    Spreads and bread and Coke in a jar (why?)
    Nickie C.

    We were looking for a place to grab a small bit of food, and on a wet and cold night, Ergon seemed to fit the bill. It's a nice place, but a little cramped. There's a deli downstairs, where you apparently buy a lot of the ingredients for the menu items, and I would definitely pop back to check that out, as the quality of the ingredients in what we had seemed very good. I opted for a plate of spreads and bread, at £10, and my other half got some odd-sounding meatballs, for £9. One of the spreads was salmon, so I requested to have that removed and get more of the more-appetising-sounding spicy feta spread. There was a bit of a language barrier (ie, I only speak English, and the waiter thought he did, too) so ordering was a bit tricky but got it in the end. My plate came out first, about 15 minutes before the meatballs. It was served on a very heavy slate with 5 slices of bread - 2 a farmhouse style, and 3 a bit artisanal-y. I had 2 scoops of the feta, a splodge of aubergine stuff, and red tzatziki. I'm not sure what made it red - well, more just not-white really, but it was my favourite. The aubergine was nice, but I didn't like the spicy feta spread. It was really heavy on the smoked paprika, which I don't like (and wasn't listed as a main flavour) so I didn't really have much food, to be honest! Plus we didn't have enough bread (and why wasn't it pita?). I didn't have any of the meatballs, but my husband enjoyed them (but not really very much until he started using some of the leftover spreads from my food to enhance them). The service was fine, the ingredients good quality, but the value for money was bad, and the food just wasn't really exciting enough for that 4th or 5th star. A fine place to go, though, and I think would be more suited to a group of 4 people. The menu is pretty limited - less than what shows on the website - so go with people who aren't picky, share some meze, and you might enjoy it a bit more than me!

    I'm not sure my coke needed to be served a jar. The glass next to it would have sufficed...

    A friend of mine had raved about Ottolenghi when she heard I was coming to London, so this…read morerestaurant was at the top of my must-try list. Maybe my friend over-sold it and got my expectations up too high, because I was pretty disappointed in this dinner. We were asked if we wanted still or sparkling water. We said still and were brought out a £4.50 bottle. I know it's common to charge for water in Europe, so I didn't think much about it until I noticed that everyone else around us had refillable glass bottles -- free tap water that we were never even told was an option. We were seated downstairs at a large communal table. I don't necessarily mind that, but it was so loud that having a conversation was very difficult. My cocktail was delicious, but so tiny. The wine list was decent -- a good mix of options at various price points. As for the food, it was very hit or miss. The mushroom starter and the pork main dish were delicious. Unfortunately, the two most expensive dishes were disappointing. The prawns had great flavor, but a strangely soft, mushy texture. For me, the flavor made the weird texture okay, but my husband couldn't get over the mushiness of the shrimp and hated this dish. The sea bream was very bland and dry -- highly disappointing for the most expensive item on the menu. We ended on a high note with the affogato dessert (Yum!), but for such an expensive meal, there were just a few too many misses for us.

    I'd come with a good crew to enjoy a range of dishes. The beauty's in the sharing…read more Bathrooms are unsettlingly mirrored. Kind of fun, check it out.

    Upon arrival, it was clear this is a family run, deeply loved authentic Greek restaurant. We were…read moregreeted like old friends even though it was clear we were famished tourists. I loved the feel of the place. Small but generous in personal space. Extra effort was made to make sure our party of 6 were comfortable. And the food was delicious. The welcome pre dinner treats such as olives, radishes, and peppers were delightful. Then came the hummus--best I have ever had. The king prawns were simply cooked and wonderful. Everything was so fresh! The calamari, the Greek salad. All excellent. The entrees our party enjoyed included lamb, chicken, spanakopita, falafel, and so much more. If I lived in the area, I would frequent the place. I even commented to my wife that I could see myself landing at LHR and making my way straight to Aphrodite!

    Being vegan, I thought I'd have a tough time getting something here. What with most yelpers waxing…read moreeloquent about their lamb and fish. But our host was the most pleasant man and fished out items from the kitchen that weren't only vegan but also delicious! To begin with, even without ordering anything, pitas, flava bean salad, and olives, which, by themselves, more than hold their own. The falafels are one of the best I've tasted in London. And the hummus was unbelievable. For mains, the dolmades were excellent. Even the roasted potatoes that our host offered, and which weren't on the menu, were amazing. Overall, the chefs and hosts at the Aprodite Taverna take real joy in feeding people. And I'd definitely go here again: for the food as well as the service.
