    We celebrated our 16th Wedding Anniversary yesterday at the restaurant. I must say, that we loved everything! I have been to this restaurant a few times now and I am always leaving impressed and with a full belly. The menu is more exciting than other Greek restaurants that I have been to. They have their own personal touch on traditional Greek food. They knew it was our anniversary and gave us a little goodie bag with a sweet message hand written on the bag and a free desert. We were not expecting this and thought it was absolutely lovely of them. I would highly recommend Philhellene. The staff are lovely, the food is amazing and the ambiance is so cosy. A special thanks to our lovely waiter. You made our night. We will be back, thats for sure!
