Halepi in City of London, Westminster

One of the best restaurants with a variety of clean and delicious food. Thanks to the owners of this restaurant for the quality of the food and the reception.

Service was nice and friendly but that's where it ends. Food had literally no flavour. I used to live in Greece and the food is so much nicer there. Seats are too close with people bumping me like 10 times within an hour. Overall expensive place with below average flavour.

One of the best restaurants to eat in London. They have an unusual shoulder with rice and are worth a try, but you must book before you come.

A very nice restaurant and the staff were very friendly. I ordered lamb shoulder, hummus and mutabal, all of which were excellent

The most delicious restaurant I have eaten in in London I will come back to him every time The quality of the meat is top notch The taste and flavors are authentic Greek Lamb shoulder 100% Souvla - lambs - ribs - oven-baked meat 100% Appetizers and Greek salad 100% The prices are very acceptable and worth what you eat There are ancient Greek restaurants around the world But this restaurant wins I highly recommend it, and reservations are necessary because there are no empty tables

Small family restaurant. Quality cuisine. Continuous service. A little expensive but you pay for the quality

Expensive, but worth it. One of the recommended Greek restaurants in London

A well-known restaurant in London, its prices are very high, and there is an old woman who owns the restaurant who fights with you if you don’t finish eating 😂😂😂 Reservation required by phone

Fantastic place. Great food, prices and service. Loved it

Excellent Greek restaurant. Food is nice and service excellent

A good table. for years the quality has always been there. Well done

I didn't like to eat them or shoulder meat The place is small and cramped. If, God forbid, you eat shoulder meat, it will suffice for four bears. Don't make too many side requests.

I had an unforgettable dining experience at Halepi! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the food was absolutely delicious. Chef Mo’s culinary skills are truly exceptional – each dish was a perfect balance of flavors and creativity. From the appetizers to the dessert, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Mo’s attention to detail and passion for cooking truly shine through in every bite. Highly recommend Halepi for anyone seeking an incredible meal in a welcoming environment!

Delicious food, the staff are friendly and helpful. Its a must to visit

Very fast service, we came with two people without booking at around 20.30 on Sunday evening. We're seated in less than 5 minutes. The food was delicious and the service was quick and friendly. Atmosphere is very authentic Greek and has nice traditional music.

Beautiful cosy place, food was magnificent. We got a large greek salad and a couple of small sides with olives and bread to share between two and it was all fresh, filling and delicious. Highly recommend for lovers if Greek cuisine.

Very popular amongst neighborhood population. Lots of seats. Had delicious spanakopita.

Autentic flavors! All the meat was so tender and portion was massive, worth every penny. Check my blog for a full review.

Beautiful and the food is excellent but the restaurant is very small And a reservation is required

Really enjoyed our meal. Took my daughter and she had the best time with her dad. ❤️

An accidental find just off Hyde park. Great food and fantastic service. But what sets this place apart is the taverna vibe and that eclectic staff flying around serving diverse customers. Don't go for the food go for the cultural experience.

Food is nothing special and bland, a lot of room for improvement. The service was slow and I was trying to get the attention of the waiters to get some salt and I couldn't get it. No alcohol free drinks available which limítate the people who want to enjoy their meals with something else that water. The place is cozy and original but it could pay better tribute to the greek gastronomy.

I was there 2 years ago and ate the best kebab and the best garlic sauce in my life, we went there by accident because it smelled delicious in the whole street. If I ever visit London again, it will be mainly for this restaurant. I hope the chef with long hair still works there, he is a master of cooking. The service is very nice and its cozy inside. The best Greek restaurant in London.

Absolutely amazing……. The food, the people and the atmosphere. Where here for lunch…… looking forward to try it for dinner

Everything about Halepi is PERFECT!! From the atmosphere to the excellent service to the delicious food!! Halepi is now easily one of my top 3 restaurants in London. Every single item we ordered was DELICIOUS!!

Best Greek food me and my family have had outside of Greece to date! Just like my grandma’s kitchen back home - thank you for an incredible experience, meal and the great hospitality ☺️

Extremely disappointed with everything. Over priced and over cooked bland food

slay vibes slay staff slay food .. wooooheee.. free turkish delight as well (very greek)!!

