Giorgio's Mediterranean Restaurant and Bar in Winchester - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Quaint restaurant with nice atmosphere. Lovely food.

Wonderful family run Mediterranean style restaurant. With good varied menu offering quality food at reasonable rather than over inflated prices. Family? Well, the chef is Giorgio, who had his parents, like Barry (his dad and his mum sat at the bar) who are his business partners. They graciously came over and introduced them selves & each other. Stopping by to tell us how the restaurant came to be and have a laugh. Giorgio's Beef Stifado took me back to the the fine cuisine in Crete while the cool Greek salad took us back to the warmth of the Greek sun. My wife's Linguine carbonara brought back memories of halcyon days in both Spain & Italy. And the pizza? Our daughter, enjoyed the pizza campagnola, which was cooked with care as were all it's toppings, NONE being a last minute after thought, like so many, and just chucked on as an after thought. No. Giorgio know his trade and loves being the chef and host. We finally finished off with some homemade chocolate profiteroles with chocolate sauce and some lemoncello to gentley almost imperceptibley wash it down. Will we be going back? Oh yes! 😆🤩

Had a lovely meal with some friends last night. Food was excellent with really friendly helpful staff. Nice ambience. Cocktails spot on. Highly recommended.

music was on, Poor service as usual if its busy. The bar is not suitable for ordering drinks at as they have bar stools in place and you have to fight your way through. The food portion last night was very poor which made us feel ripped off. £9 for mushroom starter, very salty & hardly any mushroom, no garnish or bread ! Mushroom risotto also lacked mushroom. Over priced.

Had a great meal here. Staff were attentive and the food was great and arrived quickly

What a fantastic restaurant. Greek atmosphere, clean and authentic tasting food. We will be back as looking for a local non chain alternative restaurant. Perfect location too!

Our favourite place! George always looks after us and the food is consistently superb!

Always excellent food.. Live music nights are great

Beautiful interior and lovely waiting staff. The falafel starter and the olives are both very tasty. However, as a vegan, although 3 mains on the menu, the 2 I have tried were disappointing. The pizza was too large and too boring. The bean stew tasty but too much and therefore became boring. No plant based puddings. My friends enjoyed their crab ravioli from the specials board, my husband’s beef in the stifado wasn’t falling apart and meting but was tasty. Quite expensive when you’re left feeling underwhelmed. Such a shame as a great venue.

Came here for a mid-week dinner with friends and everything was delicious. We all commented on how good our meals were and didn’t know what to choose from the menu as everything sounded so good. Even on a weekday there was still a lovely atmosphere and very popular!

Bit of a hidden jem. Only a front door is the giveaway that there is a restaurant down stairs. It's a good size space with lots of character. We only had a drink but so popular and busy. Food looked and smelt good. Will definitely be back for food, especially the sea food.

Really good neighbourhood style restaurant. The staff were welcoming and competent and the atmosphere was cosy and relaxed. All the food we had was well executed and tasty - lots of staples to choose from. Would recommend.

Been a while since we have been here. We had a great meal with a shared starter (Falalfel etc...) Seafood Linquine and Pizza with a nice bottle of wine. Great service and a nice atmosphere so.... we will be back.

A hidden gem. Food was excellent as was service. Would definitely recommend.

Another great evening at Giorgio's. Food, wine, service, all fabulous. Lovely atmosphere and ambience, friendly staff, Thanks Guys 👍

Lovely little place hidden away. Great service, great food, great ambience.

Absolutely stunning restaurant it’s my favourite place of all time. The home cooked authentic food the incredible staff and the price. It’s perfect x

An absolutely fabulous restaurant. The staff are courteous, polite, very friendly and provide a wonderful atmosphere. The food and basement restaurant are fantastic. A thoroughly recommended restaurant.

Went for a family birthday meal. We booked a table in advance to secure a spot. The service was excellent, the food delicious with plenty of choices.

18th June 2023 My Wife's birthday. Fantastic food Brilliant service. We had a lovely night and will come again. George is a legend.

