During refurbishment before its opening in October 2011, the owners of this kebab shop uncovered an old shop sign over the door. They decided to keep both sign and name – a popular move with locals. When a national restaurant critic wrote a rapturous review, E. Mono’s success was sealed. And with good reason. The food is a cut above your average drunkard’s dream kebab shop. The salad fillings are varied and tasty. The portions are enormous: our chicken shawarma weighed over 500g. While the meat is nothing special (a little fatty and under-seasoned), the well dressed salad compensates. The lamb shish is excellent, but the chips are merely satisfactory. Warning: chilli sauce is applied with abandon. If you don’t love the burn, ask for less of it. Second warning: there are only a few seats, so take your kebab home or eat in the street.

Not entirely sure what planet the rest of the reviewers are on. I'm Greek so I know my kebabs and I can honestly say this is one of the worst I've ever tasted. I had the lamb doner wrap and it was awful. Full of fatty bits, chewy like gum. Spat most of it out and eventually binned it. Very disappointed as I went all the way to Kentish Town especially as I'd heard such good things about this place.