Our order was brought very quickly. Amazing service and cozy atmosphere. Very kind waitresses. Food is delicious.

General view is not bad 1) Meze’s are quite small 2) A bit expensive ( if you compare to the other Greek’s ) 3) So crowded 4) So noisy 5) Tables are so closed to each other. 6) Foods are average 7) Staff is almost ok 8) Ambiance is ok Do I go next time? Hmmm I don’t think so.

Incredibly good restaurant with Mediterranean and Cypriot cuisine, with an exceptional setting that takes you on a trip to the Mediterranean. They have an extensive menu where they offer typical Greek, Lebanese, etc. dishes. As for the staff, they were very friendly, helpful and very professional, we liked that a lot. Everything is neat and clean and the seats were comfortable. As for the food, the 'beef stifado' 10/10. Highly recommended, because it was incredible, very tender, smooth, the sauce extremely good. We also ordered 'chicken kebab' with roast potato, and it tasted very good, however the chicken and potato were a little dry. Otherwise everything was great, the location was excellent and the price was normal for the area.

My froend take me to that restaurant. I was not expecting too much but i was wrong. We started with amazing greek salad. Than have chicken soup and minestrone. For main dish we take lamb and chicken souvla. We were told that lamb was great and it is indeed but chicken was above all expectation.

The food is great especially the meat side of the menu, the only downfall the space is quite small.

As read on other reviews, we concur that you need to be skinny to go to this place. My Greek wife and I went as a family of four with a baby. Our son said he could not taste the meat. The salad was marinated nothing ‘special’ other than the price. No facilities for baby changing and people are crammed in like sardines. The fittings and layout of the restaurant are beyond old so no investment made for decades into this restaurant and this is passed off as ‘authentic’. Bills are hand written …

One of the best greek places, family ran and the food is 10/10. Ps you have to say hello to Kosta the owner his passion say everything..

Loved their food and service, but the place is extremely small!

Amazing food. Highly recommended 👍🏼

Finally tried Halepi, and I wish I had found it sooner! I’ve lived in the area for a while and somehow never came across it, but I’m so glad I did. The Greek food was amazing, and the portions were really generous. The house Greek salad was so fresh, and the marinated tiger prawns were definitely a favorite. We tried a variety of dishes, and everything was great. The atmosphere is super cozy, which just makes the whole experience even better. Would absolutely recommend and will definitely be coming back!🦑❤️

Really tasty lamb chops and lamp in the oven. I can visit there just for the meats however no one makes me believe a bottle of ouzo is 120£ if the price is £15 in the supermarket. It’s £70 even in the most expensive Greek restaurant in London. The restaurant overall is reasonable price but I’m not sure if I try here when I gather my loves with an Ouzo spirit.

Food was brilliant, venue was cosy, the service was friendly but lacked in attentiveness (had to be reminded about drinks and bread a couple of times), though it was a full restaurant at peak time on a Saturday night. Either way, would certainly recommend!!

Excellent experience. Lovely staff. This is an intimate restaurant not far from Queens way - worth booking as it gets busy. We had the lamb (klefticon) and hallumi both of which were excellent. Balaclava for dessert was also a good choice.

Very friendly and authentic greek restaurant. The grilled pork, beef stew, and baby lamb roast leg were fantastic, highly recommended and portions are well sized. Excellent quality of ingredients and very authentic cooking

a great nite out, amazing atmosphere and great value a real experience and one not to be missed!

A beautiful restaurant with delicious and delicious food

Arguably the best restaurant I've been to in London so far, delicious good quality food in large portions and good meat and fish. Group of 8 and had a feast. got the maze meals for 6 and there were 8 of us and we got meze starters with pita, and then big plate of fish and meat. really good. and great atmosphere. loved it. will return and 100% recommend.

Closest I can get to home in Greece. Halepi is by far one of the best Greek restaurants I’ve had the pleasure to visit in London. Do not skip on the lamb shoulder and its trimmings, and I 100% recommend the aubergine salad. Phenomenal. Will be returning at the next opportunity!!

