Overview
Located at 2–4 Bedale Street, OMA is a culinary gem that redefines Greek dining in London. The brainchild of restaurateur David Carter (Smokestak, Manteca) and Chef Jorge Paredes (formerly of Sabor), OMA presents a menu that blends Greek traditions with Mediterranean and Levantine influences.
The restaurant's name, derived from the Greek word for 'raw,' reflects its commitment to fresh, high-quality ingredients and a minimalist aesthetic. Diners can expect a variety of dishes, from wildfarmed laffa bread and hummus masabacha-style to innovative small plates like ajvar with mizithra and hazelnuts. Signature offerings include the spanakopita gratin served with malawach and the wild red prawn giouvetsi, a rich orzo dish finished with deep-fried prawn butter.
OMA's interior features an open-plan kitchen, allowing guests to witness the culinary craftsmanship firsthand. The dining area, designed with whitewashed walls and rustic accents, offers a warm and inviting atmosphere. An outdoor terrace provides views over Borough Market, enhancing the dining experience.
The beverage program is equally impressive, boasting a 450-bin wine list that emphasizes coastal varieties, along with a selection of inventive cocktails like the clementine gimlet.
Recognized with a MICHELIN star, OMA has quickly become a standout in London's dining scene, praised for its inventive menu, vibrant atmosphere, and exceptional service.
