A near perfect evening. Lovely little hidden gem in Primrose hill with some very friendly Italian staff. In starters the duck ravioli was superb- it's sauce was to die for. The salmon ceviche was a little bit too citric for my taste but definitely worth a try. The grilled sea bass with prawn dumplings was a near perfect dish. The flavours of the fresh ingredients were retained while creating an amazing blend. Hats off to the chef - I am definitely going back here !!!
This is a perfect brunch spot to come with your girlfriends or with a special someone for a quiet weekender exploration. The restaurant itself is spacious and airy, with a garden terrace and bar area in addition to its plentiful restaurant seating. Surprisingly for a Sunday, it was unusually quiet, but perhaps this is because not many people know about Michael Nadra’s recent restaurant opening. Service was a little slow, although given how new this restaurant is, I am sure that this will be fine tuned over the coming
This hidden gem in Primrose Hill is always a pleasure to go to and never disappoints.
I always go here when there I have people visiting and want to try something away from the soho/ Mayfair beat. Staff and ambience are lovely, the chefs tasting menu is apparently to die for (I say apparently because I'm vego) and dessert, especially the chocolate fondant, is brilliant.
Negatives are that there's a train line right above the restaurant so if you're sitting outside, it can be annoying. I'm also always surprised that for such amazing food, this place is never full!

The best meal in London (according to a well traveled Los Angeles American)! Balanced, light, delicious, thoughtful, diverse, well-executed, elevated British food! Reminds me of some of my favorite New York, Vancouver, Vegas, L.A. trendy restaurants.
I've now visited this restaurant multiple times, and have had almost everything on the menu. Nothing disappoints! The Sunday roast is one of the best in town (according to me - an American, and my British boyfriend). I recently had the Salmon Ceviche (which I usually avoid when I'm not exactly in a "seafood town/city"), and it was light, delicate, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Can't wait to eat that again.
They are constantly changing the menu, based on the seasons and trends (they offers Veganuary!), so you'll find new bites in addition to the ones you already love, when returning here.
4 seating/dining areas; entry bar & lounge, outdoor patio, small indoor/daytime seating adjacent to glass wall patio, back "fireplace" seating room, and the underground brick "tunnel" (my favorite), which used to act as a passage way for the Camden stables.
I, personally, recommend this restaurant to all my friends (especially those who are foodies, looking for a thoughtful, well-executed, non-pub meal), all of whom have either been back or have been eager to return.
Don't be deterred if you pop in and the restaurant is empty/slow! They have a lot of private events/bookings, celebrity dinner buy-outs and odd busy-seasons. Your meal will, hopefully, still be delicious and memorable.
Dog friendly too! Like... my dog sits with me in the dining area (not just one of those "dogs only in the bar portion" places).
This felt like a 'secret find'. We had lunch here. We were actually in the overcrowded Camden Market and couldn't get a seat in side anywhere. I noticed this place is not far away and we decided to to try it out. What a pleasant surprise.
The lunch menu had three starters, three main courses and two choices of desert in them. The food was excellent, really really. And at 12,50 for a main course not expensive at all. We also tried some apple cider that the owner recommended that was fantastic.
The Internet works well, and the toilets are clean.
Note: this restaurant is in a basement but with a lot of light. Just that there is no 'view' if that is important to you.
We went to Michael Nadra's on Primrose Hill last night. It was absolutely fabulous. I had the asparagus as a first course...the dish did not disappoint nor the presentation. The Sea Bass followed with a light tomato sauce with just a touch of cream and olive oil; it was perfectly prepared. It was a group of 8 and everyone loved their choices. We will be back on our next trip to London and it will be on our recommendation list for friends. We were also warmly greeted by Michael which is always a plus! Highly recommend!

If you're looking for something a bit fancier than usual but not a pub this is the place for you, in the quiet neighbourhood of primrosehill. It's the only restaurant that really allows dog too!
I came here for my mother in laws birthday and as a seafood lover, she absolutely loved it. The courses are a bargain too with 3 courses for just £39 (not including service charge and drinks) its a great value for the quality. The homemade breads which came at the beginning was just divine with mouth watering butter I think it was from Holland. I ordered a tuna and soft shell crab starter served in citrus yuzu dressing which was tangy and great for a starter. Then for mains I had venison with polenta which was cooked beautifully and meat was really tender. We shared the desserts as the mains were quite heavy but definitely recommend the gooseberry sorbet and the chocolate fondant with salted caramel ice cream. The staff there were friendly and attentive not like what some other reviews say, despite it was a Friday night and all the tables were full. My dog loved it there too and they gave him a cute bowl of water and it's easy access to take them for a walk outside. Definitely a place I'd go back!
