Alexander The Great in Camden

Their lamb shank was perfectly cooked as always. Very welcoming staff with efficient service. Great location as well close to Camden Town.

Πήγαμε την μέρα των Χριστουγέννων. Το φαγητό ήταν υπέροχο, η εξυπηρέτηση άψογη και το προσωπικό ευγενέστατο.... Σίγουρα όταν θα πάω Λονδίνο ξανά θα το επισκεφτώ πάλι

Quality food, great venue 👌. Lamb shank was perfect. Very cosy, comfortable, and welcoming staff. Highly recommend this venue.

Not crowded, best Greek food I have eaten, prices are very fair. The owner was kind and good to my wife and I. Same with other customers.

Great Greek food for a very reasonable price. Easy to get to, as it is around the corner from Mornington Crescent station. I went with my husband this week and was very pleasantly surprised by the varied menu and great service. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Amazing food, super juicy chicken with great flavor, also the lamb. The service was extremely good and the food came super quickly. Cheap and cheerful, awesome owners!

The food was very good and the service too. It's a bit cramped in the restaurant, but you can sometimes talk to your neighbors. Highly recommended!

Had the giant prawns, which were good.. Moussaka was very good.. Service excellent..Could do without the Christmas music, but that's just me.

Food was lovely. Service was great and the room downstairs was brilliant for our work party. Thank you

Went there my birthday and had a great time. The food was really tasty, full of flavour, all with a touch of funny and refreshing Greek atmosphere. The staff was professional and friendly, making the night brilliant. Definitely a gem to visit!

Alexander is a solid choice for anyone looking for a good Greek restaurant. The service was friendly and attentive, making for a pleasant dining experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared, with classic Greek dishes that stood out. It’s a great option for locals looking for a reliable spot to enjoy authentic Greek cuisine. Overall, we had a very good experience and would recommend it.

Excellent restaurant, we were during our holidays in London, a very nice welcome from Benji Family place where you feel good Excellent food I recommend ++

It is a small intimate warmly decorated restaurant with a very friendly and caring staff. The food was good. Vegan Dolmades was my favourite dish. Houmous was delicious. The BBQ lamb was a bit too dry and lacked seasoning and spices. The prawns were very very good. Atmosphere could easily be a 5 but sadly a large office party of mainly loud middle aged men fresh out of the pub felt it was necessary to shout about how merry they were......very obnoxious. I would call and check if they have a large booking before going. Thank God we were almost done. I was tempted to ask the group to shut up! Oh, the pistachio cake was really good.

A charming restaurant arranged on the street and basement level serving lovely Greek food with delightful and kind service.

A great birthday experience witch delicious food and amazing atmosphere. All made better by the excelente service of Basilio and all the staff. I'll definitely come back.

On vacation in London, we were received by Benji, wonderful welcome and good food, a warm moment, I recommend this place.

Came from Hampshire to eat here on recommendation of 'GaryEats'. A rather disappointing experience overall. Waiters were more interested in chatting to young ladies on a corner table (for over 30 minutes) than helping the waitress or checking on how our meals were. Food was good, but not outstanding. We were not asked if we would like sweets or drinks after our mains and had to chase the bill. No complimentary shot and/or Baclava which Gary was informed everyone received - not just him because it was being filmed for tv.

What a rich Greek in the middle of Candem. Everything we ordered was spectacular: the moussaka, the lamb,... And the top service, super friendly. 100% recommended.

Such a lovely and authentic place with amazing food! Very cozy atmosphere and lovely and attentive service. I loved that sweet treat with my coffee at the end of the evening, thank you guys!

Very friendly team and delicious food

Amazing food and friendly service in a picturesque atmosphere! We had dinner here with my wife and had an excellent evening! The owner and the staff are great and the food is amazing (this is real, good Greek food, just like back home, which is rare to find in London) We will certainly be coming back again!

Delicious dinner. We had booked at the restaurant in front (Andromeda) but they did not honour our booking, so we tried here. We were very positively surprised! Despite having a busy night they found us a table very quickly. Food was very good, particularly the vine leaves (dolmadakia). The atmosphere is charming, with traditional wall and a beautiful plant climbing on the walls. We even tried a traditional Cretan digestive which was delicious! We will certainly be back!

Andres was very attentive and even have us a dessert for the birthday of our mother. The food was delicious and more than we could eat.

This was the best restaurant in London! The food, wines, place and attendance… everything is so incredible! Most go place

Had a lovely birthday there, the food and service is amazing! They even sang happy birthday and played music for us!

