Been to Gem quite a few times over the years and they never failed to deliver excellent food and excellent service with decent prices. The latest visit just confirmed this. Great selection of generously sized dishes kept our group busy and happy on a budget! Highly recommend. Check it out online.

Six of us ate here on Saturday. We were so disappointed. We ordered wine and they didn't bring enough classes and despite asking several times for an extra, we ended up getting our own. The starters arrived without any plates and we had to ask four times. Only five of us were served our food and two were stone cold. We waited 35 minutes for the food to be made warm and the remaining dish to arrive. The others had finished their meals. We didn't get the starters that we ordered nor the bread. No explanation. They didn't have enough of the dishes that we asked for, nor a bottle of the wine. The manager did offer us free liqueurs and took the bread off the bill but he was affronted when we didn't want to pay the service charge. It is expensive for what it is.

Delicious meats! Ambience/Location: 5/5 Located at the top of Upper Street, the restaurant is large yet quaint, and very pretty. Decorated with antique wooden wagons, the turquoise colors also makes it airy. Service: 5/5 I've been here many times, and the service is always very friendly and attentive. Food: 5/5 If I'm in Angel and looking for a mixed grill, this is the place to go. The portions are large and the food is fresh and delicious. All the meats are seasoned and Grilled to perfection, the hummus and halloumi are delicious and the salads are worth a try as well. Price: 5/5 The portions and quality are fantastic for the price. Go on the weekend for bottomless, or during the week for great lunch deals. Overall, a great place to go for any occasion or just for great food.

My friend and I visited last night for the bottomless option. There was some slight confusion as we thought we’d booked Hidden Gem for the bottomless but there was a private party there. This was no problem for the team though who just moved our bottomless to the main restaurant and said we were free to go downstairs once the DJ started a couple of hours later. The staff are so, so friendly and honestly couldn’t do enough for us. The bottomless is well worth the money- I actually felt guilty because it was such good value for money- it felt like I was robbing the place! The food was delicious and we were so full by the end that we couldn’t even think about desert. The drinks were flowing- we opted for Prosecco and they were more than generous. We’ll definitely be back. Amazing restaurant and I couldn’t recommend it enough!

Living in London, you're spoilt for choice on poor quality food. However, one thing for certain is that there aren't many places like GEM RESTAURANT. The food is outstanding, tasty, and succulent and leaves you wanting more, even though you have no space to stomach it. I have eaten from GEM RESTAURANT on a few occasions, and the food gets better every time. From fresh produce, succulent meats, and happy staff. I can honestly say this place lives up to its name. ITS IS TRULY A HIDDEN GEM, THANK YOU, #TEAM GEM, FOR BROADENING MY PALLETTE.

Return after a long time, still very good, and the service is great also. I'll be back The meat has been cooked perfectly 👌 Chicken not dry and very tender Lamb cooked just right The adana is tasty Returned once again, this time I had the lamb shank which was soft and yummmmmy. Even the boss man remembers me.

Excellent - food always delicious, with large portions. Two suggestions: One: please add NO SAUCE to the modifiers on your Just Eat menu - I don't want them and sometimes they spill in the bag. Two: please change your packaging - there is almost always a spillage in every delivery from your restaurant. Don't just tie the top of the plastic bag (the boxes move around and spill during delivery). Wrap the bag around its contents and tape it closed, like Pret do.

I recently had the unfortunate experience of dining at Gem, a Greek restaurant that turned out to be the worst I've ever visited. From the moment we walked in, it was clear this establishment had serious issues. Firstly, the service was abysmal. Our waiter casually mentioned that most of their products were frozen, which was incredibly disappointing. Greek cuisine is renowned for its fresh ingredients, so to hear that everything was prepackaged and frozen was a major letdown. To make matters worse, the owner was too busy harassing the waitresses to address our complaints. It was evident that the staff were uncomfortable and unhappy, which only added to the unpleasant atmosphere. Moreover, I was appalled to learn that the owner keeps the tips and the service charges for himself. This unethical practice not only demoralizes the hardworking staff but also leaves a sour taste in the mouths of patrons who believe they are rewarding good service. Overall, I would strongly advise against visiting Gem. The combination of poor food quality, terrible service, and unethical management practices make it a place to avoid at all costs.

