The Real Greek - Dulwich in Southwark

The food was delicious, and the customer service was friendly. I like how the food is served on the stands. Overall, it's a nice, pleasant atmosphere with great decor. Usually I order from here once in a while so it was nice to visit the restaurant for the first time at Christmas.

We visit the real greek dulwich fortnightly. This time we've been there for the mother day's lunch. It was good food and great service by Alex and the manager Ferit feed us with a great dessert on the house. Also my daughter has tree nuts and peanut allergies and the kitchen do their best to avoid any reactions. Thanks

That place has amazing servise and food. Lot’s of thanks to Realgreek and to manager Ferit

The welcome, attendance to us, the delicious food.

good servise and delicious food.Worths everthing.

Very friendly staff, lovely food and great prices. Only thing I would improve is the wifi.

Had a great lunch at The Real Greek today. Food was fresh and delicious, decor was lovely and our servers Alex and Desi went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely be returning soon

We went The Real Greek, Dulwich Village, on 19/03. We’ve been many times, and have never been disappointed. The food is always great, and the staff always give us a warm welcome. We’ll be back, thanks for looking after us. Unfortunately we only took a photo of our desert, we’ll do better next time.

Authentic greek food, very nice

Delicious food and a wonderful atmosphere. The Omega Alpha lager is fab and of course, the halloumi fries are to expire for

Wonderful food, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Location is great too, located in Dulwich village, love coming here.

Love this Real Greek restaurant. The waiting staff, cocktail makers and manager are all just lovely. Even when my voucher did not work the Manager honoured it saying that happy customers are what matters. The food is always delicious and the portions are fab. Lovely, bright decor make for a charming and relaxing atmosphere. It's definitely one of my favourite places. Just pop in, reservations aren't always required. You won't be disappointed 😍

Fantastic experience, thank you everyone.

Amazing food and attentive staff. Lovely restaurant with a great team. Thank you for your hospitality. Desserts are delicious.

Great place with absolutely amazing food and host!

For starters, let me make it clear that we did not have a sit-in meal at The Real Greek. I had ordered food to be delivered through Just Eat - I had organised a special film night for myself and my two children. FYI, they thoroughly enjoyed Shrek. As you can see from the photos, I had ordered that the food be delivered by 1830. I placed the order by 0900. When it had not arrived by 1900, and the app was showing that the food was still being prepared, I called the restaurant. The restaurant claimed that the food was ready for delivery by 1844. I don't know who is responsible for updating the app, but clearly that was not the information that I had. The person I spoke to asked what they could do about it. I suggested that they might apologise at least. They didn't. Once the order arrived, i was disappointed to find that they had not removed the mint yoghurt from my daughter's halloumi souvlaki despite the request. My daughter did not enjoy this food one bit. She stated that the chips and bread were soggy. As you can see, she left a lot of this dish. She also felt sick afterwards. My son felt much the same about his souvlaki. As for me, I had ordered the fried calamari and halloumi fries. Apart from being cold, the calamari was like rubber and the batter was soft and oily. The halloumi fries had been soaked in too much honey. They were too sweet. The Real Greek (Dulwich) ruined what I had planned as a special evening. I hate leaving negative reviews, but the lack of any concern from whoever answered the phone, and the poor quality of the food, leaves me with little choice but to declare I would not recommend The Real Greek (Dulwich). In any way.

We had a lovely evening with our friends and family. Amazing food and service from all the team. Smiley faces and delicious food what do you want from a family atmosphere restaurant. I recommend to try Greek orange cake, delicious.

I like that the food is delicious and everyone is so nice and it is a good place to talk to family

Great brunch and family experience

Staff really friendly and professional. Food and coffee come quickly.

Great service and lovely food. Daisy was very polite and helpful. Will definetly visit again.

Hi, I go back regularly. Food always amazing, and so well prepared. The staff are polite, especially Alex and Samuel. They look after my table very well like always. The general manager is very kind and always offering a cup of tea or a dessert on the house.The ambience is nice. Truly a lovely place. Highly recommended.

Great food great Service. Thank you Ferit

Lovely branch of Real Greek, food is good and service is particularly good. Very family friendly in the daytime.

First time visit to this branch and will be coming back. The service was friendly and we didn't feel rushed at all. The food was great, good portions and tasted really good. We came for my daughter's birthday and the manager arranged a free slice of cake for her, with a candle! She was over the moon. Thanks again, see you soon!

Great lunch. Sat outside and it was lovely. Samuel was our server and he was friendly and polite and professional.

Food was delicious and service was great!