Eileen took great care of us! And the food was great

Fantastic food and brilliant service. Highly recommended if your looking for Greek cuisine in Camden.

Best value for money, best taste and cosy atmosphere in Camden Town!

An amazing little restaurant! We discovered it by chance a couple of years ago and had such a lovely experience. The atmosphere is very cozy, the staff friendly and welcoming and the food was absolutely delicious. Alexander the Great has definitely made our list of places to dine whenever we’re in London!

Great place for a tasty Greek food! Loved the atmosphere with Greek music and service :) food was delicious with an amazing saganaki❤️

Tonight we had an excellent meal and the service was wonderful. Would go again and recommend to others.

Amazing food and service. As if you are in Greece ❤️

We went to this restaurant for a family gathering to get together and celebrate birthdays. The atmosphere was cosy and welcoming. We ordered a few starters to share between us (9 people) and there was plenty for everyone. The main courses were also generous size and delicious quality. The Alexander vegetarian platter was amazing! We booked an early table but never felt rushed that we should vacate for a later sitting. When Eileen found out it was our birthday she was excited to celebrate and brought out a cake with sparklers and candles. She treated us like friends even though it was our first visit there. Its not local for us but I hope we will visit again .

The best restaurant in London! Very kind people

This place was great, very friendly staff and nice ambiance. The food was delicious and the portions were big.

We have been first time here and we had such a great time.The service was welcoming especially the waitress Eileen is very friendly and made us laugh too which is a nice extra touch. The traditional greek food was delivious:-) Definitely we will come back again!

Great food, service, and staff. Pleasant dining experience

Amazing food, great atmosphere, incredible service. This was our first time trying Greek food and we were very impressed!!

A truly inspiring Greek restaurant. The food was excellent, the location was so authentic - we really enjoyed it. Special thanks for this unique experience to the two absolutely lovely and professional ladies: Mary and Eileen. We loved it and we loved you. We can recommend the restaurant and you both from the bottom of our hearts. And: a secret tipp: celebrate your birthday there: what a feeling, when you are the one people celebrate

Alexander the Great offers an authentic taste of Greece right in the heart of London. The service is impeccable, and the food is simply divine. Their meze platter is a fantastic way to start, offering a delightful array of hot and cold dishes. The grilled octopus is a standout, tender and flavorful. If you're looking for a truly authentic Greek dining experience, Alexander the Great is the place to be.

Really good service and so kind staff! It was a lovely experience! Really tasty food as well!

Great host. 7 of us for lunch with the maze sharing platters. Highly recommend

Had my birthday here. Amazing food, amazing staff, amazing service. Great prices! Will come back

Went for my daughter's 18th birthday. A family of 9. The food was amazing and delicious and the portions were decent too. We arranged to bring a birthday cake and after the meal they brought it out and the whole restaurant joined in and sang happy birthday, the staff rang bells and blew horns. The whole evening was lovely. You definitely need to book in advance as the restaurant was full. Very well priced for the food and drinks that we got. Our host Maria was extremely helpful.

Bringing authentic Cypriot food to North London! - I had my 30th birthday here on Friday night and I couldn't have asked for a better resturant to host it in. From start to finish, the owners and staff (Maria) went above and beyond to make sure my party of 30 people had a night to remember from being so accommodating of dietary requirements to bringing out plates to smash and greek dancing for the cake. We had the meze (meat and veggie) which was 10/10. Thank you Alexander The Great Restaurant, a night to remember <3

Table was booked but told 15 minute wait after our booking time! Nobody that worked there seemed to have any interest in getting us seated or letting us know what was happening. Very poor service!! Went to greek restaurant across the road, lovely staff and made to feel very welcome. So glad we ended up across the road.

Eileen and Mary were awesome, legend has it they are the best in the business… The moussaka was the best I’ve ever had, I’m told that the Octopus was excellent as was the vegetarian moussaka. Our visit was relaxed and we didn’t feel rushed and our hosts looked after us very well indeed.

Had a family celebration here. Beautiful place, amazing food and even better service. It's brilliant when a restaurant makes you feel at home.

The restaurant is definitely worthy of the title of best Greek food in London! The food was delicious and the staff were incredibly hospitable. Will definitely be going back!

Truly amazing. Food & staff absolutely excellent. Highly recommended.

