The food was not authentic Greek or seasoned. Very poor performance from someone that was expecting real Greek food. Although, staff where nice. Also, house wine was not nice and tasted fizzy, not worth £17 a bottle that they charged.

Friendly staff and fantastic food - a great Meze selection with every dish so tasty. The chocolate baklava dessert was also definitely worth straying from the traditional version. We will be back soon.

A taste of Greece in Horwich washed down with genuine Greek/Cypriot wine and beer all served in a typically Greek atmosphere. Highly recommended - Give it a try!

Cosy, intimate, the staff are really friendly and informative, the menu was varied and authentic, the food was excellent, we are still very new to Greek cuisine, but really enjoyed it, gave them 24 hours notice we wanted the lamb as requested on the website, but everything tremendous, going back to try the Mezze on a week or two

Usual excellent (and very filling) mezzes. Great Value! Perhaps the decor and facilities could use an uplift but the food & friendly staff are great.

The food is delicious and the staff are friendly. There were 4 of us and we had 3 courses each which we don’t usually do but couldn’t resist! I recommend the Kalamari, spinach and feta parcels (I forget the Greek name) for staters and chicken slouvaki and aubergine imam combination for main. Although all our dishes, including the Meze have been excellent on previous visits. Don’t be put off by the decor on entering, this place is always busy which speaks for itself. A little bit of Greece on our doorstep. Will be back soon.

Good food and friendly service. We were given menu advice to help us enjoy our meal. Timings were just right so we weren't rushed but also didn't wait too long between courses.

Food was amazing and could not fault it, however, the service was very poor. We had to ask to order our food, ask for drinks to be ordered, having booked 2 days prior i wouldn't have expected this. That said we would return.
