We have dined at this restaurants many times over the past 8 years and the service and quality of food has always been consistently excellent.
The tasting menu with the wine pairings is always put together well and the service staff have a good level of knowledge about the menu and the dishes. The sommelier is also great and is able to recommend the exact kind of wine you are looking for.
I will certainly keep on returning.

Keep going back because the food is great and the staff are very friendly. Mixture of locals and those traveling further afield. Would recommend the Ratatouille, chorizo, prawns in garlic, and the portions are very generous.

The evening started with Rhubarb gin and iced fruit...and continued on an upward trajectory from there... on the table there was delicious bread with oil and tiny squares of the tastiest warm tortilla...
Starter was chicken livers sauted with potatoes and we agreed that it was one of the nicest starters we'd had for a long, long time.
My main was a fillet steak in pepper sauce...on the face of it a conservative choice on my part but I had been alerted to the fact that the steaks here are top quality...and they are...Mine was full of flavour and truly outstanding. Normally I would not have three courses, but I was tipped off about the Limoncello Trifle... it really was special...All in all a splendid meal in really pleasant surroundings with brilliant service...

This was our first visit, humus was lovely as was the chips which we shared. We will definitely call again next time we’re in the areaHello Allbreads, thank you for your review. The only things that puzzles me is that we don't sell chips nor hummus, are you sure you are reviewing the correct cafe'? good luck with things and if you fancy a good pizza, try us!

By great good luck we tried Mocca plodding back from Wakefield Westgate railway station to our hotel. No one in but then it was a perishing cold night outside and we prefer quite if we can find it.
Very friendly and welcoming we were quickly made to feel valued and service was smooth. All our dishes prepared in the kitchen as we watched and sipped the fine house white wine. My pasta was rich, creamy and delicious. My friend's 'two starters as a main course' looked very tempting. She was delighted at the freshness and taste of her two choices, a spinach and ricotta filled pancake and calamari. We were stunned to discover that the ice cream had run out! Is that possible in an Italian restaurant? Our delightful host explained he had been inundated during the lunchtime and afternoon and it had all sold out (the waffles and ice cream topping I guessed were a magnet for diners). I settled for the cheese cake and my friend asked for a typical 'Shrove Tuesday' pancake (again!). There was no fuss and no shoulder shrugs from the kitchen because we went off the fixed menu. Highly recommended on pure food grounds alone. And we eat out a lot!

Jiro may dream of sushi, but I dream of Daphne! Restaurants like this elevate cities. Ultimately, after a day spent soldiering through traffic from Heathrow or City Airport or fighting the crowds, there is always this hidden gem. Spend sometime in the Greek or Cypriot sections of Camden or ask their neighbors and everyone knows Daphne and rightly so-fantastic food, caring service, reasonable prices and the best of company. With a scant 24 seats, Reservations are often required even on weekdays, but come before 7:30 or after 9:45 and you are more likely to succeed as a walk-in.
I’ve previously written an in-depth review but during the holiday season and into January I got to try some of their new winter dishes as well as bringing more friends and getting their feedback, so a new review for 2018!
At Daphne there is the traditional menu and then a seasonal board of specials, which under goes minor changes every few weeks and major changes every few months. The traditional mezze are deceptively simple yet densely flavored. The incredibly creamy tirokafteri (yogurt, feta, and spicy pepper dip) or the skordalia (garlic puree with fried eggplant) are delightful. The winter menu featured a hearty white bean and vegetable stew (fasolada), which was heavenly. A friend dinning with me from Italy said a similar dish is served there but she preferred Daphne.
There are numerous vegan and vegetarian options. They are so well-prepared and flavorful that herbivores will never feel left out. An honorable mention here to the black-eyed bean and spinach dish. I certainly skew towards the carnivore-centric side of the menu, yet the most memorable dishes were the veggies; they were simply exquisite.
But this is Greek-Cypriot food so be prepared for meat, potatoes, feta, moussaka, kleftifo (lamb joint), etc. and don’t worry, the succulent selection of meat grilled over a charcoal flame is fantastic. Those preferring meat cooked slowly and left to braise, stew, or roast will find beef and lamb, which fall apart on your fork and melt long before they ever reach your mouth.
This is one of the few restaurants where I trust the chef and the Waitstaff completely, because I know I will never have a bad dish.
All of this wonderful food is presented in one of the most welcoming, charming, and friendly environments, in which I have eaten. Whether you are a local or not, you will find no less warmth or enthusiasm for your patronage, during your visit to Daphne. Young, old, local, foreign visitor, tourist, or aficionado, they all love Daphne. I know because I arrived as a stranger but left as a friend. During two visits in January 2018 I witnessed two events, which beautifully summarize the service at Daphne. First, A group of Japanese tourists arrived. It took some time to translate the menu from Greek to English to Japanese and make sure that everyone got their preferred order. I saw the owner with a big smile on his face. When I inquired why he was so joyful, he told me how excited he was when people come from great distances to eat in the restaurant. On another occasion, the restaurant was quickly filling to capacity and a group of four arrived without a reservation. Eventually, they had to be turned away as every table was filled. I later saw the owner deep in thought. When I asked what he was thinking about, he said he wondered if he could’ve rearranged all the tables in the restaurant to accommodate the walk-ins. He said that after thinking about it for a long time he was sure there was no way to move the tables. This is the level of care that goes into the service at Daphne.
Daphne does everything we ask of a restaurant. It is an adventure and a destination, a frontier and a safe harbor. It is independently owned, locally run, incorporates seasonal ingredients, and welcomes diners of all tastes, backgrounds, and persuasions. It is friendly, unpretentious, and proud. Well it should be. If this is the kind of place that appeals to you, seek it out, And leave the stuffy, arrogant eateries of Park Lane, Berkeley Square, or Chelsea behind! Happy traveling!
