Having heard a lot of positive comments from people whose opinion I respect, I finally made it to Oddfish. Lives up to the hype! We were a group of 6 and ordered a lot of things to share. Everything was great to excellent. Love the tuna based ‘chorizo’! Swordfish ‘bacon’! And the seafood is fresh, the presentation attractive and the flavours well balanced and delicious. Our waiter also had a great sense of humour and good suggestions. Ambiance is ‘fine’ but the food will steal your heart!

Beautiful food, service and atmosphere. Gluten free dim sum is very special. The crispy rice soup was incredible. I loved the food so much I returned for lunch a couple days later. So good!

Went for 5 year anniversary, was given a glass of prosecco each. Server allowed us our space and didn’t rush us out when we finished eating. She was very pleasant. The food was great, my lamb was cooked to order and everything was reasonable quality and portions. I’d recommend for a nicer dinner or special occasion for sure.

Lavidas is not a new fancy place; but they've done what they can to make it nice for their guests. It appears clean and reasonably kept up. The server is a very pleasant person who remembers my favourite drink and is sincerely happy to have my wife and I back as guests. The menu isn't big, but it doesn't have to be, as everything on it suits me just fine. Beef, duck, seafood pasta, muscles, etc. and plenty of good appetizers, are all exquisitely well prepared and are as good as any top restaurant in flavour. The portions are plenty enough to be able to take some home; but it's difficult to do when one is enjoying one's meal that much. The value is absolutely unbeatable! Never mind the decent prices for everything, they have an appetizer, main, and dessert package for a crazy reasonable price. Enjoy!

Overall really loved the meal. Did family style and tried a few different things which was lovely. Few marks off as food was a bit oversalted, particularly the pork chop and a little loud in the space. But would definitely dine again.

    I absolutely enjoyed our entire experience dining here for my daughter's birthday.They helped make her day magical and very special. The best chowder that I have had the pleasure of enjoying in decades! Our server was phenomenal and knowledgable all while being friendly. I am so sad to hear that they are closing soon as I only just discovered them. I truly hope I will have an opportunity to visit again before the shut their doors for good. Thank you for such a great afternoon! :)

    The roast lamb is a classic and a highlight. Our server was helpful and delightful. A good meal enjoyed with friends is much more than good food. One needs to feel welcome in a friendly ambience and Kypriakis delivers - a home away from home. The Greek coffee with medium sweetness was also outstanding. Thank you to servers, chefs and owners for continuing to provide this venue to patrons.
