Costakis Anamnesis in Islington

Absolutely superb tapas restaurant with many vegetarian options and a lovely wine list including natural/orange wines, which you should definitely try. Brilliant young staff take this place to lofty heights.

I find it quite unbelievable that, after claiming to be a vegetarian restaurant for years, they’re still selling non-vegetarian Parmesan on their menu - they even mention this on the website (calf rennet is made from dead calves). The Vegetarian Society contacted them about this in 2014, but they don’t appear to have taken it on board. There are so many vegetarian cheeses these days (I don’t mean vegan cheese, I mean dairy cheese made without animal rennet), it’s a shame they couldn’t accept this feedback. I wonder how many unsuspecting people have eaten here believing their food to be vegetarian, when it isn’t.

Brilliant visit! We had a table of 6 adults and 6 kids! The staff were so helpful in pushing our reservation back as we were all running late; and when we got there they were friendly, accommodating and extremely responsive!! All the food was great as well!

I wish I could give zero. Soggy steak sandwich, overpriced, incredibly rude staff, generally unpleasant atmosphere. The whole experience felt like an assault on all my senses, this restaurant gives me anxiety. I don’t recommend it if you’re looking to have anything like a nice evening.

Great pub with good food. Menu changes monthly
