Cyprus Kebab House in Bristol, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Vine aquí para una última comida antes de que los propietarios se retiren y cierren el 28 de marzo. He estado viniendo aquí desde que era niña, de las salidas nocturnas con mi familia, a las citas con mi prometido y un descarado kebab o dos cuando estaba en el Hospital de Maternidad. Decir que me encanta este lugar sería insuficiente. Su comida es increíble y porciones generosas (entrantes un poco ligeros, pero los platos principales más que maquillaje), dueños amables y excelentes precios.

Cyprus Kebab House have the best souvlaki in Bristol. Simply amazing food and the staff are great. Always a pleasure!

Una encantadora taberna chipriota familiar, excelente ambiente y comida deliciosa, un excelente lugar. Muy cálida bienvenida y buenos consejos sobre los elementos del menú del personal.

This is a gem. We dound this restaurant on the beach as we swam in Dekalia golck beech. We had excellent fish and chips as well as Kalamatas. Well prepared and cooked. We were all very surprised at the quality of the dishes and the servers were really fast. The drinks were on the table within minutes and the food was really fresh. We had great views of the beech and we will be going again we cant fault this place

Apparently the first Greek restaurant in Bristol, opened 30 years ago. Service was friendly and personal, just like being in Greece. Ambience nice also. Tzatziki and Stuffed Vine Leaf starters were nice. Mains of pork and beef stew were huge portions with a home cooking taste. But the food was middling hence a 3 star rating. Good prices though.

friendly family run Greek restaurant. Good ambiance, invariably crowded but they always seem to fit you in!

We call at this restaurant on our way home from rugby or football on a fairly regular basis, the guys are lovely and friendly and will always accomodate us however late our arrival. I always enjoy the salad and especially like the lamb chops, This is the oldest Greek restaurant in Bristol as far as I am aware and does feel a little dated but we take it for what it is. Its not a candlelit date night venue I admit but a group out for fun will have a laugh and decent enough food.

This place has a fun vibe. Colourful murals, old school carpets, jolly music. I really wanted to like it. But the food was terrible. The worst possible ingredients - tiny flabby chicken wings, tasteless soggy salad. And some shocking cooking - our moussaka inexplicably tasted like toothpaste. When the waiter came to collect our unfinished food he aggressively interrogated us on why we hadn't finished. To be fair to him, he did then take the moussaka off the bill. But at £65 for 4 this was still a big bill for such a bad meal. Probably works as a late night stop off, but as a sit down meal this place has got nothing going on.

Love traveling with friends, experience more things and have fun.love to meet new people and new culture.

The starters are small and expensive, with nothing else than a quarter of a « grilled » (burnt) halloumi and dry, old, not seasoned salad. The mains consisted in microwaved sausages, microwaved roasted potatoes and really bad vegetables. Again, dry, old salad with 2 tiny pieces of feta on top (« Greek salad »). Red wine terrible. 40pounds for 2, we had to go to another restaurant as we could not eat anything there and were still hungry. It is sad, as it feels like the restaurant was once upon a time a nice place, but people have clearly given up and the quality is now terrible.

So, where do I begin. On route home we decided we would stop by this little Greek kebab to try the chicken shish to take away after a lovely night in The Kingsdown vaults. First of all I need had a stroke at the price of the food and for the money my expectations were high. After an extensive wait we eventually got our food which was wrapped in a thin brown paper bag, the portion wasn't large, the chicken was dry but at least the salad was ok. Not to mention when I asked for 'a little bit of mayo' he told me that mayonnaise is charged extra as sachets on top of the kebab?! What sort of kebab shop charges extra for source and doesn't take card payments under a tenner? Don't waste your time or money. Go somewhere else

We booked last minute and called in with friends. 2 of us had kleftico and 2 of us had afelia. Roast potatoes and Greek salad accompanied the mains and everything was delicious. All plates were cleared! Tasty desserts too. Traditional food cooked well and service was impeccable. Give them a visit you will love it.

