Holy Cow in Islington

We had extremely good service from this restaurant, the manager helped greatly with our ordering. Would recommend their service from start to finish extremely polite staff.

Holy Cow serves an elevated version of your standard Indian takeaway. The spices and vegetables used all taste fresh and it’s a bit more like what you would expect from a home cookedIndian meal than some of the brightly coloured, sweet and greasy stuff often found elsewhere.My favourite dish is the King Prawn Jafrani.It would be perfect if only it were a little less expensive. The menu here is pricing itself at the same level as central London restaurants like Hoppers etc.. I’m not sure the food quite justifies that so for me, Holy Cow will remain an occasional treat and not our regular Indian takeaway.

The delivery driver from Holly cow is not good always delay the food comes cold, becouse they work from deliveroo as well as the some times, so is much better to get your order from deliveroo or just eat, but the food is good amazing delicious

I've been a customer of Holy Cow's for a few years and always enjoyed their food, but their service is chaotic and unreliable - out of my last 3 delivery orders, one was forgotten about completely and arrived 1.5 hr late after I followed up with them, another arrived lukewarm, and a third arrived 30 mins earlier than the time I'd booked - when I wasn't home.After complaining to the manager, he offered a free meal to make it up. But when I called up in the same week to order the replacement, I was told they wouldn't provide it and that I should maybe try again another day. Won't be ordering from them again - a shame, since their food has always been pretty good.

Very fresh and delicious Indian food to take away. The food is very good quality. It's slightly more expensive than other Indian restaurants but I know the food will be well made.

Have been meaning to order a takeaway from Holy Cow for ages and am so glad I finally got around to it! Hands down the best takeaway I have ever had and we will definitely be becoming regulars. We got vegetable samosas, butter chicken, murg masala and a couple of naans. All equally amazing. Thank you guys for the delicious food!

Three letters one word. Wow!Who knows me knows I love food, I eat out a lot I eat at home a lot, I cook and I scout the best places from Michelin restaurants to street food pop ups, this place is just one of the best Indian restaurants in London!If you want to eat it extra extra spicy, if you can handle the heat, just ask them they will give you the best spicy experience you will ever experience.

I have been ordering Holy Cow from Deliveroo for over a year and the food is really good. I think it is the best that I have had in London since I moved here from the States two years ago. Tonight I ordered directly from the restaurant and not only do they have free delivery, but each item ordered was at least a pound cheaper than it is on Deliveroo and there was a little something extra in the bag. I will always ordered directly from the restaurant going forward!

this restaurant has a very nice mix grill, nice for starters. For main chicken Biryani is very nice has a lot chicken. For drinks i advise mango Lassi. Costs around £20 enough for 3 people definitely go back again!

This is not what I class as a ‘traditional’ British curry. But right now it is my go to Indian take out. Their equivalent of the Masala is not quite as sweet and tomatoey as I like, but it’s a nice dish. They also do a nice version of a Dansak. All in all, if you want a great tasting curry and can live with it not being an old school British curry, then give it a try.
