Me and my partner booked a table for 2 and were absolutely delighted with the whole Greek experience. I’ve lived in Cyprus for a couple of years and can attest to the authenticity and quality of the food. The setting, the staff, the food and the drinks were such a high standard. The owner and server (Erin) were wonderfully friendly and were exactly the right amount of attentive. We ordered Brandy Sours after noting the key ingredient was, very properly, Keo Brandy and without exaggeration can say it was the best I’ve ever tasted. Each dish was freshly made, utterly delicious and brought to our table at a perfectly leisurely pace, exactly as described. We will most certainly be going back there and if you like authentic Greek food then I can’t recommend this place highly enough. ευχαριστώ!

Authentic Greek Cypriot food, drinks and decor. A little rough around the edges but that’s part of the charm. Service was friendly. Reasonably priced. Friendly bar that’s open just for drinks. Will definitely return and would recommend a visit for something a bit different.

The Greek Taverna in Sleaford may be 150 miles away from our Surrey home but the delicious food, in generous proportions, and tasteful décor made it easy to believe that we were ten times further away - on a summer holiday in Greece, rather than in Lincolnshire – in early January.What made the Greek Taverna so special, however, was the welcome we received from its owners, Nicos and Amanda. Their hospitality was as warm as any summer night on an Aegean island. While many businesses claim that customer care is important, these two are clearly genuinely passionate about what they do – and boy do they do it well!So, you’re privileged if you live in Sleaford or the surrounding area, as you don’t even have to travel even 150 miles to have a wonderful and authentic Greek experience. But if, like us, you live some distance away – it’s still well worth a visit. We’re sure that once you have been, like us, you will be eager to go back for more.

A group of 6 came for my friends birthday and unfortunately the food was average. Nothing particularly wrong but wasn’t the best Greek food I’ve had (very average) and the Kalamari was clearly cooked from frozen and very chewy. However that said, they made the occasion wonderful for my friends birthday. They decorated the table, provided birthday music and free shots and even let him smash some plates up typical Greek style! Would recommend for a good birthday meal and fun but possibly not if you are looking for a romantic meal to really enjoy the food!

I was invited to the restaurant after my grandparents & family had said how great it was & they wanted me to experience it. I could not agree more, it was an amazing experience. It was just like being on holiday & a weird feeling to step out in Sleaford!! I was welcomed with the friendliest approach & nothing was too much trouble. There was no rush, we had chance to sit & chat with the lovely owners. It was like going round to a friends for dinner & just made us all feel so special & like we were the only ones in the room. No words will sum up the experience, I would highly recommend to all & I know I would go back in a heartbeat.

Attended the restaurant for a meal with friends to celebrate a birthday, we had a Meze for 7 persons, every single dish was superb! Plenty to eat (with a doggy bag taken home, this was offered to us rather than having to ask for it, which is a bonus and makes you feel like the owner/staff doesn’t want the excellent food to go to waste). At least 8/9 different dishes, it was never-ending supply of hot food! The vegetarian dishes (courgette with onion and egg) were brilliant and the meat perfectly cooked. Will definitely visit again.

Visited here after hearing good things about the food, and we were not disappointed! Ordered a selection of food between 2 and all food was tasty and well presented. It was pretty quiet when we first arrived, but once there was more people the atmosphere picked up which made the place a lot better. Worth a visit if you have a free evening in the area!

The food was traditional and tasty and perfectly cooked and served. Hospitality was exceptional. The restaurant was quiet which can often be the case midweek, but it gave us the opportunity to chat with the owners on our first visit Our only regret is that it has taken us too long to find this place.

The restaurant is quite small and ‘typically Greek’ in layout and design. Menu is simple, but food is tasty. A bottle of house wine is just £14 and a main meal at around £12 makes this excellent value. Service is friendly. We will return.

We were staying at the Travel Lodge on the A15 roundabout and found that Sleaford had a Greek Restaurant, one of our favourite foods. It is set in a lovely part of Sleaford, on the church square, right next to the church. Amanda was really friendly and helpful. We simply pitched up and sat outside. We were told there might be a little wait, and we settled ourselves in, listening to the peal of the church bells next door as the bell ringers practiced their weekly chimes. Quite amazing.

