I have had a wonderful time in this restaurant. The servers were amazing and so friendly. There were no tables left inside, so they moved the tables from outside to inside for us. The food was also just perfect and very well made, you could remove the stuff you don’t like from your food. Would recommend to everyone and would visit this again!!!!

What a wonderful little treasure of a place. Came here pretty spontaneously with three friends and we were so happy we did. It’s a small place with owner Maria running the show - she is welcoming, warm, accommodating, and a wonderful chef. We had the pork gyros, the chicken gyros and a club gyros, the spanakopita, feta pasty with honey as well as a Greek salad. The gyros were juice and flavourful, the tzatziki genuinely the best in Glasgow, and all the rest of the dishes were wonderful too. We were allowed to BYOB for a very, very reasonable £2.50 corkage. Prices of the dishes are super fair too, all the food is home made and it tastes like it too! Highly recommend this place and I hope more people find it. We felt incredibly well taken care of and can’t wait to come back.

Wonderful place, lovely staff. The food was fantastic and unique, all made in-house. I had a sausage gyros which was fantastic and as a part of a specials deal had a drink and a baklava. There were other miscellaneous Greek items such as honey and biscuits for sale. Limited seating however when we went there were seats available. Overall a great place for lunch, would definitely come back to try more of the menu.

Great place, brilliant food, and lovely staff but a bit of a tight squeeze. The mussel risotto was beautiful.
