"a few years ago I spent all the time in Greece. it came over a year and during my many visits I have eaten in many restaurants and taverns. I had some great traditional meals from the humble cuisines in small villages to the upper end 'city' restaurants. I love Greek eating. the kitchen is not like that. there is no Greek music and no sign of zorba. there is not moussaka. there is a fresh, young and lively attitude to Greek eating and I love it! all the aromen to crumb the Greek cooks into these traditional dishes are raised in modern contemporary dishes, which I believe the new approach to the Greek cuisine. my wife and I had 4 appetizers (how can they choose only 1? and two netzens who were excellent. the lamb Baklava-Starter was a taste of the heavens and an outstanding court under a very high quality field and it was closely followed by the black man who was so rich but well balanced with the accompanying granatapfelsalat. my wife had the excellent chickensuppaki who would have fed us both! the service was as good as eating. we had to remember that our meal times were coming together with a big football game, but we were back assured that it was a sport-free zone and that was it. the ambiente was very good, although the circumstance of football made the dinge somewhat calmer than normal, but nevertheless the feeling in the restaurant is a happiness. everyone smiled and was very pleasant and ready to answer the many who we had about the restaurant. we have a guided tour and saw the recently opened "garden" area with its rustic crash, which pushes on trend with the best places in Greece. I would like to thank all the staff of the kitchen for a wonderful experience and thank the management for their vision and commitment at the opening and the success of this beautiful juicy food. epharisto poli! we will return sooner than later."

"We came to celebrate our boys exam results and it was a treat for them however not one staff member acknowledged this and given we kept talking about it and was straight from exam results given out I was slightly disappointed especially as it was 10.30am and very quiet in the restaurant. We ordered 2 x full English and two other dishes and all had drink each bill was about £48 which I thought was reasonable for this day and age. I ordered a pate on toast and the menu said it came with chutney and salad which I was looking forward to, when I politely asked why mine didn't have any the waitress asked the manageress who explained due to it being breakfast time it wouldn't come with it, really that should have been pointed out upon ordering. The waitress was lovely BTW and was only able to give us what management told her. My partner wanted to order a toastie off the special menu however he was told we couldn't due to it being breakfast time and only one person cooking in the kitchen, we found this odd as the dish was no more difficult to make than a full cooked breakfast. Another dish was salmon and scrambled eggs which my son said tasted average, the milkshake tasted more of milk than anything else. The table also felt sticky. All in all slightly disappointed as it always looks very appealing on Facebook posts and walking past but I didn't feel we received a product or service that would warrant more than 3 stars."