One of our favourites, this place never fails to deliver an all round excellent experience. With a cosy atmosphere, helpful & friendly staff, and last but not least authentic tasty food. I find it difficult after visiting here many times (and trying various different items on the menu) not to order the halloumi fries as a starter, and the Calabrese pizza as main; both are very good. Pizza is my favourite food, and this one ranks in my top 3 I've ordered from any restaurant, the chicken, pepperoni and spicy sausage are a perfect combination (ask for chilli as an additional topping if you want an extra little 'kick'). Portion sizes are generally very good for most dishes. As for desserts the options vary every time (listed on a small chalk board placed on your table), but the cheesecake is always very good, especially if it's the biscoff one! Thank you for a great experience every time!

Lovely meal and very responsible, the staff very friendly and helpful lovely place.

Fabulous atmosphere, food & cocktails. Simply a must . Will be back . Staff were a delight and had a beautiful monk fish dish .

We had dinner on two days. Excellent restaurant. Perfect meals / very good service. Don't miss this.

Amazing food and great service. Highly recommended.

The setting and atmosphere inside this 'under ground' restaurant is special. It is well thought out and gives a good degree of authenticity. The service was good and the food was VERY tasty although ONE chicken kebab, albeit a fairly large one, for around £17 was certainly on the pricey side. Value for money? Probably not. Having said that we will probably be back to try out other dishes.

Went here on Friday. Really lovely food, beautifully presented, and excellent service. Definitely will go back as soon as possible.

George is a fantastic host. Great food . Great setting. Great staff 10/10

We came to Giorgio's for our 27th wedding anniversary and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was my 2nd time here and couldn't wait to take my husband. He was just as blown away with the food, the atmosphere and the great service. I loved the tzatiki dip (without lemon juice, perfect for me as I have a citrus allergy) which came with pitta bread, a generous pot of olives with Feta cheese and sun-dried tomatoes and thoroughly enjoyed the seafood linguine as my main meal. I had absolutely no room for dessert. Will make another reservation very soon!

Giorgio's has always been the door to who knows where on the High Street in Bishops Waltham, but we have finally visited to see where the door went. The food was delicious, the service was pleasant and efficient and the venue and atmosphere was fitting and comfortable. We couldn't fault it and will definitely be back soon.

Phenomenal food - attentive service - pleasant ambience

We are so fortunate to have this lovely little restaurant in Bishops Waltham! A smaller menu is far better. What they offer is done really well and is hot on arrival. A little bit of dressing for the salad would have been great but I could have asked! Great service and atmosphere:-)

Great atmosphere and amazing food!

We had a meal with friends tonight. First time for all of us- and we can’t wait to come back. The food is delicious and the setting is stunning. Such a lovely relaxing and friendly atmosphere. Thank you Aleisha for looking after us tonight….and to all the staff aswell. Great value for money -We even had to check the bill at the end as it seemed too cheap. 5⭐️

We had a truly wonderful evening tonight at Georgios. The food was cooked to perfection. Would definitely recommend the Moussaka and Linguine Giorgio. Also the Sticky Toffee pud was to die for! The is the nicest and tastiest meal we have all had for a long long time, and there was 4 of us in our party. We could literally not fault anything. Worth every penny. The waitresses were so kind and caring. We would especially like to thank Alicia. She was a star. Definitely book, You wont be disappointed.

Lovely Valentine's evening, will be back again

A work evening out and a first visit to Giorgio’s. Really friendly and helpful service and the food was very tasty. Buzzing atmosphere with lots of happy people, great night!

One of my favourite places for a meal out! Good food, good atmosphere, good service. I recommend it to everyone. It's even better if you make it on a night with live music.

Christmas eve meal superb great service a definite do it again

Went with a group of friends for a get together, the food was nice, but so very overpriced to say the least! Anyway, all was going well until the music started, then you literally couldn’t hear yourself talk. The evening was cut short to get away from the noise, far too loud for a small restaurant. We listened to 3 songs, which I might add, we’re way off key, and left. I can’t fault the girls who were waiting on the table, they did a brilliant job! Once it was a delight to go there, but not anymore, so we shall not be visiting again!

We went toG’s as a group of family and friends. We had a very enjoyable evening. Service was good. Nobody had any issues with food. My dolmades were ok. The seafood risotto very tasty although the calamari rings were too chewy for my taste. Reports on the chicken souvlaki and the stifado were both positive. And the price worked out well also.

Stopped by for a cocktail to end an evening out. Lovely place, lovely atmosphere.

Fabulous food and superb service in a wonderful setting. Will go again.

Service is always very polite with good food and atmosphere as always!

