Wee Greek Kitchen

One of the most authentic and beautiful Greek restaurants I have ever been to. Visited with my partner after a day of walking in Holyrood Park and the food was just what we needed. We shared 2 starters and a main, and would've got dessert too if we'd had room! Served by a gentleman with a lovely moustache (the owner we presume). Will definitely try to visit again on our next trip to Edinburgh.

What a night out! Do not get mislead by simple/rustic style of the restaurant. The food takes you really to Greece. We were party of 10, so tried most od the things on menu (lamb, greek salad, mousaka, eggplant, prawns in tomato sauce and I think only mousaka was not rated 5/5 as it seemed too greasy). And we were lucky to enjoy some live music

One of the best Greek food we had outside of Greece, at the south of Edinburgh. We were instantly amazed by the starters. The feta kadaifi was made with very refined strands of pastry, filled with feta cheese and topped with sesame and honey, so it brought a great mix of both texture (crispy shredded pastry and soft cheese) and flavour. And the fava with olive oil was pleasantly savoury and nutty, very appetising. For the main courses, we had the lamb shank which was really well-cooked, and the meat was very tender and juicy; the creamy sauce / soup was a subtle and good compliment that didn’t overshadow the taste of the lamb. And then, for a Greek meal, you just can’t go wrong with mousaka, the one we had was simply flavourful. We ended our lunch with the nice baklava and coffees. The staff (probably the owner) was super friendly. He told us there would be live music performances on Sundays that is worth checking out as well.

We had a delicious meal there in a nice atmosphere. The waiter/host was very kind and hospitable and the Tsipouro (a sort of Cretan raki) on the house was a very nice touch. The dishes are huge so it was a good idea to have one starter and desert (walnut cake) to share. I enjoyed the Dittani tea as well, it's an aromatic tea like a mix of thyme and oregano, very healthy. Will come again to try other dishes as well.
