Om Iznik
Established in 1989, this trendsetting Turkish restaurant frequented by Islington's intelligentsia. Iznik is the modern name of Nicaea, an ancient Turkish town known for the richly decorated pottery and tiles produced there in the 15th and 16th centuries. Beautifully decorated with dark wood, bright pink walls, floral tiling and lots of multicoloured glass lanterns hanging from the ceiling, it evokes the spirit of an Ottoman palace . Just as impressive is the authentic menu based on traditional Ottoman cooking (generally spice-free lamb and vegetable dishes), overseen by the congenial owners, a husband and wife team. Everything is prepared fresh on the premises, including the homemade yoghurt which they make from organic milk. Local regulars have include Tony Blair, when he lived in Islington, Nigel Slater, Katherine Hamnett and David Starkey amongst others. A restaurant with real character. Fully air-conditioned.
Opening hours:
Mon - Sun 10am - 12am

The decor in Iznik was brilliant with traditional Turkish lights all over the place as well as a large picture of Ataturk. The food was delicious, just nicely hot without burning your tongue off, but very tasty as well. The drinks list was well priced and reasonably varied. Overall it was a good evening and a very tasty meal!Recension
I dine with other 4 people on a Friday night at Iznik. This was my second time there. I was very dissapointed with the service. It took for ever to get our orders, they left menues on the table and never came back to ask what we wanted, had to call them many times. It was not a matter of being too busy as some of the staff was making calculations in a table in front of us instead of serving. The food was good, the lamb was tender and the mezze very tasty. We gave up on desert after 20 minutes waiting.Recension
I had dined at Iznik before and was happy to find it was as friendly as before and the food was just as tasty. The shared starter platter was a great start to the meal and the wine list was superb.Besökare
