Despite the Greek sounding name, looking at the menu, I'm wondering if it's actually a Turkish…read moreplace. Greek-Turkish Frenemies?! The 15 inch pizza was more like a 14.5 inch pizza (yes I always keep a tape measure on hand when ordering pizza to call out all the pizza dimension shenanigans of there), anyway I guess I can let it slide. My wife liked it a lot and wants to order from here again. I thought it was just basic ok. One of the cheaper ones I could find and they don't charge anything for delivery. The sour cream and garlic sauces didn't taste great and I threw most of it out. At least I didn't have to pay extra for the sauces. Matt G, reviewing a pizza place and not adding a joke/pun about pizza? Never mind, it's too cheesy anyway.

When we arrived to the restaurant, we immediately felt that there were major discrepancies in price…read morebetween the menu available on the website and the menus on the table - often a £2 or £3 difference in individual items. The hospitality was cold and unwelcoming, they seemed indifferent to their customers. The meal was served within an appropriate time, however the food itself really wasn't worth the price. The worst part was waiting for the bill for half an hour whilst the serving staff tended to their own dinners in the restaurant. The bill itself was not broken drown by item and given to us as a total amount, and the overweight owner sat back to his dinner with his back to us so that he didn't have to attend to us. We persisted and asked for a bill that showed us a breakdown, and got angry as they thought we were questioning their prices. He threw our credit card very rudely on the table. When we did eventually receive the itemised bill, we were charged for "inclusive" salads that were meant to be included with the meals. We were also pretty miffed to find that he'd added compulsory £5 service charge which was not stated anywhere on the menu, internet site or at the restaurant. It should not have been more than £43 and we were charged £53. It was my husband's birthday, but it was unprofessional, rude, and thoroughly dissatisfying. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

You know there's Greek food and then there's Cypriot Greek food, and let me tell you, the latter is…read morethe absolute one. This spot is authentic. And the best part? It's just a stroll away from my place (not that it matters to you). The starters are great - you've got the choice of cold or warm mezes, calamari, dolmas, all the usual suspects for a Greek place. When it comes to the mains, I highly recommend the sheftalias and pork kebab (sorry Kosher and Halal gang), or go for the mixed grill if you can't decide. They even do really nice fish dishes as well, seabass and salmon are worth a mention. And don't forget to grab some chips - they use the proper Cypriot potatoes. Weekdays are usually quiet, but on weekends it can get busy so it's worth booking ahead. The service is alright, nothing special - but hey, it's Greek, what do you expect? As for parking, it's not amazing - there's a tiny lot across the street and you can park at Cockfosters station.

If you want authentic Greek food, then this place is an excellent choice. The Meze is good, where…read moreyou get a selection of small plates to share, and includes everything from olives and hummus to kebabs and sheftalia. Their fish courses are very good too, and I can particularly recommend the charcoal grilled octopus - delicious with a feta salad and lots of lemon juice. Portions are big and you won't leave hungry. If you are going with a big group it's best to call ahead and make reservations especially on the weekend. The downside to this place is that it is small and when it is busy, it can feel a bit claustrophobic, and it's loud so it's difficult to have a good conversation. The decor is not my taste, I think it would benefit from looking a little more Mediterranean, but otherwise can't complain.