The best Greek food in Bristol especially the Kleftico takeaway. I have been to the restaurant many times over the years and to be able to get a garlic free meal for a change is magic

Having had a lovely time at Harvey Nichols, with their Christmas fayre, yes even in the height of summer, we headed to The Kebab House on St Michael's Hill. The recommendation was lamb chops and we were not disappointed, they're well done with a crispy outside and a succulent tender inside. Perfect.

Ordered a takeaway, my partner requested a kebab meat & chips but was charged for a small kebab and chips. Chips were tasteless & stodgy, kebab meat was ok, no offer of accompaniments (sauces or salad) & company still charges a £1.50 fee for card charges under £10 despite the new trading standards ruling (Jan 2018) banning surcharges for card payments - left with a terrible experience and poor tasting takeaway

This place is welcoming with a friendly atmosphere. I placed my order, chatted and joked with the lady owner while I waited. I had a large chicken kebab and some tzatziki. The kebab was nice with lots of salad and the tzatziki was fresh and tasty.

Met some friends in Bristol and we decided upon an old favourite. Meze again and it was great. You have to be a carnevor for this. Too much to eat. Lovely staff will take care of you........

I really liked the atmosphere here, its very small however and gets very busy when it opens in the evening to so beware of that. The food was very disappointing the kebab meat was very poor and they give you hardly any meat, they give you lots of salad however that is dripping in oil and lemon juice, just so soggy, we was not impressed. It was very expensive as well for what you get, and the portians so small. Friendly staff so it's a shame.

Firstly this place is great, very small, but food is fabulous

My partner and myself visited here on Saturday evening.....our only regret was not booking. We were able to dine but we had limited time, we didn't want to say no and it was good of them to let us sneak in!!!

Me and my girlfriend (now wife), first came to this restaurant 21 years ago and it was our introduction to Cypriot food.

I went here last October for my birthday and thoroughly enjoyed it! 6 of us all went for the Mezze as you get to try a number of different dishes. You get a big selection of dishes that come out over a period of time which were all delicious and there was plenty of food. My boyfriend took me back here on Valentines day and the food was just as good as I remembered. The service is second to none the owners of the restaurant are very accommodating and definitely give a service with a smile. They are husband and wife and have apparently been running the restaurant together for over 30 years. I would highly recommended the restaurant to anyone who likes this type of cuisine you will not be disappointed. Please do not let the take away to the front put you off as the restaurant is to the rear. Although the decor is a bit dated the atmosphere, service and food are all amazing. This is definitely going to become a regular for me and my partner.

Boyfriend ordered the special from the grill and I had the moussaka. The special was bland and the meat boring. The moussaka was just a mushy pile of white sauce, potato and minced lamb. It didn’t resemble actual moussaka in the slightest. When we complained to the waiter and it was passed into the kitchen, we were met with grilling questions and intimidating behaviour. We just wanted to pay and leave, but instead were confronted by the chef who clearly wasn’t happy with our complaint. There are much better Greek places to go to. Don’t waste your money. Rice was nice though.

We went there for a meal before going to a performance at Caulston Hall,

Had a great night at the Cyprus Kebab House. Food was lovely, nicely presented and cooked and the staff were very friendly. The decor was very traditional and that's what makes this place great! I almost felt like I was on holiday! I will definitely be returning here soon.

Walked past a couple of times after visiting BRI and didn't think anything of it but went in on a Friday night about 7pm. Looks like a regular end of the night kebab house from the front but is a quaint restaurant out the back....

Just visited my dad at BRI and wanted a reasonably priced meal. Great portions and great kebab Just visited my dad at BRI and wanted a reasonably priced meal. Great portions and great kebab

Me pase por este lugar todo el tiempo y después de leer algunas de las críticas, tenía muchas ganas de probarla. La comida era terrible! ! La carne era sosa, y el arroz era incomestibles. Pedí como para llevar. . Quiza si comer allí, la...

Una muy cálida bienvenida a comenzar, seguido de comida sabrosa. fantásticamente Sin duda recomendaría sentar en comida y un gran pincho comida!

