Reviews on trip advisor make it sound amazing (I'm looking for somewhere to go in Swindon for my birthday soon)
But then I did notice it lists Pizza Express as fine dining

I spent 6 months in Greece. I found the food very uninspiring. Some bang on about Calamari as a delicacy, that's about the best they had and it is fucking shit.

Ouzo is good though, but Greek birds have big noses.

HTH.

I lived in Cyrpus, so I love Greek/Cypriot food.

Hope this helps.

A Greece FACT:

Greece won their first ever Euro-vision song contest in 2005, thanks to "My Number One" from Elena Paparizou.

She has a big hooter, because she's a Greek bird and Greek birds have big hooters.

Isn't that one of those places spotty adolescents go to try and get shitfaced and shagged?
I wouldn't be surprised if it was a shithole after a decade of that

I was thinking it could be a winner....unfortunately Swindon wasn't quite ready then for diversity.

Same can be applied for the late 00's.
