Gèa Chelsea -
Dominiki Nikolopoulou As a Greek living in London, Gea is by far my favourite Greek restaurant. I’ve already dined there twice, and I still can’t get over their tirokafteri (spicy feta dip) — one of the best I’ve ever tasted! Another thing that really stands out is the generous portion sizes, something you don’t usually find in London. The space is very cozy, and the soft Greek music in the background makes you feel right at home, especially if you’re Greek. But the best part came at the end of our meal. When they gave us the dessert menu, I spotted a dessert my grandmother used to make. I couldn’t believe it, and I couldn’t wait to try it. Not only was it absolutely delicious, but it tasted exactly the way she used to make it. That moment truly touched me and made me feel closer to home than I have in a long time. We also had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, and it was lovely to see such a warm, family-run business. My only small feedback would be that, even though the service was very warm, it does need a bit of improvement in terms of interaction, and to offer a slightly larger portion of bread, especially for a cuisine where bread plays such an important role. Overall, I highly recommend Gea if you enjoy good, authentic and of course Greek food. I can’t wait for my parents to visit London so I can take them back to Gea for another amazing experience!!
