The best Greek restaurant/fast food in town. Very good taste of Greece in a cozy atmosphere. Amazing Greek plates for all needs. And the sweets... OMG.

Brilliant flavours, we sat outside and had the gyros meal deal, 3 mild, 1 spicy and we all loved it, far to much food for us to finish it all even though we wanted to! The desserts all looked amazing as well, we had a baklava and a chocolate cake, really freshly made food, would definitely recommend!

Really great takeaway, the staff were so friendly and funny. The food tasted fantastic, I can really recommend the souvlaki wrap - it was great! We didn't get any but the desserts in the fridge looked incredible, we will be back another time to try them!

Highly recommend! We both had the chicken gyros £12.50 meal deal! The gyros alone would have been enough!! It was really delicious, fresh and plentiful! Lovely staff, thank you very much it was well worth a drive out for! ????????

Gorgeous Patisserie-Bakery, Great Coffee and Fresh Orange Juice on go! Bakery has outside seating tables and benches, weather permitted, to enjoy fresh pastries and coffee. Located on side of the main road in Handforth, free car parking on the opposite side of the road. Very popular with locals! Make sure get there early in the morning to have greater choices of sweet and savoury pastries and cakes! Highly recommended!

Tried Souvlaki tonight for the first time after a recommendation from a friend. Was not disappointed!!. Amazing. Popped in earlier on in the day to ask about the sharing meat box. Chatted with the extremely friendly and helpful Adri. Grabbed the food this evening. Adri and Levvi (apologies if the spelling isn't right) we're again very friendly and helpful. The meat box (might not be it's name on the menu) and pepperoni Neapolitan pizza were delicious and great value for a family of 5 We also got to sample some of the classic Greek confectionary. Soooo good. Really nice to see a takeaway using fresh ingredients to cook. Will be back very soon for sure. Maybe even tomorrow.
