The real greek marleybone in Islington

I was in London for one night and was staying in Marylebone and decided to try dinner here. It was later in the evening, and I hadn't booked, but luckily I managed to get a table. The weather had been gorgeous, so there were people sitting outside too. The food was excellent and filling, which was good as I was starving after a long train journey. The staff were lovely and helpful. Would love to come back and try more of the menu. Thanks again.

We had a very positive experience here 5 or so years ago. We happened to walk last, and entered with high expectations. All our hopes were dashed. The chicken souvlaki was so dry and tasteless. The spinach filo pastry was OK, but oily. Service was decent though. Has this become the Greek version of McDonalds ?

Was perfect I will go again . Lovely and perfect staff I recommend. We went for dinner with my wife was the best experience I've ever had.

From arrival we had a really great experience, lovely staff and incredible menu, just the right amount of guidance from our waitress, we drank the house white and it was delicious. We had a good selection of mezze dishes between us and they were all gorgeous, and desert was incredible too! Cannot recommend this place enough if you like Greek food and hospitality, a great find!

I never knew about this restaurant which my sister and I happened upon yesterday, we decided to have lunch and it was absolutely delicious and so so reasonably priced. I had the vegan plate with a variety of choices of cous cous, hummas which is the best I have ever tasted with just a hint of lemon, butter beans, butternut squash, chick peas and flat breads, with cucumber celery and carrots....My sister had the lamb meatballs with cous cous, tomatoes red onion tarimazalata flat breads and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommend for a light lunch or full dinner, excellent welcoming staff and service, and only £10 per each for our lunch. Excellent quality value and service. Thankyou the The Real Greek Marylebone staff and restaurant for a lovely warm satisfying visit and meal. FIve Star from me!!!

Weird place. Didn't seem to want to take our drinks or food order. Food OK, but service terrible. Nobody else in the restaurant and the main server put our two plates of food on the empty table behind us!!!!! When we queried this he said 'the order was for table 4'........(he took the order).........He did give us the food - but he wasn't happy!!!!!! When we got the bill we were going to say table 4 was paying.......!!!!!!!

Very poor quality food. Not freshly made - Deep fried . Tasteless tzatziki. Bland salads . This is Fast food at its worst !

Very nice atmosphere, great service and most importantly original and tasty dishes. Do highly recommend it for dinner. And next time I will be in London I will make sure I return.

Lovely food. Spoiled by an abrupt end to the evening with guests being asked to pay while they were eating and bright lights being switched on. Don’t bring your date!!

We booked a table in advance and arrived around 20.30. The food was good although we had to send some potatoes back as it was cold. The staff came at 21.50pm and asked us to settle our bill as they were closing, They did this to all the tables even those who had just received their meals. When we asked the waitress why they were closing up so quickly she said that they had been there since early in the day. This was a Friday night!! The couple at the table next to us said "they asked us to pay as we were eating, this isn't McDonalds". The next thing they did was to turn all the lights on full and at this point may of the customers just started to laugh. I love this chain of restaurants but I certainly won't be returning here in a hurry!!

Wonderful lunch with a friend. Food was delicious and atmosphere very pleasant. Excellent service from Anastasia who was very helpful explaining the menu to us and helping us choose from the wine list. We look forward to coming back.

food was really amazing, they have so many options and styles and the food fills you up. Anastasia was super nice

We really enjoyed going to The Real Greek and very glad it was open on a Monday. The food was delicious and the service excellent, and it was good value too. Couldn't fault it and will go back.

Wurden sehr nett vom Kellner empfangen. Das Essen war hervorragend. Die Etagere zum Teilen der Portionen ist eine hervorragende Idee!

First anniversary we got a complementary chocolate cake and the whole experience made our evening in very special ! Thank you

Geat place for a quick lunch! It was very lovely service and food came quick and hot . Definitely will come back!

The food was amazing, and the staff was great !! Me and my family enjoyed our time there very much !!

Such lovely food!! Everything was amazing and the food was rich in flavour as well as light. The place is really cute and the staff is lovely! 10/10

Perfect for a meal with family. We had the sharing plates and really enjoyed everything. I would recommend the pecan cheesecake for dessert. Service was very good and the atmosphere is lovely.

