I'm not a fan of mall restaurants, but our American friends have invited us to do something different so we went. The interior is okay and the restaurant is trying hard to convey the Greek island restaurant feel. The big windows did not help with the interior, but so far so good.We took our own wine and I was thankful for that as the menu is offering mostly big corporation wines. The service was friendly and the chef came out to meet us. My American friends again raved about all the foods. We had a table laden with tapas, but somehow it did not blow me away. Then again, I believe that I had that very authentic Greek Taverna in mind, where the owner is from an Island and can barely speak English and his wife and mother is in the kitchen cooking. I also cannot have Greek food without ample amounts of Ouzo. (I did have my glass after the meal in order to colour in the day with some aniseed).Next time I shall have a HUGE portion of the lamb and tzatsiki and ouzo!The rest of the table were very happy. The Americans raved after every bite, My best friends' son who is 20 now were scoffing all on the table and we kept ordering more, whilst my 7 year old princess were having a solo go at the marinated calamari. She loves all things weird and wonderful.As I am writing this review it is becoming clear to me that it was actually a lovely day with lovely food and friendly service. It was my own expectation that was not totally met, but for that I should travel to Santorini I guess. We shall be back, but I think this time I shall go in the evening. I hope it will be loud and bustling. I want me lamb and I want me ouzo! ;-)

It was a cold wintery day with a table of 13 with family and friends. There is a very extensive menu including kids menu, starters, salads, pizza, pasta, seafood, meats and a page of specials. This often makes me nervous as I know itâs difficult to execute such a big menu well but I can honestly say that every one of the adults and children thought there meal was fantastic. The portions were generous which was great as it allowed us to taste some of the other dishes and I am already planning our next trip se we can go back for more! There is also an outside seating area with jungle gym for kids which would be lovely on a sunny day.

there have been some changes at this restaurant, and we went along for Xmas lunch. Oh my, it was simply gorgeous. Superb menu, in the great Italian way, superb ingredients, not too much fuss, (sorry chef I know you fuss a lot over the food but it comes out so clean and easy on the eye) and the results are stunning. The staff were lovely, and it is somewhere that has a wonderful ambiance. I have been away for many an xmas, and that was the best xmas meal abroad ever.

This restaurant take-away in the Somerset Mall isa the place to go for your marine tastes and needs. The fare is freshly prepared and the interior design smacks of a seaside restaurant. The service is good and the prices are very reasonable for the ample portions served. No fishy business here, just good wholesome old fish n chips or if you are more discerning great comos available with king prawn included and lightly fried tender calamari strips and creamy mussels! I had a WHALE of a time there!Hi there chrisgroen10, Thanks for the review. We're glad you had a 'whale' of a time! We look forward to providing you with another dose of vitamin 'sea'. The OB Team

My wife and I and two friends were there for supper on27 May 2019. The ambience and decor were inviting. The waiter was well informed about the menu. Drinks were served quickly, but we waited ages for our food despite the fact that the restaurant was empty. Portions were small and the pizza was bland. Thereafter we ordered dom pedros and coffee. Again we waited about 20 minutes. Unacceptable. We won't go back.

Great Italian food: Go for the specials of the day, and if you want to taste how real risotto should be, this is your place â it takes 20 minutes to make it but it is worth the wait.

Taking friends to lunch we arrived at this beautiful winery to experience an excellent tasting room for both wine and olive oils, with charming and knowledgeable staff. The restaurant position overlooking lawns and lake are beautiful, and the food is excellent with of course an excellent selection of varietal, locally produced wines. Well worth a visit.
