The staff here are incredible. Genuinely some of the kindest, positive and lovely waitstaff I have met! They made our dining experience so enjoyable. The food was lovely, a great selection is available. The restaurant is delightful, the inside is done-up nicely and the music added a lovely atmosphere. I hope to be back :)

Mixed grill for one was delicious, wife had the mixed souvlaki which she loved. Fast service and really friendly too. The restaurant really has the greek atmosphere, it made us feel like we were on holiday with a cold wine and a bottle of mythos. Will definitely be coming back again.

Fantastic service. Quick food delivery. Great staff. Very authentic Greek atmosphere and food. Staff helped us speak Greek. Very good value for money. We thought our starter was the whole platter. Would highly recommend the mezze platter. Staff were happy to box up our leftovers. This is a must visit in Harrogate.

Came here with the family, and we all absolutely loved it. The staff were friendly and accommodating and the restaurant was lovely. Our meal was so nice that my youngest asked if we could move to Greece. That only downside was the cost. With a drink each and a bottle of wine, we spent just over £180. Still, even with that said, we would return... Once the piggy bank has refilled.

Really nice staff. They make you feel right at home. The food was fantastic and the portions are incredibly generous, my partner and I got one of the sharing platters we couldn’t finish it but we both loved it. We will be going back.

Went here for tea. As you walk in, you are greeted by a friendly member of the team, and it gets better from there. All the staff are great and welcoming. Food is amazing with great choices of greek cuisine and a great atmosphere. Would be wise to book, as although not over busy when we went, i imagine it can be.

Despite having not booked, a table was found for us and the service was impeccable from start to finish. We had the meat Mezze. I would recommend this if you are very very hungry! A fabulous variety of dishes to try for the starter followed by a platter of meat kebabs. No room for dessert sadly! I loved it and we will be back next time we visit Harrogate!
