I came in late and Daniella managed to find space for me. Delicious oysters, perfectly cooked fish and Shiana (apologies, I'm sure that's not the correct spelling) provided fantastic chat and service. Will definitely be returning. Thanks to the whole team!

ASIENTOS: al pasar a almorzar hoy con mi novia y nuestra hija de 3 meses en un buggy, nos hicieron sentir un poco molestos cuando nos dijeron (bastante dramáticamente) que solo había una mesa adecuada para que nos sentamos, independientemente de que hubiera nadie más en el restaurante. Después de un ligero movimiento innecesario de la mesa que nos fue designada, nos sentamos. Cambié brevemente al mismo lado de la mesa que mi novia, para ayudar a ordenar el bebé / cochecito y la aplicación de seguimiento y rastreo que nos dijeron que descargáramos, luego, rápida y dramáticamente, me dijeron que no debía moverme de mi lado de la mesa debido a COVID, todos sin un alma en el restaurante.VENTA MÁS - Independientemente de este comienzo incómodo, nos sentamos y nos dieron la opción de sin gas o con gas y el camarero pareció sorprendido cuando pedimos grifo. Luego escuchamos lo que resultó ser una explicación robótica del menú por parte del camarero, que incluía un desglose de cuántos artículos deberíamos pedir. Si optamos por comer platos pequeños (no las otras opciones muy caras), nos dijeron que teníamos al menos 6 y 4 lados para acompañarlos. Obviamente, esto parecía excesivo, por lo que optamos por tres de cada uno, que resultó ser suficiente para los dos. Más tarde escuchamos a una camarera aconsejar a un cliente que obtuviera entre 4 - 6 platos y 2 - 4 lados, lo que parecía más acertado.COMIDA / BEBIDA: una lager es una lata del tamaño de una Coca-Cola y cuesta casi 6. Aparte de eso, nos sorprende encontrar que el langostino exclusivo en el plato de césped era básicamente aguacate aplastado sobre una tostada con langostinos. Encantador pero muy decepcionante y poco imaginativo, al igual que el atún y las "patatas picantes". Que tenía un poco de chile y cebolla tierna espolvoreada y no mucho más. El orden en que salió la comida tampoco fue muy bueno, ofreciendo las gambas y el atún rápidamente y las guarniciones (pan con mantequilla, lechuga y patatas) un poco más tarde, casi para animar a un pedido adicional.PRESIÓN DE CARGO DE SERVICIO - Terminamos lo que era una comida cara pero decente y pedimos la factura. Luego, el camarero nos habló de una donación de caridad que estuvo bien. Luego hizo un punto muy obvio al decir que el cargo por servicio no estaba incluido y cuando obtuvimos la máquina de tarjetas, esperó mirándonos para decirle cuánto queríamos pagar, lo cual fue muy incómodo y supuesto. Dejamos una propina y lo habríamos hecho de todos modos, pero no queríamos sentir que teníamos que hacerlo.Además, la mercancía claramente de precio y bastante chillona de estilo "East London" pegada en la pared, parecía tanto un intento de sacar más dinero de los clientes como un gran salto desde el menú muy caro.No volveré de nuevo, me temo. No fue una experiencia agradable.

Esta es una joya de restaurante. Gran servicio y platos pequeños deliciosos y bien presentados. Teníamos gambas, atún braseado, satay de rape, salmonetes, ensalada de tomate, caballa, patatas picantes y pan de masa madre. Disfruté mucho sentado en el mostrador viendo a los dos chefs trabajar en la pequeña cocina. Probé una copa de rosa espumoso de Padstow que fue agradable. Me encantaría volver. Mis únicos consejos para mejorar serían (1) margarita un poco aguada y débil - ¡la proporción de hielo a bebida no es la correcta! (2) el restaurante podría ser más cálido. A las damas les gusta usar blusas de noche. . . . Tuve que dejar mi abrigo puesto toda la noche.

