I've walked in front of Ouzerie so many times but I never ate there until last Satruday.
After the Cypriot restaurant let me down because they were not picking up the phone, I was looking for a Greek alternative. After reading Yelp reviews, I decided to give it a go: what a great discovery in my neighbourhood!
We were 7 people and ordered 13 different dishes ranging from cold apetizers to the meat special, 2 bottle of water, 1 liter of white wine, 1 little bottle of ouzo and two mixed plates of desserts. Quality of the food was good and so were the portions! We spent less than 25 EUR each, despite the bottle of waters were 6EUR/liter (very pricey!)
I was a bit disappointed by the eggplant salad but the taramosalata (small fishes cream) and the spicy feta spread made up for it! The fried little squids are a must, as I think are the eggplants cooked in the oven. the desserts are on the sweet side and I would opt for the mix plate instead of one only, at least there is a bit of variation. Or just skip them but stick with the ouzo! :D
The place was full, so at least on the weekend I think reservation is needed. read more
