Greek Eatery in Stoke-on-Trent

Came across this place today and thought we’d give it a try and boy am I glad we did. Service was excellent and welcoming and the food was great, fresh , very tasty and really well presented. This really was like being in Rhodes or any restaurant in Greece or it’s islands Excellent

A little Greek fix right on the doorstep! I’d been wanting to try the food from Anasma for a while. As a regular visitor to Greece and a foodie I always love the chance to visit a Greek restaurant. The frappe was fab, I knew exactly what I was getting with a Greek frappe. It didn’t disappoint. I had the dolmades (stuffed vine leaves) only thing I would ask for is if they could be warmed up next time. Salad was just the job, lots of flavour in the feta cheese with the oregano and capers. Will definitely be back to try a hot dish from the menu!

We received a gift voucher from our daughter who uses their bakery as her go to lunch stop from work. We did not book in advance as we did not realise it would be so popular on a weekday lunchtime. Having unintentionally arrived before the actual opening time we couldn’t have received a warmer welcome, inviting us in to have a coffee whilst waiting for lunchtime service to begin. We are both lovers of Greek cuisine after many years holidaying in Greece and we felt the food was superb, authentic, freshly cooked and it was very much service with a smile despite the restaurant being full within 15 minutes of opening. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Visited in the afternoon. My friend is a qualified chef and myself a foody. We both love traditional Greek/Cypriot food, sadly this place failed miserably (I am sorry,genuinely,to say). We both opted for the chicken souvlaki platter (not cheap at almost £20 each).The dish contained x2 sticks of 'chicken' souvlaki, chips,salad,pitta bread and a sauce of choice (we opted for tzaziki). The chicken was AWFUL,definitely NOT fresh,it was cheap,salty frozen chicken that tasted salty, processed and overcooked and not succulent. Even the cut up pitta bread was not fresh and the chips hard and overcooked. We didnt complain as I havent had a good week but this place is cutting corners and giving good quality Greek eateries a bad name. Will not eat there again!! Fresh prices for cheap drivel.

Wanted to try something "different" for lunch, nice environment, welcoming staff but meal very disappointing, Chips on both our dishes - calamari and mixed kebabs were almost cold. Mentioned this when asked if "everthing ok" but no action from the guy. Then asked by a lady server who referred it to kitchen and a bowl of hot chips provided so happy how the complaint was resolved. Overall the meat/calamari quite poor.Nice people but poor food.

On first entering the impression was that it was rather like a buzzy canteen, lots of groups and families eating in a not typically Greek restaurant setting, not the place for a romantic meal but as we were looking for tea at 6pm it was fine. We were greeted nicely and able to choose our table for two from a limited choice of 3. Service was prompt and friendly and we ordered starters, Tzatziki to share, Loukanika (Greek sausage) for me and grilled Haloumi for my other half. All were stunning well presented, in generous portions. Originally we both wanted to order Kleftiko for our main course but the waitress explained that their version was slightly different being served inside a pastry case. My other half said yes to this but I changed my mind and went for the Padaikia (lamb chops) instead. The portions were huge, in fact so much so we both agreed that if we were to go again we would share either of those choices as we were both defeated by them The quality, cooking and presentation of the food was really good. Now, about the Kleftiko, was it the typical Greek dish, no it wasn’t but was it a beautifully tender lamb shank cooked in a pie with gravy and potatoes yes it was. Personally, I prefer the more traditional version with tomatoes and lemons etc and I missed that but that doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy it, I did but it’s something to consider if you order this dish. We finished the meal with Greek coffees which were ok but not as strong as we like. Overall I would say that for casual dining, this is a great little restaurant offering good service, great food and value for money. Warning go with an empty stomach .

Went for Mother’s Day treat but on Saturday night , food was amazing and plenty of it. Would recommend it 5****. Worth every penny

Visited for the first time and will definitely be returning. A little bit of the Greek hospitality and terrific food in a lovely setting . Wonderful staff who make you feel so welcome. If you missing your holiday destination in these dark nights I would highly recommend this venue . Thank you Anasma for a great evening.

