• "Amazing food, really reasonably priced and the staff are absolutely lovely!"
• "Finally a proper Greek restaurant chain opens in Manchester. Wasn’t disappointed. Everything tasted fresh and different."
• "I visited here with a friend on a busy Tuesday night. We choose the mezze menu where you could have two dishes with bread and potatoes of your choice."

• "The food for the most part was extremely good. Despite the disappointment of portion sizes, the food itself tasted delicious."

Cons:

• "Extremely overpriced for what we received. Small portion size and bland food."
