"After recently returning from Greece, where I had my first chicken gyros, I was thrilled when my daughter introduced me to this hidden gem. I honestly didn’t expect it to be as delicious as the one I tried in Greece, but I was pleasantly surprised! The food was incredible—packed with flavor and generous portions—truly exceeding my expectations. The atmosphere in the shop, created by Ricky, was delightful, and I felt very welcomed. After having gyros at Greek Street, I can no longer enjoy an ordinary kebab. When I visit my daughter in Cheshunt, we often order takeout, and since I’ve yet to find a place that comes close to this, it has become our go-to spot. Thank you, Ricky, for the amazing food, for restoring my faith in fantastic takeaways, and for your excellent service. I can’t wait for my next visit!"

"Firstly, I am somewhat amazed at the reviews theis venue has based on our visit on Saturday evening. We arrived 45 minutes early for our table for 4 persons at 7.30pm as I had called ahead at lunchtime asking if they had a bar area that we could sit and select from the menu in advance of being seated in the restaurant. I was given the impression that they had a lavish area for this purpose. However, this was not the case and we were shown to our table on arrival which was probably the worst location in the restaurant that was sparse of diners at that time. I will elaborate on our table location as it made for a negative night. It was a circular table placed in a “gap” between the original restaurant area and what appeared to be an extension to the restaurant. This gap did have curtains that could have been closed which would have curtailed guests and staff squeezing between the wall and one of our chairs but when asked the Owner said he would not close them……. In fairness, “Theo” the Owner did offer the choice another two alternative tables but both were in no better location! We sat and ordered drinks and were provided with menus. The drinks arrived in a timely fashion and were made fine. I also ordered some wine which was decanted and allowed time to breath before being served. The wine was an Amorone but the year did not warrant the price he was charging but nonetheless was quite good. We placed our food order and in doing so I asked if chef would add a simple fried egg to top the steak I had ordered. I was told by Theo that he was down a number of staff on the evening shift and could not provide the egg. How many people would we have needed to fry an egg???? To be honest the whole experience was not worth almost £500.00 even though the food fine. We also found it disturbing the way Theo tried to control the waiting staff this may have been because they were young or new to the role but we felt that the staff did a good job and didn’t need micro managing! I am always curious when a front of house individual, who gives the impression he is in total control, loses the plot mid service. I did tell Theo I would give a poor review and he pretty much dismissed me so I dug a little deeper and it would appear the restaurant has suffered financial issues in the very recent past…….. this information is in the public domaine through Google. All in all we were so disappointed with a venue that appears to have a wealth of happy diners from their reviews……. It’s NOT that good Guys!!!"

"Unfortunately I am having to update my review from 5 years ago due to recent experiences. This cafe has changed management in recent months as a result the food service just isn't what it used to be sadly. The food quality has taken a down hill turn and the lack of English with the waitress left me with food I didn't order. I miss the previous owners. I won't be returning unfortunately. Shame."

"We were a party of five and booked a table for dinner 20.00 hours. As usual,on arrival, we were warmly welcomed and shown to our pre-laid table. I ordered poppadoms for my starters followed by chicken Naga with a mushroom bharji and a pilau rice as side dishes. One of the best things about this place is that no matter what you order, the dishes are served up looking and smelling wonderful and perfectly cooked and always good portions. We have been coming here now for many years and have never been served up with a poor dish. We hope the place never changes and shall certainly returun again in the near future."
