Ampéli in Camden

素材の味を活かしながら、色々な組み合わせで舌にも目にも楽しく美味しいお料理。 ギリシャ産のseabassは、ふっくら焼き上げられていてオリーブオイルとの相性抜群。ギリシャ料理は好きなので日本でもギリシャレストランには行きますが、こちらは独特な感性で進化させたお料理が楽しめます。南欧の料理が好きな方は是非行ってみて下さい。オススメです！ 初め入口横の椅子の狭い席に通されましたが、boss風の女性にお願いしたらソファ席に変えてくれたのでお料理もワインもゆっくり楽しめました。

Not your usual Greek restaurant menu, but interesting and enjoyable. However, I'm not sure that the novelty value justifies paying the high prices.

the food is good but not served hot. VAT is not included in the price on the menu, they don't say what % the service charge is and then then add £1.oo charity donation, without asking you. So you end up paying about 30% more then expected

Normally I do not write the bad reviews, mostly I do not write them at all, but OMG the service what we have received today was actually shocking. Do not get me wrong as last 10 years I spent in hospitality industry in very busy environment, also in management roles and 5* properties and I know exactly how hard and tricky the business can be, but that is not enough to explain the service we had received today. If you do not like your job - simply just don’t do it! Since we walked in we had a feeling of being very unwelcome and they lady who served us made us feel very uncomfortable. I think she might be in kinda manager role as on the bill appeared as Bar Manager Fran and wasn’t dressed as the rest of the staff - which made this even worse to receive this kind of service from the person which is above others. Anyway we have been refused to get her name. Literally she threw the glasses and water on our table and never came back to us to check if the food was ok - one piece of chicken was actually undercooked but didn’t want to ruin rest of my evening by complaining about such a stupid thing. But this definitely NOT what you would expect from Michelin restaurant. The other person which we complained to about the service also dressed differently said that only what he can do is to apologise - very enough. But just to make it clear we did not complaint about the Tabasco. Our complaint was about the service we had received, as we have heard you talking that the complaint was because of not having Tabasco. That’s absolutely not true. Whole experience lead us to asked first time to remove the service charge from the bill. Definitely I would not recommend this place at all and will not return.

The three stars are not for the food which was largely excellent (the roasted yellow beetroot as main course was, however, unexceptional). There were several tables occupied outside, with two occupied inside (including us). There were two serving staff on and they seemed to be responding without clear thought, and it felt a bit chaotic. Thus a "snack" to eat whist we were choosing arrived after 15 minutes, whilst a "special starter" arrived after the main courses had been served! "Oh, you wanted as a starter" the waiter remarked (er, yes - this is not a 'small plates' restaurant - starters are listed as "starters", mains as "mains"). The wine list is interesting and entirely Greek

walked in off the street and were, as it happened, lucky to get a table. There was a reaon the place filled up Cocktails were excellent the sea breem appetizer was brilliantly seasoned - melt in your mouth Squid and Lamb chop were beautifully seasoned and the salad with the lamb, amazing good service, happy place dont order the bowl of nuts

We visited for lunch and had the set menu - 2 courses for £25 and 3 courses for £30. The food was excellent - it is not 100% authentic Greek, as they have experimented with some of the dishes but the result is always delicious. The size of the portions was also very satisfactory, which was great and a rare thing in sophisticated restaurants like this. The service was attentive and efficient. Note that the food takes a while to arrive, as much seems to be made fresh. All in all, this is a pricey restaurant but definitely worth visiting.

Excellent service and food. Felt very welcome even though my dinner guest was exceedingly late. No pressure or stress and they accommodated us as much as possible. We enjoyed every dish and the wine was delicious

We ate here last night on a visit to London. I’m unable to go inside places due to a completely dysfunctional immune system so we sat outside on a cold January night. It was wonderful. Lorraine the manager was so friendly, helpful and welcoming. We had little heaters on and also blankets if needed. The food was divine, so different and tasty. We are vegetarian and had 2 of the snack dishes and 3 of the vegetarian plates to share. It was all amazing, and complemented my a couple of glasses of lovely Greek wine as recommended. I will definitely go back when we next visit. There was something magical about being outside and cosy ( but many may not think so ). I sadly have no choice but one day will go in. I can’t wait to eat this delicious food again.

We had an excellent meal at this sophisticated modern Greek restaurant, which in no way resembles the taverna-style Greek restaurants all over London. Yes, the meal was expensive and the venue can be rather noisy. But the quality of the food and wine, and the friendly service, were outstanding.

We had a wonderful dinner here, enjoying the warm atmosphere, the excellent food with such a nice array of flavors, and the attentive service. Unlike other reviews, we had no problem with the noise (on the ground floor), but we did ask to be moved from the basement as the atmosphere wasn't as nice as upstairs. I would definitely go back and recommend to others.

We had a table of 10 and had the 'Feast Menu'. The food was absolutely divine - the flavours were fantastic and the portion sizes, extremely generous. The wine sommelier was exceedingly helpful and she helped us choose wines based on our (limited!) knowledge of non-Greek wines. I have already booked again as I was so impressed. The service was also excellent.

Very buzzy Greek restaurant in trendy Charlotte Street. Food is good and service attentive but portions are small and wine list is crazily over-priced mediocre Greek wines. The restaurant was so noisy it was difficult to hear what people sat next to and opposite me were saying.

I was very happy that we could eat outside, the service was really good and the foot was excellent. Really good balance of flavours in the octopus orzo, the sujuk croquettes we’re so light and the cauliflower with whipped feta was excellent especially as I don’t like feta.

Really great food and wine, friendly quick service and relaxed atmosphere. Stumbled across Ampeli and are really glad we did. Highly recommend the octopus, the croquettes and the doughnuts,

Good food, relaxed pace and great advice about the menu from the staff. Worth sitting upstairs for quieter space to chat

Best dishes: feta dip, beetroot, souvlaki, hispi cabbage. Humous was bland, as were the prawns. Food was generally good but the portions were small for the price.

The three of us were looking for a nice sit down Saturday lunch in the Charlotte St area and stumbled across Ampeli. As we had not booked, fortunately for us there was a table free, and we were sat in the higher level mezzanine which...

Found this place by accident but so incredibly glad we did. The food is outstanding (definitely try the ceviche), the wine excellent, and the service impeccable. All four of us were blown away by everything. A new favourite!

Outstanding Greek food and wine in this new gem on Charlotte Street, superbly managed by the experienced Lorraine, this is a slick operation and everything is of a high quality and standard

Very welcoming staff. Really good food - particularly enjoyed the feta dip, crispy squid and prawn saganaki. Had a lovely carafe of Greek wine which was delicious. Super restaurant.

Newly opened a month ago and not a kink in sight! The menu is Greek with a twist - lots of sharing plates and meaty mains with unique flavors and seasonings. I love that the wine list is Greek wines only - including retsina that...

I visited Ampeli for business lunch. The menu had a nice mixture of Turkish, Greek, Lebanese sounding named dishes and looked impressive. The Greek waiter was ready to help in both Greek and English. The actual establishment on 3 levels had a nice ambience and...
