Someone on Google reviews said this has moved to 330 Upper street. I went, it’s not the same. More expensive but smaller portions, poorer service and not as good quality. 1 hot and 2 salads £9.50. 3 salads £6.50. You don’t get a hot side with hot main here and the portions are small. Unfortunately it wasn’t any where near as good :-( I wont be visiting the KOD on upper street again. Bring love La Valle back

Outstanding, tasty healthy food. Really good portions and great variety. It’s rare to find all of these qualities without paying a fortune and this part of London lacks anything that comes close.

Spent the previous week in France where to be absolutely honest we paid lots of money for some very average food ,got back to London the previous night and sort of got ripped off again with another uninspiring Thai takeaway ..it makes you wary doesn’t it but after being greeted by the two wonderful funny effervescent ladies at La Valle you sort of know that this is one of those real places it seems so hard to find and that is before you have tasted the food ..a salmon salad for £9.50 that I shared with my partner was the best thing we ate in the 9 days we were away ..broccoli and snow pea salad ..a salad of mango and other delicious bits and pieces and a roasted sweet potato salad too ..totally totally blown away by this place ..don’t walk past and get a meal deal ..you wanna eat healthy ridiculously tasty food for £9.50 a pop come here ..oh the ladies said it’s all generally sold out by 2 pm and I’m not surprises ..truly outstanding

Looking for somewhere near our hotel that catered for a vegetarian and a meat eater with nut allergy. Uncle Google recommend La Valle and we are so pleased he did. We were greeted and served by a delightful chap who explained the dishes and the prices and plate sizes available. Wow! Fresh and delicious flavours. Salads were different and beautiful. No nuts used in any dish which took away a major worry. We both ended up eating veggie moussaka & veggie balls, both so tasty. Huge portion at an extremely reasonable price. We'll certainly be returning when next in London.

Went mid afternoon and had a plateful of vegetarian food (main dishes and salads) for £9.50, which was reasonable enough. The mains were average but the salads were good. Overall, good value for money. Plenty of veggie/vegan/healthy options The decor and furniture are mismatched throughout. with the eating area looking like a scruffy storeroom. Could look a lot smarter with a good makeover. However, the food was healthy and reasonably prices.

Nice and easy. A plate of all you can eat self-serve buffet style for £8.50. A range of hot dishes plus bowls of healthy looking salads. We had strogonov and three salads. One of the salads had a tasty orange dressing. Then a lovely homemade tiramisu with coffee. Friendly relaxed staff, as the lunchtime rush was finished. Would definitely go back if visiting this part of London again.

Since discovering La Valle a month ago, I have visited the other branches (Foodilic) in Brighton & thought La Valle was the best in terms of flavour. Was happy to return for an evening meal with a friend & though my fave salads weren't available, there were still enough tasty selections. My friend was very impressed with the halal selection in the hot food section. I tried the lasagne again which is always yummy, and also the jerk & Thai chicken dishes. Both were tasty. Also had a coffee & a ginger/ apricot tart to finish. Other than the fact the tart could have done with more ginger & I found a string in the pastry, it was a perfect end to the meal. This place is defo recommended & I will make a point to visit La Valle again when I am next in London 😋😋😋😋😋

