This is Cypriot-owned, I beleive, not authentic "Greek" (yes, there is a difference).

I had my birthday party here. I'm afraid I can't recommend it: the food was unexciting, tepid and nothing to write home about. Disappointing.

Obviously knows nothing about food

I could not disagree with you more - I recently dined at this restaurant and was bitterly dissapointed! The food was very bad in quality, taste and presentation. In my experience this is the worst restaurant I have ever dined in. On a good note the wine list was very good.

We went as a party of 13 and anjoyed a slap up Meze. I've eaten at most of the well reputed Greek restaurants in North London, and this one was right up there. The service was friendly, the dishes kept coming on a non-stop conveyor from Demetris, (the owner/waiter) and all of us had a good time. All the food was of good quality, except the houmous, which was awful (a small gripe). Another criticism I would level is that there was a slightly limited variety of fish dishes, though the meat course was exceptional. All in all an excellent eating experience, but room for improvement.

Wonderful traditional Greek food in a warm and comfrotbale room. All food was fresh and made on site - a rarity for Greek food in London. Good value. Can't go wrong.

A group of us went here and enjoyed a lovely evening. We had the Meze which was an eclectic collection of classic Greek dishes including a large collection of warm and cold starters with lovely dips and the nicest Taramosalta I have ever tried. It was hard trying keep up with all the dishes as they arrived including fish, cheese and meat dishes which were all charcoal grilled to perfection, I especially enjoyed the soft grilled cheeses the juicy pink lamb chops and the most amazing home made sausages which were a little like mini Greek haggis.

The desserts were too sweet and a little disapointing ,but a minor issue and otherwise great meal

The moussaka is absolutely delicious with a bechamel sauce straight out of heaven. I liked that they were served in individual pots. My husband and I loved the meze and lapped up every bite. The waiter even came around the room dropping off free plates of new meze selections from the kitchen -- all the diners seemed pleased. I loved the interior with its whitewashed walls, reeds on the ceiling, and pictures of Greece on the walls -- I felt like I was on holiday.

Only two drawbacks: We acknowledge it's a tough dish to get right, but my husband's squid was rubbery. And with the meze for two, we were charged for two -- £20. That pricing isn't so clear on the menu.
