However, service was slow, and after 15-20 minutes of us sitting down and taking a look at the menus, we were suddenly informed that due to our group size, we had to order from the party menu instead. The party menu did not have as much choice as the original menu, and in addition, we noticed that the prices were higher for the same dishes. It then took nearly an hour after we'd arrived for them to finally start bringing out some bread as they took drink orders first, changed our menu, and then took our food orders. Many of us ordered the Greek Meze Premium, which included a variety of cold and hot starters, followed by a mixed meat platter. The starter dishes were good and varied but nothing special, although we were also starving by that point. There were dips such as houmous and taramasalata, then there was salad, bread and some hot dishes such as calamari and falafel. Then, when the meat platter came, it was very disappointing. Many of the meats were dry and lacking in any flavour that it required a sauce for it to be tolerable. Also, it only came with a very small portion of potatoes to share and with no other sides (no salad, vegetables, or rice). Overall, I felt very disappointed with the quality of the food, as well as the incredibly slow and inefficient service, and I would say that the place was not that cheap either. I would not be returning here again.

Constantly having to look around and wave for a while to get service when we were only 1 of 2 tables being served. Rest of the place was dead. Food was far from authentic. We had soggy kalamari and keftedes which were very bland meatballs pan fried and cooked in a sauce. Never had keftedes like this before and I won’t be again. Highlight was the pita. Won’t be returning.

Really great place looking out over Fairlop Waters. The lunch menu was really nice and relatively affordable. read more Really great place looking out over Fairlop Waters. The lunch menu was really nice and relatively affordable.

Very quiet when we visited. Served outside with no issue, waiter was helpful and efficient. Food was excellent, between our party we had the chicken breast, king prawns and calamari with a selection of starters. Each dish was enjoyed equally. Quick mention of the bar next door, very reasonably priced! Parking uses the ringgo app but was free from 6pm.
