Found this place whilst out with our little one. The food was beautifully presented, it tasted delicious and was fresh, loved the shwarma wrapped in bread and salad and the lamb shish was so soft and tender. The flat bread was also really nice, it was made fresh, my little one enjoyed watching them make the bread 😊. We ordered the House Special with fried wings and chips as extra, the wings were delicious love the flavour of the batter. It was definitely enough for 3 people. We really enjoyed the food will definitely come again. 🙂 Staff were very warm & welcoming and accommodating.

We had a great Experience at Everest , the food was amazing ,hot and delicious. It was served in a beautiful way and we did have to wait long for it to get served. Staff are friendly and helpful with a smile on their faces. Prices were very reasonable in comparison with the presentation and amazing taste. I highly recommend this restaurant, one of the best Syrian Cuisine restaurants I have ever been to.

Great to have a new restaurant in Holloway! Afrikana has a trendy vibe and the chicken with Afrikana sauce is super tender and delicious. Loved the okra fries too. Have been back already!

A few months ago, I saw the signboard of this restaurant and eagerly waited for it to open since I had never tried African food before! Today, I finally had the chance to visit, and it was definitely worth the wait! The inside of the restaurant is clean and beautifully decorated, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and recommended a delicious mocktail, which was a great start to the meal. For food, I had fried okra, which was served with a tasty sauce and was so crispy that I couldn’t stop eating! I also tried the salmon with rice, which was incredibly flavorful. Overall, everything was absolutely delicious, and I will definitely be coming back:)

Fun place with a great menu of crowd pleasing dishes. We got a half chicken, macaroni cheese with pulled beef and a bunny chow (bread loaf stuffed with mutton curry). The macaroni cheese was delicious and generous with the beef and cheese. The chicken was also really good, but the star was the bunny chow. This was an entire loaf of bread hollowed out and filled with a delicious mutton and potato curry. The curry had a great flavour and a nice amount of heat and was loaded with big chunks of mutton and potato. The bread was grilled on the outside which added some extra texture and a great smoky flavour to the dish. Service was very friendly and attentive too, as a new restaurant they seem very keen to make sure they're getting everything right.

My family and I went in to the newly opened Afrikana last night for dinner and it didn’t disappoint! Service and food were on point and the hospitality was outstanding. My husband and son enjoyed every part of the meal but the mojitos and lamb chops were exceptional. I highly recommend a visit!

Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for great food and top-notch service!

What a Fabulous addition to Holloway Road, which has been losing its shops and curb appeal. The food is delious and the portions are generous which makes the pricing make sense. Have visited a few times and hope to visit more and to see more variety on the menu as time passes. Delicious, tasty food!!!! Highly Recommend and the staff are inviting and helpful. Ps: toilets are clean ....massive win!

That's a very stylish place with great food, drinks, atmosphere, and staff. The entourage is modern with a unique touch, the food menu is fairly standard in terms of choice, but the burger I had was unlike any other. It was, for a lack of a better word, silky, full of flavour and quite big too. I'll definitely return and will have another enjoyable experience.

Very authentic and amazing Vietnamese food here. The Bun Cha was super tasty—the grilled pork was so tender, and it brought me back to Hanoi by its taste. The Papaya Salad had a nice herbal kick to it, really fresh and light. The staff were really friendly, which made the whole experience even better!

Food is fabulous, I got the lemongrass tofu and a side of rice noodles. Great portion and full of flavour too. Also they have their own homemade hot sauce, in bottles on tables, which is spicy but very nice. Service was very quick, on what is a very busy night. The atmosphere is bubbly and exciting, it’s busy and if you can get a table I fully recommend this place.

One of the querkiest restaurants I've ever been. Indeed very small and compact, makes use of its limited espace with a double-deck type of seating. Genious! A very cosy feel, with separate compartments. The chunky light wood used throughout, on a scaffolding frame, and white ceilings keep it light. But it is the food and service that will make me come back. Calamari as starter, seafood lasagna as main and homemade tiramisu as desert. All quality ingredients, well cooked and presented. I'm not a fan of pasta but that lasagna was truly delicious. If you like fishy taste, the flavours and textures were really good. I have since been back and we had lasagna bolognese, seafood linguine and 2 pizzas. Again the food was delicious. They also have a good selection of Italian wines. The only minus is that when very busy it can get quite warm and perhaps a tad stuffy on the upper level. I just took off my jumper and I was fine. Just take it as part of the experience. In brief, an interesting restaurant, worth visiting. Querky, certainly different, the food is great and the service excellent. Daniele was superb! Highly recommended. Just make sure you book in advance. First time I went on a Wednesday and was packed, even with a table booked I had to wait!

Owned by the most hospitable chef! The portions sizes are the best and this branch of Shah’s has the best chicken - in my opinion.

This place is amazing - it’s no wonder they’ve expanded so quickly across London. The (owner?) had a shahs tattoo on his neck and his passion really made us excited to eat here. He even gave us two drinks for free! One of the best spots for “New York halal” plates easily.

The food was very good (tasty and healthy) and the service was very friendly. Overall, it was a good meal, and I recommend it. I went with my 5 year old daughter and she very much enjoyed the meal as well.

As a fast food restaurant, Luckys is good enough. I find its menu more inspiring and healthier than other fast food chains. They also do a lot of sugary desserts, which might not be on the healthy side, but are very tempting and tasty. Prices are fair. The atmosphere of the place isn't all that, but, again, this is what you can expect for a fast food venue. I had a pleasent enough experience there.

Rating: 4.5 (498) Price Level:

I visited El Rincon for an early lunch before an Arsenal Women's match. I opted for their 'hornado' meal, which features roasted pork served with salad and chips. The portion size was quite generous for the price, and everything was flavorful and satisfying. I couldn't finish the meal, only because my appetite didn't match the portion size on the day, but I left very content, especially since I discovered the restaurant by chance while looking for a quick bite before the game. Overall, I have no complaints, and I'm very likely to visit again before another match!

We went to el Rincón for dinner and were very kindly treated by the owner José. Ordered one of the share starters and a main dish each and we couldn't eat another bite afterwards, a great amount of excellent food for a very good price. The starter had chorizo and croquetas that tasted as good as the ones back in Spain. I hear that it is also a popular place to watch football matches on a massive projected screen. Fully recommend the place for the food and the locale.

This is one of my favourites in north London. The service is great, the owners are very friendly and accommodating, and the food tastes great. The menu is a mix of South American, Italian and Greek but it works very well. We went when there was a large group of Colombians celebrating a birthday but they fitted us in without fuss and we had a great meal again. If you’re in north London head to El Rincon.

Don't overlook this fab restaurant serving delicious and authentic Ecuadorian food. Jose gives the best service. Everything we had was delicious but the prawn ceviche was so so good, as well as the steak - perfectly cooked! Very friendly and attentive service from a seasoned pro. And lots of diners from Ecuador and Bolivia so you know it's good! Brill value for money too.