Fui a una cena largamente esperada en POTL Islington el viernes por la noche. Mi novia había estado entusiasmada con eso y decidió llevarme.Todo iba bien al principio. Decoración, comprobar. Bebidas, cheque. Servicio, acogedor y atento.Sin embargo, POTL se queda muy corto en el tamaño de las porciones. Trabajo en la industria hotelera y entiendo muy bien el concepto de "compartir platos", pero eran demasiado pequeños y prácticamente imposibles de compartir. La mesa de al lado también compartió este sentimiento, lo que demuestra que el sentimiento era mutuo.Lamentablemente, no volveré a POTL simplemente por esta razón. Ofrezca tamaños de porciones que reflejen el precio, ¡y nosotros (y supongo que otros) regresaríamos!

Fuimos a este restaurante a almorzar y reservamos con anticipación, cuando llegamos allí, mi novio y yo nos sentamos en una mesa pequeña frente a la puerta de entrada, no estaba muy contento con los asientos, así que mi novio preguntó si podíamos sentarnos en otro lugar. Teniendo en cuenta que no había nadie en el restaurante, el camarero nos dijo que todo estaba reservado y que no podíamos sentarnos en ningún otro lugar. Teníamos nuestros cascos y preguntamos si podíamos colocarlos en cualquier lugar ya que la mesa era tan pequeña que no podíamos ponerlos cerca de nosotros, simplemente dijeron que los pusiéramos en el borde lateral. No quería poner el mío en el suelo, así que puse el mío en el tipo de asiento de la barra detrás de mí y dije que estaría feliz de moverlo si alguien llega y quiere sentarse allí, no estaba en el camino de nadie, el Sin embargo, otra camarera insistió en que alguien podría estar usando esta silla exacta para trabajar, así que le pedí a algunos que pusieran mi casco en el piso. Supuse que estaban muy ocupados según el comentario de los camareros sobre estar completamente lleno, así que acepté cortésmente. . . . aunque este asiento no se usó en la hora y media que estuvimos allí.Estuvimos allí durante 30 minutos comiendo nuestra comida y otra pareja probablemente de clase media bien vestida entró (no había reservado una mesa) y nos dieron todas las mesas en el restaurante como una opción para elegir. . . . aunque hace 30 minutos nos dijeron que el restaurante estaba lleno.Cuando notamos que esto obviamente afectó nuestra experiencia, nos sentimos discriminados, fue porque venimos en moto y yo vestía ropa de gimnasia y no tenía maquillaje o porque somos una pareja interracial. . . nos trataron como si no estuviéramos al mismo nivel que sus otros clientes. . . y para colmo a la hora de jugar la cuenta, el camarero nos dijo que su servicio no está incluido en la factura y se quedó ahí con la máquina de tarjetas sin teclear la factura pero esperando que le dijéramos cuánta propina le daríamos gusta darle. . . . normalmente siempre dejo una propina. . . siempre. . . esta vez, sin embargo, estaba tan molesto por la forma en que nos trataron y discriminaron que solo quería irme. Nunca pondría un pie en este lugar y la comida. . . Honestamente, está bien por el precio, supongo. . . la experiencia. . . horrible. Si solo quieres tener un buen almuerzo después de un paseo por el parque y no tienes tu mejor atuendo (aunque el lugar no es tan bueno en cuanto a interiores) no te molestes, hay muchos cafés lindos en la misma calle . :) ¡Todavía estoy molesto por este almuerzo que sucedió ayer! Increíble cómo esta experiencia todavía me impacta. No entiendo por qué la gente es tan crítica y grosera.

A los dos nos encantan los mariscos y queríamos ir a un lugar en el que no habíamos estado antes. Habiendo llevado recientemente a mi esposa a las ostras, quería un restaurante que no solo sirviera ostras, sino también cangrejo, langosta, mejillones, vieiras, etc. Miré algunos en el área de Londres, pero también estaba buscando algo más informal que el sofocante restaurantes de lujo en Mayfair. Prawn on the Lawn me llamó la atención inicialmente cuando leí que también tenían un restaurante en Padstow Cornwall y que es un área bien conocida para mariscos y pescados frescos. Lo reservé para 8. 15 pm y me dijeron que solo podíamos tener 2 x asientos en el bar, si soy sincero, después de haberme sentado allí, prefiero sentarme y ver cómo la cocina abierta prepara los deliciosos platos que sentarme en una mesa para dos. Nuestro camarero Shania (Sha - Ny - Ya) fue informativo y amable y explicó los platos y los diferentes tipos de ostras que se ofrecen. Para empezar, teníamos una selección de ostras de Carlingford y Maldon que eran excelentes, langostinos en el césped (tostadas de masa fermentada, aguacate y gambas), seguido de nuestro plato principal de Fruit de Mare, que era una gran fuente de cangrejo de Dorset, gambas y mejillones. , Berberechos, navajas, vieiras, etc. El personal era muy amable, la comida excelente y yo sin duda volveremos. Recomiendo encarecidamente este discreto restaurante informal de mariscos.