Mi marido y yo queríamos conseguir un kebab después de nuestra noche de cine. Fuimos a la Casa de Chipre Kebab puramente porque estaba en la a nuestra casa. Excelente es la única manera que puedo describirlo. Sin duda volveremos! !

Hemos venido aquí al menos una vez a la quincena, su siempre brillante. Casa de comida casera tradicional chipriota. Marido y mujer son dueños de este lugar y es tan encantadora y amable. Siempre muy sonriente.

Mejor comida griega que jamás comer fuera de Grecia/Chipre. Es el tipo de lugar que se ocupaban de un amigo, y luego a seguir volver a por más. 'No tengo más que decir!

I have been to this husband and wife greek resturanr 30/40 times in 20 years, basic, but very Greek and great good.

We went to the Kebab House for a sit down meal for my flatmate's birthday. She is cypriot herself, so they had a lot to live up to. We were all very pleased with our meals as well as the warm, friendly atmosphere created by the staff at what I presume is a family-run restaurant. The food was authentic and tasty, with a menu that was very represtenative of my personal experience of greek tavernas (from numerous holidays). The prices were definitely reasonable, especially considering the location is central bristol (£11 for a kebab meal, £12 for greek beef stifado meal). I would definitely return and take other friends and family. If you like greek food, then you should certainly try it out.

My family visited this restaurant, having frequented it over 20 years ago. It was my 50th birthday and so wanted it to be extra-special. We were greeted by friendly staff and seated/served promptly. We all chose different dishes and everyone's food was hot and tasty. My sister had organised a birthday cake and this was not an issue for it to be served at the end of the meal. I would definitely go back to this restaurant. My only disappointment was that we left it so long this time round!

Don't be put off by the dated decor or the fact that it doubles up as a takeaway, the food and service here are outstanding. The kleftiko served here is the best I've tasted and there's loads of it. Try the taramasolata too, you'll be after the recipe! All in all a great place to eat as a couple or with friends and family and it won't break the bank.

We have been to our fair share of Tavernas and sampled quite a bit of Greek/ Cyriot cusisine. The people who run the restaurant are a man and wife who have been there for over 30 years. Nice atmosphere in the place and they are lovely people. Food was average though - my OH had the Kleftiko which was quite good if a little dry but the potatoes were disappointing. My house special kebab was OK and the accompanying salad for the table was mostly cabbage. Overall a nice atmosphere but food was average.

Ate here last night and thought it was great, proper little family run restaurant a million miles away from the corporate rubbish.The owners told me that they have been there 30 years and to still have the drive to provide good food and a welcoming atmosphere is remarkable.Be back again soon.

My Partner and I ate here last night, and the food was fantastic. I had the Kebab House Special and my partner the Mixed Kebab, and the meats were just delicious and lovely big helpings.This is a hidden gem - from the outside it just looks like a takeaway, but inside there's seating in the small rear section, and a cosy warm atmosphere. We ate as part of a large group, but the food all arrived quickly and nice and hot, which can sometimes be a struggle for small restaurants.The owner and his family were fantastic (helped, in part, by the people we were eating with knowing them personally for many years) and we had a brilliant time.Don't delay, visit today!

Couldn't recommend eating here enough. Go for the full selection menu option. Loads of amazing food reasonably priced. I've been to Cyprus a few times and this hits the mark.

Lovely atmosphere, best ever kleftico. Really nice house wine with very friendly staff. Family run for 30 years. Will definitely go back again.

First impressions...Not the best, the shop front looked a bit shabby and the inside decor was really dated, although we were greeted when we came in.The food and drink...The food was alright, not something I would blow the roof off about. But the drinks - well I thought it was a bit cheeky to pour 2 pints of coke with a bit of ice from a coke bottle and charge £3.50 each!! On a good day you could buy 7 bottles of the stuff for that price!The atmosphere was probably as lively as their flowers placed as center pieces on each table - dead (see photos attached)I'm never normally this critical but I think £3.50 for a pint of coke from a coke bottle with a bit of ice is definitely taking the piss, and £5.80 for a small doner kebab - that's probably taking the piss too, but I still bought 1 on the way out!

