Isso is located in Canary Wharf, offering a seafood-focused dining experience with a Sri Lankan twist. The restaurant takes its name from the Sinhala word for prawn, which is fitting given its dedication to showcasing prawns and other seafood in a variety of preparations.
The restaurant’s setting is casual and contemporary, designed to let the food take centre stage. With its location in Canary Wharf, Isso is well-suited for quick lunches, relaxed dinners, or casual meet-ups. The format works well for both solo diners and small groups looking to share plates and explore the menu together.
The menu revolves around Sri Lankan-inspired dishes, with prawns as the star ingredient. Options include grilled, fried, or curried prawns, served with accompaniments like rice or flatbreads. The cooking style highlights bold flavours, with a focus on spices and techniques typical of Sri Lankan cuisine. While prawns dominate the menu, other seafood options are also available, ensuring a range of choices for diners who appreciate fresh, flavourful seafood.
Takeaway is available for those who prefer to enjoy Isso’s seafood offerings at home. Bookings can be made online, which is a convenient option for planning a visit in advance.
