"Beautiful designed restaurant and bar near Leicester Square serving Aegean inspired dishes. We had Seabass Ceviche, Saganaki cheese with truffle honey, Taramasalata Tzatziki dips to start and for mains the sliced Roast Chicken with barley, and graviera cheese and Pastichio which is a Greek baked pasta with king oyster mushrooms and a cheese sauce. For dessert we shared the Lokma , fried dough balls with thyme honey, walnuts, and served with Madagascan vanilla ice cream. A very filling sweet! Prices are high but it is a central location and a good place for a date night and there is good music with different DJs"

"The food was decent, but the waiter was quite abrupt and overly persistent when taking our order. He seemed unhappy and, when explaining the appetizer to my friend, spoke to me in a condescending manner. As a 30-year-old woman, I found it inappropriate for him to suggest that he could stop talking because he was explaining it to my friend. Overall, the vibe was off, and I won't be returning."

"First of all, I always pay attention to a restaurant's decor and salad before even looking at the reviews. The decor in this place is stunning and traditional. The salad included red cabbage and was dressed beautifully. The waitstaff were extremely friendly and welcoming; nothing was too much trouble for them. They even gave my children lollipops, which was a nice touch. The bread was fresh and warm, and the sauces were top-notch. The chili sauce is the best I've ever tasted. I ordered the lamb chops, while my partner had the shish kebab, and both were cooked to perfection. The rice was moist, and everything was full of flavor. The presentation was a solid 10/10. I would highly recommend this restaurant, and I'm looking forward to trying the beyti next time. Parking is just a 2-minute walk away and free for one hour."

"This is a really nice restaurant whose lunch menu provides great value for money. While it's not made clear on the lunch menu itself, you get both a starter and a main for £9. The portions were good sizes and we all thought it was really delicious and authentic tasting food. This is one place where we will definitely go to again. The ambience is nice and the waitstaff we had was attentive and friendly."

"we booked last minute and there was a lot of us. It was one of the busiest Christmas nights of the party season. Generous portions of food. Wine inexpensive. Great place to spend with a lot of friends that don't want to leave with a huge bill. Friendly staff went out their way to serve"

"We are not adventurous eaters and our waitress was very pleasant and patient with us explaining what was in the dishes, how they were cooked etc. We sat in a booth, nice and private so we could have a conversation. An appetizer was brought out for us to nibble on, flatbread, dip and carrot and celery sticks, while waiting for our food which came in a timely manner. We both chose avocado and prawns as a starter, followed by two different lamb dishes, both came piping hot and nicely presented. The portions are large! It was my wife's birthday and the staff placed a lit candle in her piece of cheesecake and sang Happy Birthday, what a lovely touch."

"Found out that under new ownership since October 2023, so recommendations to me were based on friends experience with previous owners. The manager was friendly and very attentive, asking lots of questions, explaining their menu when asked, telling me that the interior will be changed in the near future. Anyway, for starters we chose Calamari, Garlic Mushrooms with Cheese, King Prawns, and Halluomi. We then all helped ourselves to bits and pieces of each. The starters were plentiful in portion size, with all choices being great, especially the garlic mushrooms with cheese. For mains we chose a mixed grill, chicken shish, lamb ribs, and chicken wings and chips for my daughter. The chicken and lamb shish were both tender and full of flavour, and the lamb ribs were great. They all came with slad and bulgur (I can only describe it as a cross between rice and cous-cous).The mixed grill was plentiful in size and looked appetising, but my father in law enjoyed that all to himself , so I can only assume it was good. My daughter enjoyed her chicken wings too We were given bread on the table, which was warm and full of flavour too. We were definitely made to feel welcome, and will definitely return. Good to know that they deliver too. We were at the restaurant early (5pm booking), so were the only people in the restaurant, however, there was a constant stream of delivery drivers collecting orders for delivery. It was my daughters birthday the following day, so tye manager gave her a small dessert on the house as well. Parking: A few parking spaces on the street just a couple of doors down from the restaurant , where you use the RingGo App or good old cash to pay for parking."

