The new venue will also feature a 16 cover private dining room and glass-walled wine room that seats up to eight guests.

Aster’s opening marks another addition to the dining line-up at Nova Food, which is part of Land Securities massive Nova development, which includes offices, shops, restaurants and bars.

It will be joined by the likes of The Social Company’s Hai Cenato and Australian eatery Timmy Green, which are also opening at the glitzy development.
