The Triangle

I went here for a friend’s 30^th birthday dinner and we had a great time. We had to have a set menu (around £18 for 2 courses if I remember rightly) I had the spring rolls starter and fishcakes with chips and it was all delicious. Apparently this place is on the Tatse Card during the week so I would definitely say to use this if you can although the food was good I don’t think it was amazing enough to warrant the prices charged.
Despite this, the staff couldn’t have been more welcoming and the atmosphere in the restaurant was perfect so I’m giving an extra star!

This restaurant was overpriced and very average. I really wouldnt recommend it, you can get better food at so many other places in Crouch End. Avoid.

This place is well worth visiting just for the experience!
Excellent service from friendly staff the food and drinks were delivered timely and staff very attentive, This place is absolutely amazing, you will not be left hungry or feeling it could have been better.
The food is freshly made and the kangaroo is especially nice, People have commented that prices are quite high but it is worth every penny!
I can’t wait to go back again after my 1^st visit, The décor is truly amazing too and there is so much to see, do you want to know what it is? Well book a table and see for yourself.

Excellent Restaurant for a Main meal, all staff were really friendly and helpful. The menu is suitable for all tastes (absolutely delicious) and pricing was good too! We reserved a table and although we arrived a little late, they were still very accommodating, as we were, when they mentioned that they needed our table for a large party arriving in the next 15 minutes. Everything about our dining out experience was great and I would highly recommend to everyone. All in all we had a fabulous Dinner out and will definately be going back.

If you’re in need of a night out at a fabulous place with guaranteed fabulous food and atmosphere and lashings of individuality, you need to get to The Triangle.
This popular little hideaway is an absolute gem of a restaurant that nestles snugly between Crouch End and Finsbury Park and the moment you walk through the door your every sense is stimulated. A unique and absolutely stunning bar/​restaurant run by Aziz Begdouri who is a friend of mine and when he opened the restaurant approximately 5 years ago, I actually attended the opening and, quite simply, I haven’t found better. The décor is warm, inviting, a seamless blend of art from all over the world, lush plants, fountains in the windows (yes, really), a roaring fire in the winter and in the summer a simply exquisite garden that features a kind of. well, I don’t even know that there’s a word for it, you’ll just have to go and see for yourself. Oh, and did I mention the upside-​down bedroom on the ceiling? Aziz has done something exciting visual things with the place and its well worth a visit. I was there only last week.

Why is the Triangle one of my favourite restaurants? Because when I go out for a meal, I like to eat food that is imaginative, interesting and, of course, tasty. What I particularly like about the menus is that they are not tied to any specific theme or nationality; each dish seems to have been carefully and individually thought out so that the style of cooking, herbs, spices and accompaniments have been used to bring the best out in the ingredients. My last meal there, for example, I would imagine zigzagged across the globe in terms of origin crispy spring rolls with chilli dip, goat curry with mango rice, the famous Triangle Baileys cheesecake, accompanied by a New World wine and Chinese beer .
Because I can meet friends for Sunday breakfast at 11 am and the Triangle’s Moroccan version of a full English breakfast has to be tried to be believed! Then, if the weather is nice, we can go for a walk in Alexandra Park, or go blackberry picking; if it’s miserable, or we haven’t yet run out of conversation, we can stay on, maybe having a dessert and/​or light starter with a glass or two of wine.
Because of the extra touches, often of his own invention, that Aziz introduces into his dishes; for example: water melon in the stir-​fried noodles, parsnip crisp garnish, mushrooms marinaded before cooking so they taste like mushrooms used to taste; the delicate long strips of salted cucumber.

I was going to add something about the décor/​pictures but thought I’d better just stick to the food!
