I've found that Food in shisha lounges tends to be quite average, as the focus is usually on Mocktails and shisha. However, this is NOT the case for @vyb_dalston a new restaurant and shisha lounge 📍 located in Dalston. Swipe for more pics and menu

.

Even though I live in Ilford, it still took me an hour to get here by car! I arrived to a busy shisha lounge with a good vibe. The restaurant is currently in a soft launch phase and has a limited menu

.

However, I was pleasantly suprised with the food. I got a mix grill, lamb chops (accidentally ordered this), VYB Burger and Korean wings, chilli con carne chips and 1 Mocktails and milkshake. You don't offen see French trimed thick juicy lamb chops cooked to medium, this level of quality was only seen in high end restaurants a few years ago, but great to see here done right. The flavours of all the grilled meats where we'll balanced and flavoured. 

.

The burger had a good meaty taste, it was flamed grilled, but packed with loads of fresh ingredients and well made sauces. The chili con carne chips were a favourite, really morish and tasty!

.

I got a VYB Mocktail, which was too sweet and syrupy for me. The shake was good

.

All.in all, good food, well presented and a nice place to chill if you like shisha. There is a restaurant area, separated from the shisha area, but doesn't have a great vibe. I don't smoke shisha. Meal was on the house. Thoughts and words my own.

@halalfoodguy's review of VYB Dalston on Instagram

VYB Dalston

Requested for the lamb fillet with mash. He came back and said there wasn’t any mash left so i chose fries as another alternative then the lamb came out, i thought i was going to choke due to it being chewy and overcooked. I spat it out into the piece of tissue. I told one of the servers about the issue and he said they can’t do anything about it just because i decided to leave the food and sit back to do the shisha and after said something about the food. which confused me because what difference does it make for the issue to be resolved. My friend asked for the Vyb special mocktail. The server also came back and said they don’t know how to make the drink which is ridiculous. This place is a hit or miss!

The best lounge in the area! The staff are amazing and always so attentive. The shisha is consistently top tier, and the atmosphere is incredibly cosy and comfortable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great spot to relax. Oh and the Karak chai is the best

On Christmas Day, when almost everything was closed, I stopped by while I was out doing deliveries and asked if I could please use the restroom. Two young women working there were incredibly kind not only did they allow me to use it without hesitation, but they also offered me free drinks. That simple act of generosity truly meant a lot to me. You don’t come across kindness like that very often especially on a holiday. I’m really sorry I didn’t get their names but I hope they know how much their kindness was appreciated.

I’ve been here twice, love the atmosphere and the shisha is really good. The staff are SO attentive and polite which is very rare to find nowadays. Definitely planning to come here even more, 10/10 service and would definitely recommend!!

Went here for the first time & I must say the VYB was definitely there! The service was on point the food & shisha was great, cant go wrong! They even specify what each shisha flavour contains (which I have not seen in other shisha spots). We had 3 starters, 3 mains, 3 drinks & a dessert for my girls birthday! The staff are so observant & attentive & you don’t have to keep calling them over. They were so friendly & made sure our needs were met. This might just be my new spot for real! Price range was very decent. Definitely recommend going there & trying their food & shisha & just being there for the VYB! Ohh & parking right outside after 7pm.

The Midyeci Bar & Restaurant

Had lunch at The Midyeci Bar today and honestly it was one of those meals that hits the spot without you even planning for it. I was just looking for something filling and ended up getting the shish kebab with a portion of rice and salad. Pretty standard order, but they actually did it really well.

The kebab came out super fresh, tender, and had that proper charred taste without being dry. You know when the meat is cooked just right and you don’t have to fight with it? Yeah, it was like that. The rice was fluffy and had that nice buttery vibe without being greasy, which I really appreciated. And the salad was simple but fresh — crunchy veggies, nothing soggy or sad-looking, which I feel like happens too often at some places.

The overall vibe of the place was chill and very “Turkish street food but indoors,” if that makes sense. Nothing pretentious. The staff were relaxed but still helpful, not overdoing it with check-ins. It’s the kind of spot where you can sit down for a proper meal but also just pop in quick without it feeling weird.

Had lunch with a friend that also loved the stuffed mussels. We always order 1kg to share. They also have other seafood dishes which I have never tried before as that’s how good the stuffed mussels taste that I only come here for these.

A really great little seafood restaurant. Great food, delicious fish dishes, but also surprisingly good value. Quite refined on decor and atmosphere, but also quite a neighbourhood feel.

Very nice staff and atmosphere as well.

What a find. First time indulging in Turkish seafood.

Loved it. The trio wrap is indeed a banger. The grilled fish is scrumptious as well. A very hospitable waiter/ manager.

Will be back v soon.

A must try local, reasonably priced. Very very delicious and super friendly staff. I have recommended it to all my friends.

Traditional Venezuelan recipes with a modern and creative twist

Arepa & Co Venezuelan Restaurant - Haggerston

Went here for a late lunch and really enjoyed it.
The food was very tasty - we got buñuelos, tequeños and then some of the bowls to share and everything was really good.
Not to mention the tres leches cake, which was delicious.

The service was very friendly and the guy who served us made the experience even better.

Also, the location is very pleasant with the view on the canal.

Highly recommended if you are looking for something different to try.

Delicious little event as well in lunch spot. had the arepa and caca and the two top flavors and the caca definitely easier to handle. you don't have to use your hands and very balanced and has a crisp and also good flavors and the arena is more meaty but both are excellent. would recommend and affordable

As we were walkin by the canal, we run into yhis gem. Venezuela's arepas at its very best. We have the Pabellon del campo arepas and Toston Avocado. Absolutely delicious. Coffee quality second to none. Great service. If you want a treat go for it

Yum. Good food, great service. Thanks!

Breakfast reina was spectacular. You certainly won’t leave hungry, I was so full. A bit pricey but you are so full so it’s worth it.

Food is very tasty and makes you travel straight to Venezuela.
Atmosphere wise it’s such a shame to be in such a beautiful location, in front of the canal, but in a place that cruelly lack of taste and comfort. You’re sit next a couple of fridges and boxes; staff coats hung on the wall; cheap furniture and mostly a really rush service that makes us feel like the waiter was waiting to close the restaurant as soon as possible (when it was barealy 8:30pm…).