Primero pasamos por La Valle después de haber tenido una comida decepcionante: los grandes platos de verduras se ven tan acogedores y, por supuesto, a todos les gusta todo lo que puedes comer, ¿verdad? Nos propusimos volver a probar tanto el desayuno (6.50) como la cena (8.50). Para el desayuno, obtienes pan y baguette con miel, mermelada y mantequilla a un lado. La comida caliente consistía en tocino, salchichas, frijoles horneados, frijoles picantes, tomates y lo que parecían huevos instantáneos en polvo. Absolutamente me encantaron las salchichas y las judías picantes. Podía lamer el plato seco de la salsa, estaba tan sabroso. Los champiñones también tenían una patada picante muy agradable. Las bebidas están separadas pero a un precio razonable. Los cruasanes también estaban separados pero con un café 2. 50 Volví el mismo día a cenar: no había dejado de pensar en los platos de verduras desde que los vi la otra noche. Todos fueron absolutamente creativos y deliciosos, aunque parece simple. Realmente me gustó el mangetout, judías verdes, ensalada de guisantes con cáscara de naranja y avellanas. Vegetales cocinados a la perfección, así que aún conservan el crujido. También había una ensalada de coliflor que parecía estar en una salsa de mostaza, pero había un toque de jengibre y había sultanas. delicioso ???? Para la comida caliente nos gustó la lasaña y el gulash no estaba mal. Las verduras fueron el evento principal para nosotros y tuvimos demasiado para comer. Había tiramisú que habría sido extra pero estábamos demasiado llenos para haber comido más. Por lo que pagamos, la calidad y las porciones de comida que tuvimos fue muy buena relación calidad-precio. Me sorprende que no haya estado más ocupado las veces que estuvimos allí. El servicio fue bueno, con un personal amable.Los únicos aspectos negativos fueron: - el desayuno callejero de huevos en polvo de aspecto extraño que parecía tofu nadando en leche - que evité - temperatura tibia de los alimentos calientes, pero esto puede ser difícil de evitar con el uso del baño maría - falta de claridad de lo que está incluido en el precio, ya que la forma en que se muestran los alimentos en la ventana sugiere que se incluyen cuando se aplican cargos adicionales e. sol. pizza para servicio de cena - el personal nos había dicho que estaría abierto para el desayuno a las 9 a.m. pero cuando pasamos por haber comido en otro lugar, nos dijeron que los fines de semana el desayuno se servía desde las 8 a.m.La próxima vez que esté en Londres, me encantaría volver a visitarla. Recordaré los deliciosos platos de verduras durante mucho tiempo y espero que me inspire a ser más creativo con mis ensaladas.Definitivamente recomendado para una comida sana y deliciosa a buen precio. !

Passed the previous day at lunchtime and they had all you can eat buffets for £8.50 which looked quite nice. They seem to be offering a good veggie and vegan selection, perhaps due to name change.Decided to try breakfast, (at 10:00 so towards the end of service). All you can eat for £6.50 (drinks extra). Small selection. Vegan sausages were OK, but awful skins on them that you had to remove rather than eat. eggs (scrambled only) had run out.Was replenished after some wait. Most dishes in warmers were warm rather than hot. Pretty basic. DIY toast came with marmalade only. Tea cheap at £1.60.OK, but have had a lot better (in London), cheaper.They were putting out lunch as we left which looked a lot more appetising (At £8.50).

Esta es una ayuda para ti mismo tanto como quieras café. Los platos disponibles alrededor de 6. 30 pm entre semana no estaban en su mejor momento e. sol. la pasta parecía que debía ser buena pero estaba un poco congelada y no muy sabrosa. Pero es barato: 7. 50 un plato. Y la tarta de coco estaba muy sabrosa. También, muy útilmente, enchufaron mi teléfono ya que no tenía batería. No estoy seguro de si volveremos, pero si está buscando un lugar para una comida abundante, de bajo costo y generalmente saludable, entonces este es el lugar. (Confusamente, esto también se llama La Valle, en Google, por ejemplo).

Was staying nearby and stumbled across- what a blessing in disguise! $7.50 pounds for all you can eat is nothing short of a miracle in London- let alone for tasty vegetarian food. Fresh, healthy food right in the city. All the dishes I tried were super delicious but I couldn't go past the Vegan Moussaka, honestly one of the best things I've ever tried, the vegan bechamel is literally amazing. Will be back for sure!

