Traditional Greek food, right in the heart of Southport

  We had a wonderful evening celebrating 70th Birthday . Food was delicious and plenty of it! Lovely Family run Restaurant .Great Staff Highly Recommended .

  Had the most delicious meal here with friends. I have been before and I do enjoy some Greek food. I had lamb cutlets, proper home made chips, rice and Greek... read more salad. It was all delicious and finished off with chocolate fudge cake which was light and not at all sickly. Friends also enjoyed souvlaki, moussaka and prawns with clean plates all round. It’s clean and staff friendly but I do feel lacks in atmosphere. Maybe just dim the lighting a bit.

  Stayed close by for a weekend event and was looking for something nearby the venue without being chain. Great find. Found on TA although out hotel owners also recommended which... read more was a good sign. We love trying different food and have not experienced Greek for a while so refreshingly different to the usuals. Dined with friends and all of us chose the set menu which was lovely. Traditionally Greek although surly that's why you go. Plenty of good quality food and regional wines you will not find in your local supermarket. Made to feel very welcome and service good and attentive. Nice to see Greek people and locals in the restaurant which is always a good sign. At the end of the meal the owner/chef came to chat which is a nice touch as seemed genuine not a chore. Reasonable prices including drinks. We are back again in November with our daughter and have booked again as enjoyed that much.

  This is the second time to this restaurant and wony be visiting again . I cannot complain about the place or the meal but the staff attitude was a disgrace... read more . We had finished our meal and I explained to the waitress we had not eaten all our meal due to having a large lunch we were not all that hungry. She accepted this we got the bill paid and left a tip then this man I think was the owner came out saying anything wrong with your meal I explained nothing at all it was good just not that hungry. He then went on say it was a waste of food why order it if you did not want it . He really embarrassed my partner and myself with the whole restaurant listening to his comments , his food maybe good but his attitude to his customers is a disgrace, don't expect to embarrassed like that . Do not recommend at all.

  Visited Saturday 20 Nov for my wife’s birthday ,over 40 people. We had the banquet this contains 22 different dishes . Of course not all of them will be to... read more everyone’s taste , but you won’t go hungry. Spoke to all the gusts and everyone enjoyed it. The atmosphere was great the staff and owner were very friendly and entertaining the service was great also .
I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone. A great night for all .

  We are relatively new to Southport and only discovered this restaurant recently, since then we have visited twice both times during the current Covid pandemic. So to that first, the... read more tables are very well spaced out, all staff are wearing face masks (and were even before it was made mandatory), and they have hand sanitiser on entry/exit and on all tables (great attention to detail).
Now down to the food, in a time when travel outside of the UK is limited this really is a little taste of Greece and you'll be transported straight there. Both times we've had the meze which is just outstanding, although there was so much food it's beaten us both times! The meze includes dips such as tzatsiki, houmous, & taramasalata, a fish course with calamari & white bait etc, and meat's such as pork and bbq'd chicken plus dolomades, meatballs, & sausage!!!
If you like Greek food, you'll love this place. It's a family run business so if you have chance to support it right now I'm sure they'd appreciate it. It's a new favourite for us and we will definitely return. Thanks to you all at Crete Greek Taverna for this little bit of Greece on our doorstep!