On our first night visiting London we wandered down Paddington Street on a rainy evening to The Real Greek and it was a perfect welcome to this beautiful city! We sat by the window with a lovely street view. The food was incredible and service was very fast! I would absolutely recommend The Real Greek Marylebone.

Very nice meal out. The sharing plate was very good value. Would recommend the meatballs and baklava. Good service, too.

This place was busy on a Monday lunchtime and having now been, I’m not sure why. It was droughty with the constant arrival and departure of delivery riders and service was slow and harried. I wanted to claim the free plate with a London marathon medal, it was difficult, the staff disagreed with what it said on the website could be claimed and made the whole experience feel awkward. The food was pretty good but the environment, service and value for money mean I won’t be rushing back.

The Real Greek restaurant Marylebone has been our favorite restaurant for many, many years, superbly friendly and kind, and polite team who looks after each of their customers with love and passion for hospitality, nothing absolutely nothing is a problem, delicious Greek food, and wine and beer. Well done to Anastasia and her whole team. Thank you warmly for your care at “our” small little Greek place at the heart of Marylebone.

Had dinner here with my 3 children. On a wet night this was lovely and cosy. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food is reasonable and the children meal is good value and they enjoyed it. We got one of the menus of...

We visited London and did a walk in to this restaurant after Googling child friendly places to eat. Although there is nothing specifically for children our kids absolutely loved the food. It’s never easy taking fussy youngsters out, and ours are no exception. The kitchen...

The staff were delightful but unfortunately the food was not. The calamari was chewy and deep fried in oil that should have been changed. The octopus looked great but completely tasteless. And as for the overcooked chicken it was of the worst quality without any...

Really disappointed with this restaurant, we travel to Greece a lot and was looking forward to trying the food here but was just flavourless and uninteresting Shame really that the food lets it down because it's a lovely environment and staff are pleasant

I lived in Cyprus for many years and still enjoy Mediterranean cuisine. The Real Greek didn't disappoint. The menu extensive, the food was authentic and good quality with good sized portions. Service was great and we were happy to pay the 10% service charge. I...

Decent food and nice service. Some dishes better than others, but for the money (discount via The Fork) it was good value.

Lo he pedido para llevar, es literalmente incomible. Los falafels no se parecen nada a lo que tienen que ser....

Pre-Christmas lunch. Very enjoyable options, including a rather delicious octopus, meatballs and prawns. Service was very good. Wine and beer also good. Pint of beer was much cheaper than the nearby pub.

Pre Christmas lunch with one of my oldest friends we love having lunch and some wine together on a regular basis. Saw this restaurant when walking past from our last lunch at another restaurant and thought menu looked great. Big disappointment food bland table so...

We came for a quick lunch whilst Christmas shopping and had their chicken souvlaki wrap. The chicken was dry and the whole ensemble including the wrap, the chicken and the chips were somewhat cold. Seemed as if they had made a batch which then just...

Really good tapas style Mediterranean food in stackable serving plates delivered to your table to be shared. Family friendly, small patio with seating available. Good wine prices and a kids menu. The tapas we ordered were all delicious and we would happily return.

very understaffed, we had to ask several times for food/drinks/bill they seems to prioritise Uber drivers over eat-in customers said to the manager the service was poor and he just shrug, never again

Small restaurant, nice menu but some items were unavailable, like moussaka. Very very slow service. The restaurant may have been understaffed. I noticed a number of diners trying to get the attention of the staff there. The staff looked like they were on autopilot and...

We have eaten in several The Real Greek restaurants now and have never been disappointed. The Chicken Souvlaki Wraps are great! Only thing stopping this restaurant getting 5* is the fact they didn’t offer us the lunch menu.

There were so many fantastic choices on the menu it was hard to choose so we over ordered. Everything was excellent nothing disappointed us. The food is fresh and flavorful. Well done! We do wish that the service was a little bit better. Don’t skip...