Tried out this hidden gem after reading the great reviews. Small seating area to back with wooden carved stools and tables. Three meat dishes on offer including jerk chicken. Lots of veggie delights to be had. Enjoyed warm butter bean stew with citrus sauce, mixed tomato salad with herbs and jalapeno slices a revelation. At £7.95 each as much as you like a bargain. Checked with staff and after 9pm it is take out boxes only, but very popular. Hope to visit again

Había estado en Brighton y me encantó darme cuenta de que Foodilic también está en Londres. Me encanta el concepto: una abundancia de ensalada (hojas reales, no pasta, cuscús, etc.) y verduras. Todo fresco, casero y un montón de cosas saludables a un precio increíble. Por ese motivo, le daría cinco estrellas. Desafortunadamente, se tuvo una llamada muy cercana con respecto a los alérgenos. Encuentro esta historia un poco difícil de creer pero es verdad. Le pregunté a la camarera qué tiene el gluten. Verificó con el chef y me dijo qué podía comer. Carga un poco de la ensalada de hojas en mi plato y me doy cuenta de inmediato de lo que parece ser trigo bulgar entre las hojas. Le pregunto qué le dice a la camarera que no sabe, pero me asegura que ha comprobado con el chef que no tiene gluten. Insisto en que ella doble cheques. Ella vuelve a decir que es libre de gluten. Sí, pero ¿qué es? Ella trae al chef para mí. Su respuesta "no tiene gluten, viene de un paquete". ¿La conexión entre el gluten y los paquetes siendo? ? Dije que es trigo bulgar. . . de un paquete. Él dice que no le hacen nada, solo póngale agua para cocinar y deje que se pelee. Dije que no me importa cómo lo cocines, el trigo bulgar es trigo bulgar (hemos confirmado en este punto que es trigo bulgar). Para mi sorpresa, a pesar de que la clave estaba en su nombre, se negó a creer que el TRIGO bulgar tiene gluten. Una llamada tan cercana. Luego pregunté: “¿Qué hay en el pollo que hace que no esté libre de gluten por interés? "(Como le había dicho a la camarera, no estaba libre de gluten). Luego dice que es libre de gluten. ¿Qué? La camarera también está confundida y él estaba diciendo que ella había entendido mal. En este punto, tenía muchas dudas, así que pregunté cuáles son los ingredientes: la salsa de soja dije que hay gluten a menos que esté específicamente libre de gluten. El chef se estaba riendo y con incredulidad que podría haber gluten. Dije tráeme la botella. Él me lo dio y tengo razón. Él ríe. Luego también me trae otras dos botellas de algo de la cocina para que le diga si hay gluten aunque esté en negrita como un alérgeno. No podía creer su pereza e ignorancia y lo peor de todo es que se reía de mí en lugar de preocuparme o disculparme. En la defensa de las camareras, ella estaba mortificada y estaba mal informada, así que no la culpo. Esta historia es atroz de todos modos, pero especialmente en un lugar que se promociona a sí mismo como un lugar saludable y amigable para los veganos, usted pensaría que tendrían información clara sobre el gluten e incluso estaría haciendo que las cosas sean tan amigables al gluten como sea posible. Por favor, resuelva esto antes de que alguien con la guardia baja o que no sepa mucho sobre la comida, coma algo que no deba.

Foodilic es una joya. Su comida es creativa y se ve bien. Ha existido por algunos años escondido en una fila de tiendas poco atractivas a lo largo de la carretera de Pentonville a 5 minutos de Kings Cross. Usted puede caminar por delante fácilmente si está apresurándose. . . . pero deténgase y entre porque ahora es aún mejor con un buffet "todo lo que pueda comer" por un precio fijo de menos de 7 por persona para el almuerzo y la cena. Hay carne, por ejemplo, pollo, lasaña, ternera y una variedad de ensaladas interesantes. Sabes que no estás comiendo alimentos producidos en masa y que esto te llenará y será bueno para ti. ,,,, y todo esto por un precio muy razonable. La decoración divide la opinión que tengo que decir: me recuerda a Gaudí a la Barcelona, es decir, a todas las formas orgánicas onduladas en movimiento, pero no es por eso que vienes aquí. Es la comida y el valor. Pasar un buen rato.

