OMA

About OMA

OMA perches above Borough Market bringing Michelin-starred Greek cooking to families willing to queue (expect 50 minutes Friday nights, though reviewers report staff hand out crisps and drinks while you wait). The open kitchen runs on charcoal grills where chefs Orestes and Ryan work the counter, and parents regularly bring kids to watch the action from the chef's seats. Highchairs squeeze onto the heated outdoor terrace under the market arches, buggy-friendly if you grab a table early. "The food was delicious – best watermelon salad I've ever had!" notes one regular who brought coeliac family members and found staff genuinely knowledgeable. The salt cod labneh with crispy bits and hot honey hummus with chickpeas appear on every other table, while mains like oxtail giouvetsi and charred lamb are standouts. The olive oil ice cream with sea salt is a highlight dessert. Lunch feels calmer than dinner's market buzz, and the spanakopita makes vegetarian kids happy without fuss.
