Arena Greek Restaurant in Brent

As Tina Turner would say, “ Simply The Best”……food, service and atmosphere first class. Highly Recommended.

lovely polite staff, so friendly! even better food! cant wait to come back again for a grate evening !

Amazing Greek Food!! They are having a Sicilian menu soon!!

Fantastic food and drinks! We especially loved the appetizers like the fried halloumi and stuffed mushrooms. The lamb kebab was delicious. Service was very very good. Thank you!

Wonderful place! Atmosphere is very cosy and service is excellent. Food was great too!!!! Definitely worth a visit!!!

Amazing food, lovely owner, great vegetarian selection and great vibe. Our local authentic Greek food

We had an amazing dining experience at Arena. The food was delicious, tasty cocktails and the perfect coffee to end it all off. Giovanni was polite, attentive and a fantastic host from start to finish! Cannot wait to come back (especially for the dips)

Service, food, and wine are the three points that anyone could spot in this Greek restaurant in the Wembley area. Highly recommend if you want to explore an original Greek tastes.

Came here to celebrate my kids birthday. Love the food and the hospitality. A very warm welcome from the staff. Freshly cooked mezze which is absolutely delicious. The kids had spaghetti Meatballs which was tasty.. A good place to dine with family . A surely must visit place to taste authentic greek food.

Friendly staff with great service

My Dad and I visited Arena completely 'on-spec' without a prior reservation but they were really accommodating. The food was delicious. Flavoured rice balls and Spanakopita to start, then a plate of calamari for the old man, and pork gyros for me. All delicious, authentic and great value. Service was friendly, attentive without being intrusive and they even dealt with my Dad's very specific coffee request (don't ask)

An authentic little Greek restaurant. Not too expensive for what it is, Greek and Cypriot wine and beer. Very nice baklava.

Nice little unassuming Greek restaurant. It's been there over 30 years! Doesn't look much from the outside but it's lovely inside. Nice choice of typical Greek food. Friendly service and was offered ouzo afterwards! Worth paying a visit if you're at Wembley for an event rather than the big chain restaurants. Go local or lose them.

Set menu before seeing Coldplay at Wembley. Lovely food, great location for events and friendly staff. Definitely worth a visit.

Very welcoming and friendly. Good pipping hot food, and really tasty. Avoid the big restaurant chains and support the local restaurants. You won’t be disappointed. Oh and if never tried, be sure to have a glass of Metaxa Brandy.

We had the pleasure of eating here last night as a walk in. The food is fantastic and the staff are excellent. Browsing h the menu everything was fairly priced with nothing overly expensive I would like to recommend some dishes but to be honest everything we had was delicious and clearly very fresh. Lamb cutlets - delicious King prawns - delicious Sea bass - delicious Chicken Souvlaki - delicious As a local resident I would urge others to visit this restaurant as we have very few actual self owned / family type restaurants left here, there are all big chain restaurants with no soul. I will certainly be returning here soon Fabulous restaurant

We are here last night as a walk in at 6pm. The staff and owner treated us as friends and were so helpful and polite. The menu is fairly priced with nothing too expensive. The food is exceptional and clearly very fresh. Everything we all ate was delicious. It is a lovely change to the awful chain restaurants that are everywhere in Wembley now to dine in a small friendly self owned restaurant. I would recommend this place to everyone. Best restaurant in Wembley by a mile

I took my daughter here before a gig and handed a set menu of £22.50 each for a starter and main which was absolutely fine. We were sat by the window but my seat was next to a fridge so every time the rude waiter needed to get beer out I was bashed in the back. We ordered the calamari to start which was rubbery and hard to cut through served with a side salad which wasn’t fresh. Mains were chargrilled chicken, which were more like burnt to a crisp and I could barely cut through served on dry rice with a blob of tomato sauce with absolutely no flavour and old crusty potatoes which had obviously been cooked previously served on the same day old salad. It was a massive disappointment as we were looking forward to sampling some authentic Greek food. It’s safe to say the set menu needs to be re thought by the management to prevent further disappointment from other customers.

Very welcoming and sat us down (even without a booking) Unfortunately the dishes were only a set ‘event’ 2 courses £22.50 Felt rushed in and out, chicken had to go back due to not being cooked, but the chef came out to apologise about the mess up Recommend , but probably not before a gig or on event day

My friend and I wanted to try this spot. We came in to have to be seated and then a lady hurried us out in a disrespectful way and said it was closed, we came at 9:30 and the closing time was 11pm.

Excellent food, very friendly staff, would recommend this restaurant 100%. We were not rushed all even though it was busy.

