Saw a rat run down the back wall, and got food poisoning the next day.!Just to make sure- this is my own personal experience, and exactly what happened to me- I have no personal vendetta, I do however think I should share my experience to save others/.So we ordered a bottle of wine whilst out on our ‘date night’, but they came back a few minutes later and informed us they didn’t have that particular wine, this happened two more times, finally on choice number 4 they had it (their house). We got the wine, carried on deciding what to eat. As we were sitting there I saw a rat run down the wall into what I later found out was their pizza station! As we had the wine we decided it was a little too late to leave, along with most other places being closed on this bank holiday. I opted for the Kleftico- I used to live in greece and loved this dish. They went away with our orders, then came back and said they had run out of kleftico (again a few minutes later). Which was definitely a lie- we were the only people in the restaurant! Kleftico is usually slow cooked and they obviously decided not to make any that day due to bank holiday I assume – either way, I don’t appreciate the phib. Anyway I re-decided on a pizza as I thought that can’t go too wrong! Then I saw the pizza being made at the same place as I saw that rat!!!!The next day I was violently ill, vomiting etc. This is the only place I had eaten out, and all other meals in the time frame were veg based with no possibility of food poisoning coming from that- I am 100% sure it was from here. Obviously will never go back, and will warn all my friends (and anyone who asks) not to go so they don’t suffer as I did. Unfortunately for me it ruined my best friends wedding weekend as I couldn’t join in! I just wish I left after seeing that rat!I hope my experience can help others to stay away, but most importantly bump the restaurant into having a look at their hygiene standards.
We haven’t been here for a while, so we decided to give it another try. Never again. The baklava was 2 tiny samosa looking parcels, and one had a chunk out. So I basically got one and a half. The food was very average, the Melitzinosolata dip was awful, no seasoning or salt. But all four of us spend the night in the bathroom with stomach upset and cramps.
The food was Excellent! Everything was so perfect!We had such a good time, it’s a very welcoming place. Fully recommended! We simply loved it!
A lovely setting! Next time we will sit outside. The restaurant has a lovely garden. The food was cooked to perfection and was well priced. I was very impressed. Everything was fresh and tasty. Excellent service. We will be back!
