    I have visited the Taverna once before a couple of years ago the food was delicious so I decided to return for my birthday. Very pleasant welcome the waitresses were very polite and friendly. The food didn’t take too long to be served maybe around 25 mins. Absolutely delicious mixed grill for two. We were stuffed and couldn’t finish it all. I’ve been to Greece 3 times and loved the food so I was happy to find this Taverna to enjoy the Greek experience at home.

    Good but, we booked our table a while ago and was place by the bar. Our chairs kept getting knocked into however plenty of tablets elsewhere. Ordered a bottle of Prosecco, waiter forgot. We would have stayed longer to carry on drinking but service not great. No sign of smashing plates or even offered if wanted to do this…
    Mythos TavernaResponded on 10 December 2024
    Dear Laura, Thank you for your feedback, and we apologize for the confusion about the plate-smashing—it’s only available on Saturdays. We’re sorry for the seating issue and the mix-up with your Prosecco order. We appreciate your comments and will work on improving both the service and overall experience. We hope to welcome you back soon! Kind regards, Mythos Greek Taverna

    Great food, beautiful décor and table settings but the service is so unpleasant. Got there a few minutes early to be on time and couldn't guess who the person sitting guests was as the only visible staff out front was the bar tender, came up to says I have a booking and received a very angry answer that she's not the one dealing with bookings, ok no problem, so who? I reserved a table for 3; 1:45 is allocated for my booking however the staff is so persistent on rushing and bothering you that the enjoyment of the meal is taken out. We had a waitress coming up to us every 3 or so minutes to take a plate away and ask if we are done when we still had plenty of the mezze left. God forbid you accidentally glance at any of the staff and they would run up too to ask if we were done. 45 minutes in, the waitress came up and asked if we wanted the bill - we were chatting so she must have assumed we just had a lot of "left overs". It was an unpleasant experience and all 3 of us felt rushed, once we did ask for the bill we waited 15 minutes for it. I personally wouldn't return, if you are so busy that you want people out the door ASAP maybe consider stating this on the booking form. Also the Baklava cocktail is nasty, tasted like kerosene in milk, really missing the pistachio and almond flavours so skip this if you consider visiting.
    Mythos TavernaResponded on 2 December 2024
    Hello Patrycia, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear you enjoyed the food, décor, and table settings. However, we are genuinely sorry to learn that your experience was marred by the service, and we apologize for the way you felt rushed during your meal. This is certainly not the experience we aim to provide. We will review the points you’ve mentioned with our team to ensure that we’re offering a more relaxed and attentive atmosphere, allowing our guests to enjoy their meal at their own pace. We also appreciate your comments about the Baklava cocktail, and we’ll take this into consideration for future improvements. We truly value your feedback and hope that you may consider giving us another opportunity in the future. Kind regards, Mythos Greek Taverna
