“ Fantastic Greek food, best octopus I've had in a long time! Fantastic service, Thank you Tamia for a true 5 star service. Great music adds to the experience. Would highly recommend to everyone. ”
“ Adorable place walking distance from my hotel. Stopped in here for lunch and had a very good meal. Located right on The Strand it a lovely stop on the way to Covent Garden if want to be away from the crowds. Close to the theater for a nice Pre- theater meal. Prawn Saganaki is fabulous. It's a small plate with nice Tiger prawns cooked in a tomato and feta sauce with a hint of Ouzo. Quite good and a nice lunch portion for me. Grilled Chicken Souvlaki Wrap was a nice pita stuffed with chicken a fries and served with tzatziki. Good lunch... excellent service and quite reasonable. ”
“ reallyyyyy yummy mediterranean food. not too busy which was nice, finding a table was no issue. waiter was a bit inattentive but he was the only one working. the food was amazing!! i loved that plate thing where you got to order three different dishes. really fun to try everything. the falafel wasn't great though. ”
“ Fun little place down the street from the Vaudeville Theater, the food comes in small plates (1/2 portions at about 1/2 price) so you can have a verity. ”
“ They have a great Vegan menu here with a huge range of choice. Our family of 4 ate pretty much everything on the menu and it was all great! The chickpea fritters were especially good as were the Vegan meatballs. Service was good and friendly and the meal was pretty good value. I've dropped a star from my review as I was dIsappointed with dessert. I ordered the Vegan vanilla ice cream and got half a sundae glass (about a scoop and a half) of Swedish Glacé ice cream with no sauces, toppings or anything. Other than that would highly recommend this place. ”
