    It was quite crowded so we were on a very small table for two with not much room.a bigger table would have been much nicer. We noticed after we had paid bill an extra "optional "10% had been taken. We had no chouce in this! Sharp practice i think.

    Service and food was excellent. However the music in the restaurant was rather loud which makes having a conversation rather difficult. Nevertheless I would happily eat there again.

    The food was tasty and enjoyable. But the cheese cake was not pleasant both myself and Daughter left half. For what we had I thought was very expensive. Sorry but would not recommend.

    A little cautious as some reviews regarding staff and food were poor. Welcome and service was more than adequate. Food was tasty but this is tapas and dishes are quite/very small. Waitress recommended that 3 mains between 2 of us was enough. It wasn't for us so if you are medium to big eaters you will need 4 - 6 mains. Not bad value with the fork discount, not sure about full price. What was served was quite tasty.

    The food is good, variety of dips for the cold meze and some really tasty hot meze and sides. The sevice however is less than satisfactory. The staff are mostly acting like kids on a playground, managing to create an awkward high-school canteen like atmosphere. There is no sense of professionalism, no dress code for the staff, they laugh out loud, joke with each other in a very unprofessional way, generally creating a weird atmosphere that you would not expect in a restaurant.

    Staff were lovely food was good and very good value. We had. A table for two and all i would say is that the table is very small to accommodate multiple small dishes and drinks etc. We always seem to be shoved up a corner or against a wall, a window seat would be quite nice now and then

    The service was fine and the staff were very polite and helpful. The food!! My granddaughter who had the pork couldn’t eat it as it was so dry, the pieces were so small that why they were dry. My daughter’s lamb meatballs, very nice but only got two!! And my other granddaughters chicken once again was dry and cold. We had 4 Greek salads and 75% was tomato, and 3 olives plus a slice of feta!! I have visited before and couldn’t fault but today I was extremely disappointed.

    For a chain, The Real Greek are very much towards the top of the pile. Lovely fresh flavours, great plant based choices and just right service. Would be happy to dine here regularly.

    This was a great find to take our super 'fussy' daughter to. The food was really nice with good portion sizes. Lovely to have genuine Greek wine and beer too. Service was a little slow and because only the downstairs was open, it was quite noisy. However, the most successful meal out in a very long time more than made up for things!

    To get the real Greek feeling, needs Greek music in the background. Service and food was excellent.

    Pleasant place but quiet on our visit: imagine it would be noisy when busy. Enjoyed the food but it was nothing special so would have been far too pricey without the discount.

    I have eaten lunch here before and always enjoyed the food and found it exceptional value for money. I was excited to try the evening menu, but disappointed to find that, despite the price hike, it wasn't that different. A glitch in the system meant that our order didn't go through and we realised we ended up running out of time to eat because we had theatre tickets. The staff did everything they could to make amends with free drinks and knocking things off the bill.

    Staff were not attentive, food was nice but only warm! Waiter spilt bottle of drink, didn’t apologise and we had to mop up with napkins, he did return but there was no urgency.

    Great service, not too slow not too quick. We both had the £18.50 set menu, all dishes were delicious, although feta dip had slightly too much chilli for my taste.

    My partners meat was unfortunately burnt in parts and the portion size was minuscule compared to what we received in London for the same price. Would eat at the chain again however not at Norwich

    Lovely restaurant and friendly staff, however a service charge is automatically added to your bill, which I object to.

    Looked nice when we entered, The service was good. The meal itself was just okay. I had the lamb skewer with a Greek salad side. The lamb was too chewy as there was quite a bit of fat on them. The salad was cut into much to large chunks of peppers cucumber and tomatoes with a slice of Feta on top, but it had no real dressing on it or not a flavoured one. Greek salads I have had before have small chunks of mixed salad and Feta cheese and a tasty dressing- It was all a bit bland but edible.