Had a great evening celebrating a birthday here. They do great vegan options and the atmosphere and service was also fantastic! Would definitely recommend!

Lovely food very nice feel to the restaurant and good service

Fabulous food, quick service and great atmosphere. (Air conditioned too!)

Excellent customer service in the end by Megan But we did wait at least 30/40 for order food after first drinks order. We had to ask for someone to take our order. Starters were lovely when we got them however mains we missing ingredients ie chorizo and my chicken Slovaki was very dry. But couldn’t fault waitress especially Megan. Wasn’t great service for food considering not many table full

From the moment we walked through the door we felt welcomed at Giorgio's. The staff were excellent and nicely attentive throughout the evening. We each had a 3 course meal comprised of different dishes and each was delicious. We had a thoroughly lovely time and would highly recommend Giorgio's.

Lovely lovely venue for a meal out. Downstairs restaurant, small but varied menu reasonable priced. Music and dancing nights too. Great parking right outside or carpark opposite.

It has a nice vibe. The service is good. The food is fine but not above the average hence 3 stars.

Another great evening in Georgios If you have never visited, take a chance and try ! Our favourite restaurant, Great venue, great food and a great host in George

Great to finally visit. Wasn't disappointed, fantastic food.

Nice to be back and excellent food and service.

This was our first visit to Giorgio’s. Loved everything about it. Really liked the decor especially being in a cellar. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. But the food was amazing. The sauce with the prawn gambas was so good it should be bottled and sold 😀. Everything was really great. Thank you to all involved as it made a great family evening

Food and service itself was good but the menu was unimaginative.

Firstly I need to say I have been coming to Georgios or it’s previous iterations for 30+ years so this is not an impartial review ! Anyway, so pleased that George , Barbara and Barry have weathered the storm, literally in the case of last Julys rainfall. First meal since reopening tonight, cannot fault the food and service attentive as ever. New staff and so pleased to see that everyone has bought into the friendly Mediterranean taverna ethic. Well done all, can’t recommend this place enough and will be back soon N&H

We were let down last night at a pub that I booked for 6 of us on Wednesday night. We noticed that Giorgio’s had re- opened and so pleased they had. Our disastrous evening was saved. What a lovely meal, staff were brilliant and a...

Since newly opening up after being flooded, we tried it on Saturday. Well it was totally FAB lovely staff Barry front of house and Georgio behind bar and all his waitresses and the food was superb and very reasonably priced. Cant wait to go back very soon. Lovely cosy setting in cellar superb WELL DONE 5 STARS

Had a booking scheduled on a Friday - came out of our way especially to visit because of the high ratings and even received confirmation of our reservation beforehand. When we showed up the restaurant was closed. We were never emailed or called and given a heads up even though apparently the restaurant had been closed for 5 days. Very disappointed.

Really excellent Chicken Souvlaki. Attentive service and lovely atmosphere ... what more could you want !

We had a great evening, the food was amazing and the service was fantastic. We were made to feel so welcome. We look forward to eating there again

Chose this restaurant because of the reviews and I am so glad we did the food and staff are excellent, I could not fault mine and my lovely lady's experience will definitely be returning. Many thanks to all for making it a fantastic night. 🌙

Always great food and service - damn good cocktails too!

What a great place, have known it for a long time but never ceases to suprise me with their lovely menue!!!!

Thank you so much to all the team at Giorgio's for making our wedding reception so special on Saturday 29th May 2021. After several delays to the big day due to covid we were relieved that we could finally celebrate and myself and my husband are so grateful to everything you did to make our day special. Everyone agreed the food was fantastic, the Mediterranean buffet was so tasty, plus a few requested extras of our favourite foods made it perfect. The whole place looked beautiful and we really appreciate all the effort George and the rest of the staff made in order to make our dream day come true, we can't thank you enough for all your hard work. Whether it's dinner or a party we cannot recommend Giorgio's enough, fantastic food, setting, staff and service! Plus covid safe and secure. Thank you again.

Lovely night out, lovely food, very friendly.

It was lovely, Barbara was very friendly and afficient and a very nice evening

So happy to be back out for dinner, chose Giorgio’s as our first outing in a long time to celebrate our anniversary and I’m so glad we did. The staff were very nice, helpful and warming. The authentic home made food tasted great and was well priced. Look forward to go back very soon.