I never fail to be impressed by the atmosphere at this little gem.Always opt for the mezze which is nothing less than impressive.If you are looking for a traditional, friendly, place, where you can actually imagine being in Cyprus, then be sure to visit.Don't let this pass you by, especially if you are a Bristolian and have never visited before.

Mr kokos and his wife know their stuff.I am very fussy with my food and the food here is fresh.I usually get the pork kebab and they never let me down!Definetly going there again!

I have visited many times. Excellent food, especially the meze which is huge. Takeway kebabs are also great.Ideal for small groups sharing meze.It may not look very appealing from the outside, but give it a try and I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

I have been stumbled upon this lovely little Cypriot restaurant/takeaway about 2 months ago and am completely addicted to they're delicious food! They are very welcoming and I will certainly keep coming back. Thank you!

I have been going to this restaurant on an infrequent basis ( I spend a lot of time away from Bristol ) for getting on for thirty years so did not need to consult trip advisor but did so out of interest. Its true there are the same murals on the wall, and it is suspended in time but I like it and find it comforting in a changing world. Likewise it is not fine dining but I always find a warm welcome, good service and a huge plateful of tasty meat, sausage and kebab at a reasonable price. I have enjoyed a meal there today and will be going back.

I have eaten here quite a few times with family and friends and have never been dissaponted. The food and service is great. My teenage children also very much enjoyed it. I usually have the mixed Kebab, but the Mezze is also great.

Visited this place one evening hoping it would be nice and authentic. The place looked tired and cheaply decorated there was not even a separate kitchen. Had to move tables because the heating was too hot. Orders were taken ok. Starters of hummus and tahini were poor (just sloppy and tasteless). Mains - mixed kebab was overdone and very dry with meat bouncing off the plate to the floor! A fish dish appeared to be not very fresh. One colleague did enjoy his stifado and the sheftalia was average (this person was a Cypiot!).

Brilliant family owned restraunt. A little gem but with BIG feasts. This place had been here for years. Thought I'd finally go in for the first time and I was suprised to say the least. A must try.

总体一般 chicken kabab 4.8pounds. 在店里吃更贵 可以打包带走。店里总给人一种不是很干净的感觉，味道也一般吧 烤肉还行，有一点好处是份量特别大 给的蔬菜很多 。辣酱挺好吃的。

Found this wonderful restaurant last night when I was desperate for something quick and easy to eat....Quite simply this was the best kebab I have ever had outside of Cyprus and the service and staff are top of their game!Many thanks and I look forward to returning soon

As I come from Greece and since I'm a chef (20 years in hospitality industry) I have to say,that,These people who have this Cypriot - Greek? Restaurant are the worst mix of people that they don't care about customers, fresh ingredients and tradition. Chichen souvlaki disappointing. Dry, hard fillet of chicken. Done couple of huge slices all the way,dry as well and ready mix-not handmade I mean. Salad? It's a joke!two pieces of tomato,two pieces of cucumber not even fresh cuted and just sour cabbage. Is this the Greek image that you want to give to local English (and not only) people?...Sorry but I will not let you!cause I love my country, the Greek fresh food that we making, the smile,the politeness, hospitality and all the package. Cypriot don't know anything about this!They care only for money! Nothing more And please, clean this place...

A favourite haunt in our early days, 1980s , and had been meaning to try it out and eventually got there one Thursday evening about 8.30. It had changed very little and I am sure it is run by the the same family. Lots of colourful murals on the walls and photos of happy people celebrating at the restaurant. The place is a takeaway and restaurant and it was quiet on our visit but we received a warm welcome. Good selection of food but went for the house special. So much! Donar meat, meat kebabs, sausages, rice and a separate salad with feta and chillies. Couldn't,eat it all. A glass of wine and a lager for under £30.Not quite as good as I remembered but may be it wasn't Saturday night and may be it was something from a point in time which has now passed. However food was nice and great value...Whatever try it yourself and make your own mind up. Maybe it was just me!

