Best Authentic Restaurants in Highbury

Great food and service highly recommend it for lunch

Had a delightful meal with friends at 40 Dean. Intimate environment with great food and service. Was particularly thrilled with their ability to provide gluten-free spaghetti which was among the best I've come across in a restaurant. Great place to go in Soho for a quality, good-value dinner with friendly, engaging service.

My partner and I had a wonderful dining experience at Bocconcino in Mayfair. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt elegant yet welcoming the perfect setting for a special evening. The starters were truly fantastic, setting the tone for the rest of the meal. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor, showing real attention to detail and high-quality ingredients. For mains, we shared the crab linguine and prawn ravioli both were absolutely delicious. The crab linguine was perfectly cooked with just the right balance of richness and zest, while the prawn ravioli had a delicate texture and a deep, satisfying flavor. It's clear the chefs at Bocconcino know how to treat seafood with the respect it deserves. Service was attentive and professional throughout, adding to the overall charm of the evening. We left feeling very satisfied and already talking about our next visit. Highly recommended for a romantic night out or any occasion that calls for refined Italian cuisine in the heart of Mayfair.

Delicious food, very helpful and attentive staff and a great atmosphere all round
