GREEK MEZE TAVERNA REVIEWS

Beautifully cooked food, reasonably priced, friendly staff. Really can’t ask for more. We got the mixed grill for 2. Pork and lamb chops were seasoned and cooked perfectly. Garlic sausage, chicken and pork skewers, chicken gyros, kofta. All delicious. Highly recommend.

Stopped on a whim. If I lived in the area this would be at least a monthly place. We shared an appetizer and each got a plate. Neither could finish the plate. Very good food. Hot and fresh. The service was great. I was very pleased with the quality of everything.

Wonderful customer with amazing freshly prepared meals. This was my second visit I think the staff and the food got even better. I took my family this time and they loved it as well. Definitely going again as this is a close to Turkey as one can get in the North East. Truly great food.

FRESCA REVIEWS

Found this gorgeous place by accident whilst on a shopping trip to Middlesbrough and so glad we did. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, the decor is stunning, the candles and mood lighting create a modern but cosy atmosphere and the food is genuinely unreal. I got the salmon and prawn pasta which was so full of flavour and my partner got the fillet steak which he said was one of the best he had ever had and cooked perfectly. We will definitely be back soon and would absolutely recommend this lovely place.

Christian was amazing with our service, ensuring we had an amazing and relaxing food experience, very accommodating with our needs. Our waitress Sarah was lovely, very polite and available for our every need. Would definitely dine again on a regular basis.

Underrated little gem. Such an amazing restaurant, great food and service and value for money. We were pleasantly surprised. Keep it up. We will be back!