"I came here for my birthday celebrations. The staff were completely rude and lacked customer service! I ordered a pornstar martini and was given a white wine shot instead of Prosecco, when questioned I was told that it was Prosecco but had been poured out an hour ago why is was flat! This makes absolutely no sense not to mention the health and safety of leaving food drink out for an hour. My party ordered the pan fried garlic prawns which came over cooked, were not cleaned and did not taste pan fried or of garlic! There were many errors of the night which ultimately ruined my birthday meal but one could not help that underlining racism played a part. The staff were so rude and dismissive from the start. I was so excited about celebrating my birthday here which was a huge disappointment, if I could go back I would have chosen to celebrate at Cocos! I will not be returning again that’s for sure!"

"The restaurant is a bit pricey, but the food is delicious. I was disappointed to find that their website had outdated menus. A slight price increase of £2-3 would have been understandable, but a dish for 2 people that used to cost £35 now costs £42. Our group of 12 had trouble splitting the bill because 6 of us ordered dishes for 2. The waiter was rude and expected us to divide the bill ourselves. Despite this, the food was enjoyable, the restaurant was clean, and the location was convenient. However, the portion sizes did not match the high prices."

"The service at the restaurant was a mixed bag. While two staff members were excellent with serving, the man who took our order seemed uninterested and made mistakes. We were not told when we made our reservation that there was a time limit of 90 minutes for each table, but due to slow service, we were able to stay longer. The female chef was fantastic and had to constantly remind the male waiter to check on us. The food was exceptional, but the restaurant lacked ambiance and felt more like a cafe than a proper restaurant."

"I ordered takeaway here for the 1st time was “stupidly” unaware of what the various sauces were called. The man serving was not helpful arrogantly questioned what language I was speaking as I didn’t know the correct sauce names (I am English btw! . I said my partner was French but I was clearly English and speaking it so didn’t understand why he asked that! As we waited for the food outside, he thought I was out of earshot and shouted “learn to speak English”. I went back to challenge him on this disgusting comment and he seemed surprised I had heard and then tried to blag he was making a joke! He was NOT! Just because I’m not upto speed on the official names of his precious sauces, it does not make it acceptable to be so rudely insulted or at least make sure they definitely can’t hear you! Safe to say we won’t be going back. Oh and the food was ****!"

"This lively little restaurant located right by the river was bustling with activity. The service was impressively quick, allowing them to accommodate a large number of patrons on a busy Saturday night. The waitstaff were friendly and attentive. When I inquired about the higher price of a lamb dish at £26 compared to a more budget-friendly lamb stew with vegetables at £20, our waiter was able to convince me to try the dish - and I'm so glad he did. It turned out to be one of the most delicious meals I've ever had."

"Fantastic ..... I took my husband for his birthday. It was our first time there. We were welcomed by all. Family run, so everyone is really friendly. Food was great. Fantastic valve. Plenty of meat going around. So much so we couldn’t eat another thing we were too full. The hot buffet was great, not over faced with food that been sat around too long. Regularly changed and topped up. Would recommend and will be back again soon."

"Chosen for its proximity to Hampstead Theatre and the good reviews (which must be from friends/relatives of the owners! we arrived at 5.40 to an empty restaurant, were totally ignored by the staff, saw a table with my name on it, eventually someone came over and bought menus but could not explain any of the dishes. Waited over 40 minutes for food which was cold and tasteless. Managed to get waiter's attention, said food was cold, she shrugged and walked away. I asked for the service charge to be deducted from the bill, this was removed without anyone even asking why! Why is this place featured on toptable? We would have had a better experience at Macdonalds!!"

"We booked a party of 8 for a 5.45 slot as we had to leave at 7 to attend a concert at 7.30. Although some members of the party were late, orders of most people were placed at 6.00. No-one got their main course (in some cases the only course) till 6.45 despite several requests that the performer in the party should be served as soon as her food was ready. Staff waited for the latecomers order to be taken, and then all food was served at absolutely the last minute. The staff seemed overwhelmed by the number of diners, and communication was difficult due to language difficulties. My Lasagne was overcooked and unappetizing. I will not go back."
