The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Islington London

Saw it walking past, and again walking home it was meant to be, awesome. For China put in Szechuan as the lady told me. Absolutely beautiful double cooked pork belly with egg fried rice, without doubt the best Szechuan or whatever Chinese variant I have ever had. Stunning, PS I have been and ate local in Beijing and Xian.

I popped in for a takeaway. Very tasty dish but I was served cold food. I am sure they would have put this right, I was busy.

What can I say we have used theHoly for the last 30years the last year since new owners have taken over has seen a rapid decline we gave it the benefit of doubt a few times but tonight was the final time the food was awful curry sauce had a funny taste egg fried rice had no egg just uncooked rice like bullets the prawn crackers were stale none of us (3) eat it it went in the bin so we won’t be ordering again and I have had an upset stomach since eating so definitely last time for us.

Usando esta comida para llevar durante muchos años, nunca me ha decepcionado, precio razonable y calidad de comida brillante

It's a lovely and welcoming cafe. The owners seem to have focused on the tea - they have an excellent range and it's all really nice (although it's my first time trying bubble tea). I was served by someone called Angel? Angelica? I think; so sorry for not getting your name right but she's extremely welcoming and kind! Served my tea super quick and elegantly, definitely coming here again. I will definitely start visiting with friends here regularly, it's so much nicer than some of the mainstream bubble tea stores in central London.

We’ve ordered from here before and always found the food to be lovely. However on this occasion our usual dishes were hotter than usual and the chicken tasted old. Quite disappointed.

First ever trip to a vegan restaurant it was very nice not the best I've ever had but given it was vegan I didn't feel the need to lie down afterwards so that's definitely a plus. It would help if the menu was more informative - the menu still said 'beef' and 'shrimp' and things like that without explaining what it was which was a bit odd.

Really lovely Chinese! It’s a shame we had to wait 1hr 1/2

I was live-in bar/cellar man in this pub in the early 90s.Kings Cross was a dangerous area then but The Swan was a decent pub with meals for the surrounding office workers. Just on Regents Canal. Coming from Ireland I thought it was great that workers were allowed to go for a couple of pints at lunchtime. I was in my early 20s and a good time to be in London. There was a Spanish bar-restaurant in Pentonville Rd and Filthy ManNasty’s up in Amwell St and Minogue’s Liverpool St. Walking up Chapel St Market to Upper St Angel. The 90s the good old days 😀

I have to say I seriously don’t understand why this lovely take away resturant has 3.7 star rating. The best best besttttttt in the town. Ive been getting takeaways alot recently from here and the taste the portions and mostly the prices are so good for what you get, just so much quality and each time its consistent and lovely’s staff.

Food was ok but wouldn’t order again I don’t think. Too much red onion for my preference and the prawn chop suey hardly had any Beansprouts or prawns for £10.50. At £30 no free prawn crackers either was a shame. But food had a nice taste so might work for someone else

Went for a lunch. Lunch menu did not have many vcg. Choice. They asked extra to change only one option that was on lunch menu. There is service charge on top of the bill.

Special curry, the meat was so hard you could not cut, it was replaced with a chicken curry with the meat equally tough. However, the salt and pepper squid was lovely as was the pancake rolls, such a shame the people are lovely.

Gran tofu salteado. Muy fresco Chef obligatorio y servicio alegre. Porciones generosas. Buena mezcla de verduras allí y perfectamente sazonada. Arroz bien cocido. Solo 6 cada uno y rodajas de naranja de cortesía en nuestra comida para llevar. Nos sentamos en una puerta a la vuelta de la esquina y realmente disfrutamos de esta comida improvisada antes del ballet en Sadlers Wells a solo un par de cientos de años más adelante. Pide comida vegana y te acomodarán.

A nice little place to grab a bite to eat. Prices are fair and enjoyed the food. I found it clean and hygienic and will come back again when I'm around the area.
