The best restaurants serving Other european-cuisines food in Highbury East Islington London

The food was unique, tasty and very well presented but this is a sharing plates restaurant therefore the plates need to be of sufficient size to actually share and in quite a few cases they really aren’t. Shockingly so. We were all hungry after the recommended number of plates and ended up consuming more bread as a result. The ‘cheese’ was a teeny, tiny slice of goats cheese for £8. We genuinely queried if that was it - the waitress acknowledged it was and apologised. The gnocchi was lovely, as were the cod, the leeks and fig dishes. The desserts were all very nice. Very few of the more common drinks are available, the wine is very expensive and the non-alcoholic options are unusual but not necessarily in a good way. One drink smelt like leachate from my compost bin. It depends what you’re looking for but I probably wouldn’t go back. Overall pleasant but not particularly satisfying and overpriced.
