Vinoteca King's Cross

The food is very tasty, albeit a little on the small and pricey side. But the steak I had there was cooked perfectly! I asked for it blue and actually got that - usually it comes back medium so I was impressed they actually did what was asked! The wine is lovely there too. A really great selection and the three/four I've tried are all great quality. The atmosphere is also great on a weekday - it's quite buzzy but you can still have a conversation easily. I've deducted a star purely because it is quite expensive.

Visited here for a glass of wine and some starters and it was good! We had the squid with potato salad and the cheese croquettes for starters and were pleasantly surprised at how yummy they were! Especially the cheese croquettes - they tasted so good.. The wine and bellini we got was alright, but certainly not the best we have tasted. Atmosphere outside was alright but because it was a Sunday evening, there was not a lot of people... so it felt quite empty and quiet. The waitresses were difficult to get hold off after our first order, I had to literally make my way to the cashier to make another order. Other than that, it was good - nice, quiet and pleasant. I'd come back again, and maybe try their wine tasting menu instead.

Always enjoyed going here, it has a good vibe and the wine list is very extensive. Great for a glass of wine on a date or after work. The food isn't particularly amazing and fairly overpriced though. It can also get quite loud inside unfortunately which can make conversations a little bit hard. Nevertheless, nice place to go to. Also they apparently offer breakfast now, which I have not yet tried but sounds like it could be worth a visit.

Very attractive restaurant with friendly service. It has quite a cramped southern Italian-style table layout, if you're still wary of proximity. Food menu can't really be described as extensive but the wine list can. Bottles start at 22 quid for a simple Italian white. Morcilla iberico and croquettes were delicious, fried Scottish cod cheeks a bit oily, chicken and leek terrine was a bit bland and came with toast, not a brioche.

Decent place to go on a weeknight was perfect for meeting family friends to have a catch up and relaxed bite to eat. Interesting enough meal with an array of small plates and mains. Great wine list, especially if ordering by the bottle, they also have some decent deals by the glass. I thought a nice touch was how the menu incorporated meat, vegan and vegetarian options in ways that as a meat eater I was interested in all the options on offer.
