The best restaurants serving Greek food in East Midlands

Most authentic Greek place in Mansfield. Lived in Greece enough to say that.Amazing! OPA special club sandwich, Gyros, souvlaki and everything else we tried ! Lovely guys behind the counter.Regular place to the list!. Recommend it big time !

Couldn’t eat at the hotel, so I gave this a whirl on local advice. Really good! Very tasty, good portion size and authentic Greek cuisine. Will definitely have a crack at the rest of the menu!

Been meaning to try this little Greek find for a couple of years and last night I finally did and it didn’t disappoint!! There were 4 of us dining celebrating our friends birthday and we love our food, there was so much to choose from we found it hard to decide what to have! We opted for olives, hummus, halloumi fries and calamari to share and then we had chicken gyros, substantial portions that we really struggled to finish it all but we powered through as it was to tasty to leave 😂 The waitress was super helpful on arrival, asked if we’d been before and none of us had…she explained it’s all cooked to order and comes as and when it’s ready, fortunately the sides we wanted to share came before the gyros to tide us over so worked out well as a starter. We didn’t have to wait long for the sides to come and not long after we finished, our gyros soon followed. The food portions again were good sizes, hot and really tasty with a good amount of dips to accompany them. The service was fab, especially the lady with dark hair who served us, she went above and beyond so Thankyou for making our first experience fantastic and we will definitely be back 😌

Would not hesitate to recommend The Olive Pot for a special occasion. From booking to execution of a meal for 10, the service could not have been any better. We were given a large choice of menus from which we chose 3 dishes for each course. The staff arrived on time, dressed the table and cooked and served the most amazing meals. The quality of the food was excellent and cooked to perfection. I would go so far as to say it was some of best I'd had in a very long time... and plenty of it. After we had finished everything was left spotless. I really don't k so how they did it, but it made an auspicious occasion very special. Thank you.

The table service was attentive and fast. However, the food was just average for the price. The cocktails were better quality. It was very hot inside and we were glad to leave as it was busy. I really don't like the table reservation fee, and would not go there again.

The most amazing Greek restaurant has let me down 😭 the maze use to be incredible, I was that full but now I had to ask there my food bag, I couldn’t move. Guttered x

Having moved back to the area after some 30 years, we knew this place as Dionysus which was always a favourite. We went on a Sunday night and were not disappointed. The drinks are more than reasonable and the food excellent. Chatting with the staff and owner made it a personal experience. The Tzatsiki was to die for as was the chicken fillet and pastitsio. Will definitely come back and not after 30 years.

Nothing special. High prices. Frozen food. More or less delicious.

I went in there last wednesday my first time here as I was with a group trip to Leicester we had dinner, service was satisfactory, we were all in a good mood, happy to get some food, before returning to London on the coach.

Outstanding food and really attentive service. Would 100% recommend. We booked ahead and definitely needed to. Very popular and can understand why 😊

A very nice lunch. Good quality, freshly prepared. Staff welcoming and cocktail menu very good. Reasonable prices. Quirky restaurant. Highly recommended!

Please avoid. Ordered with high hopes based of the other reviews but similar to other restaurants in Northampton it is obvious these glowing reviews are from someone in the establishment. Ordered a chicken plate to consist of : salad, chips, bread, chicken and I added haloumi. Salad - was the main thing on the plate, was ok salad is salad. Chips - more or less raw, to the point the chips were soggy, no crunch no nothing just wet and soggy. Absolutely foul. Bread - “homemade” bread? Honestly reminded me of brown wrap bread you would get from the supermarket. I don’t know if the batch they had was going of but this was item of food that was most on the plate after the salad Chicken - honestly a 5 year old could add more seasoning on that, very lackluster the most it had probably was a little salt. I know Greek food is not heavy on the seasoning but this was an embarrassment honestly. The slim pickings of chicken they gave was actually foul. Haloumi - I couldn’t even tell you what on earth that was, genuinely though it was an eraser on first glance, bit into it and still wasn’t convinced it was not an eraser. I don’t know if it was boiled or what, not a grill mark in sight, the haloumi was white. This is a honest review, please save your money watch a tutorial on how to make Greek food and please avoid this place.

Fantastic food and a fantastic service. Ordered on just eat. Food delivered hot, sauce in tubs so nothing gets soggy. Chicken yeeros are so tasty and always a go to as a Friday treat. Love this place!

How have I not stumbled on this place? Overheard a friend talking about here so decided to try for the first time. And wow I'm so glad I did, ordered for delivery the mixed meal and houlumi, it arrived fast and hot. Was all presented absolutely perfect in a nice foiled box. I cannot fault this place as a first time customer. I will definitely recommend and will be using this more often.

Excellent service and amazing food as always
