Restaurant Reviews

422 St John St, London EC1V 4NJ

Owner Mr Pham trained up at Suntory and Miyami before opening his own sushi counter spot by Angel. For more than a decade they’ve been building up a fiercely loyal Islington clientele, and have recently had a very modernist makeover.

301 Upper St, London N1 2TU

This Chinese restaurant on Upper Street not only serves up top drawer dim sum, but stands out for its halal menu, which means there’s no pork on the menu. Standout dishes include the chef’s own creation - mango golden floss prawn.

1 Bedale St, London SE1 9AL

After success in Soho, this is the second Berenjak in London, once again focused on Persian-style cuisine. As before, the charcoal-grilled kababs are a big draw and this location adds bigger family-style dishes to the menu.

43 Borough Market, London SE1 9AH

Turnips greengrocer has been a Borough Market institution for over 30 years. In 2020 they decided to open an evening supper club by chef Tomas Lidakevicius in the space. It became so popular that it's now a permanent affair. Expect hyper seasonal food - a lot will come from the grocer themselves - in a tasting menu or small plates experience.
