OUR PHILOSOPHY

‘O ver comes from the Neapolitan dialect to mean: “Truth”

We do our best to reflect this with the authentic, delicious and healthy food we freshly prepare every day.

A Real Italian menu with a strong Neapolitan soul.

‘O ver uses the unique ingredient of Pure Sea Water, which is extracted from the purest areas of the Mediterranean.

Less sodium and more minerals makes the food lighter and easy to digest.

Pizzas, breads and all the seafood dishes are made with Pure Sea Water.

We directly buy our ingredients from small independent Italian producers and we only use the best local suppliers.

We only serve Authentic Neapolitan Wood fired pizza, pasta from Gragnano, fresh fish & British meats.

Every single dish is handmade with love and patience by our chefs, in full respect of the tradition.

Simple recipes, only the best ingredients and a lot of Passion, less is

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

O Ver Borough is celebrated for its authentic Italian cuisine and "fantastic" staff, offering a delightful dining experience. Guests rave about the "best pizza ever" and the "super fluffy, light texture" of the tiramisu. While some find the pricing high, the quality of food, especially the "seawater pizza," remains a highlight. The venue's charming ambiance and convenient location near Borough tube and London Bridge station add to its appeal.

Explained to the waiter that I was pregnant and that food needed to be well cooked. I ordered the nduja croquettes. I bit into one that was piping hot on the outside but stone cold in the middle where the meat was. I told the waiter who kindly replaced them but now I am very concerned of the risk of listeria or toxoplasmosis from inadequately cooked meat

Lovely small restaurant with an excellent menu. Staff are really knowledgeable & obliging. There was a wide choice of starters & then the 3 of us chose different pizzas from a very wide selection. Delicious & definitely a speciality here! Looking forward to coming back when in this location again. Excellent choice if visiting a local theatre as it’s just one minute away!
