Restaurants in Hoxton
The pretty bold blue exterior of this award-winning eaterie makes you think of traditional Greek establishments. Happily, so does the décor (a sophisticated mix of original Victorian features and rustic lighting) and, more so, the fabulous Greek food. Together all three attract truly mixed crowds, from Hoxtonians to the odd celebrity and refined diners. With a choice of two types of restaurants, first, the more formal Real Greek Restaurant offers a long list of quality Greek home-style cooking accompanied with an extensive list of imported Greek wines. We highly recommend their Kirios Piata (main dishes) which can range from duck stuffed with cretan style 'wedding pilaf', Monkfish tail wrapped with Halkidiki vine leaves or a must are their traditional Ismir style meat dumplings. The second restaurant, the subtly-lit 'Mezedopolio', next door serves a delicious informal mix of authentic Mezedes ideal for a relaxed meal. The bar takes centre stage in this trendy, buzzy environment, and again on offer is a wide variety of Greek wine, beer and spirits. Wonderfully friendly and knowledgeable staff.