Food was delicious, really nice vibe. Brilliant service, Romeo and Sam were lovely!

lunch menu was delicious and great value for money. I got the lamb meatballs as the main and they were fantastic, great service as well.

Appalling service and cold overcooked food. The felafal wrap was dry and dull and the halloumi chips were oily and soggy.. The pork kebab was dry and hard. The waiter was indifferent and yet the restaurant was not busy.

A delicious souvlaki lunch with my sister in the sunshine, expertly served by our waiter, Samuel. We will be back!

The waiter forgot our order so we were kept waiting for about 45 minutes. when I reminded the waiter he immediately brought the food that had obviously been sitting getting cold. It was codl. The pork kebab was overcooked , dry and tough. The felafal wrap was dry and very plain. The haloumi chips were cold, soggy and swimming in oil. I all a very disappointing meal. I shall certainly never go to The Real Greek again.

Fared the manager was excellent host very cosy family restaurant

Excellent service. Came for a family meal for 3 people. The food and the service were fantastic. The manager was very helpful.

Our favourite Real Greek restaurant

We were there for my mum's birthday. The food was delicious, great service, friendly atmosphere. Would definetely go again.

The food was simply astonishing, and the service was outstanding! We got some really lovely Greek sweets since it was Valentines Day, but there was one problem-I was too full to have more of the great food! Must visit!

Really lovely lunch. They were very kind to my friends' child and went the extra mile to cater for her allergies.

Great service and lovely ambient! The stuff was so friendly and enjoyed having chat with them! Desi was amazing! Well done for the service

Nice service, a large selection of vegetarian dishes, and a bottle of delicious Greek olive oil on the table (you can also buy it here for £6- I think it's really good price for this quality). Thank you for a wonderful evening! :) Ps. Serving a frozen glass for beer is a quality that also deserves to be mentioned! Good job!

Super fresh food , amazing Greek atmosphere and Ferit was beyond an exceptional. We will definitely come back. Strongly recommended for Mediterranean food lovers

Superb evening in Dulwich Village at The Real Greek. Amazing food and service fair price and we felt to be transportated in Santorini again . Simply love it

A very well run restaurant! Staff are very considerate - I have quite a few allergies that were accommodated with care. Even when I wanted a menu item that may have had traces, the manager, Ferid ensured they would prepare the dish to accommodate my allergies. 5 stars, wonderful spot!!

Had a lovely meal with my partner. The service was amazing! We loved the halloumi popcorn and sangria! The orange cake was fantastic too!! We will deffo go again ✨

Such a lovely friendly place. Excellent moussaka

warm Greek welcome and good food with great service

Quite an average chain Greek restaurant. Not dog friendly. Megan’s is a far better option.

We had a warm welcome from reception and seat promptly. The weather was very bad and the restaurant was all empty and all for us. We ordered some small plates and Christmas special meat wrap. The dolmas were very simple, salty grape leaves stuffed with rice and tomato flavour. Could have added few pine nuts for texture. Prawn Saganaki was very well done . Prawns cooked to perfection. Octopus was bit fishy and hummus was dry. And the meatball wrap was with french fries tucked inside the rap which was not so great. Overall a chain restaurant with average food in an affluent Dulwich village.

Unreal food! And lovely service

Nice staff, nice atmosphere and good food

Attentive service wide selection of foods and servings. Relaxed atmosphere did not feel hurried. Definitely come Gain

Servicio increíble, comida y gran ambiente. El servicio fue el mejor. Una muy buena selección de vinos griegos, desiertos, acompañamientos y platos principales.

It's totally worth it. We are definitely coming back soon.

Tasty food, great and friendly staff.

Idiotas. Es domingo para almorzar y los lugareños están abarrotando y haciendo cola para comer en el pueblo. Algunos incluso enfrentan el frío amargo para sentarse afuera en las únicas mesas disponibles si no tiene una reserva. Pero justo al otro lado de la calle, en vista de estos amontonados - en los comensales es un restaurante sin las hordas que sirven los platos más deliciosos de inspiración griega entregados a la mesa por el personal de camareros atentos y la atención constante a nuestras necesidades. Civilizado y acogedor y muy asequible. Así que mientras los lugareños pagaron de más y se irritaron por la espera al otro lado de la carretera nos atendieron en esplendor y con amor. Idiotas locales.

