The best restaurants in Islington London

Came here with my family and had a great experience, food was great, customer service was also great. Will be coming back again for sure

This is a very nice casual local eatery on Highbury Corner. Our last visit followed a dog walk in Highbury Fields. We shared the halloumi fries which were great and then I had the beef taco and OH had the kebab. Everything was really tasty. A handy spot that provides good value,

Amazing food and lovely place. Chicken was gorgeous, generous portions. We’ve already been twice in the last week since we discovered it!

Grabbed a coffee and snack on my way past - looked nice, The staff assured me the food item was free of nut contamination but I ended up in hospital. I couldnt comment on the coffee as I didnt get a chance to try it.

I’ve been to 89 social a few times. Last night I walked by with my gf and the vibe was too hard to ignore. Piano and sax on. Sat outside. Ended up having a bottle and a few FANTASTIC pasta dishes. The pasta tasted like it was home made by the bossman’s Italian nan. The enthusiasm when exploring the wine list, phenomenal establishment. Great place, great people. Don’t hesitate!

I always wanted to try this kind of Cuisine and today I went to this restaurant in Islington specialized in south-east food. The restaurant is small, located in a secondary street (10 minutes walking from Angel Underground station) and probably not so much advertised (There were just 2 table served, a little bit few during Christmas time). And that's a pity beacuse staff is friendly, competent and gave the right advice about what to eat. I tried the lamb shank: Perfectly slow cooked, the sauce (made by potatoes, onions, shallots and peanuts) was incredibly delicious. I think I'll back

Eating Olive Tree Restaurant was a joy! Staff are highly communicative, which we appreciated. Food was excellent, it came out piping hot, and our favorite was the mixed grill. I would definitely recommend !

Excellent food and good value and excellent service from Spanish waiter. We both had sea bass main course which was excellent....tapas dishes and paella on other tables looked very good.

Uno de mis lugares favoritos locales para ir a almorzar. Gran selección de música (a menudo descubrir cuáles son las canciones, en mi teléfono), excelente comida, personal amable y buena selección de bebidas, pasteles, etc. El café ideal realmente. Recomiendo: las tostadas celestiales de queso y marmita (hablar de ellas me dan ganas de otra) y siempre una deliciosa sopa en el menú también.

We had a lovely brunch here. The amount of bacon and sausage on my baguette was really good value for money. My mocha came with a heart on the top which was really cute!

A friend and I stumbled upon this place in search of coffee after visiting a few bookshops with our children on Blackstock road. The cakes in the window drew us in, there were brownies, cookies & carrot cake which all looked beautiful, fresh and homemade. We were welcomed in, we sat in the sunny courtyard and enjoyed delicious hot coffee & a few of the gorgeous cake choices, I’m already looking forward to returning to try the tempting lunch options. Wonderful caring service and such a relaxing atmosphere.

We had a lovely late afternoon meal. Two courses each being beautifully presented, well cooked and delicious. Lots of lovely healthy options .

On our way to an early kick off at Arsenal (stadium is very close). We normally have breakfast at the Wetherspoons, but for some inexplicable reason it was closed (on a match day morning?!). Am quite glad it was as we spotted this place just down the road, so gave it a try. Excellent full English breakfast, fresh cooked, tasty, chunky bread toast, good coffee. And a similar price to Wetherspoons, apart from no unlimited coffee refills, with lots of other choices. The lunch etc menu looked good and plentiful too. All served quickly and by friendly staff. Wetherspoons - I think you've lost our business on match days!

In 2016 I was fortunate enough to sample the culinary delights of Guillaume at his Fabulous698B supper club……fast forward 5 years and he has gone from strength strength with his supper club but has also opened a super gem of a restaurant called Gilvic in Hoxton. From the street, the restaurant is easily missed, but once you venture downstairs underneath the twinkling lights, you are greeted by this very talented chef and welcomed into his fresh, crisply decorated little oasis. To say he is passionate about the food he so beautifully presents, is an understatement, as each dish is cooked to perfection with the sauces and accompaniments cleverly matched. Guillaume was a pleasure to deal with when I made the booking for 10 of us with varying dietary requirements and a specific food allergy to take into account and he tweaked the 5 course tasting menu to suit our palettes. I simply cannot hesitate in recommending his supper-club and/or restaurant

This restaurant was such a nice discovery! The staff was super kind and the menu is so varied. I loved the lentils soup and the lamb meat ball. It’s like cooked at home meals! I need o come back to try the rest!
