Reviews Patak Stroud Green Islington

Extremely fast and attentive service Olives and tomato dip on table in seconds of arriving. Olives, delicious, spicy, little too salty Tomato dip, delicious, sweet and juicy Basket of bread brought very shortly after. Fesh, soft and crispy but no doner kebab sauce on it(special Turkish secret). Still great when dipped in tomatoe dip. Mixed shish for main (Chicken & Lamb) Lamb, juicy, succulent, flavorful, soft, perfect Chicken, little dry (but very rarely very juicy anywhere) soft, charcoal flavour good Basmati rice a little basic but cooked right and soft, nice rice Salad lacked flavour, missing a nice dressing like pomegranate sauce. Yogurt on the side an unusual addition and not sure why/what exactly its meant to go with but nice, thick, rich and creamy Decor very chilled, dim lighting gives a relaxed and intimate vibe without being too romantic. Family friendly. Nice sofa style seating at some tables Plenty of pretty traditional hanging lights and plates on the walls setting the scene. Tea has sugar sachet not authentic cube. Pistachio ice cream, delicious, creamy, sweet but not too sweet with plenty of pistachio pieces. Baklava, warm, not cold like many places which is great! A little dry, maybe sitting a while but, not stale. Needed more honey on top. Pastry a little powdery/crumbly not soft and juicy. Not too sweet though like some baklava can be. The restaurant has a good authentic feel. Price at the higher end of mixed grills at £21.50 or £28 for mixed shish and kofté but not the most expensive and some others charging in the same range do not provide near the level of service or quality of food 4/5

Great atmosphere, fresh food, vegetarian options, friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend it👌( Turkish halal )

Such a great find. Came with a couple of friends for the first time during the week before going to Park Theatre. We could not find fault at all. The food was flavourful and generous, the beer cold and the service absolutely outstanding. It is definitely going on our favourites list for when we're seeing shows. The absolute loveliest people!!

Fabulous food served in a great atmosphere.... Plenty of space inside for both big groups and small. Good view of the kitchen from some seats too which is always nice. As usual when I eat Turkish I order a few meze and then have no space for a main but there's always space for baklava 😜

I came here with my friends, we were all happy. The food is great, the ambiance is very pleasant, the service is very nice. You find everything you expect from a Turkish restaurant. I would recommend it to everyone. A place where we can be sure that you will have a good time with delicious food.

A must go restaurant! Their meze plates are delicious - as starters, or you can simply enjoy them on a side with the mains. We went for their dish of the day - Tuna steak and traditional Chicken Shish kebab plate. Portions are huge and so tasty! Full of flavours and very fresh! Beautiful interior with polite, welcoming staff.

What can I say. Flawless on all accounts. The owner and staff make you feel right at home. No criticism. Perfect restaurant to visit when you’re in the area. If you’ve never tried Turkish food then this is the place to start.

Very good quality of food! I had hummus as a starter and chicken kavarma as main. Both of them were great! Big amount so you can have the rest for the next day lunch!

Petek is great. One of the best places for food on Stroud Green Road. It's well priced, nice decor and friendly staff. Best to get a big sharing platter to try as much as you can.
