CERU Eastern Mediterranean Restaurant South Kensington

Stylish yet intimate gem offering Levantine cooking. A creative combination of cuisines bordering the Eastern Mediterranean. Much to delight the palate, watermelon salad, delicious lamb shoulder and much more. Moreish deserts and an excellent red wine. Attentive service and very popular which raised the noise levels and made it hard to hear each other at times.

Great tasting Mediterranean dishes with wonderful flavour. The dishes are smaller so you can try out a few selections. Highly recommend the zucchini fritters, baby eggplant and the polenta fries. The Lamb shoulder had also been recommended by prior reviews and it does live up to the hype as the pomegranate flavours on it are very delicious. Very tasty cocktails - I tried the cucumber martini which was my favourite, and also the Gin Revolution. There was a bit of a bathroom plumbing situation but staff were quick to act so that the restaurant was not inconvenienced. It is a small space which must be why it's a bit tricky to get a table. Would come again.

Delicious - we loved it! We were told that everything in the menu is gluten free except for the pita bread. We ordered loads of dishes because we couldn’t choose between all the options, and we both said they were all great except for the fried chicken (which was very dry). But that didn’t at all take away from the experience and enjoyment; just a recommendation to maybe not order that and order any of the other amazing dishes on offer! Will definitely be going back.

Amazing Levant restaurant. Wonderful range of dishes and I feel that we could have chosen anything of the menu. Standout was the starter of dips and fresh pitta (best I've ever had). Also loved the baby aubergine, and artichoke & pea salad. 3 plates each is perfect but include starters and sides in your 3.

Everything here was gluten free except the pita- menu was well marked. Lovely and extensive menu with so many incredible options. Small plates designed to share- order many. We had loads of vegetarian ones plus one lamb which was lovely. Loved the zucchini fritters and the mushrooms were so good we ordered another one. Will definitely be back.