Estaba tan feliz de estar de regreso en mi restaurante favorito en Islington. Se suponía que debía estar de vacaciones y me sentía triste y el estilo chino de John Dory era la solución perfecta. No estaba en el menú como ahora lo hacen para compartir platos en lugar de pescado del mostrador los domingos. John Dory era enorme, por lo que necesitaban filetearlo. ¡No hay problema! Este lugar no podría ser más agradable, acogedor y delicioso.

Realmente no he probado mariscos tan buenos en Londres. Siempre. ¡Toda la comida era fantástica y llena de sabor y totalmente fresca! Los langostinos schezuan eran uno de los favoritos y aterrizamos comiéndolos como entrante y postre. Buena decisión.También; nuestro camarero Rob fue probablemente una de las personas más excitadas que conocí. Estaba tan entusiasmado con toda la comida en el menú e hizo excelentes sugerencias y cambios en nuestro pedido. Realmente hizo que toda la experiencia fuera aún mejor. ¡Volvería sin duda alguna!

Our third trek across London to eat at POTL Islington and worth every ounce of effort.As usual, we tried almost all the starter plates and then just had one main course to share amongst four. Every dish was, for the want of a better word, thrilling.Some staples, like the seared tuna, was as fab as ever; others (sechuan prawns) absolutely lovely. Service truly outstanding: efficient, professional, yet friendly.Some consolation for the poor souls of Islington that they have such a wonderful restaurant in their borough.

A friend randomly contacted me on Sunday morning hoping to simply catch up. I was expecting something cheap or cheerful but she recommended this, a restaurant which had been on both for bucket lists for the past year. Well worth the wait. We went all out and got the Fruits de Mer (£80) a sides of soda bread and bottle of wine. Can easily see how the prices can add up. Some bottles of wine cost £90. We didn’t finish but it’s a decadent meal for 2.I recommend, will be back.

We were in London for a day on business, and we just fancied fish for an afternoon treat.We went here merely on Tripadvisor's good reviews, and It is every bit as good as the reviews say!It isn't a big restaurant, and customers can walk in and order off the fish counter, and cook it at home, as well as the tables to sit and have a lovely meal.It has a very homely feel and the food is really really fresh, interesting and tasty.There's not one whiff of a fish smell, which shows you how fresh it all is.Fantastic wine list. Small plates is an option, which is ideal, as we wanted to try so many of the dishes.We had Scallops (thai style), Seared Tuna, oysters (raw and fried), Crab with sesame, Prawns on the Lawn, Dory (classic style), salad with truffle oil and grana padano, ...! (these are just abbreviated descriptions!!) all in all, a very enjoyable and afternoon. It is nice that is open from 12pm, till late, so we didn't feel rushed as we sometimes do, when places are only open for lunch.Would definitely return

My first visit and what a treat. Outstandingly fresh fish with best oysters I've had for a while. 'Tapas-style' sharing is brilliant and allows to sample a range of imaginative and very tasty dishes. Much better than the standard starter/main course. The Pollock and Mackerel were particularly enjoyable. Some interesting and very enjoyable combinations of flavours including some Asian-style. None disappointed.

No thankfully not a description of Boris Johnson sunbathing Prawn on the Lawn is a sophisticated seafood cafe with two branches one in Highbury, London and the other in Padstow. Chalked upon two blackboards is a list of essentially tapas sized dishes (two and a side ought to be sufficient for the single diner I was told) then whole fishes to share priced by weight more for group sharing in the evening. And a £30 fish soup. I opted for monkfish kebab with lime and a peanut sauce then ray (skate) wing in a green sauce. Both quite superb. But perhaps best of all was a side of crushed spiced potatoes a crunchy and piquant sort of heaven. It seemed churlish not to try a dessert and a panda cotta with raspberries on a caramel base didn’t disappoint. Meanwhile a middle aged gent at an adjoining table dropped his dessert menu then spilt a glass of cider all over his partner. This was all mopped up by waiting staff with delicacy and tact. Perhaps the gent had been shocked by a vision of Boris Johnson sunbathing?

