At Karv, we honor the primal connection between fire and food. Our culinary artisans carefully select premium cuts of meat, focusing on quality and marbling to ensure a truly exceptional dining experience. With a deft touch, our skilled grillmasters masterfully tend to the charcoal and wood, harnessing their energy to create a symphony of flavor and tenderness. The gentle crackling of the flames and the intoxicating aroma of smoke create an ambiance that transcends mere dining. The slow, deliberate cooking process over the fire allows the meat to develop a tantalizing char on the outside, while remaining moist and succulent within. The result is a steak that boasts a harmony of textures and a depth of flavors that will leave you craving more. Join us at Karv, where we invite you to experience the symphony of flavors that arises when timeless craftsmanship meets the primal embrace of fire. Indulge in the captivating allure of charcoal and wood-grilled perfection.

    Karv was really really nice. I enjoyed myself and I witnessed the reason why Karv is so popular. The only downside was the space on the tables and how tight the seating was. Apart from that my experience was fantastic.

    A great evening at KARV. We booked for my husband's birthday and happy to say it was absolutely worth the hour + drive. A nice intimate restaurant, tables a good distance away. The service from staff was spot on. They were attentive without being over bearing. We ordered both tacos and the marrow and the were delicious. The flavours of the tacos were nice and the slaw and sauces complemented the meats. The marrow was (if I may say) sublime! The combinations of flavours was just an explosion in the mouth and perfect with the toast! We ordered the platter for 4 which was a perfect size. Both steak were perfectly cooked/seasoned, the mash melted in the mouth, chips were crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy inside. The chicken wings were nicely spiced with a tangy undertone. The chicken was a nice size and tasted nice and had a lovely charred taste, All in all I would definitely be back and would recommend it.

    This is a little hidden gem, tucked away in a side street under some flats in Stoke Newington. It’s quite small and you’ll probably need to book. However the food is worth the visit . Wood cooked Bone Narrow, Argentine Ribeye Steak, Cooked to perfection. Limited Menu but what they do, they do really well. Non Alcoholic Mocktails as they don’t have an alcohol license, even they were lovely.

    We were a table of 3 and got the platter catered to 4. It was absolutely delicious, I like every single element, everything was well seasoned and tasty! No complaints at all (rare for me to not have any suggestions on improvement) The food was prepared quickly and service was nice and comfortable. There was no loud annoying music, just a nice calm ambience with everyone enjoying themselves and chatting away

    As they were late to give a table although we booked online, the starters were on the house which was really nice of them. Food was great, only downfall the chicken was really hard. We ordered all the starters. And 1 family platter for 6 people.
