About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
At Karv, we honor the primal connection between fire and food. Our culinary artisans carefully select premium cuts of meat, focusing on quality and marbling to ensure a truly exceptional dining experience. With a deft touch, our skilled grillmasters masterfully tend to the charcoal and wood, harnessing their energy to create a symphony of flavor and tenderness. The gentle crackling of the flames and the intoxicating aroma of smoke create an ambiance that transcends mere dining. The slow, deliberate cooking process over the fire allows the meat to develop a tantalizing char on the outside, while remaining moist and succulent within. The result is a steak that boasts a harmony of textures and a depth of flavors that will leave you craving more. Join us at Karv, where we invite you to experience the symphony of flavors that arises when timeless craftsmanship meets the primal embrace of fire. Indulge in the captivating allure of charcoal and wood-grilled perfection.

    The food was lovely. The service was exceptional and really fast. And they went above and beyond to make sure we had a good time. Parking on the weekends is super convenient too.

    Steak was given medium when asked for rare. We were asked to leave before an hour because they needed our table for someone else.

    We chose to celebrate Eid here and it was great. Ryzen our waiter was amazing, he is always so kind and helpful whenever I visit. The food was great (as usual). The Ribeye is always cooked really well, I really enjoyed the gravy & peppercorn sauce. I had the rice for the first time and it was full of flavour.

    Walked into a nearly empty restaurant. Waited a minute but then sat down at a table by the window. Was then greeted by the only server, said I had a booking and she asked us to move to a table by the only other person there. Then she asked him to move. And before we even get onto the food, she then said we could move back to where we were. Anyway. A few minutes later food was ordered. 2 steaks and 2 sides. 25 mins for food to arrive which was a bit long considering the other customer already had their food. Steak was great. Cooked and rested well. The char was amazing. Sides were a really good portion. When we went to pay, I then realised the order was wrong. One rib eye and one sirloin, but we had a fillet instead of a sirloin. I did mention this but I just got a blank look. Good food. Ambiance was non existent with no music on as background noise. The service however shocking.

    Beautiful food and lovely accommodating staff, a good variety of options to choose from. However i would say the restaurant is quite small which when it’s busy it can feel quite cramped inside.
