"In theory full of promise in practice disappointing experience. Being Greek the name Byzantium brings a sense of nostalgia and as its local we thought we give it a try. Firstly we made an online boking and they couldnt find it. The seating uncomfortable, the paintings on the wall tilted, the door hanging from the weight and you need to man handle it to open it. The food, at best average and I mean at best and we tried amost the entire menu. Tiny portions lacking flavour and seasoning. The chicken and lamb skewers were so thin almost identical with the skewer stick in width, never seen that before and because they were so thin they arrived cold. I mean I understand they need to make money but... The fish bites didnt have any fish, calamari and prawns are not fish. Can't recommend a single dish maybe the patatas bravas but even those were full of sugar. Half hearted effort by the cook cause it definetly wasnt a chef, in conclusion not for foodies. Won't be going again and its a shame cause we want to support the locals. I am a big spender when it comes to food but 2 adults and a 6 year old £100 with the tip, felt like day-light robbery for their food."

Food and service was amazing. Thought it was good value for the high quality of each dish. Home made Moroccan orange cake was delicious!! We will be back for sure. Thank you for a lovely evening View menu

Good selection of small plates, with dishes from across the Mediterranean. I would say the quality of the food was consistently good but not mind blowing. Aubergine parmigiana was particularly good though and good selection of veggie options.

We were a group of 5 seated upstairs and had a wonderful evening. Small tapas plates (2 each) plus patatas bravas, flat breads and dips. Great variety of food all tasty and hot. Delivered by two different waiters, both attentive without being intrusive. I enjoyed it so much I booked to go again.
