About
Andy's Taverna restaurant in a corner of London that could be reasonably nicknamed Little Greek gem in Camden is a charming, casual dining spot with all the cheer of the Greek islands. The white-fronted restaurant has classic blue awnings, while a subtler blue and white theme continues indoors to remind you of whitewashed Greek houses and the blue Aegean. This long-established restaurant is famous for its warm staff, pocket-friendly prices and generous portions. Sea bass and sea bream are flown in daily from Greece. The menu includes your favourite Greek breads and dips to start, main courses of grilled Aegean sea bass with potatoes and salad, and selections of classic Greek pastries for dessert. Off course the famous 'Kleftiko' slow cooked roast lamb.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

My siblings and I spent a day in London recently celebrating our brother's 50th birthday. Andy's Taverna was an incredibly lucky find. Every member of staff was pleasant and responsive and the food was excellent. From the moment we entered we were greeted warmly, seated and served delicious olives. Our drinks order was delivered swiftly and our starters and main meals were cooked to order, perfectly; piping hot and absolutely delicious. Afterwards, the staff surprised us all by bringing out a selection of baklava, on the house, topped with the most amazing birthday candle-a lotus flower which opened magically to reveal petals adorned with candles whilst playing the tune for 'Happy Birthday', which the staff all sang to. What a wonderfully kind and generous act. Obviously, we would highly recommend this restaurant: the staff, the food, the atmosphere and the experience it offered was first class.

I came to eat here with my family this evening.
From the second we sat down the manager and staff took great care of us as though we were one of their own.
Within 5 minutes of ordering our starters arrived, it was evident we had more mezze than bread so the manager brought us more complimentary bread the second we were down to our last piece.
The main course took about 25 minutes to arrive after the starter, which to us is a normal waiting time but again, the manager was taking great care and came over to us to give us a complimentary bottle of wine as he felt they were taking long to deliver us our mains although we felt that was not the case.
The quality of the food was absolutely superb but the swordfish we ordered was a little dry, still very good though, however, without even asking, the manager brought over a fresh piece and refused to charge us for either piece, we were impressed by his judge of quality and excellent hospitality.
It was a Sunday night and they were completely full with only two people in the kitchen yet even then the restraunt and its staff still managed to deliver an exceptional service to us that made it into our top 3 best dining experiences ever.
Thank you Andy, you've just won 4 new regular customers.

I visited this restaurant with 4 of my friends on a sunny Sunday afternoon. The outdoor seating is good because there is a lot of sunlight that keeps you warm in UK spring weather.
Food was yummy: we ordered a mix of starters- dips, gallium is etc. The best part was the warm homemade pita style bread. For my main I ordered a whole fish which was deliciously cooked and it was a really large portion for the £15 price ( I had to take some home)
My favourite part were the staff who were extremely friendly and welcoming. They made sure we had everything we needed.
I really loved it and will recommend to anyone for a family meal.
If you miss Greece or just need to feel like you are on holiday during uk lockdown - it’s the place.
Will come back ❤️

The food is pretty good, but not as good as we expected it to be.
The restaurants serves olives as starters and they are amazing and fresh.
We ordered two different types of kebabs, which were quite good but served with only salad and bread and no chips.
As sides, we ordered hummus and tirokafteri, which were really good, but they didn’t come with the bread, which we found quite unusual. We got only 1 basket of bread which was included in the main meal, but we think bread should be served with these types of sides too, since you cannot really eat them without bread. Also, we expected the restaurant to serve pita with our meals, but they only brought another type of bread which is good but totally different.
Prices are average.
The staff was not particularly polite with us, except for one waiter, and while we were eating the staff started arguing very loudly, creating a very bad and negative atmosphere in the restaurant, which is quite unprofessional.

I've been visiting Andy's with friends and my family since 2005. The service, food and overall experience always was and still is amazing!
The meze is a wonderful and authentic spread of tastes from back home, served in good quantities.
No matter what you will choose, the meat meze, the fish meze any of the individual starters and mains, you always get excellent quality and quantity, promptly prepared and served in a very timely fashion.
There is a good selection of excellent, authentic Greek desserts as well as delicious ice-cream.
Petros (the owner) and his wife are very kind and warmhearted people. Both them and the staff are always very hospitable and attending, making everyone feel at home.
The prices are honest, affordable and the restaurant is offering great value for money.
Andy's is highly recommended!