Incredibly homely, both in atmosphere and food. This will become a regular favourite haunt of mine.

My money was not good enough to eat here. My husband and I stopped by after a day of exploring for dinner. We waited by the door for 10 minutes before someone decided to approach us. That whole time, we just stood there like two big Barneys looking at each other and the server. When we we finally greeted, we were told that there was a private event and that there was no space for us. Understandable if that was the case. They had a large party that was celebrating a birthday and a few couples scatter on different tables but not a private event. Plus there were 4 empty tables to which we assumed reservations since it was ‘a private event’ We said no problem and wouldn’t mind placing an order for take out. They said, ‘ we don’t do that in person. You can call and place and order.’ As he proceeds to hand me a business card. So we left on our 1 minute walk to our stay and I called them. And called them, and called them and called them for 15 minutes and no one picked up. Mind you, the walk to the restaurant is 1 minute away. So after 20 minutes, I walked back to the restaurant and the place was empty. As in the big group for “private event” was gone and 3 tables of couples were left. I proceeded to ask to place an order for take out and was told I had to call. I explain I’ve been trying for 15 minutes and when the man picked up his phone, they have the phone off the receiver so it wasn’t even gonna ring. At this point, the man let me place my order and I said I’d be back in 20 minutes. I returned 20 min later for our food. Basically unseasoned food that was extremely oily. We ended up throwing the food and our money away and ordered from another place. The two starts for food cause their salad was alright. Save your money and the feeling of being unwanted if you’re a reason of ethic minority.

Long time costumer at halepi and its my favourite greek restaurant in the world ❤️

Really poor experience. Incredibly overpriced, food was quite bland and a lot of the dips in the starters section are not freshly made. Do not buy the kalamari, it’s from frozen and it’s terrible to chew. The lamb was very underwhelming. The portions of rice and chips were insultingly small. Worst of all was the aggressive old lady that is borderline neurotic and incredibly rude. PS. That is not how you cook saganaki, that is not how you make melitzanosalata, nor how you cook kleftiko. Doubt that Greek or Cypriots visit that place more than once.

It deserves 5 ⭐️, really everything was perfect, Lamp was too delicious

Our experience at Halepi in London was really disappointing. Not only was the food overpriced and average, but the service was some of the worst we have ever encountered. First, we were overcharged for the tzatziki, apparently to increase the service charge, which is completely unacceptable. In addition, the waiter decided on his own to bring us a large portion without asking us. When we asked him about it, he replied rudely: "Well since there are five of you, I assumed you needed the big one!" And the worst part? When we expressed our displeasure at the arbitrary charges, the same waiter quipped, "I work with Arabs and Englishmen," implying either that he didn't want us there or that we weren't important customers to him. On top of being incredibly rude, we were also charged a 'cover fee' and a 'service charge' even though the service was unacceptable. Halepi may have a good reputation, but our experience was below average and extremely irritating. With so many restaurant options in London, there's no reason to waste your time and money here. This is not Halepi, it is BULLSHIT! That's what it should be called. We do not recommend and will not be visiting again!!

Don’t be put off by the uninspiring shop front, or by the old fashioned interior decor, as the food is the nearest you’ll get to food like your yiayia (Cypriot grandmother) used to make. This is a family run restaurant where everything is home cooked and authentic.

This place was amazing. First time I felt at home since being in London. Service was superb, especially Mrs. Tina, she was amazing. The food was delicious aswell! I highly recommend this place.

Food wasn't good, staff was a bit arrogant and just wanted to make a lot of sales... Small dishes weren't enough for them.

The food was absolutely incredible! The hummus was particularly good, but every item we ordered was excellent.

