Kirvem is a Turkish restaurant and bar at 663 Commercial Road in Limehouse. The modern dining room combines polished surroundings with the warmth of traditional Turkish hospitality, making it suitable for family meals, dinners with friends and celebrations throughout the week.
Cold mezze includes hummus, tzatziki, baba ganoush, kisir, stuffed vine leaves and roasted aubergine with peppers and tomato. Warm bread, olives, tarama and seafood starters make it easy for a group to build a varied opening spread across creamy, smoky, fresh and savoury flavours.
The charcoal grill produces lamb shish, chicken shish, kofte, wings and the Kirvem special lamb, generally served with rice and salad. Sarma beyti, slow roasted lamb shank and casseroles add comforting alternatives, while burgers and chicken dishes extend the selection for guests seeking familiar flavours.
Sea bass, salmon, calamari, king prawns and a mixed seafood casserole provide substantial choices beyond meat. Cocktails, wine, beer and homemade alcohol free drinks support the food, while the broad menu and lively bar atmosphere allow Kirvem to move naturally from casual daytime dining into longer evening occasions.
