“Best food I have had in a while. Order everything. Nothing disappoints. Cocktails are great. Food is amazing. Service 10/10. You can tell these guys are passionate about what they offer. Highly recommend. It was quite warm with an open kitchen so wear layers!”

I don’t care where you live in London, just pick a night and go. I’d heard about Shankeys a couple of times from people and it was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Food was to die for. Oysters were the best I’ve ever had, cauliflower prata was unbelievable. Fish was perfect and potatoes arguably best I’ve ever had too. Cocktails were fantastic, wine was beautiful. The place itself is so homely, and very obvious nods to friends and family dotted around the gaff. Service was 10/10. I was slightly skeptical by somewhere with 5/5 Google reviews but it ain’t BS! The real deal.

Beautiful little restaurant with Indian-Irish menu. The pork was amazingly tender and go really well with the spuds. The cauliflower cheese paratha was also delicious. They have really good cocktails too! They keep changing the menu so definitely coming back!

What a place! Service was fun and casual, drinks were well mixed and unpretentious and the food was all incredibly tasty and had some really interesting combinations you won’t have had before. Such an impressive place, priced in a way that didn’t feel like they were taking the mic! Great night out

“Flawless experience in food and service. Tour de force of dishes, each exploding with flavor and visual appeal. I can’t rave about the duck or the rib enough. We gleefully ate each plate and found the praise the restaurant has received well deserved. The service we experienced was warm and prompt. Recommendations received were spot on. A must-visit restaurant for sure.”

“Wow! The depth and complexity of flavour in every dish is truly impressive. Cuttlefish cooked perfectly, mutton perfectly balanced with a spicy sauce and spring onion chicken a perfect balance of tender and crunchy. The noodles filled with crispy onions and spiciness. Lovely assortment of pickled veg to accompany many of dishes with the acidity helping balance richness and heat.”

“Came here for the 2nd time in as many months the other day. It’s fantastic. The portions are massive, the food is delicious and cooked to perfection (we had the Parrilladas). It’s not cheap but it’s certainly better value than the chain steak places you find in London. It has a great friendly atmosphere and is located in a great part of Hackney.”

“A nice cozy Italian place. We had five antipasti, two pasta dishes and a tiramisu. While the tartare and omelette were very tasty, the other dishes were good but not exceptional. The service was friendly, but the prices seemed quite high. I'd rate this place a 4.2 out of 5!”

“Incredible restaurant tucked away next to the station. Very unassuming from the outside but the interior is cozy, elegant and relaxing. Dining tables and bar seating, definitely recommend the bar opposite the kitchen to watch the dishes come together. All the dishes are put together so we'll, one of the better places I have been to for a long time, constantly changing menu and brilliant service. This place is mainly a wine enthusiast place with a restaurant so the wine list is extensive, well curated but one of the most expensive ones I've seen.”

“Had a very lovely meal on Friday. The food was really tasty and well presented, service was super efficient and friendly, we kept being topped up with water without having to ask. Our waitress was very nice and she managed the entire floor on her own. the food is super fresh and creatively cooked, we had the 7 course meal with optional bread and olives and we were really stuffed by the end. Unsure why someone said the portions were tiny as it’s standard with tasting menus. Would definitely come back.”
