Restaurants London - Dragon Castle

This is a chinese restaurant close to the Elephant & Castle Tube Station. It is one of the better Chinese restaurants of London. I would not recommend going out of your way for this place, but it is definitely one of the best restaurants in that area of London.

The decor is simple, but the food is tasty. We tried the whole sea bass (18.80 GBP) and several vegetable dishes. All were generally very good. Some perhaps had a little bit too much cornflour.

Restaurants London - Rodizio Rico

This is a fun Churrascaria in Islington (Angel Tube Station). They come with different meat skewers to your table and slices off pieces onto your plate. It is all you can eat BBQ meats, salads and hot dishes for 22.50 GBP which is very reasonable for London prices.

So if you are in the area it is a place that is fun and vibrant. It does get busy on Friday and on weekends so I would recommend making a reservation before you go there.

Restaurants London - Osteria dell'Arancico

This is a place you go mainly for the wine list. The food is simple, rustic yet modern.
It is definitely not on the cheap side (around 20 GBP for a main course). I would say the quality of the food is not so consistent and that is the main reason that I would hesitate to recommend it.

Otherwise, it is a nice change from the usual pubs in London. However be ready for a little hike to the closest tube station.
