Best Middle Eastern Restaurants in Islington

This restaurant is a hidden gem that I can’t wait to return to. The atmosphere is cozy and the service is great. I loved the risotto and the pork…great selection of desserts too. I could see attention to detail in every dish! Highly recommend.

Great meal Went with my partner as we were staying at the Royal Oak pub and fancied a nice dinner out Food was some of the nicest in this side of London I’ve had, fresh and super tasty great portion sizes too The staff were very friendly and helpful no request would be too much Will definitely be visiting again soon when we next visit family

Penelope’s Unforgettable experience! The ambiance was lively and inviting. Fantastic live DJ who set the perfect mood for the evening. The food was very impressive, with each dish bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The staffs were friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed, specially Raju !!! Whether you’re looking for a casual dinner or a vibrant night out, Penelope’s is definitely worth a visit!

My favourite restaurant in London! Always amazing food and great service. The people who work here are the kindest and so helpful ☺️

Lovely local restaurant with a great atmosphere. We have eaten here twice in the last couple of weeks, as it’s our go-to place to bring visitors, and the food never disappoints. There’s a good variety of starters, all of which seemed to be prepared fresh. Had a delicious smoky aubergine dish and lamb skewers on this visit, along with some salads. Highly recommended.
