The quality of the food was excellent, service was fantastic. Our waitress was very attentive and courteous. Considering it was Christmas Day, some Christmas decorations would have improved the ambience, some bon bons on the tables etc would have made it a more festive atmosphere. If it wasn't Christmas Day, I'd say it was excellent in all respects.

Absolutely brilliant Greek food, not a single misstep with anything we ordered. The food was just amazing. Serving sizes were generous very satisfying. Kids ordered souvlakis and were super happy, adults ordered lots of share plates and we were completely blown away by all the flavours. The staff couldn’t have been nicer and more helpful and knowledgeable about the menu and drinks but they were busy so sometimes a bit slow but we didn’t care. We were made to feel very welcome and as it was a special occasion we were given a private dining area so we could chat away from the upstairs fun. This will become a regular for us!