Popped in for a takeaway chicken kebab. Packed full of nice salad and a decent sized toasted pitta. Could have had a little more chicken but was reasonable for £4.80. Very tasty and cooked over open coals. I'd come back

Went here with my group of friends for our Xmas night out. It was a great night with excellent food, better than I had in Greece this summer. Three of our group had never been here before but loved it and we will definitely be coming back for more :-)... Friendly staff, great food what more could you ask for ....

I placed an online order for delivery - food arrived after 45 minutes or so with half the order missing. The delivery driver offered to get the rest of the order, which would involve another half an hour to add to the waiting time. I said I would ring the shop to speak to someone - he said no-one would be there. Lie number 1.I rang the shop and spoke to the manager who was extremely rude and told me the driver had already left with the missing items (as this was about four minutes after being at my front door this was clearly another lie. The manager was very rude and not at all apologetic that this mistake had been made. As this is now the second time this has happened to us we will never use this takeaway again.

From the front this looks like a small kebab joint. Go through that to the restaurant at the back and you are in for a real treat. Georgiou and his Cypriot family cook authentic traditional Greek Cypriot meals, all delicious and masses of it! I have an appetite but regularly fail to eat all that is put in front of me. Recommend the Moussaka or the Kleftiko, almost half a sheep at a time, and of course the Greek Salad. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Would give it 6/5 if I could.

Good value for money.Staff friendly and helpful.Could do with a lick of paint but apart from that it's a restaurant I would highly recommend.

We have eaten here for many years , not once have we been disappointed . Highly recommend the kebab house special .

I have been going here with my family since I was four years old and affectionately know it as George's after the owner. If you want a perfect meal at an unbeatable price then this is the place. I look forward to taking my children here in years to come.

We ordered two classic greek dishes moussaka and lamb souvlaki. I thought, if the restaurant has been in business this long (the interior was a time capsule from the early 1980's) at least the food must be good, right? ...Wrong! Both dishes ominously arrived with the same dark-looking rice and an unappetising looking shared salad and because I wasn't expecting rice, I ordered a side plate of fried potatoes. The rice tasted as if it had been reheated and was inedible. A moussaka's key ingredients of tomato, aubergine and lamb were either completely absent in taste (in the case of the tomato) or in very short supply. The dish was heavily dominated by a heavy bechamel sauce over-spiced with cinnamon, but without the whisked egg to make it light and fluffy or the subtelty of nutmeg. I even found an olive stone in it. The sheepy quality of kefalotyri or pecorino was also as absent as the lamb!Seriously, If I had not been so hungry, I'd only have eaten a couple of mouthfuls. My companion's griddled lamb was dry, chewy and of poor quality, she left 75% of it and so there we were with... chips and salad. The potatoes were all I found palatable, but my companion seemed to quite like the salad, which for me was overwhelmed by finely chopped white cabbage.Thankfully, I was not asked by any of the owners or waiter if i'd enjoyed the food, because I would been brutally honest, but at least with this review you have been forewarned! If you crave some classic Greek cuisine in Bristol, you may not find it in The Kebab House!

Initially when we arrived I thought my friend had an odd sense of humour but she lived in Bristol for nearly ten years and used to visit frequently. From the outside and just inside the door it looks like a standard take away because the restaurant is all the way through the long building and all the cooking is at the front.It does look like a 70/80's style restaurant, all the traditional pictures, photos framed of visitors and ornaments that make it feel like a slice of Greece for the visitor. The welcome is warm and friendly and it is a family run restaurant. They were very busy, it was a Saturday night and there was a family party right behind us of really, really noisy and demanding children up to about teenage age. They were supposed to vacate by 7.30pm but were still served politely until they finally left. We had the mixed meze so there was lots of food, it was all hot, tasty and filling. We really enjoyed our evening and had a chat with the owner before we left, about the history and the years they have been there. We would definitely return when in the area next as it is definitely worth travelling that distance in to the centre of Bristol for.

