Frederick's (Angel)

• Atmos is fantastic but the price is a little bit steep
• 15 for two drinks (including service) which seems steeps given I ordered at the bar and they were brought over (not at my request)
• S size is deceptive from first glance with little tables seated outside
• Once inside it stretches far back into a big conservatory with a high ceiling
• It is spacious and decorated plainly but very tastefully with neat white tablecloths on each table
• S has a European feel with quite a Spanish influence and has enough choice but you can see each dish has clearly been carefully chosen to give a well thought out and varied menu
• S until 6.45pm other week nights which is 3 courses and coffee for £
• The normal menu is much more expensive with main courses averaging at around £
• 20 so the set menu is really good value
• After being served some delicious homemade focaccia and sampling a couple of cocktails (the Amaretto Sour was very good and complete with Maraschino Cherries)
• My diner tried the ribs and I had padron peppers with chorizo and rocket for starter
• The ribs were tender and juicy and coated in a tasty sauce and the chorizo was smoky and went perfectly with the slight bitterness of the peppers and peppery rocket
• I decided to keep to the Spanish theme and went for the Salt Cod Fritters with tomatoes and Aioli and my friend had the Lamb with couscous
• The latter was cooked to perfection with the lamb just a little pink and wonderfully juicy and the jus complimented the couscous allowing it not to be too dry
• The fritters were soft and fluffy and just melted in the mouth
• The dessert consisted of little sugar coated doughnuts which were like Mexican Churos and came with a naughty but nice Praline Creme
• The cheese board came with water biscuits
• Cornish Yarg and grapes and the cheese was good but I couldn&rsquo
• T help feel that more than one cheese would have made it much better as it was a little bland
• We finished with a warming cup of fresh coffee and some little handmade truffles which was the perfect end to a great meal
• S is fantastic and you really are looked after from the moment you arrive
• S wonderfully romantic and a perfect place to go with your partner for dinner
• Frederick's (Angel) doesn't look like much from the outside which is a shame but inside it's very nice
• Beautiful veranda with large white tables
• The service is very professional but quite slow
• This established Islington restaurant is tucked away in Camden Passage
• The walls decked with large modern artworks and plants scattered amongst the tables to give diners more privacy
• The cocktail bar is just as loved as the restaurant itself
• One of my favourite dishes I have eaten here is a scallops and chorizo starter
• Prices are quite high so this is a place to save for special occasions but the atmosphere and food are definitely worth it and they also offer a great set menu for £
• Would recommend for a formal lunch with the in laws
• Frederick's (Angel) is clean and neat