Obviously we had the prawn on the lawn, which was not a disappointment. Every dish was incredible but the hake and truffle was absolutely to die for.

I have wanted to try this place for a long time now. I have always been impressed with the seafood display in the window, and figured that the fact it is always busy must suggest something about the quality of the food. Sadly, I was wrong. I was really hoping this could finally my local seafood fix. It will not be. The seared Tuna was not fresh. It arrived chilled, and lacked any form of flavour. The pollock lacked anything remotely resembling taste.

We hadn't meant to go here for lunch, honestly; we'd been looking for another place that apparently only serves dinner, but we thought, there's an open table, there's great looking seafood in the window. This was an amazing experience! We shared a series of small plates from seared tuna, to vibrant green-sauced marinated scallops, to sashimi then cod. The spicy potatoes will need two servings next time since they're so good and they sop up the sauces well. The soda bread was sliced to the perfect thickness as well. I had to enjoy the panna cotta afterwards, because panna cotta. Apparently prawn on the lawn refers to an actual dish that is served as a small plate, but we didn't get a chance to try that one. I'd love to next time.

So glad we chose this place to have a late lunch before heading out in the evening.

Tan fresco como que tienen un mostrador de pescadería con las cosas del día para elegir en el restaurante o para llevártelo a casa. El menú es a base de raciones pequeñas bastante originales, que van adaptando según se acaba el pescado. Todo lo que pedimos nos gustó bastante, por destacar alguno yo diría las gambas Sichuan, trucha estilo peruano, o el lenguado.

Had been to the padstow location and had to try the London one I was not disappointed. We had their private room which was perfect for a large group of people like us ( we can get a bit loud) Staff and service great food like the padstow location was excellent although they had no lobster but the other choices were just as good

Amazing! If you love amazing fresh seafood this is the place! With a lovely little Thai influence. Their potatoes are amazing! By far the best potatoes I’ve ever had definitely worth getting two orders! I also use them as my fish monger, they have so much good produce.

We had a lovely meal of tapas-style treats and very much enjoyed this adaptable style of eating. Staff were 5* brilliant in answering questions and dealing with dietary requirements. Will definitely be returning if we are in the area as there were so many tempting options still left to try. Nice atmosphere in a cosy space.

Perfect seafood gem in Islington that ticks all my boxes. Small but not cramped, superb menu and very helpful staff. We sat at the bar overlooking the chefs and it was fun and a great way to enjoy the evening.

Staff were very friendly, oysters were very nice and fresh hut only two varieties to choose from. The spiced potatoes were oversalty and not very spicy. We had to send one dish back as it tasted of bitter olive oil and ruined the whole dish. To be fair, they did change it for us for the same dish without the oil. I wish the restaurant was a bit bigger. There is really not a lot of space between tables to squeeze through. We really wanted to like this one after all the reviews read but it was just OK.

Although I have been a regular visitor, for various reasons this was my first visit to the new London premises. The new place is bigger, more accessible but perhaps has lost the fishmonger with tables feel. It is now a restaurant that will sell fresh seafood. I was eating with my brother. As i was early I sneaked the house bloody mary. Very nice, very lively. The food menu is on blackboards. It i served as small sharing portions. We went through seared tuna, king prawns, crab, sardines, scallops, the signature "prawn on the lawn", mussels & clams all washed down with the house grollo gris white wine. No ceviche on the menu this time - which was a shame as it has always been excellent. The service was attentive and professional. There were two negatives: the tables are too close together and it is expensive for hat you get, but I will be making my next visit soon.

First visit to this place and we were all really impressed with the food. You order a number of different plates like you would with tapas, they had sold out of the King Prawns and did forget our drinks order, to which we ended up eating half of our meal before the drinks came out - hence the 4/5 stars.

