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.

    This was our first time visiting Riva Blu, and I would definitely go back again. I have just came back from Rome, so didn’t think the food would hit the spot, but it definitely did. I had pizza, and asked to swap some ingredients which they did. My friends had pasta dishes. Portion size was perfect, drinks were lovely. It was my friends birthday and they gave him a surprise slice of cake at the end, with a candle and sang happy birthday. It was really nice overall. I would definitely recommend going there. Oh and the toilets were nice and clean too, nice decor, and there are even seats outside in case your waiting.

    Wonderful, enjoyable evening, food and service excellent - will definitely go again. We dined early-ish which meant it wasn’t very busy. However, next time I would take a wrap/jacket as ac was fierce, it was 28 degrees outside, also meant food cooled quickly. Our dining experience was marred only by a very loud conversation and use of bad language by diners at another table which was a shame - appreciate not Gaucho’s fault.