I’ve visited here several times and also a branch in Brighton. There are large trays of imaginative salads to go with meat, fish or vegetarian options, it’s all fresh and delicious. Today I had the vegetarian moussaka with mango salad and a green salad for £7.20 to eat in. Fresh juices are also available. Many people working nearby grab takeaways but at the rear of the place there are unusual bulky tables and stools.

I visited one morning with a friend who is vegan who had researched this place. Staff were not that attentive and took a long time to make my coffee. The avocado on toast breakfast was not as described, toast undercooked and poached eggs rubbery and over cooked. Nice atmosphere and buffet lunch food looked good. Although staff did not seem to know much about veganism for my friend even though they advertise as serving vegan food. Overall quite a disappointment.

I used to come here regularly for lunch and often picked up their half price salads at the end of the day. I stopped coming here as it was quite pricey for lunch every day, so sought out other alternatives, but I recently came back to see what options they had and found that everything had changed, from the setup of the interior to the weighing of food. What used to be a fairly pricey lunch which often came to around just over £8, now cost me almost DOUBLE at staggering £14.67!!! That was without drinks, and whilst being conservative with portion sizes. In disgust, I almost decided to leave behind the salad and not bother to pay, but the shock stunned me so much I just handed over my card and vowed never to come back again! It's a shame as I normally bring fellow workers with me here, though shan't be anymore.

This is a creative really good and well cooked quality take away. THey have excellent 1/2 price deals vefore closing time. Vegetarian, Vegan and Salad is available beside fish, Colourful well prepared and healthy BUT the restaurant changed recently its old system where you were served portions. Now it is self service and the food gets weighed in the end. It is not only more expensive now, you also have to deal with spoons that many touched sunken into the meals. I much prefered the old system!

It was amazing and the staff were so friendly, especially the owner/manager. Such a shock to go back after "refurbishment" and the self service thing. Prices have doubled. I haven't been back since. Now every time I walk past, the place looks empty, whereas before you had to queue for service. Please please guys, can you see that this business model is not working? You were the best place to get a healthy lunch in Kings Cross - the BEST. I don't want to see it go under. I am a willing customer but I can't pay theses crazy prices. I really miss the way it was...

The price has almost doubled (now weighed), and they have refused to give us our 10% corporate discount which we had for years. A real shame.

We had such a nice lunch here ! All the salads have so much flavour. The spices added were so balanced. Definitely worth visiting !

This used to be my 'treat' place for lunch, it was always a little bit more than an average sandwich, but worth it for the quality of food. However they have recently changed the pricing structure and the customer is definitely a lot worse off... I could have possibly excused it and made it a monthly as opposed to weekly treat, but it seems that the quality of food is also sliding, the fishcake which has up until now been delicious, homemade and packed full, looks like it has been replaced with a manufactured variety; something much more run of the mill and lacking full flavour, so the prices are up, the quality is down... I think I'm going to have to find somewhere else local to have a tasty lunch! :(

Such a shame to see that Foodilic's prices have nearly doubled in the space of a month. £11 for a salad box??? Really?? Today Foodilic lost a very frequent and loyal customer.

I used to have lunch here very frequently prior to Jan 2017 when the prices went up and the portions went down. Feels like they decided to do a refurbishment and are now charging the customer for that decision. I used to get a cup of soup for £1.80 which also got a stamp on the loyalty card (5 stamps got me a free cup of soup). They now charge £2.80 per cup of soup and no stamps. Prior to Jan 2017, you could get a salad box with lasagna or stuffed peppers, etc, plus 2/3 portions of salad for £7.20. They now have much smaller salad boxes that are priced on weight. I got half the amount of food I used to get for £7.74. The food is good quality but their prices are now ridiculously high. For a restaurant that claims to promote healthy eating, they now do so at very high prices and very small portions.

