 Verified Good food, friendly service
Really friendly service, superb food. We had the meze for 2. Reasonably priced at €23 each, so much food! Go hungry. They didn’t try and sell us more and we got a box to take some away. Definitely worth a visit.

 Verified Traditional Style Taverna, lovely food and excellent service
Highly recommend this newly opened restaurant. Received a very warm welcome, was shown to a perfectly positioned table at the front. Good choice of traditional Cypriot food, which is what we went for and had the bonus of Greek dancing and entertainment, which was a lovely surprise. Food was amazing and service was brilliant, staff very attentive and friendly. Prices reasonable too. Will definitely be returning.

 Verified Wonderful place and service :)
I had a wonderful time here! The food was delicious and the atmosphere lovely, but what made it truly special was George — the kind, bald English waiter. His warm smile, great sense of humor and attentive service made my evening unforgettable. Thank you, George! 😁💚
