Buns on fire - (Near Barnet, london)

L N Booked a table for 2 a few nights ago. Staff are very attentive. We ordered seaweed, spring rolls and prawn toast as starters, all very nice. And sweet & sour prawns, noodles with bean sprouts, egg fried rice and chilli beef mains. Far too much for us but really tasty and fresh and we had food for next day. With 2 beers and a sprite it came to £67 which we thought reasonable. Would definitely return to try more dishes.

Marshall Milinazzo Gabriel made the experience memorable. His beer suggestion was on point, and the food was delicious. Great atmosphere, and beautiful company. #M

Jan A Spot on in every aspect . From the first visit, you can tell a lot of effort has gone into this place. The service was great, with friendly and welcoming staff. The food was excellent — we shared four mains between the two of us, and the chops and veal shish were standouts. The bread and starters were super fresh. Loved the atmosphere and décor as well. Definitely one of my favourite restaurants in London. Highly recommended.

George G This is a great place if you’re looking for somewhere that has a bit of everything. They offer excellent coffee, as well as non-coffee options like iced matcha and fresh teas. There are also cocktails, winter warmers like mulled wine, and homemade drinks such as house lemonade or fresh orange juice. They also serve wines and beers. You can enjoy breakfast or lunch from their eat-in menu, or grab counter treats to have with a drink, like a house-made cinnamon bun, Guinness cake, or warm banana bread. It’s a pretty busy place, with funky music turned up for a lively, buzzing vibe. There’s also an outdoor area, perfect for warm weather, and toilets are available. The café is within walking distance of Finsbury Park station. When I visited, I was served straight away, though I’ve passed by on a Saturday when the queues can be long.

Seohyun Stella Park Had a dinner few times here, foods are always nice and very delicious. Restaurant looks small from outside but very specious inside. Staffs are really friendly and welcoming -especially Cynthia, Chim and Qing, kept checking on tables make sure everything is okay. Will definitely visit again!

E S Really enjoyed a Friday evening meal here. The food was excellent, the service couldn’t be better, courteous and friendly. Portions were incredibly generous, everything was tasty, and I appreciated the free salad, bread, yoghurt dish and Turkish tea. The Turkish restaurants on Upper St, Islington have stopped giving salad etc at the start of the meal — which I associate with a good Turkish meal — so I’d rather come here. I was made to feel welcome as a single customer and given a nice table in the early evening. The dinner was reasonably priced given the generosity of the servings. Only shame was that I couldn’t get a small portion of the fresh chili sauce that often comes with the chicken/meat dishes, they only serve it as a large (paid) portion. One of the waiters kindly gave me some anyway, but I would suggest this is also made available for tables of 1 or 2, as it really complements the meats so nicely. Highly recommend this place, also there is a nice buzzy atmosphere and no loud music on the night that I visited, so a more relaxed atmosphere despite the buzz, customers didn’t need to shout to be heard.