Really nice restaurant and good food, all tapas style. Great white wine as well. Had a lovely time and recommend this restaurant highly

My wife and I had Saturday lunch here last weekend and it was a delicious meal, some of the best small plates that I have tasted outside of Greece, we look forward to returning sometime soon

A decent and authentic Greek offering in a very convenient location. Most dishes are for sharing. The Greek wine is also good. Friendly staff

Only one waiter on service took 1/2 hour to take our orders then only served myself and my son with drinks, then served the staters that were asked to come with mains.... then served the rest of the table with the remaining drinks, there was...

Usually a nice casual dinner!! Was under staffed with slow service and lots of dirty tables not cleared! Always a bad indicator for a restaurant!

Gresk arroganse på sitt verste. Vi fikk anvist et bord ved ankomst, men ble deretter dessverre totalt oversett.

Had checked the website which said you could have set lunch up to 5pm but we werent offered that menu until we asked for it and the waiter checked his watch and he then gave us it. Much better value as included two courses. We...

Delicious Greek food with so many vegetarian options! Well done to this restaurant for making Greek food so accessible for Plant based diners!

After an amazing visit in madame tussauds, we had decided to end out great night in this spectacular restaurant!! I love how it’s quite secluded in such a busy street. I felt very welcomed by the beautiful flowers at the entrance and by the lovely...

We went there for lunch on a Saturday it wasn’t so busy and we were welcomed by the hostess and had the opportunity to choose the table as after minutes it got really busy and crowded . The food was amazing and really good presentation...

We had came upon this place whilst looking in need of a spectacular restaurant to dine at. We had noticed that it was quite busy yet we had been served in the matter of 5 minutes of us arriving at the restaurant. The food was...

Lovely greek food great atmosphere nice music and good service. Definitely recommend this place 100%

C'est une chaine que j'apprécie vraiment, surtout lorsque je suis en manque de saveurs grecques ! Le service est parfait...

I had booked a table the previous day. We were seated an promptly ignored for 15 minutes while diners who had come in afterwards were given preferential treatment because, presumably, they were friends with the management. After a while, my husband asked the waiter, as...

Disappointing taramasalata. We ordered Mousaka, a hot meze. It was served cold. We sent it back to ask for a hot portion. The same portion was returned to us. Hot dishes served cold are a health risk, and for the restaurant to return the same...

The Greek dishes we ate were of prime quality and incredibly tasty. At the local, you are surrounded by Greek elements that makes you feel you are in an authentic Greek restaurant! The staff was great and the price in the normal range.

Food is poor, service is poor and slow, cutlery and glasses are dirty, tables are sticky and dirty. Not recommended at all!

Amazing service and amazing food. Went in late and they still managed to find space for us. The food was brilliant and the dessert that followed was just as good.

I came here because of the vegetarian recommendation. The man who served was so helpful with my food choice regarding intolerances. It was delicious food and beautifully presented.

A very friendly atmosphere. The food was superb and the staff attentive and friendly. There was a lovely buzz of people enjoying themselves.

Awesome & authentic Greek food!!! Absolutely delicious food, clean and neat place to eat and good staff. Highly recommended and reasonably priced!

The food, the service and the ambiance were very good with one exception. They served a side dish of potatoes which were very unpleasant. On enquiry it transpired that they don't order their own potatoes and there is centralised ordering of food. So the chef...

I went yesterday 6/8/21 for the first time with my family, the service was excellent the food was very nice ( only complaint the grilled aubergine was too thick and not cooked properly and the sauce was bland but maybe how they do it in...

We went there to meet friends in London who already knew the restaurant and recommended it, especially as my wife and I are vegetarian. Our friends were right and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Superb, veggie-friendly food, well presented and great value especially for London. The...

I have never been before to this chain and was taken by a friend and it was worth the visit. The menu is extensive but we went for the lunch time special and we had "The Greek Trio" which was prepared and served well. The...

Stopped in for lunch and ate from the fixed price lunch menu, £7.95 per person in London! Amazing value. Everything was delicious and staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. The wine of our choice was not available chilled so we were offered...

