Retsina Mousaka - Ealing

First time back in 10 years, used to be very regular but moved away from area. Place is just as lovely as ever, Angelo and his staff are so welcoming and the food is as tasty and generous as ever. The meat meze is still hilariously large, multiple courses of delicious homemade greek/Cypriot flavours. From dips to mains, salad to sausages, everything bursts with flavour. The kleftiko fell off the bone, and if you want a solo main instead of the sharing platter I’d go for that. Roast potatoes galore and well-seasoned rice. All washed down with a Mateus rosé that somehow tastes fresh and sparkly in this restaurant more than anywhere outside Cyprus. I don’t know what the weird bad reviews/chef behaviour was that is mentioned in a couple of reviews, but even if true I’d say everyone has had a bad day since covid and you never know what people are dealing with. I’ve been here maybe 50 times now in the last 20yrs and it’s my wife and I’s favourite place. It’s busy because everyone loves it, but don’t let that put you off! Try it while it’s there, it will never be replaced.

Very traditional old school Greek restaurant in both decor and menu. Greek salad starter was great. Main courses were good and absolutely huge. Seemed to have a lot of happy regular customers

Good Greek food, very well cooked. My swordfish was delicious as was my wife's lamb and the protions were generous. The rice was highly flavoured with juniper berry and I think cinnamon bark but we were disappointed with the potatoes which appear to have been boiled potatoes that had been deep fried. Last time we were in Ealing we went at the advertised opening time of 5pm and it was closed. We turned up at 5.50pm this time and they were just opening. We were impressed by how many customers seemed to be regulars which is just as well as the decore and uncomfortable chairs don't give a good first impression. We will return nonetheless.

Haven’t been there in over 20 years . Went with friends and family , the food was amazing, 3 of us had a mezze , and 2 picked of menu . The staff was really lovely . One of the best Greek meals I’ve had ! Definitely be back

The menu looked good and the smells were enticing. However, the chef was being so ghastly to the lady assisting that I couldn't bear to eat here. Having shoved a menu in my hand, I received no word of welcome nor it didn't matter to him that a customer could clearly here him effing and shouting at his staff. Only two tables were seated. It wasn't busy to warrant such stress. Not the way to treat staff, and you lost this customer as a direct result.
