2nd time here and as always, the restaurant does not fail to impress.

Lovely food. Big portions.

The food and service were outstanding. We tried several of the appetizers including hummus and tzatki. We ordered a couple of entrees to share. It was a great way to try lots of things. All the food was tasty and freshly prepared. The pita bread was very flavorful and great texture. We got baklava and orange cake for dessert which were both fantastic. There's limited parking but it's close walking to the city center. The inside is accessible but there is a step up into the entrance.Vegetarian options: Lots of choices for vegetarians but not as great for vegan.

If we return to Edinburgh, we will not hesitate to return to this Greek restaurant. We ordered two gyros wrapes, one chicken and the other vegetable with hummus sauce, it was super good, and we were treated great and the waiters were very friendly. They have very good taste in decoration, it is a shame that in Spain you cannot have a Greek restaurant close to home. 100% recommended

Outstanding Greek food. Portions are generous, and everything is so flavourful. Highly recommended.

What a lovely place - I wish I actually lived in Edinburgh so I could come back here!! We shared the pikilia platter and also got the dolmades and saganaki, and also shared a baklava for dessert and everything was absolutely delicious, it was just like being back in Greece. The only downside was that they couldn’t swap the cocktail sauce in the platter for extra tzatziki (we love tzatziki) but honestly the food was so good that we weren’t that bothered. The saganaki in particular really stood out to us, the balance between the sweet honey and salty cheese was just perfection!!I also loved the interior design - the hanging plants, decorations and wall art were giving me inspiration for when I design my own home in the future!!

Picture perfect little Greek restaurant. Food was amazing and the place had such a homely, welcoming feel. Prices were great too.
We went to Fava at 7 PM on a Monday evening, despite this the place was fully booked and people were being turned away at the door at first we assumed this was a good sign.Food service was fast and the portion size of the Gyros portions was good for the price however they were unable to accommodate my request of grilled veggies as a replacement for the falafel, this is a bit strange as the grilled veggies were an option for the usual Gyros wraps.The hummus that was served with them was rather bland as was my partners Tzatziki sauce, the fries were a little overdone and the salad was very onion heavy.Unfortunately I have to mark down the service as no one came to our table to ask how our meal was until after we had finished, the staff however did seem a little stretched with only 2 or 3 of them in front of house with one on the bar.The restaurant itself was very noisy making having a conversation difficult with the background music simply adding to the cacophony of noise.Furthermore the hand dryers in the bathrooms were not working and I had to use loo roll to dry my hands.Overall a very mediocre experience and far from the best food I have had for the price which was disappointing.

This is the second time I have visited this restaurant and I will be back!! Food is delicious and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Prices are about average I would say. Highly recommend.

For the money we pay, the waiter is not friendly. There is a 10% compulsory service charge which is not well deserved. The food is amazing we are here for our anniversary and satisfied.

Very busy so service was a tiny bit slow but the food was lovely and the staff are very nice. My only complaint, and it's the same for most restaurants, is that I had trouble hearing my friends. Some acoustic tiles on ceilings would make all the difference and do not have to be obvious.