Surprisingly empty for such a nice restaurant. possibly due to its location tucked in a corner and the entrance being in the basement. First, the setting was very classy, the outdoor dining looked good for warmer nights, and the basement (where we sat) was pretty romantic. The service was very good, and the prices were more than reasonable for the quality of food. Portions were generous, and the quality of the food was high. We had the veal, salmon ceviche, scallops, duck salad, and breaded haddock as appetizers, and the steak, sea bass, duck breast, chicken breast, and cod as main dishes. We were way too full after that for desserts, whose menu looked pretty good as well.
Looking for a quiet Chef’s dinner, found this resto off the Camden canal. I saw a Michelin plaque on the door but didn’t register the details…early dinner, only diner til a couple that had obviously been there before came in and had the Chef’s attention for a ‘semi’ private service with me sitting nearby. I will note that as a diner Chef should have initiated conversation with me about his food, since I was the only other diner and paying…Solo treatment? Won’t take that away from my table Server.
Had the seafood ceviche, a bit too acidic for me, hummus as a side and the well dished sea bass. Early enough for happy hour wine and a reduced priced Sancerre by the glass, who does that!? Service very attentive. Multiple dining and bar area, accessible entrance off the high street.
Excellent service for Easter Sunday. We were asked if we'd like to sit outside as it was a lovely sunny day and started with a tequila sour (thoroughly recommend).
We had some bread to start and then all went for the Roast Lamb with all the trimmings, gravy & mint sauce.
The flavour of the lamb was great, the gravy was perfectly rich but not too heavy, and actual crispy, roast potatoes! A delicious Yorkshire pudding and light mint sauce topped off an excellent Sunday lunch. The portion was perfect too, filling but not overwhelmed. We had the grenache with our lamb by the carafe (I do so love when restaurants do carafes).
They have an excellent martini list that I'd like to peruse next time.
I would definitely come back here again and would thoroughly recommend sitting outside on a sunny day.
Food was insane, we were lucky with the weather so got to sit in their lovely courtyard, but if we didn't inside looked lovely too.
I had the miso black cod which was cooked to perfection.
Great atmosphere, service was pretty good although not as attentive as I would expect for paying £100 for 2 mains and 2 soft drinks.
Overall great and would return.
Very well executed food. Good selection of wine and cocktails.
Service could be a bit faster (we waited 25 minutes for our starters after ordering). Early dinner (before 19:00) is a great value. Overall, a pleasant experience.
I love this place. Nice and cozy atmosphere in an amazing place. It also has an historical tunnel where you can eat with a unique atmosphere. The food is well presented and tasty. The staff is brilliant, smiley and brings you to a familiar feeling.
100 % Recommend
Really excellent food. Friendly service. I am really impressed with “Lupi” I hope I get her name correctly; a jovial hostess who remembers her customer’s names. Would be an irony if I got her name wrong… well apologise in advance. Thanks for making me feel so welcomed.
I had the Sunday Roast which was excellent but the baked scallops was the one that truly stood out.
The restaurant is by the Regent’s Canal and very close to the Camden Locks. Had a lovely stroll by the canal after lunch.
Food 9/10, service 9/10, ambience 8/10, value for money 8.5/10. A real gem!
Absolutely blown away by this place. From the moment of booking with friendly accommodating service to the COVID-safe experience and amazing food and selection of wines and cocktails.
We went for the mixed olives, soft-shell crab tempura, burger and chunky fries and the Sunday roast (sirloin beef) - all cooked to perfection. The stick toffee pudding was to die for.
Highly highly recommended.
Brilliant is the word that comes to mind when I think about this restaurant.
Located near the canal and served by friendly and professional staff this restaurant met my expectations.
Both the martini/drink menu and the food menu are extensive and inovative and leaves you confused on what to order....my tip...do what I did, go with friends and order different drinks and food and try a little of their food.
I had sea food started and main and both were presented beautifully and flavoured and cooked pefectly.
Dessert was warm, moist and chocolaty.
Sp happy I found this restaurant and I cannot wait to return.
Delicious meal. Not too busy which was nice but I’m sure we missed out on the buzz that would otherwise be there when it’s full. Tucked away in an interesting location. Staff were lovely. Worth a visit if you’re looking for something different to try
The owner shows his love in food with great atmosphere and presentation on each plate surved ,the kitchen has perfect timing and the staff have perfect execution, top notch place. will definitely visit again for more dessert as the baked Alaskan is a must have !! Perfect for those special occasions , I love this secret spot in Camden. South African approved ,mwah thanks for the great experience here
