"We've talked about going to Mi Amore for years. Glad we finally went. The ambiance and atmosphere was really good. All the staff were friendly and accommodating. We started with the House Pate and King Prawns with cherry tomatoes garlic in a red pesto and tomato sauce. The Pate came with a salad and 3 decent sized toasted ciabatta. Ample pate for the 3 slices of ciabatta and it was enjoyed. Initially I thought my prawn dish was far too salty until I introduced the Garlic ciabatta it came with, to the sauce and the balance was almost perfect. Mains of Ravioli Porcini Prime Fillet Steak. The ravioli and sauce was really nice and my partner would recommend it. The fillet steak was served with crispy roast potatoes a confit tomato, 3 mushrooms and roast veg. The steak was very nice and tender. The roast tatties were really crispy and worked well. The confit tomato was lovely and the mushrooms were tender and tasty. The roast veg was slightly underdone for my taste, but did not take anything away from the dish. My partner decided on having a Latte only, which she enjoyed. I had the Dolce Al Caramello for desert. A sponge pudding with a creamy caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream. The sponge was light and the caramel sauce was a delight and worked really well, as did the fruit and cream it was served with and 2 Rossini chocolate curls. With 2 pints of Birra Moretti, 1 Soda Water Lime and 1 Blue Wkd came to under £80 which we thought was very reasonable and we can't wait to return."

"This is not a glamorous restaurant it is a small, family run affair, a bit too brightly lit and in need of a few decorative flourishes, but the reviews are so good because despite the less than perfect surrounding the food is genuinely outstanding....I have eaten a lot of Greek food in Athens and the Islands, have many Greek friends and have visited the country over times. This food is exactly like what I have eaten there and in my friends homes. Tasty, rich without being overbearing, comforting, not greasy and totally fresh: and perfectly cooked. It's also reasonably priced. In my opinion it is much better than many way more expensive and celebrated Greek restaurants that serve greasy and tasteless Greek specialities I took my partner and our two kids and they all loved it. We had perfect deep fried calamari that is possibly the best I've ever had thick rings, fresh and tasty, just the right amount of light batter not those stringy thin frozen things sold in most places; spanakopita (spinach and feta fried pies) that were the perfect consistency and ratio of cheese to spinach; taramasalata that was not too creamy (but perhaps could have had a bit more lemon) and then the mains! A delicious chicken souvlaki and whole seabass, both grilled perfectly plainly fresh as can be and delicately seasoned; and a vegetarian Moussaka that was so authentic it took me right back to Greece, again, avoiding the over-greasy bland offerings of so many Greek places light, fluffy and gorgeous. All in all the meal was excellent I took what we didn't eat home and we had a second dinner tonight and it was just as good second time. I highly recommend this restaurant and have only not given it stars because, quite easily, they could make some significant improvements to the interior (dim the lighting for one) and possibly improve the wine list a little. But for Greek food I now know where I am going, everytime. I should point out that this is the first time I've been moved to write a review.."
