Great atmosphere, not great food. The grilled meat was okay, but it's difficult to get that wrong. What annoyed me though was that the salad had Danish feta in it. I found it rather insulting that we are not supposed to tell the difference (even though its the difference between mature cheddar and cheesy string out of a tube) - it's not difficult to find good Feta in Camberwell (the best is by Dodonis and you can buy it loose from the Olive Branch). The other no-no was the tomato sauce in the chick pea dish that tasted processed. I am actually Greek and I'm afraid that I won't be recommending this to my mother. Once again, the atmosphere is good, and if you stick to the meat, then this is probably fine. It'd probably recreate most people's Greek holiday experience too, as the tourist food in Greece is rubbish. My quest to find a half decent Greek restaurant in London continues.