Never been here before and to be honest I thought it was just a kebab takeaway. It's a real hidden gem and will be recommending it to everyone. Went there late last night and no problem getting seated. Waiting staff and chef greeted us as we entered which was lovely. There's a large menu to choose from and plenty of vegetarian choices. Everyone in the group chose a different dish and they all looked and tasted great. It's not cheap eats, but what you get is great food, cosy atmosphere and chatty and friendly staff, which makes for a guaranteed good time.

We were recommended to the Kebab house bristol by friends, when you first enter you think its a kebab shop but then your taken through to the rear of the premises and its like you have stepped back in time to the late 70's / 80's with hand painted murals on the wall and old fashioned chairs but don't let that put you off,, the service was better then some fine dining restaurants, and the Cypriot food was very tasty !!We had a selection of the "Mezedes" and I will say it was Very enjoyable !!! and our daughters had Lamb Souvlaki and Chicken Souvlaki and they both also really enjoyed !! All in all:-Decor 70% (don't let that put you off)Service 100%Food 100%Would we visit again 100% Well worth a visit :)

My wife and I visit this restaurant every couple of months and I have been going here since I was a little boy with my family. The food is amazing and reasonably priced aswell. A lovely, family run business and I always feel at home whenever I visit.

Visited for a meal with my husband and 4 friends. We had a wonderful time. Food and wine were fantastic, service excellent. The Greek salad is best salad I have ever been served in any restaurant. Highly recommend this gem of a restaurant.

Ambience overflowing. Sassy staff who make you feel part of the family. And if you need telling off that's what they'll do!Our party of six had booked. Just as well cos it was full. Small place with lots of feeling and vibe. Plenty of food and wine at about £30 per person including tip. Made us feel very welcome. And at the end sorted the taxi without any bother. I've never had the pleasure of eating at a Greek/Cypriot home but I suspect this was very close. We'll be back.

Love this place my partner introduced me to it and Greek food. Love it, lovely place, lovely staff and great food and atmosphere.

Had a great meal with friends. Great food, warm service. Always great! The moussaka was delicious, as was the chicken skewers.

My gf and I are now regular guests.The owner and his wife (they're chef, waiter, cleaner) are genuinely very kind people. Never been on weekend, I suppose I wouldn't enjoy, but during the week it is a cozy, worm, old fashioned, authentic place, with a strong personality.Massive portions, we never finish up our food. A must: SIDE SALAD, feta cheese, white cabbage, peppers, olives and a sort of secret ingredient! Amazing!!!Weak point: moussaka didn't taste fresh, bit disappointing....but they still need to be rate 5

I brought my wife here for a birthday treat. She started with the spinach parcel, I had hummous. She moved on the moussaka, which was a large portion with rice. I had kleftiko, which was enormous, with roast potatoes. We were also presented with a large dish of salad. We could not finish our meals, the portions were so generous. We couldn't manage a dessert. An earlier review said there was only poor quality house wine - rubbish, they had most of the Cypriot wines.I agree it's not the best Greek restaurant around, but there are very few in this area. The prices are very reasonable and the staff very friendly and attentive. It's the second time I've been here, and it won't be the last.

Don't be put off by the entrance which makes it look like a take away kebab shop (which of course, part of it is!) Venture further inside to step back in time for the authentic Cypriot / Greek food. A lovely little restaurant with bags of atmosphere. the menu is traditional , the staff are friendly and if you have every been to Cyprus, you would feel at home - it really made you long to be back in the sun. The food was excellent with generous portions and there was no hurry for you to leave, even though they were obviously going to be busy that night. The cost was reasonable and I would have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant.

Not the best greek restaurant you could eat in but suited the purpose. Its probably a better Kebab house than a restaurant some of the food was reheated rather than cooked to order.

Went with a party of 8 friends who had been recommended this restaurant. The outside does not really invite, but once inside there is a welcoming old fashioned atmosphere. We all had very authentic greek meals and all enjoyed them. Very relaxed feeling, and no hurry to eat or leave.

