Harden's survey result
Summary
In the cosy and evocative, small (27 cover) restaurant of the Islington Arts Club – at the north end of Upper Street – this August 2025 launch is from chef duo Louis Korovilas and Taylor Sessegnon-Shakespeare, who previously worked together at Pied A Terre. It’s weekend-only, from Friday dinner to Sunday lunch, in an affordable (£65 per person) tasting format rooted in French and Italian cuisines, with a weekly-rotating menu (e.g. Broadbean orzotto with chicken wing, Aubergine scarpece, with bagna cauda and clams, Beef carpaccio with oyster mayonnaise and baby artichokes, finishing with Seasonal financiers).
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
