Islington, Turkish Restaurant Guide

“This old Upper Street favourite” (no longer with a nearby offshoot) wins high marks for its “well-grilled Turkish food” and “just brilliant, warm service”. Jolly décor, with lots of “quiet corners”, suits it to a variety of meals: from a budget celebration to lunch with the fam.

“The name sums it up!” say fans of this busy spot near Angel serving “great Turkish grills with handmade relishes and sides” alongside “excellent” Greek and Kurdish dishes. Its ‘Hidden Gem’ basement can be booked for private parties.

This “excellent local” Turkish restaurant just off Islington’s main drag offers a classic and extensive menu of “good food at a very reasonable price”, served up in a “buzzy and friendly setting”.
