The house specials at Constolia are a default option for many loyal Islington locals, and you can’t go wrong with these if you’ve never before sampled the wares at this great North London Turkish restaurant down Holloway Road. Constolia’s meaty moussaka goes down a treat, while exquisite traditional lamb casseroles (kuzu guvec) and slow-cooked lamb shank (kleftiko) are also popular among more carnivorous customers. Traditional chicken casseroles and a delicious whole marinated and chargrilled seabass dish (levrek) are just some of the other delicacies on offer at Constolia.
Though many choose to take away, take a seat instead and get to know this Holloway Road institution. The staff are friendly, and with Efes beer on tap you can make a Turkish night out of it. In recent years, Constolia has become a well-known brand in London’s Islington, and in response the menu has expanded to take in more international cuisines. While the core offering of traditional Turkish cuisine continues to be unwaveringly represented, you can also grab Italian pasta dishes, and some exquisite Eastern delicacies like the lemongrass-spiced Balinese fish satay sticks. This is top quality local Turkish and a whole lot more.