Not the first time visiting Andy's Greek Taverna but the food just gets better and better, absolutely amazing food with great staff to compliment the ambience in the restaurant. Every dish is cooked to perfection and the staff cannot do enough for you, always making sure that if there is anything else needed, they are never too far away to help.
Thank you to the whole team but a special thank you to Luca.

My husband, myself and our daughter and fiance' had a lovely meal in this restaurant last night, our first meal out (but inside a restaurant) since last August.
Restaurant is well spaced out inside, so plenty of space between tables, hand sanitiser on the wall upon entry, very clean, staff wear masks while serving and nearly all customers observed the mask wearing while moving between tables or using the toilets.
Two of us ordered the Meze and the other two ordered the set Mixed Grill option with the three dish cold starters and between the four of us we shared all dishes. The food was very fresh and tasty, one of the better Mezes that I have had in a Greek restaurant, not overwhelming in size and very good value. The Meze had the added bonus of Kleftico (a speciality dish - the lamb melted in your mouth), which is usually not the norm but a very pleasant addition.
Service in the most part was very good, we only had a little issue with the young waitress in that she did not give us a tap water when ordered and when asked for it, again it did not materialise until we asked one of the male waiters and then they immediately got it for us. Not sure if the young waitress could understand us, but this happened again when requesting more bread and the bill, she just went outside to serve someone else, but eventually both materialised. Other than that small issue the service was perfect. When the bill came the (owner I believe) gave us a complimentary shot of Amaretto each, which was a nice touch.
Will definitely be returning and would highly recommend this restaurant for a lovely meal out.

Lovely little restaurant, my husband and I visited while on a trip to London. He had the dolmades to start and I had the spinach parcels, lovely. We both had the Sea Bass with Greek salad and chips. The fish was perfectly cooked no frills, the chips were just like my mum made 50 years ago, highly recommended, Luca who served us attentive but not intrusive

We booked ahead through OpenTable and thank God we did as the restaurant was very full when we arrived, just one vacant table remaining reserved for us.
Such a warm welcome by all the staff - as if we were family!
Not familiar with Greek wines we asked Andy for a recommendation, he went to gather a few bottles from the bar and insisted on giving us a wine tasting session until we found a bottle we liked. We picked a lovely med-dry white.
The food was fantastic, so tasty and fresh. Halloumi and king prawn starters followed by mixed kebab mains, fries and a Greek salad.
We left so full!
I'd definitely recommend Andy's to anyone visiting London/Camden for excellently priced tasty food, considering it's central London!

We had a fantastic meal here. Great authentic food served by friendly staff in a family style restaurant. The owner came by the table several times to make sure all was ok. My kleftiko (lamb leg) was perfect with the meat falling of the bone. The stifado was great as was the mousaka. Very generous portions. A really great experience.

Visited here for dinner and was so lovely. Had the set menu which was great value for money - got to try a bit of everything, which was perfect for us as we were tempted by so many things on the menu. Would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxed meal and excellent customer service. If i was back in the area I would definitely visit again.
Thank you to the lovely staff for a fab meal

Sincerely and in full independency ... you will not regret your visit . Sure we highly recommended this Greek restaurant . Very affordable with substantial portions. We suggest in particular different combined platters meat and fish . You will enjoy the variety of Greek food. High attention in a relaxing environment with discret Greek music . Not necessary to emphasize more this great experience to renew next time. Next to Camden Market

Five if us ate here the other evening and we had a super time. The food is very good, nothing ornate but simple, fresh Greek food, perfectly cooked. What made it so special was the service: Petros couldn't have been more friendly and helpful and the rest of the staff were similarly obliging. It was so refreshing to get this level of interested service.

We arrived hungry after being disappointed from many local places.
This restaurant was a very good idea.
We had a very nice waiter that expained us everything and modified the platter we ordered the way we wanted. way to go.
Only minus was the fact that it was very loud, there was a group of very drunk and loud people and no music to cover that up.
Other than that, perfect.

Great Valentine dinner at Andy's! It all started with great service, awesome tasting Sea bream fish and fried haloumi cheese. Hubby had the mixed meat grill and the cheese and spinach triangles. We had ice cream/sorbet afterwards and it was great as well. All in all a great night, one can see why it is so busy.