Wonderful and unique, but the place is narrow and crowded, which means an appointment is required

The place is small, but affectionate and psychologically comfortable. All the workers are nice and make the place beautiful. The owner of the place has a nice mood, like the food. And let us not forget the pictures of King Salman, the owner of the place. May God prolong his life. He ate from them. May his heart be well♥️ 🇸🇦 The hospitality was olive and it tasted very delicious 👌🏼 We ordered hummus, Greek salad, and lamb shoulder. It comes with rice and lamb stock with a side dish. The meat is delicious and luxurious. I loved the food and we will return to it, God willing 💐♥️

Really lovely! It has this authentic greek taverna atmosphere that feels very warm yet sophisticated. Would definitely recommend

A fantastic find near the Lancaster Gate Hotel! This cozy Greek restaurant is always bustling, and we were lucky to get a table. Seating is tight, but it adds to the charm—great for meeting people from all over. Service was quick, and the food was outstanding. A must-visit if you’re in this part of London!

Yet again influenced, Over hyped, overrun. Booked for 7.30 pm , arrived 10 minutes early and they had given our table away to seemingly to a tiktoker., who had talked their way into the restaurant through the owner. Told to go over to the pub across the road and they would retrieve us in 10. 20 minutes later walked back and was given a table by the till. Food distinctly average, fake garlic, and lemon over everything ,lamb main event over cooked /possibly precooked, border-line dry. Potatoes tasted like yesterdays. Scollops ok £10 each ,prawns definitely tasted like their from the freezer, no flavour £10 each. Then the bill, Overcharged on starters, charged for large portions - £8 then up to £11, and wine ,12.5 % service ,£2 cover charge. Don’t like smoke and mirrors on the bill. No great.

Vi fik en stor tzatziki - svarer til en lille i Grækenland. Smagte mere af kommen end af tzatziki. Saganaki var brændt. Validate stor portion var heller ikke særlig stor. En lille portion pommes. En vand og en lille flaske vin. Uhørt pris på 85 gbp. Kan absolut ikke anbefale stedet

What an amazing cosy place and such friendly staff.

The restaurant has a good reputation and their food is delicious, according to what I heard, but this is what happened to me at 1:32 pm on Sunday evening. I do not know why the employee in charge of the reservation raised her voice and spoke to me sarcastically as if I was deaf. The tables were more than 12 chairs empty, and she told me that because I had a child I had to make a reservation and wait for an hour without justification. I left the restaurant and never intended to return. I ask the management to pay attention to such things to improve the handling. Customers (Arabs specifically) thank you.

The food is very ordinary, the behavior is very bad, they look like they look like Moroccans, the place is narrow and stuffy, people are sitting there exploiting people with pictures of Saudi kings, I would never recommend it👍🏻..

The staff were so friendly and nice and i love the food everything was so great and delicious. I Highly recommend it 👍🏼😋

Try it, they have delicious lamb shoulder

The experience for us was horrible , te food wants hot and at 10:00 they put a very loud music that i couldn’t even speak to my partner , and the music was so irritant , that I asked then to put the music down and they’d didn’t , I realised many other clients started to go home . So I presume they do this to close the restaurant and you can’t even enjoy you time in table . The tables it’s all closed to each other and you don’t have privacy , horrible place , i won’t come back there again

Brilliant little Greek restaurant near hyde park. Very busy and cramped but serv8ce and food still great

Honestly, their meat is delicious. I ordered a quarter of a sheep, which is amazing. The staff have nice manners, and there are Arab guys and girls whose style is very nice, and the price is high.

The star is for me to stay and for the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques to eat there.. and the restaurant is not very typical of me and the food is not WOW to be honest.. the options are many and what is added to that is that the service fee they say is forced to be paid 😂 and yes of course after a long discussion I told him I will not pay a riyal for the service what will you do? .. He said nothing but until you return to this restaurant 🤣

Food is great, but the place really small.

The place was lovely, and the food was absolutely delicious, especially the lamb shoulder—it was exceptional! The staff was also really friendly, which made the experience even better. Highly recommend!

Really good neighbourhood taverna on a quiet street north of Hyde Park. The food and wine here are great vfm. We got a bunch of mezze starters, bread, olive, salads, large shareable meat and seafood main courses, and wine enough to satiate four people with hearty appetites, all for less than 50 quid pp. I especially liked the souvla, the Greek salad and the dips (hummus, tzatziki, taramasalata, baba ganoush). The restaurant filled up pretty quickly at lunch on a Saturday, so I recommend booking ahead.