Dropped in with my Dad, 'on-spec' after a football match at Wembley, as we wanted to let traffic die down. The food was fantastic, the service friendly and attentive without being intrusive and really amenable to my Dad's very specific coffee request (don't ask).

amazing food at great prices - the owner and staff are wonderful

When you walk place this restaurant, it looks like a shop front , but an excellent restaurant, with great service and a good choice on the menu. Try it

Great valentine's meal. And the Mastika to finish was spot on

Great service, average food. Rare steak was more of a medium rare, a complimentary drink for valentine's Day was nice, however the calamari was chewy and wasn't crispy at all.

Only somebody who has never experienced any other food in their life could possibly enjoy this.

One of my favourite restaurants. Jimmy and his team always makes you feel welcomed and loved. Delicious Greek food that is clearly made with love ❤️

Food was good and friendly staff

Excelent service , a family traditional restaurant. And the food was exceptional. Eell recommended, hope to return again.

Had a lovely meal, staff were very friendly and most certainly go back 😀

Meal was outstanding and the service was first class... would definitely recommend to anybody in the area 😁

Amazing homemade food and great prices! We loved that restaurant, I can't wait to go back . Thank you

Good food, good service nice family place.

Ordered food via deliveroo and everything that arrived was stale and old. We will be lucky if we don’t get sick. Was not expecting this with the high ratings. I know these are difficult times but serving food that is far from fresh is not right.

Amazing food, great variety of vegetarian meals. Generous portion with friendly service. Definitely a local restaurant looking out for its local community. Absolutely going be in our regular rotation of restaurants

Definitely one of mine and my girlfriends favourites! Genuine hospitality, attentive and freindly servers, always jolly owner. Can't recommend any dish, as everything we tried so far was equally dellicious, so really just pick any item from the menu and you'll be good. Well, bruschetta from the starter menu is one thing i got hooked on so hard, that eversince I tried it - I never gave any other starter a go. Usually not too busy, which is a plus for customers, as service is more attentive and environment isn't too noisy. Surely great alternative for a pre-SSE Arena event meal as opposed to overcrowding and therefore glacially slow chain restaurants of LDO.

super great local family business

Five friends and I (in line with the current rule of 6) ate at this delightful family run greek restaurant on Saturday evening after visiting the nearby Wembley theatre (for the impressive Sleepless: A musical). The minute you walk inside the restaurant you feel you...

Lovely atmosphere. Food is delicious! The Baclava here is the best baclava I've ever tried! Will come back!

Great food, but service ceased to exist once a large group of their friends/regulars arrived.

Such a warm, friendly welcome and a warm, traditional Greek restaurant with some of the nicest homemade food I’ve had! Even after consuming the massive meze between the 3 of us, we left feeling satisfied but not heavy. And the price is criminally low for such amazing food. Make sure to tip these guys handsomely with what you save as it’s worth it! The calamari was crispy and light, rather than chewy. The dips were fresh as if they were made this morning by hand. The lamb shank fell off the bone. Tender meat all round. And the halloumi was proper not rubbery rubbish. Even the wine was nice. Five stars from us all!

By far the best restaurant, No just In Wembely but around the area’s,This place will be definitely my favourite my best place for everything ,Customer service is 10 out of 10 I just forgot about the most important thing the food who else can do better than incredible Jimmy thank you so much,I’m glad I have been eating there and looking forward for many other dinners thank you very much All the best guys.

Yay! Open again! So happy to go back to ARENA! Warm pitta bread & houmous starters.. mmmmh I had my favourite- Chicken shish & salad (with extra onions!) My friend Jackie had amazing giant prawns & salad. Great to be back! Lovely friendly service, & Jimmy, the owner, is so welcoming. Let's support our local restaurants! Liz & Jackie 🤗

Came across this restaurant while staying in Wembley, the food was delicious and the prices were very reasonable with excellent service. Would highly recommend.

Excellent homely restaurant and friendly customer service !!!

Beautiful restaurant, lovely people, delicious food at a very reasonable price. Felt really looked after, nothing was too much trouble. This place deserves more customers.

My favourite Greek restaurant, the owner is very friendly and the food is wonderful.

Great variety of food for family and friends. Good for small and large groups. Location is also great and not too far from train station at Wembley Park.

It is a big place and , nice and clean but the prices..a bit sceptical..

£20 for a two-course meal with 6 or 7 choices per course - the food was excellent quality and highly enjoyable. Drinks very reasonably priced with attentive and very friendly staff.

The website advertises a 3 course event day menu for £20, when we arrived the menu we were given was for a 2 course menu for £20 - and some of the items had changed. When we pointed out the difference to the waiter he...