I went today to collect my lunch having been a regular customer for almost 3 years. Got to the counter and found the lunch which I used to pay just over £7 for was now £13.81!! This is almost double the price!! A real shame as myself and our company used to use it several times a week.... we will not be returning.

I love the food at Foodilic - good, wholesome, healthy, homemade cooking in an area which is still a bit of culinary desert. But as the previous reviewer said so eloquently - they've made a huge mistake with the changes they've made over Christmas. Yesterday three of us went in for lunch and paid an average of 40% more for the same quantity of food than we did at the end of last year. That's completely ridiculous. And such a shame. We all want to support a small independent business but just can't at those prices. Sort it out guys. It's commercial suicide.

Always a firm lunch favourite working across the road, we were eagerly awaiting the re-open after Xmas. New layout is much better and easier to move around but new system is terrible. Having to serve yourself does not mean you are in control of the price - you can't exactly put some back after you weigh it can you?! Plus I am useless with tongs so I split both salads I tried to serve on your floor (sorry).There is no idea at all how much things weigh, e.g. average serve of this salad weighs xxg.I made a small salad box with chicken and it was a 28% increase on previous meal deal price. I could get two pizzas next door for less, I could get a full meal at Nando's round the corner for less...in fact I could eat anywhere nearby for the same or less and get more food for the money.On a positive the food does still taste nice. Made sure to savour every mouthful as I will not be back.Two loyal customers lost and from the sounds of all the other unhappy customers this place won't be here much longer!

Just to keep a friend company, I decided that eating meat was bad - for one day - so we had the vegan lasagne which I can say was very good. On a plate with salad. A very healthy and tasty meal.

Best place to go for lunch if you are around Kng's Cross area and want to eat healthy. Suitable for vegetarians, vegans and meat eaters!

I went with a friend who was vega. There are many items here that are vegan, some not but I think it's more popular amongst the vegans.

Takeaway salad came to over £8 - extortionate! That's the price of a decent sit down meal. The salad is sold by weight, which they must price salad at about the same value as tuna or caviar! The food itself was little better than the £3 salad from the Tesco supermarket around the corner. Avoid unless you enjoy the feeling of being mugged.

I found this place on TripAdvisor looking for reasonably priced vegetarian food near Kings Cross station and Foodilic fit the bill perfectly. My partner and I both opted for the vegetarian lasagne with two sides. We got a hefty chunk of lasagne and the rest of the plate filled with two different types of tasty salad. Very reasonable for just over £7. We ate in which was perfectly fine for us, although there isn't much seating and it wouldn't be suited for big groups. Overall, great choice of veggie food for those wanting a quick lunch but fancying something a bit more exciting than Pret! I'll definitely be eating here again when I'm passing through Kings Cross.

When working in London, this restaurant is just a short walk away. I've been three to four times and love their food. The salads can be viewed from the front window are amazing. There mains are good too. TOP TIP: to save money get a meal deal for £7 something and get a very generous portion of two salads with your main. Buying just salad is charged by weight and will cost £8 to £9 for a plate full. Will continue to visit!

Wonderful food in a small restaurant with an interesting decor. Mainly vegetarian and vegan but so delicious and enjoyable. We will definitely visit again next time in the area. Thank you.

We had stumbled across this place back in April. Just walking past the food in the window looked amazing so we went in ended up having breakfast. Eggs Benedict, perfectly cooked. Stayed at same location last weekend. Decided to go for breakfast again. But was a bit late so had a lunch instead. Main and choice of two salads good size portions. Very hard to choose as various choice of salad mixtures. All looking fresh and delicious. Can't say I understood the weighing of the salad? Didn't get why they did that. ? I had spinach and feta in filo pasty with salad. Partner had escalope of chicken with salad mixtures. We both enjoyed what we had. Going back the next day for another of their lovely breakfasts. I only wish we had this kind of food outlet nearer I'd be in their everyday.

