Ev Restaurant & Bar (Southwark)

• Even with the open front is great as it has a nice feel inside as well
• It is quite close to Southwark tube station and it is a small venue offering Mediterranean and Turkish dishes
• I usually used to go there only for baklava my favourite Mediterranean dessert and they were making irresistibly delicious
• I would usually have it with the typical Turkish tea which is amazing but quite strong
• The Ev Restaurant is under the arches
• The dining space at Ev is large with beautiful bricked walls
• No other decoration was needed to give the place a personality
• Corporate parties and friends getting together mean it is better to book and secure yourself a table
• We were seated near to the entrance door which in a windy wintery night was not a good idea
• I heard the menu was slightly pricier
• Occasionally when the train passes above the place is drowned by the sound of the tracks
• Ev's menu was quite lengthy and I left it to the friend who is a regular and knows the cuisine well
• Cold dishes were treated as starters
• The smell of freshly made bread is comforting
• The waiters and waitresses still kept up with their charming attitude
• The greatest challenge in London is not so much finding good food
• Relaxed environment that is rather pleasant to be in
• My friends were running late on New Years Eve and the restaurant was supposed to close but the staff extended service to accommodate us
• The lamb kulbasti was cooked perfectly and was delicious
• Only negative for me was the dessert was too sweet for my taste
• The ambience in the railway arches is great and it doesn't surprise me to see this restaurant rated highly on Zomato
• Selection of meze starters unremarkable but the mains (chicken and lamb skewers) were just awful