Great little restaurant, lovely ambiance. The staff were very friendly and the food was delicious. I had the hummus for starter and the sea bass was so light and tasty. Not to expensive, well worth the visit.

We were in Wembley for a concert but didn’t want a chain restaurant so we checked out trip advisor for a restaurant nearby, and this was one we chose because we love Greek food. So glad we did!! Great food and the staff were very...

I made this booking because the restaurant is close to Wembley Stadium, where we were going to see Bon Jovi in concert on Friday 21st June 2019 - and because I love Greek food! I had made a booking online via OpenTable but had to...

A very warm and welcoming restaurant. The owner and staff could not have been more helpful. This place has the feel of a continental holiday. The food was delicious and swiftly served with no hurry to move us on . Certainly a cut above the...

Fantastic Greek restaurant, booked here before a concert at Wembley stadium and was not disappointed, the food was to die for and the friendly service was fantastic , next time I’m at Wembley I will be certainly booking up again

This was a truly great restaurant experience. Good food, efficient and friendly staff and everything very reasonably priced. Went onto Trip advisor to decide where to go whilst staying in Wembley. This was such a good choice. Had the meze for 2 and it was...

We visitors here last night in readiness of football today! Food was excellent, very traditional, well presented and excellent value for money. Great atmosphere and would have loved to go back tonight but they are closed on a Sunday evening! Highly recommwnded

Lovely family-feel place. Great food - especially the flatbreads.

I stay at Wembley frequently with work. There are the usual chain restaurants nearby. These lack authenticity. So we searched for something different and came across this Greek restaurant. The food was absolutely divine. We ordered the sharing platter. It was such good value and...

We came here for a meal prior to the FA Cup semi at Wembley, and it was very good indeed. Standard Greek fare, but plenty of it, decent atmosphere and a very friendly host. Absolutely nothing to complain about and we will go back next...

The Arena must be one of the longest running restaurants in Wembley if not the the longest, that must say something in itself! A lovely venue for a couple dining, a small wedding party or anything in-between. we have also used them for their catering service. Always happy to see them, super service always and such a great Greek welcome (as well as the food)!

Second visit and still great for a tasty bite to eat before a gig. Good food, wine and friendly service. Apparently it’s been running for 43years. Will be back again.

We had a great meal there. Friendly service and very reasonably priced too.

Full of surprises with xmas party

This is a nice place to be and very friendly. The food is fine,cooked simply and can be quite tasty.

It's a lovely place!The kitchen is perfect!!!

Nice staff. Clean. Food could do improove . Lack of seasoning. Bit disapointed. I would not go back. We had stiuffed vineleafe. Straight from jar. Obergine dip very soggy. Halumi big chunks little grilled. Spagetti reheated with sauce swimming in water. Not really to the detail and wasnt busy. Bit of Love and this place would be amazing but its just ok.

Mother in laws Birthday attended by 35 people,Jimmy and his staff could not do enough for us.This is a restaurant that provides good food at an extremely reasonable price,they work very hard to make your visit a good one.You are not visiting a Michelin starred restaurant,but a place that will provide an honest and very personal service. Thank you Jimmy and your staff for giving Nancy a very enjoyable 90th Birthday .We will return Kevin and Bernie and Family xx

Love this place, great staff, great food, all good

Very poor.. kleftico was tough as old boots, meatball starters are tiny and also rock hard. Avoid

This was the most wonderful restaurant. It is about 10 minute walk from the Ibis hotel in Wembley. My friend and I had the arena meza. The food was delicious. There was a lot of food for 2 people and a great variety something for all tastes. The service was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. The owner drove us back to the hotel as there was a terrible downpour and we would have got soaked. He also gave another couple a lift. Would definitely recommend this restaurant everything was perfect.

The food was excellent, the service was friendly and efficient - the owner went out of his way to help us.

I personally would NOT recommend this Resturant. I am Greek and have been to many Greek restaurants and this was very average. I ordered a starter but was waiting for the tzatziki when I asked if he could bring it out I was told to wait! Its coming! WOW how rude!! I also ordered the afelia which was described as pan fried and marinated in red wine. When it came it was large chunks of pork pan fried with onions and fried potatoes mmmmmm I said I was sorry but I can’t eat this as I didn’t like it. The rude waiter/owner said loudly “whats wrong with it you said you don’t like so what’s wrong with it gesturing his hand in front of me” again extremely rude. He did say more than 5 times what else do you want, but his rudeness put me off. The food was ok but average with every dish that had a salad garnish the salad was limp and brown which was off putting. I will NOT be going back and not recommending it. At 9pm we were the only ones in there which tells a lot.

