Harden's survey result
Summary
“We lived in Greece for 10 years and this comes recommended if you want authentic Greek food and the cramped ambience of a taverna (although without the authentic fluorescent lighting!)” – this Hillgate Village haunt has “beautifully cooked and presented Greek cuisine” that’s super-sophisticated by holiday-taverna standards. “The small space and number of diners means it can be noisy”, although it has “an excellent back terrace for sunny days”. Top Menu Tip – “leave room for the loukoumades (honey doughnuts) for dessert”.

For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
