Delicious food and lots of options. Great value. Ambience was great with live Greek music being played in the background. Make sure you book a table prior. Otherwise there’s a takeaway option. Highly recommended!

Do yourself a favour and book a table here. The foot was amazing! We ordered what we thought would have been just enough to fill us, and it turned out that we could finish what arrived. The service was fantastic. I highly recommend a visit

The starters were excellent whilst the mains were quite poor. Lamb gyros was unavailable which resulted in the menu options for the main meals were quite limited. Wait staff were good - lovely and friendly.

Good food and very pleasant (rose) wine made the choice of restaurant to be the right one for a good catchup lunch with a friend and the two of us. Disappointed to be forced by the online algorithm to choose the feast package although it was excellent. Lots of doggy bags required,
