The best restaurants in Islington London

We visited Bar Rioja on a Saturday evening. The venue itself is lovely, small cosy and intimate. The young lady serving us was great, very friendly and and had good knowledge of the wines. Unfortunately the food was a complete disappointment. We ordered 5/6 different tapas dishes. The croquettes were cold, the pork dish had a hard stone in it which could have been either an olive stone or a peice of bone, I was lucky to not chip a tooth on it. All of the food was under seasoned, bland and luke warm at best. We ate it anyway, as we wanted to stay at the venue to try the extensive wine list. We stayed and tried 7/8 different wines which were all nice, but didn't make up for the poor food. All of the food was added to the bill, dispite us flagging the cold food / bone in the pork being flagged to the staff.

Very friendly cafe, almost next to King's Cross Station. Went to stoke up before a long train journey and had a large full English, with much better quality bacon and sausage than usual in these kind of cafes, great coffee and excellent freshly squeezed orange juice. Total cost £11.45 - excellent!

The menu said £5.50 but the bill was £7.50 per pie. The mash was cold and the pie tasteless.A service charge was added on.The horrible american waitress then said this is all our fault.We will not be comming back to this horrible place with the cold and tasteless food.Stay away as it is a horrible place

We put on an event for a London-based client and found the Coin Laundry to be a very amenable venue with staff who went the whole hog to ensure things went well. Eli was the main man on the day, bringing South American flare by the bucketload. There was also a tall chap who helped with the AV which had a few glitches - his calmness was a big help The best part of it all was the food, all of the sharing plates were loaded and contained some amazing nibbles we had about 60 guests, a golf simulator and we were very snug.

Amazing and authentic food. We got the share platter for two and was more than enough. The place felt authentic and the service was genuine and caring. A local gem

staff were very friendly and helpful placed the order and well served at the table with loads of condiments available the tables are well spaced and able to accommodate a wheelchair very enjoyable snack & the ability to rest enjoying thanks staff & management.

Really nice katsu curry for a good price

Great Experience, will definitely come back and enjoy the place. Looking forward to coming back with my friends.

La comida deliciosa, los precios muy buenos y un ambiente agradable ❤️ sin duda volveríamos a repetir con mi familia una comida muy deliciosa

Wonderful as ever. A wonderful find for that different dining out experience. Friendly welcome, coupled with a lovely lamb shank. Chocolate Mousse a must for a naughty end to the night. Will be back for another dinner when the opportunity arises.

This is a very good family-owned restaurant offering delicious traditional Chinese cuisine. The highlight of the menu is the house specialty fried rice, which is exceptional. While the ambiance could be improved, particularly in terms of table arrangement and storage, the quality of the food more than makes up for it. The prices are reasonable and well worth the quality of the meals served. It’s a great spot for a quick bite if you’re looking for good food.

Good prices & great service ! Such a lovely place for drinks for a night out with friends or family would recommend.

Du jamais vu, une restauration de très mauvaise qualité, un chef qui se prend pour ce qu´il n´est pas.. La raclette de très mauvaise qualité, une charcuterie très moyenne.. Je vous deconseille completement.

Delicious tapas, nice wine et great atmosphere. For sure, that's not fine food but the products are good and the cooker is talented. Whatever, I love thise place!

Great traditional and modern selections. Very helpful and courteous staff. And of course the LOCATION: right across the street from Arsenal!!!