For a long while Prawn on the Lawn had the highest rating of any London restaurant on TripAdvisor. And rightly so. I was keen patron of PotL in its former edgy kitchen-less jaunt round the corner and sung its praises to everyone that would listen.

To be fair to PotL, the food was well cooked and presented, but the small plates “concept” does wear a bit thin in London.

Como un canadiense y un pescatarian que sé de marisco. No había un plato que nos decepcionó y era difícil encontrar un puesto de favorito. El tamaño de las porciones eran más que suficiente para nuestro grupo de tres para compartir y trabajamos nuestro camino a través de 90% de las placas pequeñas. La decoración es sencilla y acogedora y el personal siempre dispuesto a ayudar a hacer la experiencia de comidas. Con una botella de vino y todo lo que disfrutamos de la última etiqueta de precio de 120 libras nos dejó encantados. Ya tenemos ganas de la próxima comida en Gambas en el césped!

Si bien diferente! ! ! Mi yerno y mi hija me trajo aquí para cenar hace dos semanas. Es un pequeño comedor con un toque rústico, por ejemplo el papel marrón de tela en las mesas de madera. Pero lo que le falta en detalle, diseño y fresado, la comida sin duda compensa. Peces de todo tipo era de primera clase y fresco y simpleza para sí misma, hablaba sin necesidad de "ju y lujoso salsas. el personal encantador que hizo sentido de todas las solicitudes y explicó en detalle qué era lo.

En Londres para un par de días, así que decidí probar la versión original de Londres de este restaurante genial padstow. En recibidos por Daniella este pequeño e íntimo restaurante donde el espacio es escaso. Botella de fresco fresco rose fue entregado rápidamente y nos examinamos el menú de pizarra. Elegimos 4 platos pequeños y además el estofado de mariscos, que llegó uno por uno con tiempo para apreciar en todos ellos. El plato de gambas en el césped es siempre una delicia y el guiso de pescado era excelente. Yo recomendaría este, surgió una sensación maravillosamente repleto. El servicio era excepcionalmente amable y eficiente.

I have been passing this place for ages and finally decided to book it for a catch up with a friend. The restaurant was small and tables quite close together. I arrived early and was seated. Then two minutes after a couple was seated on the table next to me even though there were quite a few tables around. This was a little awkward when most of the space is still empty but is fine when all the tables are filled. The waitress was really nice and explained the menu to us. Ordered drinks and a few bits. Lovely yummy food. Great tapas style small dishes to share. The crab was nice too although I had no idea how to crack it so the guys there helped, which was very nice of them. Had space for dessert. All in all would definitely come back and recommend

Dernière soirée londonienne dans un restaurant poissonnerie, cuisine anglaise en formule tapas. On s’est régalé, la note est néanmoins très salée. Poissons et fruits de mer préparés tous différemment. Nous étions 3 et avons pris toute la carte. C est juste suffisant pour sortir rassasié. La salle est petite, il faut réserver je pense. Arrivés pour le dernier service, la salle se vide peu à peu et nous dînons sans trop de bruit. La serveuse qui s’est occupée de nous est punchy et sympathique.

Terminamos con el ruibarbo y olla salados caramelo! Teníamos dos cervezas y una copa de vino y pagamos 35 libras cada uno. El servicio era muy bueno, pero un poco lento ya que estaba bastante concurrida. Sin duda volveré!

Fue una cosa de última hora, cuando fuimos a este restaurante, y fue uno de esos momentos donde descubrir algo hermoso. Cuando llegamos no había mesas libres. Podíamos ver el lugar estaba muy lleno, pero aun así nos ofrece un asiento en la barra de la cocina. Resultó ser una gran ubicación ya que podía ver todo lo que pasaba.

I've been visiting the Fellow for a few years now and it's always been a pleasure. Love the atmosphere and music selection, staff is friendly and you can always count for a quick chat or a bit of laugh. The food is great, beer selection too and Ellie's passionfruit martini was worth every penny! If you ever in King's Cross area, please do visit the Fellow. Literally 5 minutes away from the station. It's highly recommended by my Friends and myself! Next time I must book a table for Sunday roast- we heard it's top notch!
