Llerena
4.6 (543)
£26 to £40
Spanish
Highbury/Islington
Llerena takes its name from a little village in Extremadura, southwest Spain, where four generations of our family has raised Iberian pigs since 1939, producing authentic "Bellota" jamón ibérico, chorizo and other pork delicacies. Our family created a business around the farm called Jamón y Salud to sell our gourmet products and has now brought this exquisite taste of Spain to Islington with the Llerena Ibérico Tapas Bar. Not only can you sample ibérico pork grilled meats and finest jamón, but also creamy Torta del Casar cheese and other traditional Extremadura's delights as well as the best wine from our region.

Rossella - Kentish Town
4.8 (1514)
£25 and under
Italian
Kentish Town
Rossella is the pride and joy of owner and local Kentish Town resident Luca Meola, the result of family tradition dating back decades:

1960: the Meola family opened the first Rossella restaurant in Benevento, Italy, combining products from their family vineyard with their love for food.

1978: Luca’s father moved to the UK, made London his home and opened a trattoria where young Luca learned the ropes and discovered his talent for cooking.

2011: Luca seized the chance to open his own restaurant aged just nineteen, naming it after the original Rossella restaurant in homage to his roots, and was swiftly embraced by the Kentish Town community. Not only linked by name, they share the same family feel, passion for simple classic Italian dishes with fresh ingredients, not to mention wine from the same family vineyard in Benevento!

It’s my second time within a month. The food is superb and I didn’t leave a crumb on my plate. I will most probably will be back and love the oyster mushrooms. Can’t get enough of them