We were taken her by our Son and Daughter-in-law, really impressed. We had the Meze and thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Amanda was very welcoming and an excellent host. The meal was well cooked and timely delivered. Having eaten Mezes often when eating in Cyprus this was a lovely "Greek/British" version. Nick came from the kitchen and greeted our table welcoming and he did with the other diners. I would love this restaurant to be closer to us down in King's Lynn.

Having been to cricket all day, we were really looking forward to our meal, and from the time we walked in, we knew we would not be disappointed. Our friends had all had a largish lunch, so they decided to sample several of the mese dishes and were not disappointed. My wife chose moussaka and I had pork served as kebabs on a bed of rice and we both agreed they were excellent. Our Greek desserts, whose name I'm ashamed to say I've forgotten, were also delicious. Sorry to say I was driving so it was coke for me but my wife enjoyed a glass of house wine.

We holiday in Greece or Cyprus most years as we really enjoy the food. When it was suggested we had dinner here, I had doubts thinking we might not get authentic Greek dishes. How wrong can you be..... From the minute we stepped through the door, everything was amazing. Not a huge menu, but I think that is always a good sign as you know everything is cooked to order. I started with a Tiropitakia which was absolutely delicious. I could have had more as a main course but then I would have missed the chicken souvlaki. My companions had the Mezze, a large selection of small dishes each one better than the last. Wonderful. Good Greek beer as well. Amanda took time to explain all aspects of the food to us. All in all, a very enjoyable evening which we hope to repeat soon.

Decided to give this place a try after reading several positive reviews. We were met by friendly staff and shown to our table where we then placed our order consisting of starters and main meal each. As it was a winters night the restaurant was fairly quiet. When the food arrived it all seemed to have been dressed in a very sweet drizzle which I think may have been honey, but it gave everything the same after taste. Admittedly my main of Cypriot sausage was pleasing. I really wanted to like this experience as the staff were engaging and attentive but the food seemed to lack passion on this occasion. We have travelled and holidayed in Greece many many times and enjoy cooking our own Greek recipes. I’m hoping that this was just one of those nights as there have been good reviews in the past.

We were a party of 6 and arrived 5 minutes before booked time. We were greeted with a little hospitality by a gentleman who we think may have been the chef (we didn't see him the rest of the evening) questioning why we were early (main door was open). When he realised the time he seemed to change his tone to a more accepting one. Service was a little disjointed at times but friendly. The food and atmosphere was spot on. With Greek music playing in the background and the taste of Greece - it was a great experience. Would go back again.

My wife and I visited the restaurant for a Saturday night meal after wanting to try it out for some time. We were welcomed by abuse from a local drunk stood at the bar and not by the waiting staff he was stood with, who I can imagine to some people could have left them feeling quite intimidated.Undeterred, we took our seats. We decided to try the Mezze. We were served an undressed salad, with pittas and dips, then waiting at least 40 mins for the next dish which was 3 tiny meatballs each but no salad because we'd eaten it during our long wait. This was pretty much how the rest of our visit turned out. Pecking at 1 or 2 offerings for eg 1 small chicken skewer each served 10 mins after our 2 prawns each. I felt the food was bland, and lacked flavor. The restaurant was cold, my wife ate her entire meal wearing her coat.The waitress was friendly, and explained the food but in all honesty I felt robbed at paying £21.95 per person. The food wasn't "bad" but I could make better food at home. Maybe if you order a main off the menu you may have better luck. I'm sad because we were really looking forwards to eating at this restaurant.

We took my parents as reading the website, the cypriot heritage boded well for a family who have spend some time in Cyprus. Although not a big restaurant, it didn't feel crowded or small. It's not a high end restaurant but looks and feels genuine. The staff were very helpful and overall the experience was good. The wine list, although limited, is very cypriot with keo beer and Aphrodite, Thisbe and St Panteliemon wines which delighted my parents. We opted for cypriot sausages, squid, keftedes (pork meatballs) and dips with pitta. Mains were mousaka, stifado, mixed grill and feta salad. All rounded off with baklava and pistachio ice cream and cypriot coffee. The whole family all agree the food was good and would be more than happy to return to try more dishes from the menu. Would certainly recommend if you enjoy genuine Greek food.

