Islington, Vietnamese Restaurant Guide

2024 Review: “I couldn’t love it more”, say regulars of this Islington Vietnamese – “a family-run and family-oriented original, with reliable and delicious food”.

“Come hungry” if you visit this year-old kitchen on bustling Upper Street in Islington, acclaimed for its “inventive, tasty food in unusually large portions”. “The door can let the cold air in, but the food is good enough to offset all of that”. (The Observer’s Jay Rayner is also a fan: in his January 2025 review he lauded the fresh and punchy dishes – “The next morning, I will be told by my loved ones that my breath is distinctly ‘savoury’. I wear this as a badge of honour.”)