Very good attention. Fast service and everything we ate was very good. If you are in Camden don't hesitate to try eating at the

We visited on Saturday night. It was extremely busy but the staff were absolutely brilliant! Amazing food and atmosphere, will visit again when in London!

I bought takeaway food, and the food didn’t have any salt and they gave me the order without takeaway cutlery, how am I supposed to eat the food with my hands. Not worth the price on my opinion

I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant, and I was truly impressed. The dishes are rich in flavor and tradition, made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Every bite is an explosion of authentic flavors, honoring traditional cuisine. The service is outstanding: the staff is attentive, courteous, and always ready to meet any request. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, perfect for a relaxing and enjoyable evening. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a culinary Greek taste 😊

Gorg place, love the green decor with busts dotted around the room. There were little fish tanks with 1-2 fishes each. So cute. There’s two floors, ground and basement. I sat on the ground floor as a walk in with someone else. We ordered the mix meze dish which was filling for the two of us. We were going to order a starter, but it was going to have the same foods as the mix meze, so the server was very nice and pointed it out so we wouldn’t double order. The music was a bit loud in the evening and we sat near the stairs, but it was alright as I could hear the person opposite me if we slightly raise our voice. Food was yum!! A bit on the oiler side and would’ve been nicer to get a bit more veggies. Would go again, it was around £25 for the both of us, so £12.5 each.

Booked Alexander the Great for a 30th birthday meal with family and it exceeded expectations. We were a big group and our host Maria was fantastic in accommodating us throughout our time at the restaurant. The food and service was terrific and will definitely recommend and return!

Lovely early dinner at this cosy Greek restaurant. Shared meze starters, with chicken souvlaki, salad, white bait and halloumi for mains. Beautiful food, lovely atmosphere and great staff (especially Maria). Highly recommend a visit if you’re in Camden.

The service is amazing and the staff are so hospitable. The atmosphere is fabulous and the food is fantastic!! 10/10.

Cozy restaurant, friendly staff, huge portions of high quality - we are thrilled.

An address to recommend, excellent cuisine, friendly atmosphere+++

Had a great set lunch, very good value (£11.50 for 3 courses) and friendly staff.

I had a very good experience. The service was friendly and quick (being alone). I had hummus as starter then the plain lamb kebab with salad: that was huge!! The lamb was very good, the salad too (nice feta).

Food was delicious and service was fantastic, will definitely be back

Nice restaurant very busy. Lovely staff who couldn't do enough for us.

Perfect food, spotless shop, everything perfect

Wow. Beautiful cosy environment, warm atmosphere matched by the warmth of our host Maria. Was recommended the lamb or chicken bbq, couldn't decide, thankfully we got both. Incredible. Alexander souvlaki was incredible also. My only regret is I don't have a bigger belly to immediately eat it all again. Will definitely be back. Much love.

Friendly atmosphere and good food. On street parking only but not far from the tube.

Needed to grab lunch, no better place, sun was shining on us on outside table, perfect chicken souvlaki, highly recommended

I came in with a group of 11 people without prior warning and the staff were so lovely and accommodating. Absolutely delicious food and friendly waiters! 10/10 recommend

Moussaka-excellent! Clean. Comfortable. Great service!

Great place, we had a lovely experience there, great food, wonderful service and I thoroughly recommend it. Thank you all for looking after us yesterday. Five stars are really not enough.

Super nice service and free Champaign for 11 Champaign

Stelios the owner of this restaurant has set a precedent amongst his staff for inflating the bill,anybody eating and drinking at this establishment MUST check their bill----item by item,they will chat away to you and give you good service and half decent food,they may even offer you a 'free' drink 'on the house',they then present you with a hand written bill that IS NOT itemised and even if you think it's wrong by this time they've snared you and it's too embarrassing to challenge the bill and you don't want to spoil the evening---only last night when I did check the bill for only the 2 of us ,they had overcharged us by £30 !,they were full of empty apologies----I know this place of old but was hoping it had changed----obviously I won't be returning!.

Excellent quality food, and very large portions for the price. The treatment of the restaurant staff was perfect. Highly recommended!

Such a great meal and atmosphere. Well looked after by the hosts and food was top class! Great little taverna feel and vibe. Generous portions, good value.

Don’t listen to the boring guy talking about the loud music. This place has great food and great service all round for a great price! Keep up the great work

A fantastic find, a beautiful and atmospheric family run restaurant. Excellent food served by attentive and friendly staff. Family run businesses like this need supporting and are far more enjoyable than boring chains

A delightful place with great food. If you're lucky to be here on a sunny day there are some lovely outdoor tables. Special shout out for Benjy.