La hospitalidad es increíble aquí y se le dará una cálida bienvenida. La temperatura aquí era la correcta. Para empezar, opté por el pan plano griego cálido con hummus. El pan plano era perfecto, con su textura suave encantadora y sabor de orégano sutil increíble. El hummus tampoco podría haber sido mejor. Teniendo en cuenta estas cosas, el arranque era perfecto. Para mi principal, tenía la envoltura de souvlaki de albóndigas de cordero. Sentí que esto era bastante simple. Las albóndigas tenían una textura perfecta pero les faltaba algo de sabor. Definitivamente siento que deberían haber tenido más riqueza. Además, creo que las patatas fritas deberían haber tenido sal, pero esa es mi opinión. Los tomates y cebollas estaban deliciosos. Para terminar, tuve la tarta de queso de bayas mixtas de postre. El queso tenía un delicioso sabor a vainilla y el coulis de bayas mixtas no podría haber sabido mejor. Sin embargo, no había suficiente coulis para toda la rebanada de tarta de queso, así que pedí más, y felizmente me dieron más. Con el coulis adicional, mi postre era perfecto.

Thank you Real Greek for a fantastic evening! We were a large group celebrating two birthday's and all the staff were very welcoming and kind. The food was amazing, especially the spanakopita, chicken monastiraki and halloumi fries which were delicious! The manager generously offered us a free ice cream for the birthday boy and a metaxa for all the adults on the house to celebrate the birthdays. I highly recommend the Real Greek in Dulwich if you want a lovely night out!

LA NOURRITURE TROP DE SAUCE DANS LES PLATS A TAPASSE LES CREVETTES SERAIT MIEUX BIEN GRILLÉES A L'AIL ET PERSIL ET SANS CETTE SAUCE LIQUIDE DE TOMATE IL Y AVAIS AUCUN TESTE LES BOULES DE VIANDE PAS DE GOUT ??? SEULEMENT LE HOUMOUS ÉTAIS DÉLICIEUX JE M'EXCUSE DE VOUS DÉCEVOIR MAIS ILS FAUT VOUS LE DIRE C'EST DOMMAGE CAR J'AIME BIEN LE REAL GREEK ET C'EST A COTER DE CHEZ MOI ET JE VOUDRAIS QUE LA NOURRITURE SOIENT PLUS ÉLABORER FAITES QUELQUES CHOSES CHANGER CE MENUS AVEC DE LA NOURRITURE DÉCENTE ET PLUS DE LÉGUMES CE N'EST PAS COMPLIQUER ?? JE VOUS REMERCIE BIEN A VOUS

Un buen restaurante en el pueblo de Dulwich, pero la comida era muy promedio. No estoy seguro de volver. La comida no parecía fresca y las envolturas eran masticables.

Really enjoyed our lunch today . Food was lovely and fresh and the Greek orange cake was delicious . Staff very friendly . Would highly recommend .

Staff were very good. Food was very good. Had a great evening

The food was good however we had trouble using the fork discount which soured the end of the meal.

Este es un gran restaurante. La comida era buena, también era moderadamente barato. El servicio sin embargo fue excelente, esto se debió tanto a Sami y Alex que fueron atentos y amables. Estos dos hicieron nuestra comida excepcional. La única manera de mejorar nuestra noche era el clima para ser cálido verano soleado por la noche y no una fría noche húmeda de otoño

The staff were very pleasant and attentive and it was a very relaxed place to eat. The food however was very average, the mains came too early while we were still eating the starters and not therefore as hot as I would have liked.

It was really nice to visit your restaurant. Verona is the perfect waitress, always smiling ). I will come back 100%

Entramos sin reserva y nos cuidaron de inmediato. El menú era interesante y variado, y nuestras preguntas sobre algunos de los elementos en él fueron respondidas para que pudiéramos ordenar con conocimiento de causa. El feta picante y el pan plano eran excelentes. También disfrutamos de la moussaka, albóndigas de cordero y paquetes de espinacas. Probamos los bocados de bacalao salado, pero eran un poco masticables. El gerente era muy amable y servicial, y sin duda volveríamos para otro almuerzo.

Lovely dinner with friends. Great service and food. We enjoyed the food. The only downside was closing at 10pm on a Friday evening, but hey, that's not the end ig the world.

I came on Friday to try the new menu I was amazed by the new Greek sangria, also liked the new lunch menu with more options available felt like I was in Greece 🇬🇷

Love the new menu! Delicious as always

Lovely food and even better service as always. Manager is always happy, welcoming and never forgets a face. Food was served promptly, warm and tasty. Custard pastry is always a fav of mine. I would recommend.

Lovely restaurant been to the Dulwich location a few times. Got here late but staff did not rush us to order, or eat.