Great Mediterranean food in Central London. Atmopshere is very genuine, food and service very good.

What a fantastic find. They fitted us in at the last minute and we had the most amazing experience. Authentic food with a buzzing atmosphere. Loved it ❤️

Nice Greek restaurant, delicious lamb and chicken, nice staff , we liked the Vibe , friendly crew

The food wasn't as remarkable as they claimed on YouTube. It’s just an average Greek restaurant. Much to my chagrin, the service was terrible. One of the younger waiters told us that no dish on the menu was spicy. However, the octopus salad turned out to be very spicy—too spicy for me. When I mentioned this, the waiter’s reaction was highly unprofessional. He insisted, "It's not true. It's not spicy." Extremely unprofessional.

The best kebab restaurant and shop in London The restaurant is small in size, but it has a history and has been visited by well-known international figures The food is delicious without being pretentious We ordered lamb, rice, soup, hummus and salad Excellent quantity, great taste The service is fast Food is halal.

Used to be much more better but still worth to go to

Well that was fabulous. Lamb, lamb, lamb! Lots of other great food but our lamb was amazing and the team were so helpful and friendly.

Really wonderful service. Cosy, little restaurant. Highly recommend the 7 pieces starter.

It is delicious every once in a while and it is halal, this is the most important thing, and its price is considered high.. but the place is narrow and dark

The food was amazing and reasonably priced. The place has a comfy atmosphere.

Authentic Greek in London. I love it. Great food and good service.

Very basic, not bad food, however, nothing special that make us want to come back. I live in Cyprus and know Cypriot greek food. Also, I am a chef myself. I had a shock to see the price list for CY wines. The only 2 wines which presented in the list are the cheapest table wines which you can buy for €4-5. In Halepi those wines offered for the price of £24/ €27.... Atmosphere was good, but food was not so good...

Before ordering, verify the account Eating is okay O God, praise, thanks and praise be to You

Food is delicious and atmosphere lovely but the very much hype make it slightly overpriced.

Amazing food and atmosphere! Really enjoyed! It’s a great experience

We have ordered the Greek stile baby lamb ( klifton) for one person , we ordered two orders , and unfortunately the lamb size is never baby lamb the piece size and meet color is not for baby lamb. I have spoken to restaurant staff and informed that I will genuinely provide our honest and fair feedback. That’s why I have 3 out of 5 for this experience. Never know you may find baby lamb during your visit but during ours we weren’t fortunate to have

Great atmosphere, is like I was a Greek village taverna! The food was excellent and so close to the authentic Greek food Wonderful work from the owners and the staff

Don't go there Price are expensive, food and place is bad Never again Advice to all Arabs, especially Gulf Arabs The restaurant is not worth a visit, save your money for a better place

The taste is delicious The service is very good The atmosphere is not suitable. The place is very, very narrow and very annoying. The chairs are next to each other and it is difficult to enter and exit. Even photography. I was not able to take pictures due to the narrow place.

Not a traditional Greek Cypriot restaurant , more of a Middle eastern/ Arab style. Rude staff and very inattentive service will not go back for sure.

Fantastic cuisine, pleasant music and good service

The best Greek restaurant in UK!

Great food.. Not up to the reputation but very good.. I chicken soup was off. The appetizers platter was so so. Greek salad is amazing ans refreshing. Lamb chops were very delicious but a bit over grilled. Kalefticon was good expected it more tender. The galaktpbouriko was average. The host Tina is great and very welcoming.. The waiters were all very friendly.. The place was warm and a bit over crowded. Make reservation ahead. The prices are reasonable

Lovely and very reasonable restaurant. We enjoyed a large Christmas get together at Halepi and the atmosphere was buzzing with plenty of food and drink on offer. We’ll be back next Christmas!

Very tasty food and great atmosphere, you will not regret at all 👍🏼

The meat is very delicious and the quantity is large The place is tight The service is very wonderful Reservations are required more than a day in advance. Also, if you want a shoulder, a reservation is required The salad is enough for 4 people, quite a lot Hummus is delicious
