We were positively impressed by authentic food, impeccable service and good portions. The lamb moussaka was delicious, right out from oven. Halloumi and hummus with salad & fried potatoes was yummy and good portion size. The complimentary flat bread with sauces and tzatziki was a lovely touch. Great value for money. The toilet was sparkling clean and the music selection from the 90-ies was very enjoyable and not too loud.

The overall experience is the restaurant equivalent of the legendary bar where everybody knows your name. Cat is an excellent Hostess, the Server Staff are an awesome Team, and the Chef is a world class best kept secret. (I mean, equal calibre to Gordon Ramsay if not better. When you eat here, you'll know what I'm talking about.) Perfect environment to relax and enjoy excellent cuisine which sustains a great feeling throughout its digestion. And you can carry on a quiet conversation despite every table full of others having a great time.

Important Update:

Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.

Felt a little bit squeezed in. However, it was Mother’s Day! Food was fresh, hot (apart from the salad!), nicely presented and overall delicious. Corfu chicken was amazing, as was carbonara and the slow cooked beef. Side salad presented on too small a plate and mousakka lacked aubergine! Overall a lovely lunch with great service.

First visit and won’t be the last! Food was tasty, well presented and great value for money. Service was good albeit the waiters did have some issues manouvering themselves between tables as space is at premium and it was busy for 5:30pm on a Thursday. Recommended!

Restaurant was packed with happy customers. Seated and served drinks quickly with plenty of time to peruse the menu. Food was delicious. Freshly cooked, well served and tasting great. We had lamb adana kebab and lamb chops. Both served with rice and salad. Make sure you arrive hungry - portions are generous. Lovely service from all the staff. Thoroughly recommend.

Fantastic food and service, which of course are the most important things about a restaurant. The music from the speakers was a bit too loud which spoiled the ambiance somewhat, and the drinks prices were rather high. Overall though, we and our friends had a great experience and would come here again.

Sunday lunchtime 22/2/26. Admittedly we were the only one’s in the restaurant so service was centred just on us but our waiter was extremely attentive and friendly. Obviously we didn’t have to wait too long before our food arrived. My Dad had lamb shank and he said it was the best he’d ever had. I had the vegetarian moussaka and it was delicious. Honestly, the food here is exceptional. This restaurant used to be the Flying Pasta and changed hands a couple years ago. The decor is quite plush and the toilets modern and very clean. The ambience was very welcoming. In my opinion 5 stars, we will definitely be coming again.

The food was very nice, the staff friendly and attentive but not intrusive. The floor was very slippery - it was pouring with rain and so entering with wet shoes onto a tiled floor was an accident waiting to happen.

Wow, wow, wow. What a fantastic restaurant this is. The food is to die for, Although it was very busy, everyone was worked off their feet, but the staff were attentive and very professional in the way they took orders and served the food. This is one special place to dine and I will deffo recommend it. We will be back 100%. Thank you Prowse, you are legends.