Not a vegetarian, just someone who's likes tasty food and I was more than happy with the lasagna and two salads to take away. Sensational value after 6.00pm. All three items had a clear and distinctive flavor. If I was in London for longer, I could see this as becoming a regular haunt. Enjoy!

Chance had me in King's Cross on a Saturday morning feeling hungry. I passed by this small cafe and peered into the window seeing a variety of interesting salads - nothing spectacular that couldn't be bought as Planet Organic, Konditor and Cook or Ottolenghi. But in a street of fast food chains, it seemed the freshest thing there. I bought a small box of salad (see image) and was shocked to be charged £5.50 for something (even with overheads absorbed) could not have cost more that £2. If it was fabulous then that would mitigate, but it was ordinary fare, outrageously priced. Avoid.

This small unassuming place serves the best fresh salads and mains e.g. salmon, quiche, fish cakes, etc.Perfect for take out to take to the office or a nice space at the back for sit in.Just soooooo tasty!!!!

I have no complains on the service, the man was polite, informative and when he mentioned "The salad is sold by weigh, £1.60 per 100 grams take away or £1.90 per 100 grams to Eat int", I should've opted for going out the door, instead I tod him what I wanted for salad and when I was told the price, I could've done with salad for the rest of my life! Total £6.10 for approximately 4 scoops of SALAD. It was tasty enough but for the price I'm really sorry but you won't be seeing me as a customer EVER!

NOT VEGAN FRIENDLY. Had terrible trouble communicating with staff member. Advised I was vegan and she stated that two of the 'mains' were suitable & in addition all of the salads. This was not the case, my aubergine had cheese stuffed inside it & my salad dressing was made with honey. I only found this out after when I came online and checked the menu. There are no labels listing ingredients which really wouldn't be difficult as I am told it's the same food every day. On top of all of that the lady at the counter was very rude. I explained to her that I was meeting a friend and had arrived there first but she didn't take her eyes off me. Scowling and looking over as I sat at the table. It made me feel really uncomfortable on a personal level and physically sick. Will not be returning.

This is a small restaurant with food prepared by passionate people who understand that good food is about ingrediants. An absolute pleasure. We will definitely be going back and already recommended it to friends.

Probably the only place to get a lot of unique vegetarian bites as well as main courses. Efficient and friendly service and the whole family loves the choice.

My best meal in all of London - period. Just a short walk from kings cross train station. Why is it so good?The food is full of flavors you just don't get elsewhere - combinations like kale with lentils and pomegranate - or pitied with basil and blue cheese - or fresh peas with mange tout and balsamic - and all that with a grilled portabella mushroom with fresh herbs and olive oil for £6. Huge portions and a quaint place to sit and eat and very friendly staff - the flavors and tastes and textures matched with the price is - well, brilliant

I know about the one in Brighton so on recent weekend out we came here. Most of my group are vegan so I had little choice...........The food is actually the best vegetarian i've had. There are many varieties and it's all so tasty that you forget that it's mostly vegan.

I have eaten in and taken out. Every time the service has been faultless - the staff are helpful and thorough. The only downfall was the seating. It was a little cramped and not the most comfy seating but the food and service was super.I will be back again...and probably again!

Like the previous review, we too booked online (on 28th June) and arrived yesterday to find the new owners up to their ears in decorating. They were most apologetic, but Quandoo are still taking bookings. BEWARE!

Vivíamos en Newington Green y nos quedamos muy contentos de ver que había un restaurante como 56 que ofrece una variedad de comidas diferentes y que parecía agradable y acogedor por dentro. Probamos un par de veces y eran realmente decepcionado con la calidad de la comida o realmente impresionados. No parece muy coherente. Lo que era la camarera muy coherente que nos sirve muy educado en todo momento.
