Shields Road might not be the first place you'd think of when looking for a Greek taverna, but this place is a real gem. Fantastic food, relaxed atmosphere, friendly owner and staff, and ridiculously good value. We'll definitely be back soon.
Delicious authentic "homemade" Greek food & great service! Great value for money. The owners & staff are lovely, cheerful & helpful & make you feel at home! I loved the Greek music,too!
I definitely recommend it! I'm so happy to discover this little gem!
Fab place, great people excellent food and Retsina to die for, just the perfect Mediterranean experience for a dismal November in Newcastle.
Came here last night for the first time, staff were lovely, food and atmosphere were fantastic. Felt like I was in holiday. Thankyou for a lovely meal and night. Would definatley recommend .5* �����
Just like a Taverna in Mainland Greece but in of all places Byker which is totally unexpected and the food and service is fantastic and much better than the places in Newcastle city centre I've visited
A real Greek place used by the ex patriot Greek Community in Newcastle with authentic Greek dishes that are fit for Zeus Apollo Hera Aphrodite and the old Greek Gods as its out of this world food wise and divine

Great little place. Very good value for money. Extremely tasty food. And almost best of all... the owners and staff were amazing as well. Happy to discuss the food and constantly smiling. Can't wait to try the grilled feta cheese recipe they were more than happy to describe for me. Hoping to be back soon!
Wonderful Greek food cooked fresh a lovely little authentic Greek taverna well worth a visit if you love everything greek. A warm welcome is given by Gianni and his family , very reasonable prices recommend the meze. Epharisto polo. Bob walker and family
Gorgeous meal here yesterday, massive amount of food. Plenty of choice on the menu, all reasonably priced. Very friendly service. Will definitely be back for more.
Just tried a takeaway from here the day after our holiday in Crete
Unfortunately I'm now going to have to become a regular visitor to the restaurant to work my way through the menu.
I love food that makes you smile and this place certainly did it was beautiful
Close the blinds from the fact you are on Byker high street (and I live in Byker so that's not a criticism) and you could be in Greece. A warm Greek welcome, food not speedy but served as it should be when on holiday over conversation and hospitality and savoured with a drink in between. Lovely food and at a great price. will definitely be back.
Really nice but I think the staff need to be a little more aware of the customers ! Food was lovely just not very good customer service ! Don't let that put you off tho it was late when I called in last night ! Well worth a visit !
This place is amazing was there last night the food was excellent the atmosphere was great the staff are great hade a great night
1st time trying Greek food with the better half. Absolutely beautiful food, fantastic service and ambience. Will most definitely be back and recommending to friends and colleagues
Lovely food,ordered my favourite lamb dish..prompt delivery so food is still hot.
Great food, friendly people, and low prices... they tick all my boxes, and I'm proud to say I've been here twice and will visit everytime I'm in NCL.
Living in the Mediterranean region for almost 7 years, I fancy myself an expert on the cuisine...delusional, I'll admit ;)
Was quite impressed with every single dish that was served...and there was quite a menagerie of cheesy, savoury, sweet, sour, crunchy, crispy, juicy, saucy, meaty, grilled, baked, fried, toasted, and all other manners of gastronomic delights.
When we thought we couldn't take the oncoming barrage of food anymore, we'd just take a sip of ouzo, tsipouro or metaxa, and get back on the offensive! We weren't taking any prisoners (doggy bag) that day!!
Was pretty puzzled when the cheque arrived...wasn't sure if they missed a zero ;) No wonder the locals love the place!!
Very friendly and helpful staff, very nice and tasty meals made from fresh products. Definitely will return.
Simply outstanding, gyros was excellent.
Very welcoming owners, a family run business. Best in Newcastle hand down for Greek food.
Very authentic and homemade style Greek cuisine. The service is top class as the place is run by wonderful people.
I love, love, love this little family-run Greek restaurant! People who run the restaurant are also the ones serving, cooking, chatting and everything else! Tremendously hard work from both of them. Food is just WOW! I tried pretty much everything from the menus and I can't pick one meal that I like the best. I just like them all! Always fresh. Always prepared with care and right there from proper ingredients! Just brilliant!
Thank you, you lovely, dear people who care so much ❤️
Absolutely perfect in every way, I couldn't recommend this anymore!
You need to go here for an amazing experience of food from a different part of the globe, the customer service is the best I've ever seen and you can always have a friendly conversation with the staff there, they are the best!
I would give 10 out of 5 stars if possible!!
Amazing! The owners are so so friendly and accommodating. We dined yesterday as a large party for a birthday and the food and service was excellent. Thank you so much. We will be back!
We went out to the Greek Grill as a family, by recommendation of my daughter. We had a fantastic time. Beautiful food, very reasonably priced and we were received with such a warm welcome. If you like Greek food and are nearby, don't hesitate to go there. I highly recommend the place.
Very nice food, and staff. Went there with Greek friends, they orders few starter to share, it was very tasty.
Fresh ingredients have been used for salads, Halloumi starter was nice as well.
Nice wine, in general great experience, would definitely go again.
Note: they only accept cash payment, so take cash.

Came here with work friends and will definitely be returning!! An absolute gem, family run, impeccable service with delicious food. Brought to mind all of the beautiful Greek tavernas ive visited that were tucked away in tiny villages in the mountains, especially when I had an authentically brewed Greek coffee to finish the meal with. I only wish they were open at lunchtime so I could get Greek coffees all the time as I work nearby. :) 100 out of 10!!