We love the food here, it is very friendly with a lovely atmosphere. They are very accommodating when organising a special meal too.

Amazing food good atmosphere especially with the challenging times staff are attentive. Will be back soon highly recommended :)

This was our first visit to Giorgio's, but it won't be our last!! We received a lovely warm welcome when we arrived, the atmosphere in the restaurant is very warm, the service is friendly and the menu is very varied - you really are spoilt...

Delicious pizza and cosy decor. A lovely way to spend an evening. The staff all wore face masks and there were hand sanitiser stations.

Delicious food, attentive staff. Keep up the good work guy's!😁

Visited Giorgios to celebrate my wife's 75th birthday. Super meal as always served by excellent, attentive staff. Very lucky to have the restaurant near to us

Lovely place nice atmosphere staff are excellent, Highly recommend it will be back for sure.

Lovely restaurant with great food and drinks :)

Great staff, fantastic food and great atmosphere. Cocktails were a treat as well ! George does a great job!

Nice Italian restaurant, great service- very accommodating, good value -good food. Decor and ambience was great.

As always, food was very good. Would highly recommend. On our last visit (Aug 2020) we felt as if some of the tables were a bit close to each other, especially during covid. Staff were very sensible and followed all the rules

Delicious food, great, friendly service and wonderful value for money. Thank you.

First time here, thanks Rishi, seemed small from the outside but when you go in and downstairs it opens up. Brilliant food cooked well and delivered by some very attentive staff. Great experience.

A hidden gem of a restaurant in Bishops Waltham. As close as you will get to the Mediterranean without going abroad. Have eaten here a several times and the food is always delicious. Highly recommended.

My daughter surprised me with a visit here for my birthday and what s lovely surprise it was, the food was delicious, the staff very friendly and attentive and it had a lovely ambiance. I would definitely recommend it.

Amazing service as always at Giorgio's. Top quality food. The best pasta dish is Pasta Giorgio. Staff are very friendly and the service is always excellent. I love the atomosphere. Live bands on weekends. I can't recommend Giorgio's highly enough! George the owner is a top bloke. Makes you feel so welcome and special. Will be back again soon.

Have been here with friends and family and never been. 90 year old Grandma had her first Lamb Moussaka and loved it. Pizzas and chicken souvlaki were really tasty. Garlic mushrooms and the meze board were full of flavour! The Bougatsa, Tiramisu and cheesecake were...

First time visiting this lovely little local restaurant. Starters of meze sharing platter and arancini were perfect, as were two pizza mains. Souvlaki was disappointing, small amount of chicken which was overcooked, however spoke to manager who was very understanding and did not charge for...

First time my partner and myself have ever been here, very welcoming, lovely atmosphere and the bar staff were very friendly An excellent place for food and drinks. We will definitely be going again..soon!!

Lovely food and atmosphere, very friendly staff what more could you ask for .

Went here for a second Christmas get together. It was as good as the last time. Lovely good and a great atmosphere, entertainment as well. A perfect evening.

Really great food and an amazing atmosphere for a Tuesday night!! Will most definitely visit again!!!

Only popped in for a drink, lovely atmosphere great looking menu, will definitely be back soon.

What a beautiful venue with such a wonderful, helpful and accommodating host. We hired Georgio’s for our daughters 21st birthday party. The food was incredible...paella to die for and George couldn’t have been more accommodating. From mixing up the menu to letting us decorate in...

1st visit. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, food delicious. Will be returning 😊

Thought we would find somewhere different in Bishops Waltham and well worth the experience. Lovely atmosphere. Good food. Very friendly staff. Recommend giving it a whirl.

Good food, nice restaurant, good service

First ever visit to this restaurant in Bishops Waltham, to meet a friend who I had not seen for several years. Nice food, good service.

Excellent menu, great atmosphere, super friendly!

I may of only been in Bishops Waltham for a year now but in the three different occasions d reasons I have come here it has been outstanding in its food, service and general warm you feel when you ar here love it

We went out for a dinner date with my husband to Georgio's last night and it was absolutely amazing. The staff was welcoming and attentive but not disturbing. The food was delicious, fresh and full of flavour. It actually was much better than food I have had recently in Rome.....will definitely be back soon. Also, I must mention the buzzing atmosphere, decor, old mediterranean music in the background- amazing experience! Thank you Giorgio's
