I am absolutely blown away by how good this little place is. The food is unreal! It's fresh and so delicious. The service was exceptional. The person that helped me was very friendly and helpful, and they helped me choose food to suit my dietary needs. I ordered both vegetarian and vegan options - I was so surprised by how many vegan options there were, and very grateful! I will definitely be back, and will be recommending it to everyone I speak to.

This places deserves more than five stars. Top notch food and fantastic people behind the counters makes this little place a must visit. There are a handful of places where you get greek food across Edinburgh, but no where this homely. I've tried a range of their savoury and sweet pastys and pies, and I love how filling they are. Excellent value for money and keeps your tummy happy. The sweet ones, especially, are not overtly sweet - they are delicate and has achieved balance. The best way to enjoy the pies and pasties are by buying two - one you eat while you walk to the beach, and the second you eat while you are at the beach.

Best coffee in Portobello? I am just putting it out there. It's my favourite anyway. Now with a seated area and toilet, this great wee coffee shop is an institution in Portobello. Friendly, great coffee (did I mention that?) and delicious cakes too. They also do warm savoury things and they have various Greek deli items like olive oil etc. Not to be missed!

It's not bad. There is no table service but there is an area to sit. I only had a latte which was very nice and averagely priced. The pastries and cookies aren't my thing and seemed to be priced at the higher end of the scale (around £3 to £3.50 each) However, by all accounts, they are very good. The chap serving was very quirky but nice. Would I go again...... Maybe.

We were at the Conference Centre getting our Covid jab and they are only just up the road..... At least that was her excuse. Several large frozen pies bought but the villain in the script is Bougatsa Vanilla. Very nice, she always finds an excuse to eat the first piece within an hour of getting home and then say we might as well eat the other half, just to remove temptation.... We're considering ordering on-line and collecting since a small queue had gathered outside as we chose the items and had them all wrapped

We enjoyed what we bought the first time, so had to return. Living at the other end of the city, we were buying the frozen ones, ostensibly for Xmas. Each one we pointed at (Due Covid you stand in the street at the door) was explained and once the server had the 4 items all wrapped, he then wrote a note with baking times & temps. I mentioned Xmas - We need to go back to get more Bougatsa Vanilla. We've eaten the 4 portions......

As this is newly opened and just across the road, I popped in for lunch. I was pleasantly surprised by it being quite busy, but I was quickly seated. A waiter quickly attended. As it was lunch I avoided Moussaka, Retzina and Ouzo, opting for a Chicken Wrap and a fizzy cherry drink, Loux. Quickly served. Very pleased with my selection. So I left, helped out by one of the waiters, as I am disabled and there's a tricky step just outside.

Not sure why this place is still Taxidi on TA as it has changed its name to Mitsos and has a slightly different menu! Anyway, we’ve been here several times and it’s always been excellent. Latest lunch was a mix of grilled meats and small plates, all cooked beautifully with authentic flavours. Recommend the mixed grill if you’re hungry- it’s meant to feed 2 but the portions are huge, could easily do 3 or 4 with extra chips and salad. Staff are lovely and very helpful. Interesting selection of Greek beers and wine.

We had breakfast here twice on a trip and we liked it! The menu was not that big but the sandwiches and smoothies were great. Basic filtered coffee would have been great, but it seemed impossible to find from anywhere else either. Customer service was great. The prices were different for take out and eat in, which was a bit odd (take out was a bit cheaper).