Lovely food, lovely staff.Due to these difficult circumstances, we were afraid to go somewhere out to eat with my partner. luckily we found this little gem, such a lovely place, once we entered inside you can see that they took the right measures to feel safe and protective. The food was tasty, they had a good selection of wines to choose from, and lovely and polite staff. Big thanks to our cute, blonde waiter.See you soon.

We have eaten at most of the London Real Greeks but this was the most disappointing, It was a birthday treat for my partner and we were staying nearby, thrilled to find this around the corner. We entered, tables were too close together for comfort,...

Verschillende kleine Griekse gerechtjes werden geserveerd op een etagère. Alles was even lekker. Het was er rustig, we zaten heerlijk...

We went for the second time in this restaurant, and again it was worth it..... Staff was excellent and very attentive, and the food was very tasty.... we will definitely come back soon.

Estuvimos en el griego real en Marylebone el sábado por la noche.Aunque olvidamos reservar una mesa, logramos encontrar una mesa para 5, ya que era una noche muy ocupada. . . .comida muy agradable y sabrosa, y el servicio fue excelente y profesional de nuestro servidor George.Muchas gracias por la hermosa noche, definitivamente volveremos.

Went here on a rainy autumn night in late november.The spot is pretty small amd guess booking in advance is highly recommended. The ambiance is cosy and warm and thw staff is super friendly. As I was alone I went just for a selection of mezze and a lager. The food was really good and the bill was not higher than what expected to be in Marylebone area

There is not much to share about this restaurant, except that it is good to have somewhere to eat if it is pouring rain.

We had a family lunch here, very nice experience. Food and service was good. Will came back next time!

This is one of the best Greek foods I’ve had and I travel to Greece often. The aubergine spread with lemon and shallots is worth the trip. The roasted octopus was divine, and the choices of wines was very good.

I went there yesterday with my friends for dinner and I can t speak highly enough about them. The food selection was fantastic, we have tried everything from salad, feta ,hallumi chips, chicken , calamari and many more ! All served with amazing souses or spices ! The manager was super helpful when it came to wine and food selection , and deserts, my god heaven :) thank you team for fantastic service , we will definitely come back! Highly recommend to anyone!

Is amazing place , very cosy , food was delicus and so tasty, stuff very friendly and professional . I’m highly recommend , definitely I will come back.

Me and my friends visited The Real Greek Marylebone yesterday for the first time ever and the food, its presentation and the stuff blow our minds! I will defo come back for more Greek culinary adventure:) Yummy!

Not your typical greek restaurant. Here you order several smaller portions of hot and cold meze and create your own meal.Casual atmosphere with on a sultry night open to the street in front with a few tables outside. Great finger food and sauces. Fast and pleasant service. The receipe for success seemed to have worked, because there are several locations!

My wife and I were in Marylebone this evening and fancied eating Greek food so I went on trip advisor and saw excellent reviews and poor reviews for The Real Greek restaurant with nothing jn between and wondered why. We booked on line - a good move because by 7.30pm they were turning people away. There were four waters/waitresses on duty and they earned their gratuity. They worked well together making sure tables were cleared efficiently and we were served promptly. We were not hurried and took our time to taste the flavours. Food was excellent, We picked from the menu for two to help reduce the choice. The vine leaves were excellent and my wife loved the walnuts in the sweet. Always a good sign if there are wines from the same country as the food and there was a choice of 4 reds reasonably priced. So why the variation? My advice is; if you like Greek food give The Real Greek restaurant a try and book through their website before you go to secure a table.

We found the Real Greek by chance while exploring the area around our hotel and decided to try it out. I've been raised on Greek food, so my expectations of Greek restaurants are never high. But I will admit, I enjoyed the dishes we ordered - grill platter, eggplant dip, salads, octopus, they were cooked beautifully. The service was prompt and our table out the front was perfect.

The location of this restaurant is great, just off Marylebone Lane, not too far from Oxford Street, however, although I said we would be coming with our 3 yr old daughter, it was a real squeeze to get the pushchair in. The initial service was great but the food took ages to come and to be honest wasn't worth waiting for. It tasted more pre-cooked and reheated than fresh, although the hummus was good, the chicken and pork were dry and frankly inedible. Not an experience I'll be repeating.

