We were drawn to Fatoush, which had a sizeable crowd and had no problem accommodating nine of us (5 adults and 4 kids). Even though it was 1am and the restaurant closed at 2am, they made us feel welcome and did not rush us. We ordered a variety of kebabs, lamb shawarma, chicken shawarma and Lebanese lamb biryani. The food was amazing, freshly made and delicious. They gave us free pita, dips (spicy garlic and a spicy dip) and pickles and after dinner, baklava and coconut cake. They were extremely gracious and made us feel like family. A really wonderful experience and we will be back to try the other delicious items on the menu.

We ordered 5 different starters (meze) and then each of us ordered their own main course. The starters were definitely my favourite; in fact - I would recommend future visitors to only order a variety of starters (hot, cold, salads, bakeries) and not even bother with the entrees. These are the starters you may want to go for: Hommos Beiruty, Moutabal Baba Ghanouj, Mouhamara (excellent!), Lahem B'agine & Fattoush Salad. Here's my thoughts on the main courses: one of my friends ordered the sea bass and she said that the cut was very "unfortunate" as she was digging through bones. Usually, she goes, when you cut a fish a certain way, you can actually take out the entire skeleton at once and then enjoy the meat. But maybe this is the Lebanese way of serving the fish? On the upside, when you order meat for a main course, you will be getting heaps of it - the portions are really generous. I, for example, ordered the Chicken Shish Taouk and it was nice. Nevertheless, I suggest you stick with the starters and maybe one chicken dish (which would feed at least two or three). Also, you will find a cover charge on your bill, which "covers" such things as bread and sides of vegetables. Speaking of which, you will find that they place a bowl of fresh vegetables on your table: lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, mini cucumbers, bell pepper & radishes. To be honest, we didn't quite know what to do with them and so we left them mostly untouched. When I slipped away to the bathroom later on, I saw how this salad bowl is supposed to be used: you chop up the veggies and prepare a salad. Doh! The Lebanese beer tastes nice - so I can recommend that as well.

A friend suggested we try out this new cafe by her office and thought it was the perfect day to try it. The shirt rib lunch special is popular so we gave that a try and it was delicious. I ordered the duck special and didn't really need a knife because it fell off the bone quite easily. I tried my friends seam bream and it was fresh and really good. All of the dishes were presented really well and thought it was such good value for money for the quality of food we were getting. The atmosphere is nice and casual so you can grab a salad or sandwich for a quick bite if you don't want to go for a proper sit down lunch. I'll have to come back and try the salads. Lastly, we had coffee and the sweet potato muffin which was amazing. There aren't many places these days that do proper homemade goods and not the kind that is defrosted! Service was lovely throughout. When I started reviewing on Yelp years ago, I wanted to share the love of small businesses like this because we are all used to chain restaurants and coffee shops but when you find a hidden gem like this - I'm just selfish as I want to make sure I can come back again and again.

With wine still in our glasses, and coffee still hot?! Sorry, have to give a HUGE thumbs down on service. And offer my disbelief and dissatisfaction at whoever is managing this restaurant and borrowing from Greek culture, whilst missing out on the key component of Greek dining. Either you're a sell out. Or you're an outsider and you're exploiting Greek culture and cuisine. One the website we get: "MAZI, which means 'together' in Greek", but it should be followed with, "... but don't take too long, we will ask you to leave." Having said all of that, and trying not to affect the rest of the review, food was not great. Mushroom Chicken was the best dish (was the priciest line item - second to their service charge - but the only dish that I was impressed with). Tiger Prawn risotto was very bad (both the prawn, and the risotto). Grilled Octopus was average (size, prep and quality of octopus left a lot to be desired). The Calamari Citrus was also less than average. Lot's of the seafood sadly missed the mark - Tuna Crudo was the most satisfactory of all the seafood items. I will say that the cocktails were prepared well. Including a welcome drink. And the juices were fresh - albeit expensive. In fact, everything was overpriced - but it is London, I get it. Still wish the food tasted better. The atmosphere was loud and energetic. The cherry on top was the service charge (highest line item on the bill). Cheers to ownership and management for appropriating Greek culture and putting a heavy London spin on the dining experience. My family would have had some choice words for you, thankfully they were not present to be insulted. Anyone wanting Greek food, I would recommend to look elsewhere. The culture and cuisine has A LOT to offer, unfortunately Mazi disappointed for us.

Every single dish we had was superb, from the jars of tzatziki and tiropita to the crispy calamari and seabass tartare to start. The fresh bread, which was lightly charred, really paired well with the tzatziki and tiropita which were lightly whipped and so flavorful. The seabass came with a cucumber and jalapeno broth which had just the right amount of spice to elevate the fish. For main we split the lamb and grilled octopus which were both perfectly prepared. The lamb, which appeared to be sous vide, was cooked to an exquisite medium rare and the octopus had a great char both was still tender. The service and setting were both great and we highly recommend this establishment.

The owner is really, really into his restaurant and excitedly told us all about all the different specials and options. My sister and I got the set menu, the Artemis (meat) menu which was fairly steep at £27.50 per person. Food was good and came in courses. 1. Sauce sampler of hummus, taramosalata, tzatziki and baba ganoush with bread. 2. Meat sampler of a single keftede, spanakopita and loukaniko per person. 3. Horatiki salad. 4. Entree served family style of grilled pork and chicken. 5. Dessert of yogurt with honey, a single baklava, karydopita and kataifi per person. Courses came out fairly slow and they unfortunately forgot about us for our last course. The owner gives great service, but he can't be expected to be on top of every table as it got very busy. The female server with reddish hair (spoke Greek) seemed out of it and not a good help to him. We ended up spending more than 2 hours at the restaurant, and it came down to the owner not having good support from the one waitress around, but the food was very good. Would have preferred it to be a little less expensive, but I'd go back.
