When you come to Opheem, you get an insight into the inner workings of my mind. We’re striving to push the boundaries with Indian flavours, but with cooking techniques from all over the world, some traditional, and some very modern. At Opheem, I’ll be using the same paints as I’ve always done, to create a very different picture, on a very, very different canvas. Why? Because to evolve and adapt is what makes us human, and cooking is what sets us apart from the animals.

Experiences

  • 10 Course Opheem Seasonal Tasting Menu

    Multiple dates available
    Our seasonal 10 Course Tasting Menu takes you on the full experience with us at Opheem. The menu is designed to take you on a journey through the regional Indian & International influences we utilise to create such a unique style of cooking at Opheem. This is the complete experience and what we our proudest of at Opheem. Our current menu is displayed on our website but is also liable for change as new dishes are developed.

  • 5 Course Opheem Seasonal Tasting Menu

    Multiple dates available
    Our seasonal 5 Course Tasting Menu is a shorter glimpse into everything we offer here at Opheem. Curated from our full tasting menu, this offers you the same depth of flavours in a more compressed fashion. Please add dietary requirements at the point of booking.

  • Lunch A La Carte

    Multiple dates available
    Our Lunch A La Carte is perfect for those after a Michelin Star quality meal without the commitment to a full tasting experience. Curated using different courses from our tasting menus and Opheem favourites. This menu changes frequently but a sample can be found online.

    Brilliantly memorable experience. The attention to detail is incredible, from the service through to the food, drinks, ambience and the whole experience generally. The 10 courses were all so delicious, and we loved all the little surprise snacks pre- and post-meal in the lounge area. Every single bite and all the drinks were 10/10. It was also lovely to have dishes served and explained to us by the chefs including Aktar himself! Despite being ‘fancy’ and Michelin starred which could have felt intimidating, we felt really relaxed and looked after. This was the most I have ever spent on a meal and yet I would say it is worth it for a really special evening.

    From the phone call 2 days before we ate to the last moment we were in the restaurant we cannot fault the service. The staff were all polite, engaging and knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble. The food was superb every course delivering in flavour and looks. All the tables have a good view of the kitchen and Aktar and his team hard at work. The wine list is comprehensive and caters for all price points. We would go back again which is always a good sign.

    Opheem was such an amazing experience. I really appreciated the change in scenery, going from the bar to the table and back to the bar, to taste different courses, as otherwise, it would have been very long to be sitting in the same place. Staff were incredible, attentive and engaging. Whilst the cost is a lot of money, it is not expensive if you think the value for money you get. It was incredible.

    Nice venue, attentive and friendly staff. Taster menu was interesting but not wow, I understand that it is expensive to prepare food to this level, but have had other experiences at similar starred restaurants where the food was wow!
