Latest critic review: August 17, 2011
Silvena Rowe's restaurant at the May Fair
Silvena Rowe is well known for her slots on TV's Saturday Kitchen and is instantly recognisable with her shock of blonde spikey hair. Her restaurant at this celebrity haunt is bound to be perfect for star-spotting and expect eastern-Mediterranean cuisine.

"In the newly heroic Turkish ocakbasis of Dalston, you can feast on this kind of thing for about £10 a head – if you’re insanely greedy. Here, we pay £172 with no wine, and three cocktails, each appearing with a £3 supplement that our waiter seems unable to explain." READ REVIEW

"The first impressions might be ominous, but the dishes are masterful. Although based firmly on the dishes of Turkey, Syria and the Levant, Rowe isn't scared to spice things up or deviate from the accepted way of doing things." READ REVIEW

"... for us, the food wasn't quite the draw we hoped it would be. "It's basically tricked-out Turkish-ish," concluded my friend, who writes about Middle Eastern restaurants." READ REVIEW