Preciosa comida griega fresca y saludable. Tuvimos el picante feta dip y houmous con pan de pita caliente y crudités. El pincho de pollo estaba húmedo y sabroso. Las patatas fritas estaban perfectamente cocidas. El arroz también estaba bueno. El calamar estaba delicioso y crujiente. Los desiertos también eran divinos. El personal de espera era amable y profesional. Sin duda volvería. Una muy buena experiencia gastronómica. El restaurante es elegante también.

He estado dos veces en Groupon vale para establecer laberintos Excelente, siempre y cuando te guste la comida griega, por supuesto. El servicio es muy muy bueno. Ambiente y decoración muy agradable. Y el personal amable. Es una ubicación agradable y el aparcamiento es bastante fácil. Muy recomendable, .

Great evening, fab food, fun atmosphere and good service

My wife, son and I visited for a family dinner. This is indeed the genuine article. Very good quality food, combined with cheerful and attentive service.

Lovely waiting staff, with quick service and delicious traditional food. Couldn’t recommend more

Just enjoyed a really nice lunch here. Food choice was excellent and was well served by Theo, who was a great help in choice of food, and attended to our requests with pleasure and a smile. Would recommend this restaurant as a great choice for an easy and enjoyable lunch.

Brilliant service and excellent food.

Very nice greek food! We had 4 dishes between two people, grilled octopus, greek salad and grilled vegetables and halloumi skewer. Plus one glass of wine that the waiter didn’t charge us for

Pros : - Lovely Staff - Excellent food presentation - ok atmosphere I guess - fast service - beautiful restaurant Cons : - mediocre food ( Bland and tasteless not worth the money ) - Tap water !! - no table cloth / not even wiped table - no greek music - NO GYROS !!! Overall if you never tried greek food in your life then this restaurant is a “meh” I guess but otherwise a poor attempt or mediocre recreation of the food at best. First time visit probably last ever visit. It’s a attempt to keep things “ modern and cool ” you can have the best looking restaurant and best staff but if the food is bad and the customer doesn’t feel like they are in a taverna then what’s the point ? Honestly is “meh” for tourists or people who are not well acquainted with vibrant greek culture or delicious food.

Food tastes fresh and well made. Was served by a lovely waitress.

100% Greek food and lovely staff. We booked a table but were able to change it to one outside as it was a very warm evening. Very helpful waiter.

Food was good. Ambiance and service was good. Only point, portion for 2 people, is for 3, and is priced that way.

Enjoyed a low key evening with a friend sitting outside enjoying tasty food as the dusk drew in. Aubergine dip was delicious and the wrap tasty, Friendly service and good value.

Superb starters! The mains were also good too with a nice selection of dishes shared among us.

Popped in for an impromptu lunch, it turned into a long one! The Real Greek might be a chain, but it feels like an authentic village taverna. The food was full of homemade flavours and the staff friendly. Highly recommended.

We came today for end of school lunch and had the worst waiter. Worked in the industry for over 10 years and just disappointed at the service. We weren’t given menus, had to go get them myself (lunch menu) then saw there was a a la carte menu at the til when I was so tired of waiting for the waiter to come back to take our order. She was wearing sunglasses which would be fine but she just gave “I don’t care” attitude. If you’re unwilling to do the job well then don’t, it ruins the experience. Not even sure if we paid service but she definitely didn’t deserve any. It wasn’t actually busy like Rocca and the end of term, so actually very manageable but they just had us waiting and others for no reason.

Utterly delicious food with big portions and good value - their cold meze is to die for!!

I loved the appetizers and shrimp, they were delicious. I especially liked Spicy Feta Dip.

Very nice resturant, very clean and welcoming.

Great food, lovely staff, reasonable prices. Will be coming back!

It was very good price for the very good food which I enjoyed very much. I would highly recommend it as it has nice people, nice food and a nice atmosphere.

Delicious food, friendly staff, love the atmosphere.

Wow just tasty lunch, fresh ingredients, bourgouri was fab, the sun was shinning, fell like on the island of Skiathos. Love to taste their lunch menu in my lunch break 😋 from school, good conversation with the staff.

Tres bonne ambiance. On a aimé les plats. Dommages qu’in ne puisse pas casser mes assiettes apres. Personnel sympa et a disposition surtout le manager qui fait d’excellents cafés turc.

Manager was amazing friendly. Food was amazing,staff were very friendly. I will return

Beautiful meal! Manager was lovely! Staff are polite! Restaurant is cool and a lovely place! Will be back.

Lovely Greek food, nice and calm atmosphere inside. Must be really nice during the summer as there is seating outside. Service charge automatically added to your bill

this time I was disappointed, wet sticky table, dirty chairs, lamb meatballs very burnt, too much, same with chicken skewer, it was dry and burnt, bottle the tap water had some stains and should have been washed earlier
