5 /5 Ishan Issadeen: I visited for dinner on a Saturday. The venue had striking decor, giving off upmarket Mediterranean vibes. Very nice. Tables were well spaced out as well.
We were 2 adults and 2 kids and between us ordered the bread basket, hummus, spicy feta, bluefin tuna, Greek salad, lamb moussaka, lamb belly skewer and lobster giouvetsi (orzo). For dessert we tried the donuts, orange cake and the semolina custard with strawberries. The food was generally quite enjoyable. Favourites included the spicy feta, lamb belly and the lobster orzo. Their version of a Greek salad was the only item which I wasn’t too sure about. Portion sizes were larger than implied by our server so it did end up being a bit too much food.
Service was very friendly and initially very speedy, but it did get a bit harder to get attention towards the end of the meal when the place was busier. Still not too bad though and I did like the fact that many of the servers were of Greek origin. The bill for our meal came to £343 of which £86 was spent on drinks. Definitely pricey but not out of kilt for a plush new venue in this part of town. This visit rounded up an unintended triple header of Greek meals, after visiting Pyro and Lagana in the days prior, and all 3 places are great in their own way but Myrtos did feel like the most authentic of the lot (albeit also the most upmarket) - I would happily return in future.