I love that this pretty little restaurant is tucked away in the market Square, almost hiding it's thoroughly original and rustic, Mediterranean interior, like a well kept secret. I also love that the atmosphere from the moment you open the door is that of an authentic Greek restaurant, tables filled with happy diners and the smell of the cuisine filling the air. All attention to detail in the decor and features, it's a very unique restaurant for this small market town. The chef and hosts were welcoming and they were happy to assist us with our menu choices, after we explained that we were a vegetarian/vegan couple and we were assured that every attention to detail would be applied by the staff to ensure that our meals were prepared cooked and served separately to the meat orders. I felt confident in ordering and my meal did not disappoint. Hot and delicious, so many flavours, our meals were delightful, tasty and extremely well presented.

Just had one of the best nights at the Greek taverna. The food was excellent, the staff were amazing. We celebrated our mum's 60th birthday there and we couldn't have asked for any more. One word brilliant thank you so much for making it a night to remember

We booked a table for 3 and ordered a round of drinks while trying to choose our food, we decided to order the mezze and were very impressed, salad, olives, dips, and warm pitta were brought out to start with and could be replenished through out the meal. A huge selection of courses were then served through the evening, the food was really tasty and authentic with everything being made from scratch, you must try the hummus!! The service was friendly and the chef even came out to talk to us about his food. We will definitely be back and recommend this taverna for a relaxing evening with great food

Has to be one of, if not the best greek restaurants I have been to. Wonderful food and great staff, and will be going back as soon as possible.

What a little hidden Gem!! Fantastic restaurant. Amazing food, very friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. Will be coming regular customers. Staff couldn't do enough to please their guests. Haven't tasted Greek food so good in a long time. Well done. Keep up the good work.

Group of four of us ate here. We had booked a table but not very busy when we arrived. Food was very good - only had starters and main course as full after that. Drinks were reasonable too.

One word is all that is needed to sum up this taverna but trip advisor insists I write more to get to this one word, so to sum up - fantastic.

We recently moved to sleaford and decided to check out this wonderful restaurant. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the chef and waitress who showed us to a table. The restaurant is intimate and it was perfect for a lovely meal with my partner. The lady that served us was unobtrusive and very attentive. We ordered the mezze and were delighted with the selection as well as the quality of the food. Everything was cooked from scratch and served at a leisurely pace. I can't pinpoint a certain dish that was our favourite as we loved it all. We will definitely be returning to this little gem.

We visited the Greek Taverna in Sleaford last night for a reunion with a family friend from Cyprus.We chose the meze option and were treated the the most fantastic array of authentic Greek cuisine.The salad starter came with four dips, olives and warm pitta. Service was prompt, yet discreet, allowing us to chat about memories. Dishes flowed throughout the evening, the salad and dips were replenished regularly and it would have been so easy to have believed that we were back in Cyprus except for the temperature outside!The dishes included moussaka, souvlaki, sheftalia, dolmades, keftedes and halloumi with lountza and so much more!! Every dish was mouth wateringly delicious, hot, and more importantly had not simply been reheated in a microwave! It is evident that the chef cares and prides himself on running a quality establishment, putting time, thought and care into his dishes.The evening culminated in a spot of plate smashing to the tune of Zorba the Greek. A memorable way to round off a memorable experience. Could not recommend The Greek Taverna enough. A word of warning though..... Go on an empty stomach and allow plenty of time, not because of slack service, but to allow you to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the numerous dishes you will be treated to.Thanks Nick and Amanda!

We went here tonight and had a lovely meal. My pork was tasty and my partners beef was really tender.It was quiet but the hosts made us feel very welcome. Really pleased to find out they had our favorite Greek beer Mythos so had to have a few, be rude not too. Music was typical Greek but not too loud so your were able to still talk to each other. Thanks for a lovely evening.

