Restaurants

Islington locals looking for a neighbourhood restaurant serving great French and Indian food will be delighted to discover Le Bijou D'Ange – or 'Jewel of the Angels' – on Theberton Street, just off busy Upper Street. The rustic dining room is ideal for quiet business lunches, romantic meals and intimate celebrations, and the restaurant is always filled with an artsy, well-heeled crowd. The waiting staff here are super-friendly, and Head Chef Dominique is renowned for impressive but down-to-earth dishes like foie gras marinated in calvados; crepes with bananas and pistachio cream; and the restaurant's signature rabbit and prune casserole with a plum and Armagnac sauce. Le Bijou d’Ange also serves an authentic Indian menu – perfect for diners who can’t choose between curry and cassoulet!
