"As regulars of this restaurant, and numerous good Sunday lunches here, we booked for a Saturday night. The waiter came to clear our starter plates away, but only took 3 left the other 3 in front of us. We sat there for sometime whilst trying to get the attention of one of the staff as we wanted to order more drinks the remaining plates taken away. We were seated on the round table in the window, so felt we were slightly out of sight. Eventually I had to get up to ask a waitress to remove the plates ask to order some more drinks. 2 of us ordered Monkfish Saganaki for our main meal, which at £27.50 was not a cheap dish. Whilst my friend had a nice tidy pile of rice with his fish, my plate looked like someone had thrown the rice on with their hands. The fish was dry, grey overcooked. It certainly had not been marinated in any of the sauce, but a dollop just thrown on the top of the fish. I have attached a picture. We called the waitress over who agreed it looked terrible went to get the Maitre D. His response was “it looks ok to me”. He didn’t offer to remove the dish or offer an alternative he was totally oblivious to the standard of food being served up which was under par extremely disappointing. Only one person out of 6 was happy with their meal last night. There were numerous other problems with the evening too, but will make this review far too long if I list them all! Unfortunately we will definitely not be using this restaurant any time soon which is a shame as we’ve had some great times, but the standard has slipped drastically."

"this restaurant is getting better when we visit, but tonight it was absolutely excellent. from the moment when one of our party appeared early (first in the restaurant and was wonderfully respected for the very friendly farewell, this was a wonderful evening. the staff was extremely nice and efficient and made the visit really. there were free olives, brot and cheeses directly and we were made to feel welcome from the beginning. [sides: why not give restaurants to customers small free tasty stores? they cost pennies and customers love them. they are also a point of discussion. that was great. for the appetizers, the chorizo, the cloves in feta cheese and tomaten (I know, but it works and the calamari were all exceptionally good. the Greek kleftiko lamb was absolutely out of this world. boiled for three hours and served with a delicious vegetable pot like a ratatouille, it was really the outstanding dish. another member of our party had the steak in pfeffergrass sauce and welcomed the great part and the rich sauce. the brandy and tia maria coffee have a completely new meaning for the set generous measures. The only less than impressive element was the cheesecake of the day, which seemed to be an external source and more pedestrian. all dishes were beautifully presented and served piping hot. there is no doubt that eating now matches the service in bistecca. this was a Wednesday evening at 18 o'clock and in the following hour the restaurant was occupied but not crowded. the word has come out clearly. it would be too early to say it is on a par with the magnificent retreat restaurant a few hundred meters on the road, but it is certainly in this direction. bistecca can not compete with retreat on hire or ambience (who can? but it is certainly now competing with them on the quality of food on the teller and at the end it is important."

"unfortunately the meal started with a flat limonade for my son. I had raised this to statin our waiter) and he offered to replace the limonade, but since it was from a bottle, it was probably something wrong with the type as these bottles are stored in this restaurant, it was safe to have water. my daughter ordered the oldest, but was given tonic water. everything was clearly overpriced and eating didn't taste as beautiful as we were made to believe. it was very bland and little taste. the service of statin was great, but the whole service was ruined by the owner of this restaurant. I have explained that the children did not enjoy the vegetarian muse. not even offered to replace the meal with an alternative. most restaurants want their customers to be satisfied with the food they are presented, and willtry their best to ensure that the meal is satisfactory. the owner also tried to calculate for the two drinks that were not consumed during the meal. I explained that they were returned to our waiter as soon as they were opened. the children enjoyed the Helloumi-Starter, but with the netzens (vegetarian mousaka and vegetarian gyros (too much happily.) overall the main and gloomy (all vegetarian deserts) did not meet our expectations. the owner obviously has no customer service skills and rarely smiled throughout the culinary experience. I am surprised when someone returns to this restaurant when they continue to be customer treated on this wise. I would not recommend ordering the salat, it was easy and was full of red wobbles. a very dissapointing experience and I will definitely not recommend this restaurant to friends or family. sheila"

"So, day 2 in Chester and wanted to chill for the evening with some nice Greek food. Got to say round my area when you hear 2 for 1 Tuesday most of the time there is an implication of a drop of both quality and quantity, however gave this a go 2 for 1 Tuesday on gyros and kebabs here we come. So me and the wife endeavoured into chicken gyro each which came with fries and also shared some halloumi fries. For a side at first the halloumi fries looked expensive at around £8 just for that but when it arrived pleasantly surprised the portion was huge. So worth the money but the flavour was delicious not too salty and the honey dip complimented the salty goodness. The Gyros around £10 but remember we got one free was just amazing, the salad was fresh the sauce was the same but more importantly the chicken was both juicy, flavourful and NOT dry. The bread for the gyro was nice and soft. This did not disappoint aswell in the drinks department to Mocktails wife got a strawberry mint one I got a Mango one (which had nice unusual names) and so refreshing. All in all the food was worth the money and getting that offer on Tuesday was worth it which in fairness I would say I would pay full price on a normal day too. The staff were friendly, top notch people and helpful. The atmosphere was absolutely great just chilled you look round the decor is just old greek mixed with a bit of steampunk elements, you look around everyone is having a good time and most importantly just smiling. I would say if you're visiting Chester like me give this place a go it will not disappoint."