Popped in after work with my daughter for a quick dinner before heading home. We chose a selection of starters instead of one main course each and the staff were happy to oblige. The chef popped out to say hello which was a nice touch and the waitress was ever so friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our selection of starters particularly the squid, taramasalata and fab warm pitta. Left feeling very satisfied as the portions are generous. Loved the Greek atmosphere (especially Zorba The Greek playing in the background, not heard that for years). Lovely little Greek Eatery will def be back for after work dinner again. Thumbs up guys!

The food was NOT tasty at all, and expensive for what it was. NO traditional music, NO site of the owners (Saturday) NO WAY will we ever go back there or recommend it to others. My birthday evening meal out totally ruined.

Booked here for a family get together on a Saturday evening and it was very quiet in the restaurant. We ordered the meze which started coming out quickly but the dishes were nothing to get excited about, it seemed rushed preparation/presentation and plate after was put in front of us far too quickly, some overdone and nothing massively tasty.We visited a Greek restaurant in Lincoln last year and it had lots more atmosphere, many more dishes and well worth the money with various meat dishes, such as whole lamb chops served within the meze, however in Sleaford we all left slightly disappointed considering the amount spent and unlikely to return soon. If you order items individually perhaps it would be fantastic and enjoyable as I see from the reviews many love visiting but for us it wasn't anymore than a 'good' for us.

First visit and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Service was good albeit we had to wait half an hour for the the first course to be served. Food was very good and well presented and we would definitely go back.

Very early Friday evening. Nobody else there. Food very disappointing. Starter swapped without asking us, when taramasalata was unavailable and a dubious aubergine dip substituted. Stifado was passable but moussaka was truly horrible. Didn't like the rice, no vegetables on offer. Salad OK. Dessert was very hard baklava, served with vanilla ice cream although the menu promised mango and pink ice cream. Very poor value for money and the loo could be cleaner too!

We booked this place for a girls night out and cant praise it enough. I booked by email and they responded within 24 hours and even asked if the meal was for a special occasion!On arrival, dont be fooled by the unassuming exterior, the welcome was warm and the food wonderful!.Since we were not sure what to have we had the mixture of dishes and were fit tO burst by the end. Absolutely wonderful, lovely people, fantastic food. None of us could understand why it was so quiet, not that we were complaining!.Try here.. NOW!

food is good here and the mezze gives you a lovely selection of different foods. It is only a small restuarant but that is what gives it character. 4 of us ate and all enjoyed . Thanks will visit again

It had been a while since my last visit and visited with the family. The food was excellent as was the service and really enjoyed the evening. Starters of Burnt ends & the Squid were amazing. I had the Pan Fried Tiger Prawns with Calamari Nduja for mains that came served on a crispy garlic flatbread with sides of salad and chips and this was excellent. I had no room for pudding although my daughter had the Yorkshire Pudding dessert with ice cream and caramel sauce which she loved. Look forward to next visit and recommend to anyone 👍🏻

Always a pleasure to visit this cheery pub which just happens to sit directly opposite my brother's house. Staff are friendly and the food is great. JHB Bitter from Oakham Brewery is a great running beer too. We sat inside on this occasion but the beer garden is a lovely place to sit. Sunday roast beautifully presented. Worth a stop off.

Lambert'slocation-icon5 Cheyne LaneOther cuisines

Lamberts has always been one of our favourite lunch venues - good food, lovely building. It’s one we take friends to. However our last visit has spoiled that. One of our party has a strict diet due to chronic illness. They carefully picked and asked to change one item - halloumi. The poor response was a surprise and disappointment. When we suggested avocado the waiter was dismissive saying it was much more expensive - despite both being the same price as sides on their menu and the meal being £16 anyway. There was no offer of just doubling up one of the other items. They ended up with the halloumi they couldn’t eat. This response, in this day and age, was poor and upsetting; we had been so pleased that our friend had actually been able to join us on that day. The service across the whole lunch was cold. Not the usual warmth from the lady we usually see.
