"The celeriac shawarma at Rovi is kind of a big deal. In fact, it’s borderline life-changing. Then again, pretty much all of the vegetable dishes at this Middle Eastern-leaning spot on Wells Street deserve a shout-out. The kitchen specialises in non-meat dishes that rival most carnivore options. The restaurant itself is bright and charming, in a minimalistic way. It’s a great spot for a grown-up, sit-down meal." - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"Look, we all want to be at a yoga retreat in California with eight kinds of roasted cauliflower to choose from. But seeing as this is London, Rovi is about as close to vegetable heaven as you can get. The shawarma is some kind of celeriac revelation. The stem tempura is some of the best we’ve ever had. And, well, if urfa chilli gnudi had their own phone, we’d have them saved in our contacts as SALIVATION STATION. Basically, you’re in safe hands no matter which vegetable dish you go for." - heidi lauth beasley, rianne shlebak, jake missing

"Aside from being a convenient middle ground and having a menu that’s accessible and delicious for every dietary requirement, Rovi is also a superb restaurant. This central London Ottolenghi outpost has a vegetable focus and a futuristic-feeling dining room with lots of wood, and some colourful art deco touches. Sink into one of the curved sofa seats and work your way through Szechuan tempura herbs, crumpet lobster toast, celeriac shawarma, and a beetroot chocolate tart that will have you DMing Yotam himself. You’ll come here as a group, and come back alone." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna
"To treat yourself Most Londoners would rather kiss a pavement, or worse, compliment their ex, than spend even a single, solitary second in Oxford Circus. But, for whatever reason you might find yourself shopping on London’s most rage-provoking street, you can find solace in the fact that Rovi is a short walk away. This place is anti-rage, like a lovely shot of vegetable valium, complete with comfy red seating, lapsang old fashioneds, and enough room for all of your shopping bags. Be sure to get the celeriac shawarma. " - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
