not a trusted place!
I went to check this place after reading the reviews on TrustedPlaces.
We entered the place which looked very friendly and unpretentious.
Candle lights and cosy atmosphere. We ordered 3 starters:
tzatziki, fasolia (beans) and beetroot salad.
The beetroot was the winning one but just because it is a tasty vegtable not because
of the way it was made... I have tasted much greater tzatziki before and the fasolia tasted like beans from a can.
The worst thing of the overall experience is that the owner decided that it is acceptable to watch a movie on his computer while other people are eating in the restaurant...In such a small place it is very difficult to ignore.
he even did worst by trying to discuss the computer noise by putting the music volume higher...
For mains, we ordered meat on the grill. It seemed that while being busy watching the film, not enough attention was given to take the skewers out from the grill and they arrived overly cooked and barely eatable.
I am not going back there for sure and also very surprised by the reviews on this page.
C'mon Gilka, the owner is part of the the attraction ;-) I think it must have been the son of the owner you're refering to.
I've been there three times now, most times with a Greek crowd, and everybody loved it. Even Mez who doesn't shy away from a complain, so I'm sorry it didn't turn out to be good for you.