I am writing this review having eaten here 3 times and can’t believe I have not written a review sooner. The atmosphere is warm, friendly and authentic and the restaurant makes you feel like you are on holiday! The food is freshly cooked, generous portions and extremely good value. The stifado is a particular favourite. We are going on first Greek holiday this September and will be visiting beforehand to get us in the mood! Very well kept secret and really worth a visit.

Don't listen to all the bad reviews, this place is great! Myself & my wife took 2 other couples here on Saturday night who had never been here before & they loved it! The waitress was really friendly & explained all the menu, having a good laugh with us throughout the night. There was lots of food & even for 2 of us who are big lads we struggled to finish the mezze! Once we paid our bill the manager came over & bought us all a drink of our own choice which was a nice touch! I would definitely recommend this restaurant for a night out & a good meal but book before hand as there are only a handful of tables.

I was excited to try this place as it had pretty good reviews and I thought it looked reasonably authentic. I ordered a large lamb shish kebab, rice, and baklava. The kebab has absolutely no flavor at all. The pieces of lamb were extremely fatty as well. I ended up having to spit out about half of each piece. This was easily the worst kebab I have ever had. The rice wasn't any better. It looked like it was going to have a lot of flavor but again had none. The baklava was fine; it wasn't great and wasn't terrible.

Staying in the kids hospital with daughter so had a small window to nip out for a takeaway - despite reviews and initial impressions took a chance. 4 small lumps of chicken and stacks of watery salad. Very disappointed.....

The good reviews tempted me to try it last night. The food was terrible, bland and had a far from homemade feel. I'm sure that the rice was uncle bens microwave tomato rice, no flavour whatsoever. The tables are so close together that you get reared as other people get up and down to the toilet which you can hear every time it flushes. My wife was very disappointed with all of her food, as was I. We have spent a fair amount of time in Greece and love it but is far from anything we had there. Wine terrible with just red or White House wine. Never again!!!

Me and the missus just had a doner kebab from this place... never again, the meat was really dry and thin, it was gross

This is a well kept secret! Outwardly the place looks like a slightly run down Kebab takeaway which has a fantastic reputation for excellent takeaway Cypriot food. However take an extra few steps when inside the shop and you are imediately transported into a small intimate Cypriot Taverna. The staff are very attentive the food is of excellent quality and quantity, DO NOT ENTER if you have an appetite like a bird! You will have to book a table as this is a very popular venue for those like me who are in love with genuine Cypriot food. Go and enjoy.

A Cypriot friend told us the restaurant was really nice. So we've decided to try their take away kebabs first: we had 4 large ones, with 2 skewers each (mix of pork, lamb and chicken), ~£6.60 per kebab. The pita they used was tiny, some supermarket pita, instead of the real thing. The meat was ok, but missing spices, oregano etc. which would give it flavour. We had to pay extra if we wanted tzatziki, which is, in my opinion, unacceptable for Cypriot/Greek food. Fries were not added either, instead they threw a massive portion of lettuce and chilli sauce. All served in a paper bag which got soaked very soon. This was not a delicious wrap, we had to pick the salad first, then find the meat, then some pita at the end. I am tempted to say I don't feel like trying their overpriced restaurant now. There are nicer options in Bristol.

I am confused, all these reviews are excellent and we have just had the worst restaurant experience ever. The food was mostly poor with the exception of the spicy sausage. It was the comical service that was really bad. I asked for the food to be boxed up and the waiter just dumped the food into a carrier bag and tied a knot in it. Then I noticed we had been charged £1.60 for a cup of hot tap water. Now drinking milk to cure the heart-burn. Was so bad in there. This is my first ever review and I hate people who write bad reviews, just trying to get my point across.

Shut the door and you could be in Greece/Cyprus.Great atmosphere, great food and the best Brandy Sour this side of Cyprus!Recommend a visit or 2 :)

Second time here, only recently discovered this little gem. Do not be put off by the initial appearence...yes it's a takeaway but then behind it's a Cypriot Taverna transported to Bristol. Authentic dishes, reasonably priced and very friendly staff. Keo Beer, Cypriot wines and a lovely atmosphere. You will not be disappointed. Best to book at the weekends as it's not very big and does get busy.