Amazing service, unreal food and just a great night out in London! Couldn't recommend more

Fish in aquarium. Wine in a glass. Food was superb. And the atmosphere was niaasss!

It was a gorgeous day. Everyone was super friendly especially Bengi and Kurtis. We had a beautiful birthday and can’t wait to return

Very good value restaurant with lovely service. They helped us make a surprise engagement unforgettable!

EXCELLENT FOOD EXCELLENT SERVICE Music was amazing and Kyriakos made sure everyone had a super time!!

Place was good. Good vibes, had music in the background which was a nice addition, not too loud either so can still have a good conversation. Food was good, got the tarama, tzatziki, halloumi, saganaki and the house mixed grill. All were good, my favourite was the house mixed, all meats were very very good and a big variety from sheftalia, souvlaki, loukaniko, lountza and more. Top quality food. Additionally, the service was great, extremely friendly staff, made me feel at home. And at the end they gave us complimentary ouzo. I definitely recommend this place if you want an authentic Greek experience.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this charming, family-owned restaurant, and it was a fabulous experience from start to finish. The food was delicious, with each dish bursting with flavour and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. You can taste the love and care that goes into the cooking. Whether you’re a fan of traditional comfort food or something a bit more adventurous, there’s something for everyone on the menu. The service was just as impressive as the food. The staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. You can tell it’s a family-run establishment by its genuine hospitality to every guest. They made us feel right at home and went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful dining experience. This restaurant is a gem if you’re looking for a place with delicious food, lovely service, and a cosy atmosphere. I can’t wait to return!

A warm and friendly atmosphere with beautiful decor, kind staff and delicious food! Would definitely recommend.

From the moment we set feet inside we felt the authenticity. The music, the aroma and the interior are all The Great. Neither did the food disappoint - portions are well made, quite generous and really tasty.

This restaurant is the best greek restaurant I have ever eaten in. The food, service and atmosphere is second to none. If you love greek food this is the place to visit.

Fabulous food and brilliant service. I highly recommend

Yesterday was my first time at this restaurant. The food was good, but the environment wasn't the best. I agree with a recent review...the music is too loud, and all the people were raising their voices to be heard over it. Considering the restaurant is quite small, the noise was unbearable. My friend and I left with headaches

The best fish I’ve had in London!! It’s a must try. Staff is very pleasant and helpful. I will definitely be going back😁

What a lovely restaurant. Big portions of really delicious fare. The bbq chicken was tender and the hslloumis really fresh. The owner is very hospitable, no wonder it's really popular. Wish they had more dessert options, but definitily will visit again.

This is my faith or sixth visit. Good as usual. I love the lamb joint a lot! It's tender and soft always. They are all good value.

Absolutely incredible experience. Food was the best I’ve eaten in the UK. Atmosphere was amazing, all staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Wouldn’t change a single thing.

We came here yesterday for a late lunch and the food was excellent, both starters and mains. The service was friendly and attentive despite a big party being hosted at the same time, and the outdoor seating was an absolutely perfect place to sit on a warmish Autumn day. Will definitely come again if we're in the area, and highly recommend to anyone else!

Great experience! The food was great in a very cozy environment!

I really don't write reviews, but it was such a bad memory that I wrote it down. We ate mezze for 2 people. All the other reviews here said it was delicious, but it was so salty that I couldn't tell if it was a taste that wasn't suitable for Asians or if they were serving salty food specifically to Asians. To be honest, there were a lot of foods that were so salty that it almost felt like racism. An elderly employee came by and asked if the taste was okay, but he just said it was okay. When I finished eating and paying, they added a service charge to the bill. I saw it wasn't on the menu. I was embarrassed and asked what this was, and he confidently told me that it was a service charge, so I figured I would understand and left. Looking at other reviews, it seemed like there was dessert as well, but I just left it because I was in a bad mood. I will never go again. I think I found a store worth paying 100,000 won for.

Keep trying to leave a review so this is my last try. Came here for dinner yesterday it was amazing incredible food wonderful service fabulous greek vibes just simply fantastic and super delicious food at excellent prices

One of the best restaurants in London! I've been coming here for over 20 years and it's still one if my favourites. If you fancy authentic Greek food, you must visit! But make sure you book in advance as it's very popular. Great atmosphere, great food, brilliant service!

Good atmosphere, proper Greek food. Great for big groups
