Restaurant Reviews

1 Tolpuddle St, London N1 0XT

With an ex-Fifteen chef Nathan Collymore in the kitchen, this modern Caribbean restaurant and cocktail bar is genuinely changing the face of Jamaican-influenced vegan food in London.

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.
