Mediterranean
Our Soho-based restaurant has some of the Ottolenghi trademarks – platters full of salads greet customers as they arrive, a menu which celebrates bold flavours – but NOPI has a very different feel to the Ottolenghi delis. The marble is white, the brass is golden, the art is dynamic, the pace is a little faster. Upstairs we offer individual dining tables accommodating up to 6 guests. Downstairs we have two large communal/chef's tables overlooking our open plan kitchen and larder. NOPI’s menu changes according to the seasons with bold flavours and colours, broadly based on Mediterranean, Middle-eastern and Asian ingredients, using lots of herbs and spices. NOPI is open for breakfast, lunch, pre-theatre, dinner, and post-theatre.

    Yes, good restaurant for Sunday lunch. Fresh tasting food. Could do with a greater selection of cheaper wine.

    NOPI did not disappoint. We had to wait a while on arrival as our table wasn’t ready, but were given some complimentary nibbles to keep us distracted. The service was great - friendly and courteous staff. I couldn’t not mention how accommodating the chef was for my dairy, onion and garlic intolerances, which as you can imagine be sometimes very tricky. The food was absolutely delicious, from the sourdough bread with olive oil to the soft shell crab. The best bit - in-house pressed almond milk to accompany some seriously gooey, nutty and chocolate my freshly baked cookies. The atmosphere and decor is great but can get a little noisy, but can easily be looked at instead of lots of happy eaters. All in all, I would totally recommend.

    This was my second visit to Nopi. We thoroughly enjoyed the food but thought the portions were small. We asked about sharing and were advised that 3 main plates would be sufficient for 2 people. The portions are small and I would recommend ordering a bit more.

    GREAT FLAVOURS AND GOOD FOOD FOR SHARING. ESPECIALLY LOVED THE SEA BASS WHICH CAME ALREADY BONED AND TASTED DIVINE. THE INTERIOR STYLING WAS COOL BUT ALSO NOT TOO FANCY SO GREAT FOR A CASUAL BUSINESS MEETING OR DINNER WITH FRIENDS. LOVED THE COCKTAILS TOO , ESPECIALLY THE SUMAC MARTINI. WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!

    We took our son to NOPI for lunch to celebrate his 21st birthday. He's a vegetarian, we're not, and NOPI seemed to offer a number of interesting options which would cater for everyone's interests. We were not disappointed. I'm sure the individual main dishes are fabulous, but there were too many nice things to choose from on the starter/sharing dishes menu, so we ordered a load of those as well. All different, all distinctive, all delicious. Relaxed atmosphere and great service - attentive without being intrusive, helpful recommendations. Can't wait to go back.

    This was our second visit and had to eat early at 5.15 to get a table. The restaurant was very busy with a short wait for our table to be vacated. The waiter who served us asked at the beginning whose birthday we were celebrating but disappointingly there was no treat for the birthday boy as is often the case elsewhere. The food was of a high standard and all plates emptied. Due to pressure of numbers I suspect our waiter forgot our white wine was parked in an ice bucket away from our table and we spent most of our main course with empty glasses. It was eventually tracked down by another member of staff . There is obviously a lot of pressure on staff to turn tables ready for the next customers which gives a feeling of being rushed. It was very good food - but the aforementioned took the edge off a special occasion for us.

    Wonderful food, incredible team, great cocktails! Really enjoyed our experience, and I'm super grateful that the service team were understanding about my colleague being late (for emergency reasons) and they managed to give us some extra time for the table when she did arrive so that she could eat. Very respectful of dietary restrictions also.

    My wife and I travelled from Birmingham especially to go to NOPI and meet friends for lunch. From the moment we arrived the staff were fantastic. Great help in choosing from the menu. The service was prompt and excellent and the overall experience was outstanding. We look forward to trying other venues in the near future.

    We were disappointed this time because the waiter was in a hurry. The first and the second course were almost served at the same time. Because the second course was warm we could not postpone eating it. It was also very noisy ( loud music). Unfortunately we will not come back.

    No doubt it is a nice restaurant. The starters were delicious, but duck as the main course was too well done. That’s a pity. The fish was very good. As a whole the cook Thatcher eventing was very generous on the salt. It is an expensive restaurant and in the end the quality for money is in our opinion negative
