    Way too packed & can't even see what you're eating! Enjoy
    Jlee E.

    Typical Greek food but they pack you in like sardines. You actually bump elbows with you neighbors. They charge £5 additional per person if they happen to have live music (which happens to be awful tonight.) you can't actually have a conversation. We had to wait 72 minutes to get our starters. They were good, but the wait spoiled the it. And for the very slow service which they automatically charge 12.5% Impossible to enjoy the food being bumped every 2 seconds by the waiters. and the terrible noise. Not worth the money.

    Overpriced and terrible service. Extremely dead atmosphere. £55 for shisha. The photos speak for themselves! Don't go here.

    Calamari and halloumi starters

    Had it not been for the A Frame sign that said "Rooftop Garden" I would have walked right passed this delightfully precious place. My first impression was it is HUGE. You would never guess it from the the front. We were welcomed in by one of the owners of the place. He mentioned that it's been in the family for over 50 years and they just revamped the whole space recently. I'm currently looking for a place for a group dinner, so this is in HIGH consideration with all of the group accomodations they have. Just to test out their food we ordered some starters. PLACE: Since the whole reason I stopped was the rooftop garden, we decided to head up there. They have a great sitting area with retractable cover for the spontaneous rain that comes in London. Great investment I would say. They also have heating lamps along the walls, for cooler nights, also perfect! FOOD: Ordered calamari and halloumi to starter share and it was delicious. I'm a new fan of halloumi, and still wonder how I have lived this long with out it everytime I have it. This was no exception. The calamari was pretty decent. Not spectacular, but not bad. I would get it again. PRICE: For two starters and a glass of Rose, it was Under 20. For the TCR I thought that was pretty good. Many of the patrons around us were having a bottle, I didn't look at those prices, but I would say it would be a pretty good price for a small group sharing. Overall, I really liked it friendly people, great space, good food. Hope the group will like it as well.

    One Smashing Place :)

    Booked for a group of friends to celebrate Women's Day last Saturday on the recommendation of a friend. We were not dissapointed. The food, service and atmosphere were exceelent. After the meal, we enjoyed the live band and danced away till the early hours of the morning. Overall One Smashing Night!!!

    See all

    The terrace is bright and airy - a great place to enjoy a nice glass of rosé on a sunny afternoon.

    Upon arrival, it was clear this is a family run, deeply loved authentic Greek restaurant. We were…read moregreeted like old friends even though it was clear we were famished tourists. I loved the feel of the place. Small but generous in personal space. Extra effort was made to make sure our party of 6 were comfortable. And the food was delicious. The welcome pre dinner treats such as olives, radishes, and peppers were delightful. Then came the hummus--best I have ever had. The king prawns were simply cooked and wonderful. Everything was so fresh! The calamari, the Greek salad. All excellent. The entrees our party enjoyed included lamb, chicken, spanakopita, falafel, and so much more. If I lived in the area, I would frequent the place. I even commented to my wife that I could see myself landing at LHR and making my way straight to Aphrodite!

    Being vegan, I thought I'd have a tough time getting something here. What with most yelpers waxing…read moreeloquent about their lamb and fish. But our host was the most pleasant man and fished out items from the kitchen that weren't only vegan but also delicious! To begin with, even without ordering anything, pitas, flava bean salad, and olives, which, by themselves, more than hold their own. The falafels are one of the best I've tasted in London. And the hummus was unbelievable. For mains, the dolmades were excellent. Even the roasted potatoes that our host offered, and which weren't on the menu, were amazing. Overall, the chefs and hosts at the Aprodite Taverna take real joy in feeding people. And I'd definitely go here again: for the food as well as the service.
