What a lovely restaurant. Big portions of really delicious fare. The bbq chicken was tender and the hslloumis really fresh. The owner is very hospitable, no wonder it's really popular. Wish they had more dessert options, but definitily will visit again.

The restaurant was amazing at accommodating my 7 friends and I, they have a cute outdoor space at the front of the restaurant, since it's in a quiet street you don't see almost any car or people walking by. All the waiters were very friendly, our waiter Maria was very patient with us giving us recommendations of dishes and taking care of allergens too. The food was outstanding, very authentic greek food, with a very diverse menu. I have been to Greece many times, and this restaurant really took me back to Greece. So Thank you to the whole team!

Great food and warm hospitality. The spanakopita was delicious as were the kebabs. Would have had the saganaki but the Mrs had on a bit too much hairspray. We were definitely concerned about starting the next great London fire.
