We love Retsina, the staff are very welcoming and friendly. The food is always lovely and fresh and so is the wine. Now with live music on a fri and sat night it creates a relaxing atmosphere. We would recommend this restaurant .

having being recommended this restaurant i was really looking forward to a lamb kleftico but having scanned the menu i couldn't find it! i asked the waiter if they did not do it ! and he pointed out a dish on the menu and said that was it! when i received my meal it was a lamb shank it a kind of gravy!! when i complained to him explaining that my idea of lamb kleftico was a braised lamb shank with vegatables sliced potato and cheese done in a pot or foil, he became down right rude and told me that kleftico meant braised lamb on the bone of any sort and not lamb with vegetables ,potatoes and cheese!! he treated my partner and i with utter contempt and was extremely unprofessional!! i have since googled the recipe for lamb kleftico and all of them are with veg potatoes and cheese! just has i thought ! this is a restaurant i will not be visiting again in a hurry!!

I've been to Greece a number of times, and love Greek food. I was looking forward to eating at Retsina, having seen some good reviews on this site. But I was very disappointed at the quality of the food - cheap ingredients, overcooked and underspiced. Service was adequate, atmosphere good. But I really wouldn't recommend here if you want decent Greek food - and it's not cheap and cheerful, either, you can get better value elsewhere locally.

I would never ever recommend this takeaway, sorry restaurant to anybody in a million years. I am actually bemused at the fact that there are good reviews written here on this website and was extremely surprised that the place was actually busy. Beside from it looking like a takeaway with waiters dressed in jeans and trainers the food was despicable. We ordered a hot and cold starter to share as it was recommended by the waiter. Cold starter was four dips and some lettuce. RIDICULOUS!!! the hot starter, baring in mind to share was 1 calmarie, 2 chorizo sausages, 1 tomato, 1 meatball, 1 tiny piece of gammon which wasn't cooked properly and 1 bit of chicken. Both of these starters cost £6.90 each. I wouldn't have paid a pound for them. For the main meal I ordered a chicken kebab with boiled rice and Diane sauce, and I couldn't believe my eyes when i saw what I had been given. 2 chicken breasts on a barm cake, Packet rice and the Diane sauce had a whole onion sitting in it. My boyfriend ordered sea bass which looked half decent as where his chips. But he got veg with his, which was tinned carrots. Both of us left nearly all of our food as we felt physically sick just thinking about it. We got a voucher for this restaurant which is why we went. And why we had never seen the place before. We will definitely think twice before doing this again as this cost us a whole evening, and money that could have been spent else where. Oh and by the way, I am not some middle age woman who likes fancy restaurants. I'm a 21 year old girl who has just finished University.

Having read the previous reviews I feel a little bemused as what people call great, excellent, amazing food..... must be the owners what keep updating the reviews to get you in there because I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Bought an offer off the Groupon website and was really looking forward to going from these reviews. The food was awful, got a cold and hot sharing starter and somehow they think one calamari ring is enough to share! My girlfriend got a chicken kebab for main and it consisted of the toughest overcooked chicken on a huge barm cake?? Whats that about! My sea bass came with tinned baby carrots, some fine dining. I’m not joking when I say I’ve had better food from a fast food place after a night out!! Safe to say the dog didn’t get a goody bag as I think he would have turned his nose up.

we have been to retsina many many times absolute lovely food, the chicken retsina has to be the best ever! We often have takeaway from here to. We eat out quite often but most of the time its retsina, would recommend to anyone who hasn't been here to try it out , its a nice, cosy, and welcoming place to eat and the food is great.

This was our first experience of Greek cuisine and we were not disappointed. Although small, the restaurant was warm and friendly. Staff were pleasant and welcoming. We had prawn cocktail followed by the Greek banquet and the whole meal was first class. Every dish was freshly cooked and served piping hot. The chocolate cake looked and tasted heavenly. Brilliant night.

Have eaten here a few times and would recommend it as the food and service are really good. The restaurant is small but has a lovely atmosphere but you really need to book of a weekend as it gets busy.
