Stumbled upon this little beauty by accident... Me and the wife was staying local to see Rob beckett at the pavilion and walked past this on way to the hotel. My wife is half Cypriot so obviously it caught our eye.Went in by chance as did not have a booking and the staff were more than accommodating.The food was absolutely amazing and reasonable, I had lamb cutlets and the wife had moussaka. All served by lovely friendly staff. If I'm in the area again I would definitely go again.Thank you so much!

Lovely restaurant. I enjoyed the Chicken Athenia and my husband enjoyed the steak. Excellent portion sizes and a very pretty restaurant. We will come here again.

Great food, atmosphere and service. I had the BBQ dish which had 4 types of meat and the other dish is the lamb Kleftico which is probably their most popular.It's been a favourite of mine for decades and used to be called The Candles Inn I think.Anyway it's still a great place. Perfect for a date night :)

Went here, the feta filo came out and one was feta and the other was 100% filled with cheddar. Then had lamb but it was chewy and did not taste as good as normal lamb, as you could probably guess as there has been similar reviews regarding this, I had food poisoning. This restaurant needs to be reviewed by health standards.

My friend and I booked for Saturday night - neither of us had been before. It was busy when we arrived which is always a good sign, and we were seated straight away by one of the lovely waiting staff. We ordered a mezze each and a bottle of wine. The food was plentiful and gorgeous, and the service was very friendly. I’ll certainly be back next time I visit my friend in Westcliff.

What am amazing little gem.Tucked on a corner, 5 mins walk from the Cliffs Pavilion, great food. Good portion size, well presented and best of all not over priced.The serving ladies were attentive and polite.Highly recommend. I don't give 5 stars lightly.

As good as Greek food gets. Really piping hot, delicious food. The lamb was so tender. The atmosphere was brilliant, lovely music all night really added to the ambiance!

Fantastic venue, great food, lovely staff.Went to this restaurant for a birthday meal. The food is incredible and the portion sizes are very generous..I recommend the cheesy garlic bread and the BBQ dish - cuts of steak, chicken, lamb and pork.Very well recommended.

We love coming to this restaurant, we travel from Chelmsford and find it very worthwhile. There is a good sized menu with many superb dishes.So nice to go somewhere where you can have something different each time. So many places have such a small menu which never chages so you're forced to have the same thing every time. The staff are very friendly and yes it can get very busy due to shows at Cliffs so be patient,how the cooks get so many meals out in such a short space of time is beyond me. If I lived in Southend I would be here weekly. 5* all the way.