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I absolutely would! Could not fault a single thing. My partner and I love holidaying in Greece and being at Anasma felt like we were back there. The food, the atmosphere and the hospitality were second to none. A highlight for us was that they stock Alpha beer - it was our favourite when in Corfu so when we saw it on the menu we just had to have it. If you’re not sure what to have, my fella highly recommends the mixed grill. It has a little bit of everything and is cooked to perfection. We will definitely be back soon and most likely time and time again to satisfy our Greek cravings.

Excellent food from a varied menu full of tasty options. Staff were extremely pleasant and helpful in recommending dishes. Generous portion sizes. The bakery is also fab but if you don't have room for dessert you can buy one to take away...and I highly recommend you do! Will definitely be back soon.

Booked for 7 of us on a busy Saturday night. Service was excellent, prompt and very pleasant staff. All food choices were excellent. Very large portions. Cakes a must! Definitely recommend.

Exceptional food, very nice and authentic, friendly staff, quick efficient service. Only scored 4 as there were too many dogs in the restaurant for my liking, barking at each other and sat under tables, I'm allergic to dogs so its a real shame,Tables were cleared and cleaned very quickly after covers left. I'm not sure if I would dine in again solely because of the dogs, but I would order from here to take away and I did buy a cake to take home. Food 10/10 Staff 10/10 Dogs -10/10 Well worth going to, food is lovely

Wonderful family lunch, something a little different than Turkey post Christmas. Portions are huge and left feeling very full!

This was my second visit in a week, my first was with 3 friends and I had to then bring my husband here to show him how amazing it is. Delicious food and super friendly staff who all have constant smiles on their faces .

Very good food. It’s not cheap-but the quality is well worth it. You also get very good portions. The service is excellent and it’s very clean

First time visiting as did a Xmas shop and we’re starving so thought we’d give it a go, absolutely amazing we went for lunch we both had gyros and had a portion of the loaded feta fries then took a cake each home, the food was amazing I was surprised with how big the portions were and we had loads of feta on the chips they didn’t scrimp at all, the staff were pleasant and fast there’s no messing about we were hungry and we were seated and eating within 10 minutes of being there. Best not was the cake when we got home it was by far the best cake iv had we will be coming back all the time I love this little place

My chicken wasnot fresh at all no taste and too dry are portion was lots of greasy chips and when i ordered my food arrived after 8 to 10 minutes (we had lamchops as well)how can be ready because wasnot fresh

This was a recommendation from friends of friends of friends and decided that after the 10th curry in a row, it was time to challenge the taste bubs with a different cuisine. After only visiting the country 3 months ago and finding the first Greek restaurant EVER locally, it was hard to say no. The style of the restaurant isn't too fancy, which makes the atmosphere more relaxed. All the staff smiled and seemed happy to be there. Nothing arrived late, and each dish was well presented and of the correct temperature. You dont get small portions either, so value for money is up there. You will enjoy whatever you eat. The ONLY negative thing I thought was that the wine was quite expensive, but the food and service were worth it!

Lovely restaurant Great atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food gorgeous. But their was a down side . It was very cold outside and when people came in and left we kept getting a blast of very cold air .It spoilt our night apart from that we had a fabulous meal

Firstly the staff were excellent and friendly. The menu is extensive with plenty of options to sample a really authentic Greek restaurant that if it were not for the weather would take you to sunny Greece. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and the food was beautifully cooked and presented . There is a vast free car park that serves the whole of the Trentham estate with flat access to the avenue of shops and other eateries plus the garden centre. This is a lovely restaurant and a visit highly recommended for truly authentic Greek food with a smile.

We checked the reviews before visiting and they are accurate . On arrival we were greeted straight away even though the restaurant was full . No wait for drinks , menus . Staff are friendly and professional . Our food arrived quickly and it exceeded...

Anasma Greek Eatery is a new business, as you enter the welcome is friendly. The decor is nice, tables are always set which always gives a good impression I think. The menu is authentic, there's something for everyone, Gyros, stifado, kleftico etc, the Kotobacon and...
