Food has a very special place in the heart of Greek people and at Christakis Greek Taverna their meals are specially prepared and served with care.
Why not try a starter of garlic mushrooms cooked with white wine, garlic and butter followed by a grilled fillet steak with fried mushrooms and onions or a traditional moussaka (aubergines, courgettes, potatoes and béchamel sauce). Finish off with a delicious paclava (layers of filo pastry and nuts dripping in honey) or a galatoburekko (filo pastry and vanilla custard).(Pictured)
The food is priced at very competitive rates with starters from £2 - £4 and main courses from £8 - £12 with a good range of food for fish lovers and vegetarians. The early evening menu available offers exceptional value with three courses for £8.95.
The wine and drinks list is more than adequate with a selection of 26 bins of wines and a good choice of spirits, liqueurs, brandies, cocktails and coffees. Christakis makes the ideal venue for a weekend fun-filled party or filling meal during the week.But it’s after the meal the real fun gets under way. You will be invited to join in the dancing and singing with live Greek music and plate smashing. The waiters will show you the steps to all the dances and they have special surprises for the people that are celebrating a special occasion.
So, if you’re looking for a lively night out, this Greek restaurant is not just about the food, it’s about the atmosphere. It also specialises in group and party bookings, belly dancing and has DJs on until 2am every Friday and Saturday.
