Eleni SardiMay 3, 2016OMG, so good! A taste of Athens in London. Authentic pittas, aromatic oregano & the best souvlaki sauces out there. #nom
James W.March 28, 2016Great tasting souvlaki. Very authentic and the best one you will find in London. Nice atmosphere and friendly service. Would definitely recommend!
- GaiaApril 16, 2016Amazing fresh homemade food! Vegetarian souvlaki was delicious! Staff were friendly and welcoming! Stylish cozy decor! Definitely going there again! Elephant and Castle needed a place like that!
- Lowri JonesMay 12, 2016Beautiful fresh and tasty Souvlaki and excellent service. Will definitely come back again. Good to have a little bit of Greece in Elephant and Castle!
Iunius MardoniusMarch 21, 2016Souvlaki with pork: great flavour, very tender meat (small portion though), a bit greasy pita. £5 each! Overall 7,5/10
Fernando Volken TogniMarch 16, 2016Great atmosphere. I love the chicken souvlaki with extra halloumi. Ah, and feta&chips!
Nadia PanagouMarch 23, 2016The BEST souvlaki in London! Make sure you try the greek salad and the fries with feta cheese. Yum yum!!- Tu HwntMarch 28, 2016Amazing! We go to Greece every year and nothing in London comes close to this. Very generous portions!
Lidia VorontsovaSeptember 11, 2018I love this place to bits. Always order the same thing: tyrokafteri, halloumi souvlaki, tomato croquettes. YUM.- Reanna Keer-KeerJuly 30, 2016Halloumi and pork with tzaziki, every time :) My partner's family is Greek and he wants to come here every night!
Great souvlaki well worth the, at times extended, wait.
KaramSeptember 2, 2017An absolute gem, come here for a quick bite of authentic gyros. You'll want more than 1!
Ben McDonnellFebruary 3, 2018The spicy feta sauce was delicious! The halloumi is the creamiest you will taste ever! 🌯
Kevin McCulleySeptember 15, 2018Great food at a good price with happy quick service. Can’t fault it!
- Anna SmithJanuary 16, 2017Souvlaki here is terrible. Meat had very low quality and it was fried on the pan - real souvlaki is ALWAYS made on skewer. Also - big amount of sliced lettuce doesn't belong in that dish. Disaster.
Maria Manoli-ZafeiropoulouApril 17, 2018Good souvlaki. The meat is not the best. However, their hallumi wrap is just delicious- George KyriakosDecember 24, 2016The best souvlaki in London. Pricey, but you'll be hard-pressed to find anything cheaper OR better. Excellent Greek salads too. Visit during Christmas and get a Melomakarono for free!
- Χ Ν-ΚMay 27, 2017It's not brilliant and it's overpriced. Make the effort and go to Great Real Hellenic Taste in Shoreditch instead!
Ali BJune 21, 2016I'm not sure who suggested there was great souvlaki here, but they've obviously never been to Greece or North London. Awful food, don't even think about asking for halloumi. Shame - the venue's cute.