Never, ever go on a match day! I’ve just left, at 7.20, having arrived before 6pm, ordered just after 6 and eaten NO FOOD. The kitchen was completely overwhelmed and - as the abrupt manager proudly pointed out, other people had also had to leave with no food at all. It’s just exploitative to take more bookings than you can serve. Only the second time I’ve ever been to a restaurant where there was no food served to our table. It’s really rare. Most restaurateurs are better at their jobs (or not so greedy) That Gem is so badly managed is a shame: Gem by name but certainly not by performance or experience. Anyhow, I’m starving and will have to buy some halloumi on the way home… NOT how I expected the evening to turn out.

Best Turkish/Greek experience ever! We wanted to try a bit of everything, so we went for the cold and hot meze and left us without words. The meze includes bread as well and they have the best Tzatziki and Tabule I've had in London. Regarding warm meze the Kofte, Calamari, Borek and prawns (Karides) was another level. Superb food quality, taste and presentation. Service was outstanding: friendly, professional and amazing recommendations. I would share some pictures but by the time we realized we finished everything :P Sincerely 10/10, truly recommended.

A local restaurant to my office. We ordered 4 small meze between the two of us. They arrived with a basket full of warm pitta bread slices. The portions are very generous, so much so that we could barely finish it all, but we tried. The food was well seasoned, fresh and definitely worth the price. We found it better to order the small plates than pay for one large plate of food. Will be back later this week, though this time we do have a Groupon voucher for 8 meze!

Not the restaurants fault but DO NOT MAKEA BOOKING THROUGH GROUPON. They are advertising this offer even though you can't make a booking. Gem say the issue is with the Groupon booking system whilst Groupon say the issue is that Gem only have limited availability. Despite receiving a full refund, Groupon are still advertising this deal but you can't make a reservation. Its wrong. Don't get tempted by the deal otherwise you will be conned.

Visited this month, prebooked table for 7. We explained that we only had an hour and a half and could we order quickly. They took 20 mins to take the order which took 45 mins to be served. We had finished our drinks before service. Sadly we had to bolt down our food and I had to leave most of mine, so we could make a nearby concert venue on time. So sad because the food was lovely and service exceptionally poor. Restaurants to compete these days need to get both front of house and back functioning together. 'We are short staffed' was a poor excuse when the table had been booked for weeks.

Used to be much better, a more traditional Kurdish cuisine which is very unique to see anywhere in the world. Used to have an old lady that was baking fresh bread in the window that you got for free as soon as you sat down, which made the place so genuine. Today its more modern random cuisine and it doesn't feel like a special place at all... very sad that one of my absolute favourite restaurant in the world became like this... Still decent though but from a place I used to visit once a week I will probably never go back again unless the owners make a huge change back to what it was.

I love this place and have had many great lunches and work events here. Last week myself and a friend went for lunch. We ordered off the express menu.The starters were awful Borax deep brown and dripping in oil. We mentioned this to the server who admitted they looked like they had been left in the fryer too long. The mains were great with a huge amount of food. At 3pm the server informed us that he was closing and that he was giving us 10 minutes to finish. We had half a bottle of wine left and planned to stay longer for coffees. We said that we had no idea of the closing times that were not displayed on the Web site or in the restaurant itself. We rushed and had to leave the rest of our meal. A very disappointing experience this time. Not the usual good standard from Gems.

I am a local living in Finsbury Park & I been eating in the restaurant for many years & I love the food because its home cooked with best quality produce . This restaurant has a big local following especially on match days when Arsenal are playing at home !!! Uncle Bulgaria aka George knows how to produce top quality food at a reasonable price hence the reason us locals keep returning !!! The homemade goulash is the best you will find anywhere this side of Budapest!!! The quality of the meat has to be noted as you will not find a better sirloin steak in London town for the price & the home cut chips are cooked to perfection!!! I love the place as it has a friendly atmosphere & good food !!!!

Visited with friends on a busy Sunday lunch time. This was my 3rd visit to this pub over many years, and it has been good each time. My friends had roast beef, and I had the vegetarian roast. We shared some puddings too. The staff were very accommodating about making things gluten free, and there are vegan options. The food, service and atmosphere were all good. The staff regularly came around and replaced the water jugs. My only complaint was that they added things to the bill, such as extra gravy we’d asked for as the food wasn’t very hot, and a bottle of sparkling water they’d put on the table without us asking for it, and we couldn’t drink it because they’d asked us to vacate the table. In fairness, they took these items off the bill when we queried them without any hassle. Overall, recommended :)

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.
