"Oi Vita Pizzeria embodies the core values that have made Italian cuisine a beloved choice around the globe. Utilizing authentic and fresh ingredients, every dish showcases the rich regional flavors of Italy. With skill and care, the chefs create perfect doughs rooted in tradition from the area near Mount Vesuvius, now delivered right to your doorstep in London. They transform working-class favorites into gourmet experiences while honoring their humble beginnings. I highly recommend trying the mozzarella and aubergine pizza from the menu, topped with extra mozzarella."

Acqua7

Menu • Bbq • Wine • Meat • Cheese

"I recently found my favorite cocktail at Acqua7, a fantastic modern and laid-back bar with stylish decor. I've visited many bars, but discovering this hidden gem was a delightful surprise. The owner is incredibly friendly and eager to explain the thoughtfully curated menu. I ordered a larger version of the sloe buzz cocktail, which turned out to be the best I've ever had. My friend tried the mezcalipa, and although we didn’t order any food, we were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary selection of meats and olives. This bar is truly outstanding, and I'm thrilled that it's so close to me. The owner mentioned that there will be more private art shows and creative events in the future, and I can't wait for that!"

Keren View

➤ 201 Holloway Rd, Holloway, North London, England, N7 8DJ, United Kingdom

Menu • Beer • Cafés • Vegan • Fast Food

"Apart from the friendliest staff, this place boasts a great menu and a lovely atmosphere. It's mine and my husband's favourite restaurant in North London and we are lucky enough to live just around the corner. We own another local vegan restaurant on the same road but do not hesitate to talk about Keren View. Please, please, please support this amazing small mother-daughter run business. While you're there, you might be lucky enough to have a cup of tea with the owner and learn about Eritrean culture. Honestly, Keren View is North London's hidden gem. I recommend their hummus and salad, injera (if you need another portion to finish your meal, I believe it is free), Brsa, Hamli, Atter, and my favourite, Ades. I must admit that these are the only dishes I have tried. For dessert, I recommend the dates with a cup of Camomile Tea or their sorbet. Sometimes they have different cakes available too which have always been delicious. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do."

The Muddy Puddle

➤ 142 Albion Rd, Stoke Newington, North London, England, N16 9PA, United Kingdom

Menu • Full • Asian • Coffee • Drinks

---

"Delicious homemade empanadas with various fillings, and a tasty and filling burrito with a hint of chili heat (filled with jackfruit, polenta, chickpeas, and chimichurri mayo made fresh on the day of our visit). The burrito was large enough to share if you started with the empanadas! While I typically enjoy avocado, it was nice to try something different. The cocoa-dusted banana coffee smoothie was also a highlight of the meal. We visited on a Wednesday afternoon, so the menu was more limited compared to Friday through Sunday, but they also offered pastries. The kitchen is completely vegan, with dairy milk available only for drinks."

Mediterranean Breeze

➤ 21-23 Green Lanes, N16 9BS, Islington, United Kingdom

Menu • Greek • Mexican • Turkish • Seafood

"A friend and I stumbled on to this neighbourhood restaurant by chance; no research, no booking, no expectations. We were then blown away by the quality of the food: wonderfully fresh fish, beautifully cooked. The service is also exemplary. I've always enjoyed calamari, but this was by far the best I've ever had: truly succulent and juicy. The mussels were almost as good, and the sea bream kept up the standard. The spiced quince with ice cream made a nice change from baclava in a Turkish restaurant (they still threw in some baclava). The owner, Tony, provides excellent recommendations — make sure you take them! He knows what's fresh that morning, and how his wife cooks it. The bill comes hand-written, and Tony forgot to include the wine (obviously I corrected him). I can't remember the last time a restaurant bill made a mistake in the customers' favour! No service charge is included, and it deserves a lot more than the usual 12.5%. This is a wonderful, old-fashioned restaurant, run by a charming old couple, committed to maintaining old-fashioned standards. The food is more than great and the prices more than reasonable. Service is personal, honest and responsive (providing Tony turns his hearing aid on). Tony warns you if anything you wanted was bought in, rather than home-made. Why don't unassuming but wonderful restaurants like this get Michelin stars?"
