A refined yet homely Belsize Park stalwart run by the same family for decades, offering a smarter, quieter alternative to the plate-smashing Greek cliché.
Ordering Strategy
If you are visiting for a special occasion, call ahead to pre-order the suckling pig or milk-fed lamb; otherwise, the set meze is the best way to share.
What to order
Lamb Kleftiko
Consistently praised as a standout for 'wholesome authentic Greek food' by local experts and restaurateurs for its reliable quality.
Chicken Souvlaki
Cited by local foodies as a favorite for a hearty and 'reasonably priced' authentic meal prepared by the family matriarch.
Smyrneika Soutzoukakia
An 'endearing' inclusion on a menu that expertly blends Greek and Cypriot influences, contributing to the tavern's 'modest Mediterranean buzz'.

Good to know
This is a family-run operation where the matriarch is still often seen overseeing the service. It is far more 'civilized' and intimate than the rowdy Greek party spots found in Camden.
