Balsam as well as some ingredients we enjoyed at the first one. The american signal crayfish tart is to die for, and I loved the Koji emulsion served with tropea which I had never heard of. They have a great drinks menu too. It is not often that I continue to return to a restaurant, but Silo really is something special. Well done Douglas and the team (bring it back next year!)

I don't normally review restaurants, but my family and i had the taster menu last week and it has been on my mind since. I read the the old review by the Guardian but thought it may have been a bit harsh and should judge ourselves, unfortunately it was spot on. Our waiter was very pleasant and knowledgeable, food was seasoned and cooked very well that's the pros. The cons. service was very slow we arrived at 7.30 and received our first corse around 8.20. Food portions extremely small for example 6 marinated mussels to share between 2, One ravioli to share had to cut in half, half of a chicken breast to share and so on. Would it bankrupt Silo to plate one our even two Ravioli per person? I don't know if i am in the minority but i go to a restaurant to enjoy my food and come away contented not feeling mugged. Total cost with wine £454.00 for four. Not a lot these days one could say. I have eaten taster menus in dozens of restaurants ranging from £55.00 to £300.00 a head but this has to be the worst value for money. I can't help think that some of the 5 star reviews may be the Emperor's new clothes syndrome.

Exquisite food, stunning setting but a couple of unforced errors detracts from the overall experience. The food is absolutely fantastic at a very reasonable price point. The zero waste ethos makes total sense and makes it a unique experience. On par or better than some other local restaurants which have a single Michelin Star, at considerably less cost. Everything served was imaginative, bold and interesting. There are two main problems which do detract from the above, and these are things that have been pointed out by other customers. Firstly the portion sizes are not generous: from a party of four two were left quite hungry by the end. It feels like it is not only too little... but far too little. Be more generous to your customers please! This is amplified by the second issue which is that the gap between courses is long, meaning that any momentum (or loss of hunger) can be quickly lost and the 3 hour-ish sitting means you really feel the small portion sizes. The food is fantastic but be more generous - its such an important part of dining out to feel like you've been well fed!

Awesome meal. Great atmosphere, wonderful tasting menu and friendly staff. Love the whole this behind the restaurant. The tasting menu was very reasonably priced. And the food itself was amazing. Each dish was so well thought through with a story behind it. The staff were all knowledgeable and passionate about the food. The way they use everything with no waste is ingenious. We enjoyed sitting at the counter seeing the chefs in action. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back!

Unfortunately I can’t think of any positives other than my friends I had dinner with . Very unfriendly and unprofessional service. We loved the idea of a zero waste restaurant but was a big disappointment . We came to wine event and the wine wasn’t matched the food. Food was not good at all. It felt more like a school project run by students than fine dining .

The main thing, served in unlimited quantities here, is virtue signaling. You go there to eat the concept not food, which is passable, but nothing to write home about. If you don't find pretentiousness palatable, this place isn't for you. If you do, and don't know how to get rid of your money, then it is. Full marks for choosing the location, though. It's lovely.

We have been to Silo before, and were very impressed. We went again on Tuesday as they had the first of their 3 part specials on 'invasive species'. They worked in collaboration with Matt Orlando to create this phenomenal dining experience. The night opened with a Japanes Knotweed Sour Beer brewed with Crate (the brewery downstairs). Very Sour! Food wise, we then tucked into grilled knotweed shoots, Pacific Oyster and Fermented Potato bread. The Pacific Oyster was my husbands favourite of the night. Then we moved onto a Crayfish tart (my favourite), Lions mane mushroom, Squirrel Kofta, Muntjac Broth, muntjac and Venison Garum Parfait. In my opinion the parfait was too big by that stage of the meal- very rich and rather late in the evening after very generous portions. Still, very tasty. They also brought along more bread which is always a winner! Finally, we finished with a Japanese Knotweed Sundae. The courses were generous and super tasty. The talk and education was brilliant. The staff were so friendly. My husband and I also enjoyed a cocktail, a bottle of Olivers Cider and a lovely wine. Great evening and would recommend people to sign up for part 2 and 3!

At first we didn’t realise that you could not order single dishes but had to order the tasting menu. It is a very expensive place. We appreciate the efforts to make it zero waste, food and servive was great, except the retired lamb (they named...

Sono stato in questo locale per una festa aziendale. Prima di tutto da segnalare che si trova a 45 minuti...

£62pp for one glass of wine, the very salty vegetarian taster menu plus service. Poor facilities for disabled people and poor lighting for those with vision impairment. Everything looked and tasted brown!

Wonderful food, friendly and attentive service and a great ambience. Truly great evening. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed a great evening’s experience

I had been to Silo in Brighton which I’d enjoyed as a family. Silo London, is neither family friendly nor suitable for disabled access. My colleague and I are both architects, and know the designer of the building so we were looking forward to eating...
