I recently dined at El Greco in Sheffield, and it was an amazing experience. The ambiance was charming with a touch of Greece, and the staff were welcoming. The menu offered a great variety of authentic Greek dishes. I particularly enjoyed their mixed grill, which was rich and flavorful. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were reasonable. Overall, El Greco is a fantastic choice for anyone craving delicious Greek cuisine in Sheffield. I'll definitely be returning!
This is about as good as you can get in England for an authentic Greek taverna experience. Great food, a glass roof area for when we actually have sun.
The Gyro souvlaki here is great in all the variations they do along with its cousin the skepasti. I'm yet to try other dishes here but will definitely be coming back.
Warnings for locals to consider:
This is a genuine Greek restaurant, staff will not always constantly check up on you like English restaurants.
It is the Greek way to be more relaxed and you may need to ask for what you want or shout them over politely.
To address anyone complaining in other reviews about some food being microwaved. This is likely true and typical even in Greece.
Heavy slow cooking dishes like Moussaka or Pastitsio are generally made in the mornings as they take hours to prepare. If you want these dishes fresh you will need to ask when they are made and avoid if reheated food bothers you.
Otherwise the majority of fish, meat and vegetable dishes are made fresh on the spot and are delicious.
I strongly recommend this restaurant despite the perceived downsides. All round a great experience in Greek dining.
Lovely Greek restaurant with friendly service. Portion sizes that make you wish you'd worn your elasticated trousers. Really tasty. This was our first time here but it won't be our last. I didn't think to take the photo until I was half way through the giant mixed grill...
