Restaurant Reviews

2 Sir Simon Milton Sq, London SW1E 5DJ

This two-floored Victoria restaurant in inspired by southern Portugal, and the cooking is led by their signature piri-piri chicken, all fire-grilled. Those are paired with small plates like their piri-piri garlic prawns and more. There's a Portuguese wine list with a specific focus on vinho verde too.

171 Holloway Rd, London N7 8LX

This is the Holloway home for critically acclaimed Malaysian laksa specialists Sambal Shiok, headed up by Mandy Yin. The laksa is great, but so are all the other dishes. Look out for regular events there and enjoy the wine list with a focus on Riesling.

10 Berners Street, London W1T 3NP

This is the main restaurant at the London Edition and Jason Atherton is in charge of things. Expect a more upmarket affair to some of Atherton's other spots and a frankly jaw-dropping room.

117 Benwell Rd, London N7 7BW

This Holloway restaurant (it's just across the road from the Emirates stadium) has won a deserved reputation for cooking up some of the best Shang Xi-inspired street food in London. Yes, that means there's a bit of heat involved here, but their hand-pulled noodles are among the best in town. Their pork/beef "burgers" are not to be missed.