Best to book. Although all the tables were marked reserved they very kindly found me a table. Excellent value lunch at a good location.

Food is not fresh Taste is not good We were happy with the bread, Hommous and the salad Staff are welcoming and professional Only 15 minutes walk from Oxford

Strikingly “old” taste of the food.

Loved the taste of their food and salad. Amazing service. I would recommend it if you are after a none-disappointing meal.

I came here for the first time this evening with my husband and will definitely come back. The restaurant has a casual atmosphere and the food, so fresh and cooked to perfection, tasted authentically Greek. We found it difficult to choose since so many of the dishes appealed to us - we ended up going for souvlaki for 2, which was a very generous portion, pork belly (husband's favourite), falafel, sausage and halloumi fries. We chose a bottle of Greek wine which was a refreshing change from the usual wine lists, and couldn't believe that the whole meal - including flat bread and crudités whilst we selected our dishes - came in at under £80! The staff were friendly and helpful, and overall it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Would recommend! They also do a specific vegan menu which seemed to have a wide range of choices.

My family and I loved the restaurant. Food was sooo delicious and captured the flavorful Greek tastes well. The set lunch menu was filling and the a la carte menu was also well crafted.

A few truly exceptional items on the menu, including the tarama. Probably the best greek restaurant I have been to

I was traveling with my boyfriend and we found this small piece of Greece, the staff was really nice and the food too much in quantity, we could finish all.

En famille à Londres, ce petit resto nous a apporté un très bon rapport qualité prix. Le service est rapide et le personnel très sympa. Bref très bonne expérience.

This is a nice place with a touch of Greece although very Britified. The food is OK, it is served on stacks which is actually convenient. They use too much onion , you can find it raw, or almost raw in every dish , but we still had a goid time and the prices are fair.

Fuimos al griego como un grupo de 5, 3 y 2 con veganos comen carne. Todos ordenados mezze vegetariano para compartir y fue excelente. Es fantástico tener restaurantes como éste que un grupo de amigos, que satisface a todas las dietas. Sin duda volveremos!

Lively atmosphere and really good food, presented on side plates,stacked in a tower. Great buzz in this place. Highly recommend.

Nuestros amigos nos recomendaron este lugar y estamos contentos que hicieron. No he tenido la oportunidad de volver a Creta y un recordatorio de la fantástica comida que tuvimos allí fue más que bienvenido. Pedimos 12 mezze para los cuatro de nosotros. Lo más destacado fue la salsa picante, el queso feta, los calamares, cod la chuletas de cordero y las espinacas y queso feta porekia. Estábamos tan contentos de ver nueces en almíbar con yogur griego - dulces cuchara llamado en Creta y también compartimos una tarta de crema pastelera - ambos estaban deliciosos. Sin duda recomendaría este restaurante y regresaremos de nuevo.

Ristorante piccolo ma accogliente sito in zona Marylebone.

We visited on the off chance as we were passing and were feeling hungry. We decided to go for a sharing Mezze and while not the best ever Greek food I've eaten we were satisfied with the food. Reasonably priced with the added bonus of a few seats outside to enjoy the fresh air

For someone who's been visiting Greece for so many years I can tell you it has poor taste relative to the Greek food you have at the islands. I was quite disappointed as I was missing the food and was looking forward to another Greek meal.

La comida estaba bien, el servicio era horrible. La camarera se le olvidó parte de nuestra orden (panceta de cerdo) y pedí la col sin aderezo. Me di cuenta después de un par de bocados que había sólo un poquito" (según el director) de zumo de limón (la única cosa que soy alérgico a y quería evitar). Dijo que era imposible sin eso. Le dije que está bien, pero sería bueno que nos dijeran que en pedir más que cuando había comido algunos. No llega bastante rápidamente y era bueno. La atención al detalle, aunque lo es todo. Las patatas fritas eran totalmente y enteramente insípida - diría reconstituida. No sabor de patata. Inexcusable. Evitar.

Loved the special vegan menu! All the fold was delicious and we had a great time. Service was Good and the special house wine paired well with the vegan food. Only problem was that 2 of the dishes I tried to order were unavailable.
