Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the ribeye, called the standout of the meal, with a light drizzle of salt or the chimichurri, and several praise the steaks as juicy and cooked perfectly. Close behind are the shared platters, which reviewers describe as generous enough to take leftovers home, along with the bone marrow, smash burgers and wings. The brownie dessert and the creamy mushroom and mash sides also earn praise, and staff are repeatedly called friendly and welcoming. Complaints centre on the space and the bill. Several call the room cramped and very busy, and one found it pricey for a meal that was good but did not wow. The fillet was chewy and the chicken breast dry for one diner, others found the buffalo wings underwhelming, and one reviewer's rump steak was disappointing, with their two mentions of it ignored. Several suggest booking ahead, and one pre-ordered so the food arrived quickly. One birthday table had the staff sing and bring out a chocolate brownie.

“We ordered the platter for six, and it was more than enough for all of us! We couldn't finish it and ended up taking some of it home. The steak was tender, the chicken was perfectly seasoned, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved the rice! Considering the generous serving size and how delicious everything was, it was definitely worth the price. The bone marrow is also a must-try! The staff were super kind and welcoming. One of the staff members from Nepal even offered to take a photo for us when he saw us trying to take a selfie. Thank you so much! I'm so sorry I forgot your name. Highly recommend this place, especially if you're dining with family or a group of friends.”

The staff were welcoming attentive, and made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. The restaurant has a warm atmosphere, making it a great place for family dinners or special occasions. If you're looking for high quality halal steak in London I highly recommend Karv Steakhouse. I'll definitely be coming back again”

“I came here with 2 other people, we shared the platter for 4 people and it was the perfect amount. The steak was very juicy (please see attached pictures) the smash burgers were very nicely seasoned and juicy, the chicken wings had a lovely flavour, and we also ordered 2 portions of the bone marrow. All in all, it was a very good meal, the flavour and quality is there and the portions are generous. They get very busy so we pre ordered what we wanted so that when we sat down at our table, we didn't have to wait to long for the food to come out. We didn't wait for a table because we went in and booked a table and they gave us a time to come back I personally would give this restaurant 8/10”

“It's a unique, small restaurant, which is always very busy, so best to book in advance. It's popular because of the food - beautiful, fresh, perfectly cooked stakes, delicious homemade burgers, very tasty and tender chicken breasts and wings. Lovely sauces and great, fresh side dishes. Coleslaw was my favourite - incredibly fresh and fragrant, delicious! But the meats beat it all! This restaurant is non-alcoholic, but the cocktail are very nice, and we were happy to take a break from alcohol. We have now been there twice, last year and recently, and there's consistently great food. Service is good, staff is friendly and helpful. I recommend for meat and stake lovers.”

“I came to Karv for my husbands birthday after seeing the great reviews online. We came from Leicester and I had quite high standards as we are lucky enough to have brilliant steak restaurants in our home city. Karv hit the spot, the service was fabulous it was quick yet the food was piping hot. The waiters/waitresses were friendly and welcoming. We ordered the bone marrow, a rib eye steak, fillet steak and two mocktails. The steaks were cooked perfectly , the portions of the sides were generous and the mash was 10/10. I’d definitely recommend coming here. It’s not ‘boujee’ but if you appreciate good food you will enjoy it. Yes, as many have also said in their reviews the place is cramped and it is like having dinner with your family! But, it’s a small price to pay for the quality of the meal and the service you receive.”