This place has been around for years. I went there in the 80's and thought it was special. Just been back with a group of friends and ordered the Meze. Hoping to relive the happy moments of the past but found it was still serving up the same menu from then.Although still a friendly restaurant the food is tired and of poor quality. They are banging out some mediocre kebabs with a very poor presentation. The meat is dried out and uninspiring.Really needs to get up to date and vastly improve the menu.Place also needs a lick of paint.Things have moved on and it really needs to offer a much more delicious and better cooked menu.

Another Bristol institution, you will not find better value for money greek food in Bristol. This family run popular restaurant has been a favourite of ours for years and always amazes friends we introduce to it. The food is all freshly cooked, generous portions and reasonably priced with friendly chatty staff. Highly recommended restaurant with bags of old school character and fantastic food.Paul & Finola

Iv been using this kebab house for over 10 years Iv tried others but none come anywhere near the quality and service that you get here Top marks

Been to this restaurant on multiple occasions, with family, friends and just with my partner. Family run place, whole family so lovely and friendly. Food is always absolutely perfect and generous portions and amazing value. I have and will continue to recommend to friends and family!

Very friendly service and great Mezes if you particularly enjoy Greek Cypriot food. I didn't particularly like its doner and rice, however the souvlaki and keftedes were great. Kateifi from the deserts is also worth a try

I can't say a bad word about this place, the food is Amazing, good value for money, the owners are friendly and so are the staff. I fully recommend this restaurant

This place is quite small, and when it's full is not always easy to have a chat without screaming but I like it. Don't be scared due to the absence of windows, but I like this place because the food is good and the staff is really kind and patient, and if you became used to go they treat you like "one of the family". The food as I said is good, fresh salad, good mussaka and kebab. The sweet are nice to. I would say that this place is amazing for group of friends, just be careful about the number and the timing: it's easy to find it busy. You have to try it once that you are in Bristol, also for the staff that is able to make the difference!

Was up in Bristol visiting relatives... I Love Greek food, especially the Cypriot variety...I'd sourced this place and although there aren't many reviews here, they're all good/excellent so far so it was a "must do"Bonus, it was just down the hill from the hospital we were visiting...Anyway, doesn't look much from outside, a "greasy kebab shop" take-away..BUT step into the back and it's a piece of Cyprus in Bristol!Yeah, the decor is a bit tatty and naff, yeah, they've got plastic tablecloths and cr@p wine glasses (normally something that ranks with MRSMG)BUT, what a welcome!, The place was packed - always a good sign... It's a family business, and they're very much "hands on"The four of us had a variety of starters, (excellent Kalamari!) then followed the mains...Kleftico to die for...A perfectly grilled steak, and my lamb chops were the best that I've had in ages!!salad, roasties, fries (only minor gripe - no rice)Keo beer, or pints on draught, the usual Cypriot wines... we were well fed...Great party atmosphere, George, the owner/chef came and sat and chatted, we haven't had as much fun in ages!!OK, "haute quisine" it isn't, but for a belting night out, you've got to go....My Son and his GF, who are picky eaters, both gave it 11/10... I'll just give it full marks all round!They're open late as well!!ATB,J.

Came here not expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. Had mixed kebab with rice and salad. Portion was huge but very tasty and washed down with Keo cypriot lager. Recommended.

what a lovely place to go and eat and drink. it is dated but it has got so much atmosphere, the owner and his wife were attentive, the food was excellent,it is a gem .will be going again soon.try it.

This is by far my favourite restaurant in Bristol, we've been going there for years and the food is the most authentic i've ever eaten in this country. George and Flora are fabulous hosts and make you feel extremely welcome, the food is delicious and completely authentic, my favourite has to be the meze if i'm feeling hungry but the kebab house special always goes down a treat as well. Everything is fresh and George's roast potatoes and rice are to die for, I cannot recommend it enough.

Love the place. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Reminds me of my childhood days in Cyprus eating Meze's. It's a must if you enjoy Greek (and in particular Cypriot) food.
