Moira is a Turkish restaurant on Mastmaker Road in Canary Wharf, a short walk from South Quay DLR, and one of the best-known Anatolian grills on the Isle of Dogs. Moira Canary Wharf describes its cooking as rooted in Anatolian heritage, with family recipes and a charcoal grill at the centre of the kitchen.
The menu covers the full Turkish table: hot and cold meze selections, red lentil soup and börek, then Adana kebab, lamb shish, chicken köfte and beyti from the grill, plus İskender served over pitta with tomato sauce and yoghurt. Large mixed grills for two or four suit groups, and there are seafood, salad and pasta options for anyone who wants something lighter.
With a ground-floor dining room, an upstairs space and set menus for groups, it works well for office lunches, celebrations and relaxed weeknight dinners close to the towers of Canary Wharf.
