Was Anonym at Hellenis a mag?

they will not be disappointed, this place is amazing. eating is fantastic, we chose a set menu for a party of 10 and eating is just coming! each court a surprise. the staff and the service are not in any case. do not take my word for it, go and try the experience View all feedback.

What Anonym dislikes about Hellenis:

hopeless would not recommend! first experience service rude and legitimate! time wasted! as answer to their answer if they had a “hard working family restaurant” they would have me and my friends in for a coffee after 9:30 a.m. on a Friday night instead of telling us away “inner only” if their kitchen was probably closed anyway. in my opinion, I am more than entitled to have an opinion still hopeless and still a wast...

Love this place. This was our second time here and we couldn’t go past old favourites. Try the feta chips, the saganaki and calamari. This time we got the Tasting Banquet so had the baklava for dessert, which was a treat! Service was spot on and the prices were decent. Ample parking round back if you need. Good for a date night or a group function. There was too much for the both of us but taking the rest home was no problem. Service: Dine in

Hellenis Cafe is an easy, local affordable restaurant with amazing service and wonderful waiters. I love that you can watch the food being cooked through the open kitchen and the ambience/atmosphere. The staff provide a cheerful, authentic, Greek experience. There is nothing I have tried at this restaurant which I wouldn't HIGHLY recommend Service: Dine in

Hellenis is my go-to spot for takeaway, and the food is always consistently delicious. The flavors are fresh and authentic, and the quality never fails. The owners are friendly and make sure each order is well-prepared and on time. Highly recommend if you're looking for tasty, reliable food and excellent service. It's always a great experience!

Ordered takeaway. Got there and place was buzzing with people so I thought that was a good sign but then I got to the counter, paid and went to the car. The smell of the food was amazing so I tried the calamari. It was oily and needed seasonings and that is all they provided even though the order was meant to come with dill aioli then I tried a bite of the lamb skewers and they were super raw and had no flavor. I came home and recooked the skewers and tried my best saving the calamari. Not worth the 15 mins drive.

They enjoy souvlaki. clean and fresh, but the taste of the road is missing. the restaurant was busy, but the food was delivered quickly.

- aazing! one of my favorite restaurants. chickens, auberginenchips, taramasalata and pita are the slopes for me. beautiful and welcoming staff! would highly recommend.

The food at this restaurant is exceptional. I highly recommend it and will definitely be coming back. We absolutely loved the tender pan-fried calamari, honey-glazed eggplant chips, and a delightful salad with peas, broad beans, mint, feta, and freekeh. The cheese and spinach croquettes were also fantastic. For dessert, the halva ice cream and perfectly cooked baklava were outstanding. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience.

This restaurant offers a wonderful atmosphere, outstanding service, and a welcoming staff. Mary, you truly do a fantastic job. It's unfortunate that you'll miss Rosemary and her friends so dearly, especially since you have been there quite frequently. The food is exceptional. - Glenis
