"I have been here a couple of times and enjoyed the food, so booked this restaurant to go to with friends who had never been before. On arrival we had to wait 15 minutes for our table, which was not an issue. However I will now never go back. We had a nice meal, then we sat finished our drinks. After being asked if we wished anything else, we asked to order one more drink each only to be told we couldn’t as it would now take over an hour to get any drinks from the bar as they were busy. We all thought this was strange as none of us had ever been told this before in restaurant we had eaten in. Five or so minutes later the waiter then came back and said he had spoken to the bar and we could now order some drinks, which we did. Then another 5 minutes later a waitress came over told us we had to leave NOW as there was people waiting at the door for our table. She was extremely rude and unpleasant We said we had ordered drinks, only to be told she had cancelled them and we had to leave now. Usually if a restaurant needs a table back you will get a 15 minute warning. At no point we’re we told they needed the table back and if we had, of course we would have finished our drinks and left. I will now never return to this restaurant or recommend it to anyone due to one very rude and unpleasant member of staff."

Lovely welcome from staff even though we hadn’t booked. We shared Lamb Souvlaki lovely BBQ flavour) Greek salad and some cheese mezzi. All good and would definitely revisit. House red was very drinkable. Good atmosphere for a wet night in November.

The worse experience I’ve had, I had the beef stifado, I had frozen chunks of beef and warm chunks, the lemon potatoes were all dry, I think I had someone’s left overs, reported to the waiter and he took my plate and microwaved it till it had gone dry

Excellent we ordered a few mezze dishes (five between two of us). Absolutely delicious and a good amount of food as well. Had the baklava as dessert which was also delicious. The staff were great, good service, not intrusive. Well worth a visit, would highly recommend.

Great experience from start to finish. Great authentic food, literally felt like I was on holiday in Greece. Big restaurant but yet still felt intimate. Chefs did a great job as did everyone. Especially Sara who served our table. Legend. Brilliant night and strongly recommend!

We booked a table for a group of five friends. Really nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. We ordered lamb souvlakis, greek salads, tzatziki, hummus, prawn souvlaki, all served with lemon roasted potatoes. The food was delicious the lamb was outstanding. We ordered a variety of wine, cocktails, coffees and baklava all were delicious. We will all definitely be back!

Dined here for dinner Saturday 18th December. Were seated promptly to table with menus on arrival. 15 minutes later no one had come to take drinks order despite restaurant not being too busy and plenty of staff around. Had to flag someone down to take drinks order. Likewise another 15 minutes and no one attended to take food order. Had yet again to flag for attention. Food was tasty and well presented. Disappointed by the slack service but otherwise food was good .

We tried this restaurant on a busy Friday evening. Despite the fact that we hadn’t booked beforehand they went out of their way to find us a table. The menu looked very authentic and the food certainly didn’t disappoint. It was excellent in quality and flavour and the portions were more than enough. What impressed us most was the quality and speed of the service. There were many young staff and they were all friendly and responsive. I would definitely come here again.

Visited on Friday night. We had to wait a little for our table that was pre booked as it was very busy. But we got settled quickly at a table at the back of the restaurant which was very good. We ordered a selection of starters as a mini meze and a chicken and pork kebab. The dolmades were the best I have tasted and the Greek salad was fresh and varied. The chips were amazing proper home cooked chips just delicious. Would recommend and if visiting Glasgow again will be back
