"No-big-deal birthdays are best when they’re in no-big-deal restaurants—ones that don’t try to be all singing and dancing but are just really very good. And that’s Rubedo. It calls itself a European bistro but what that translates to, really, is a homely little place in Stoke Newington that does great food and great natural wine. This is the kind of restaurant where you order everything off the menu alongside several bottles until the owner politely asks you all to leave because they would like to go home and sleep." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver, Rianne Shlebak, Sinead Cranna
"Rubedo is one of those neighbourhood restaurants that hides in plain sight. Almost everyone in Stoke Newington has probably walked past this restaurant multiple times without noticing it. Ideally you want someone who knows the area, because they’ll not only be impressed when you show them to the door of this place, but also with the rustic Italian food they eat inside - think chicory salads and handmade pasta. It suits night better than day, especially if you’re looking for a bit of a romantic atmosphere." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"We want to live inside Rubedo. Granted, we’d probably eat more burrata than is good for a human being, but, honestly, we’re pretty sure it would be worth it. Plus, we look a lot better in candlelight. This Stoke Newington spot has a winning combination of excellent, simple Italian-inspired food, and the feeling that you’ve just stepped off a plane somewhere where you need a high SPF and irony-free Birkenstocks." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Rianne Shlebak, Sinead Cranna
