"The kebab and chips were fine but portions for bread, rice and the dessert/fruit were far too small. These aspects felt rationed and didn't merit the high pricing."
Ziya Hakki
"The whole place has been revamped. Lovely warm welcome with excellent mezes. Can definitely recommend kleftico (order in advance and only available Friday and Saturday) and homemade chicken Kiev."
