10/10Without doubt this is the place to eat authentic GREEK food. EVERYTHING was delicious & freshly prepared. The service was professional, quick & thoughtful, thank you to all including the team in the kitchen. Highly recommend you give this eatery a visit!!

6.5/10The food was quite salty!! When I arrived, my reservation wasn't on the printed list at the restaurant—they hadn't printed the full list. As a result, the waiter wasn't very friendly with us at first. In typical Greek fashion, though, the service started off poorly but ended with everyone being quite friendly (by the way, I am Greek).

6.5/10Food is pretty good, but not great. It’s very reasonable price wise. Very busy. Tables are very cramps. It’s a good basic Greek.

6.5/10The food was the only good thing about this restaurant. Well done to their chef. Service was mediocre, never seen anything like it. We had to ask for napkins, had to ask for our table to be cleaned up; even though our plates were empty for a good 15 min no one was bothered to even come close to clearing our table, let alone asking if we wanted anything else. Desert menu wasn’t brought to us either. Utterly disappointing.

7/10Due to the larger number of guests, the service suffered a bit. One dish was missing in menu after ordering, the second dish was forgotten to bring. Reasonable price, which corresponds to the quality

4.5/10Got shoved in the basement while walk ins were given precedence even though we had a booking. The basement is lit badly with loud music. The food was average. Won’t be returning.

10/10Another most enjoyable meal. The food cooked to perfection, very tasty & served professionally. The place was full which says it all. Vasilis & his team were on top form & Kyriakos (the owners son) introduced himself when enquiring if everything was to our satisfaction. A very nice touch & shows the quality of the management. Using The Fork makes the price very affordable & amazing value. We shall return very soon to enjoy more of this authentic, top quality cuisine. Finally to the kitchen staff who we do not see “THANK YOU”!!!!

9/10On the giant prawns hot starters they put only one prawns . They said because you booked a table through the fork which is big shame to the owner of the restaurant.

9.5/10Another very enjoyable meal at this authentic Greek restaurant. A very warm welcome was given by Andy & although the place was very busy his experience shone through. The food was delicious, cooked to perfection & served professionally. But the time we left most of the tables weee occupied, that tells you all you need to know. Thank you to all at Alexander The Great.

8.5/10The food was good the price and quantity was good. When went to the restaurant at 7o’clock there was three waiters, I think there should be at least one more person on the team, I have to catch them to place my order and I didn’t order any drink so I didn’t get any water that I asked for. The lamb and steak were good, fish kabob was okay.
