Where in the station?<br>

Across from Rowan's, in the arches nearest to Stroud Green Road, where Mike's Cafe used to be.

E Mono in Kentish Town is decent. About time a good takeaway Kebab place has come to Finsbury Park all the rest are dire.

Look forward to trying it. We are getting so spoilt with good food choices in N4

That's brilliant news - I remember reading Coren mentioning it. Just read his full review. Definitely getting down there soon.<br>

Fin · October 2013

<p>I read that Giles Coren review at the time and thought sounds amazing, I must go there. And now it's come to me!</p><p> </p><p>I may go there tonight, good spot.</p>

I've spent my entire London life avoiding kebabs like they'd give me the plague. But this place sounds very tempting!

Yes! But I find it hard to believe any kebab house could beat Mangal II - especially one with what looks like an Italian name - not the spiritual home of kebab. Sadly not yet in SG though they did have a branch in Upper St for a while.<div><br></div><div>OK, somebody explain to me where the name really comes from, I'm just guessing.</div>

I just had some chips on the way home from a good night out on Saturday. They were good and the service was amazing. Very friendly despite the drunken mayhem all round

The name came from the branch in Kentish Town. Having leased the site, the owners stripped back the modern facade, revealing - to their surprise - the original signage: E Mono. They kept it...

@quince - great fact

I had a kebab at the new branch without realising it was E Mono and my goodness it was good. Very highly recommended

Hopefully this will take us even above the short-lived glory of the <a href="http://www.stroudgreen.com/discussion/1417/kebabalicious/p1">early Kebablicious days</a><br><br><br>

The one good thing about Kebabilicious closing is that I will always be mayor on Foursquare.<br>

Kebablicious was great, tasty kebabs, friendly owner and a cool little back room you could smoke a shisha in. Shame it never worked out.

I had an E Mono kebab last Friday night. Lamb shwarma, fantastic and great value. <br><br>My only complaint is that it cooled down too much before I could get back to Hanley Road. <br>The shop needs to be further up Stroud Green Road!<br><br>Next time, I'll eat in.<br>

Tomtom · October 2013

Agreed it is a high quality kebab. What time are they closing on the weekend?<div><br></div><div>Does anybody know what happened with the kebab shop next to Lidl? Seems like there is some kind of refurbishment going on there...</div>

Arkady · October 2013

They are absolutely brilliant, and amazing value. I had three in one week, and now try not to walk past it.

munwin · November 2013

Just had my first e mono kebab. Completely delicious (and such good value), reconverted me to takeaway kebabs. Might even risk a doner/shawarma from there. Hope it won't become an addiction but can see the temptation.

marie · November 2013

Best kebabs ever.<div>I went there after reading this thread, and have now been about 6 times in 6 weeks...<br><div>I definitely recommend the lamb shawarma. (They often run out in the evenings though...)</div></div><div>Amazing taste, not fatty at all, at amazing value, with a friendly service. </div><div>Can't recommend this place enough!</div>

Is Paola involved? It sounds fantastic. I am off there tomo. Chang

Just discovered that our E Mono has a Facebook page: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/E-Mono-Finsbury-PARK/482168241871937">https://www.facebook.com/pages/E-Mono-Finsbury-PARK/482168241871937</a>.

Howdy, Stranger!
