In a very diverse London neighborhood of Golders Green, where a huge portion of service…read moreestablishments are closed for business on any given Saturday - for religious observances, this Mediterranean breakfast/lunch cafe was a welcome respite after a night of travel. Concise menu of all-sorts egg dishes, salads, coffees, desserts, wines, etc. They were willing to customize my dish - big plus. Friendly service with a smile. Eggs were perfectly cooked, and sides were well seasoned. Uncomplicated plating. Place was relatively clean. What irked me was the second hand smoke: the cigarette smoke wafting in from the side walk seating area through the open door... (cough cough) And just another note (because I'm an uptight auditory hypersensitive person): the chairs need foot pads!!! Breakfast for two: £18.50 ($22.50)

Where to start? As I walked in, most of the tables had dirty…read moredishes and half-eaten food still on them. It took me a minute to find one that seemed clean. It looks like the staff doesn't bother cleaning the tables after customers leave, even when they had nothing else to do. The staff was rude, the food arrived late, and when it did, it was the wrong dish - I'd asked for the Aubergine Shakshuka, which comes with feta cheese, and got the plain Shakshuka. Upon mentioning it the waitress didn't look bothered, and simply asked if she should bring me aubergine on the side. I chose to keep the one I've already gotten, only to find that it's bland and watery. Overall, not a great experience.

After a long day of walking around London, we found our way back to Camden Town and were starved…read more And it was 10 p.m. A bag of crisps wasn't gonna cut it. Enter Istanbul. Kebabs? Sure! But let me tell you...this is SO much more than just another kebab shop! I wish I could tell you what we ordered, but I can't. Mine was a stewed lamb atop hot bits of pita and slathered in their house sauce (like sour cream.) Oh good lawd IT WAS SO GOOD! Also equally delish was the hummus and pita. Service was super, food was amazing. Do yourself a favor and visit! I wish we were locals so we could eat our way through the entire menu. P.S. They do Uber Eats/new delivery if that's more convenient for you!

OMG! So much food…read more Between the 2 of us, we ordered 1 main course (iskander kebab) and 3 starters (sausages, imam bayildi - stuffed aubergine and falafel). The food was all super tasty, but we had so much leftover! Both of us had skipped lunch and were having early dinner, but we barely put a dent on the amount of food that arrived. As soon as we ordered, we were brought Turkish style bread lovingly buttered and 4 different dips (hummus, minty yoghurt, cheese and a tomato one). This itself would have been a sufficient meal for us both. The falafel came settled on a bowl of hummus. The side salad with the main arrived in a plate of its own. Service was very fast and the lady serving us was lovely as were the line of chefs we passed by on our way in and out. When you peep through he window, it looks like a tiny kebab place, but they have really comfortable seating at the back. Some of the other places we wanted to eat at in Camden on a Friday night were completely full, so we entered this place on a whim, but left completely dated and satisfied.

You know there's Greek food and then there's Cypriot Greek food, and let me tell you, the latter is…read morethe absolute one. This spot is authentic. And the best part? It's just a stroll away from my place (not that it matters to you). The starters are great - you've got the choice of cold or warm mezes, calamari, dolmas, all the usual suspects for a Greek place. When it comes to the mains, I highly recommend the sheftalias and pork kebab (sorry Kosher and Halal gang), or go for the mixed grill if you can't decide. They even do really nice fish dishes as well, seabass and salmon are worth a mention. And don't forget to grab some chips - they use the proper Cypriot potatoes. Weekdays are usually quiet, but on weekends it can get busy so it's worth booking ahead. The service is alright, nothing special - but hey, it's Greek, what do you expect? As for parking, it's not amazing - there's a tiny lot across the street and you can park at Cockfosters station.

If you want authentic Greek food, then this place is an excellent choice. The Meze is good, where…read moreyou get a selection of small plates to share, and includes everything from olives and hummus to kebabs and sheftalia. Their fish courses are very good too, and I can particularly recommend the charcoal grilled octopus - delicious with a feta salad and lots of lemon juice. Portions are big and you won't leave hungry. If you are going with a big group it's best to call ahead and make reservations especially on the weekend. The downside to this place is that it is small and when it is busy, it can feel a bit claustrophobic, and it's loud so it's difficult to have a good conversation. The decor is not my taste, I think it would benefit from looking a little more Mediterranean, but otherwise can't complain.

Two of us had the lamb gyro and one had chicken shwarma, and one had the falafel lunch special. The service was very friendly, and the food came out in good order. I just wish I had ordered the chicken since the lamb was nor very tender. It wasn't bad, just a little bit too tough for my taste. I think I had in my mind that the gyro would be life the American style, sliced off that big hunk of rotating meat on a spit, while this was actual lamb. The bread served with the meal was excellent as was the plate of pickles, olives and turnips. The restaurant was clean and the service was friendly as well. Just stay away from the lamb if you want tender meat.

We visited this restaurant on Saturday night…read more A friend had been before and had a lovely time yet her experience last night and the other five of us , it was our first time, were far from nice and one word to describe terrible. We were served with food , of how can I say half a packet of salt on everything from the Kalamari which tasted like it was brought from a supermarket definitely not fresh rubbery taste to the meat being so over cooked and full of spices this certainly was the worst Greek food well if you can say Greek meze we have ever experienced and note we are all Greek Cypriots ! The only items of food that was nice was the pitta bread and some dips. Having a heavily pregnant lady with us didn't help either we weren't treated with any kind of warmth or hospitality , they were too busy serving and caring more about the other three tables and didn't bother much with us , yet we constantly said please ask the chef not so much salt. We were also served with one slice of watermelon which he said was a fruit platter! Where was the fruit one disgusting sour watermelon We had such a horrible experience that we just wanted to leave. We asked for the bill which was incorrect yet the owner wasn't having it and questioned us then he has the audacity to screw up the bill in our faces and throw it and tell us to leave and don't pay then. And then he had the cheek to say we don't go out to eat we don't know ! We most certainly do go out for dinners whether it be local in north london or in the city or Mayfair we were prepared to spend even £100 on a dinner, if it was worth it . We were disgusted by this attitude of the owner and said no we are going to pay please amend it we paid and he was very rude and ignorant. We will never step foot in this place again and certainly never recommend it. There are much better Greek restaurants in north London, this isn't more than a cafe style restaurant in a hotel Stay clear from here
