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.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We were staying at The George Hotel, that is directly opposite and were intrigued by this place. So we decided to have an evening meal on our second night. We were not aware until later that the restaurant has not been open that long as...it seemed to be have the feel of an established and much frequented local. It was much too hot to sit inside so were please to be seated in the peaceful and quaint outside eating area. It sits on a slope at the back but is secluded, cosy and shaded!. It all feels very easy going and comfortable. Both service and food were excellent. The waitress being attentive and friendly. We enjoyed the food very much but were unable to finish everything. It was all as fresh as can be with the filo pastry, made fresh every day, in particular being light and crispy. There are not that many places open at night in Cranbrook but this a welcome, well priced and relaxed addition. Will definitely come back.More

Booked a table for my wife’s birthday. First time we had been and the 5 of us had a lovely meal. The restaurant is cosy warm and friendly. We ordered pretty much everything on the menu and we shared it all between us. There was...not a bad dish. The aubergine and beef was #1 with the meatballs a close second. The service was very good and the lone staff member had done very well coping with “walk in” tables until help arrived. We will be back with friends in the future.More

Went to try Kypseli today after hearing good reviews but have left underwhelmed. The place is really nice and welcoming and the staff were lovely but the food was just average. The portions sizes were huge, so maybe we just ordered too much but no...one finished a meal and all left feeling a bit disappointedMore

Popped in for a spur of the moment lunch with my daughter. We enjoyed pitta, hummus, olives, Greek sausage and pizza topped with feta and onion. All was delicious! We couldn’t manage all of it so kindly we were able to take the rest home...in some very good take away containers. I cannot wait for their new restaurant to open a few door away !More