A lovely restaurant situated in the hubbub of Wembley high street.Visited late Saturday afternoon before going to a concert at the Arena and only 10 minutes walk away.The service was warm and friendly and the food uncomplicated but cooked very well.On event days the set menu is provided but caters for all appetites.Meat,fish and vegetarian options available.The sea bass was cooked perfectly.The wine list limited but the Chilean wine is pleasantly drinkable and prices are exceptionally reasonable for London.Advisable to book beforehand.Highly recommended if you want to a meal that is not fast food or part of a chain.Would visit again.

Not too much to chose from around Wembley Stadium but this is a good option. Generally offers limited fixed price menu on matchdays. Reasonably priced

Great traditional food, really attentive and friendly service!

Visited this Restaurant on Sunday 27th May 2018. Made very welcome by the waiter on our entrance. Had Bucheta for starters which was gorgeous. We were recommended the house white for wine which was surprisingly very tasty. Mains we had Musaca , one of the best we have had. If ever you are going to the Arena for an event or Wembley Stadium, give 5ix Restaurant a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Great place, outstanding food, drink and staff

First and last visit for dinner. Completely lacking in hospitality and service. Food was extremely bland, lacking in any flavour. Presentation could be better too. A total lack of effort in terms of food and service. The waiter was not engaging at all and had to be asked for every little thing when it should be his job to pre-empt certain requests. He even steered us away from certain dishes due to the time and effort they'd take to make!! Coke was flat. No offer of bread or salad to begin with or to accompany the main meal, which are both standard at most Mediterranean restaurants. No table water offered or provided until we requested it. Had to wait to be given cutlery to eat our main meal. No thank you once we'd paid and they just let us leave without even a courteous 'goodbye and thank you for coming' despite being new customers. Not at all impressed. We visited based on Google ratings but our visit was nowhere near a 4.4 star. We definitely won't be going again or recommending this place.

Underwhelming food, over priced.

I have been there for dinner and the service it’s very good and owner friendly,but I ordered Sofrito and they brought me Stifado it’s different what I wanted and it’s was not very nice (I have lived in Greece for 10 years and I know what’s sofrito and what’s stifado ) even the service said Sofrito hahahah to make me believe it is but I didn’t say nothing it’s no worthy ! Still Greek style! ...

Arena Greek is not usually open on a Sunday and my booking for Mother's Day was only confirmed on the Friday, which was fine. However, at no point was it mentioned that they would only be serving from a limited, overpriced set- menu. In fact, I was even told that a kids menu was available. So imagine my surprise when we were presented with a set-menu for the 3 adults and the 2 children. After a little bit of negotiating we were able to swap the vegetarian option of moussaka for a stuffed pepper and split the set menu between the kids.

Very good food. Reasonably priced. Will definitely visit again. Family run. A great change from the chain restaurants in the area.

Um restaurante típico grego, pequeno e bem aconchegante. Ambiente familiar e comida muito boa. Por causa disso, embora seja muito cordial, o atendimento acaba pecando um pouco.

Booked via Opentable for dinner meal for 4 people. Great and attentive staff. Excellent food and good price. Quite and nice atmosphere. It was first time trying Greek food and the experience was pretty much positive. I really recommend it this rest!

I held my husband’s 60th birthday celebration at the restaurant. They bent over backwards to accommodate us. The restaurant is very clean, the ambience really lovely, and the food was delicious and plentiful. We had the set menu as there where quiet a lot of us. It is a menu that caters for all tastes. Also very good value for money.

Excellent Greek Cypriot food coupled with very good service.

Lovely restaurant, friendly staff, great food.

Good night out with friends.... good staff.

Great food. We really enjoyed it.

Always great service and food ..Jimmy and his staff always acommodating

Great lunchtime meal prior to match at Wembley. Friendly service, excellent food, would recommend and use again.

We had previously eaten here and experienced great Greek food within easy walking distance to Wembley. A family restaurant makes such a nice change from the resident chain restaurants.

Nice little Greek restaurant. Friendly staff, good food in generous portions. On a match day, you will not be able to order from the à la carte menu - the kitchen works on a set menu, to be able to cope with the number of people, but the choice on the set menu is decent, includes a vegetarian option. On a warm day, it may be a bit warm inside for some people.

Loved the restaurant very clean staff very friendly food excellent would go there again nice romantic place

The food is great and the welcome always warm and friendly.

Llegó a nuestra mesa por un hechizo ocupado y g el personal trabajó duro para asegurarse de que no espere demasiado.

Very accommodating just before an Adele concert
