Vrisaki - Menu

I have a lamm schish kebab and rice. very nice and very fresh. memorable amount of the staff behind the grill. next time I will try the fancier dishes like lamb cuts, twats and fish. take the children one night there and try the mezze.

many dishes, not much food. for mezethes there were enough small dishes of many different things, but that was not enough. they try to fill them with broth and supplements, but for the price it is not enough of the most important good things.

Vrisaki has alot of dishes with a small amount in each. As a Greek-Cypriot living in the area, skorpios has much nicer, homemade food from traditional recipies and the atmostphere is much nicer- not all squeezed together like sardines! vrisaki is overpriced and overcrowded as well as being overrated.

It's a bustling dining room behind a regular kebab joint, full of Greeks and Greek waiters, dressed up in ties and suits and generally making everything feel old-fashioned and no-nonsense. All four of us ordered the set meze, which at £38 for two people, promised an awful lot. And it largely delivered, with large being the operative syllable. The quantities of food at Vrisaki are staggering. Our starter platter included more dishes than I can remember, b

The only place that tastes of cyprus. I have been going here since i was a little girl, and now take my own children here. i love food (especially greek food), and i can safely say that this is the only place that transports me back to long lazy holidays in cyprus when i bite into a mix pitta. im dribbling just thinking about it. the meze is huge, the dips are delicious, the meat (cooked over charcol makes all the difference) just lovely, tender and tasty. love it.

worth a visit. I went with some of my friends to vrisaki, the team leader of our nursing home unit and our home psychologist last year. the psychologist is semi-Greek, so she spoke to the waiter and ordered our food in Greek. we had a selection of items from the menu like moussaka, filled wein leaves, slowly roasted lamb, kebabs, tsatziki, crooked and brot. I liked all these things, especially the moussaka and kebabs. the staff was very friendly and they even let one of my friends have a free diet coke after our meal.

terrible. I must say that vrisaki is down the hill in the course of the years. my last visit tonight led to over boiled meat on all 3 of our main courses what makes it really worse, is that no meat was eaten and this was the attention to the waiters who decided to a rehearsal to the so-called chef, an overweight man with a pony tail. you can't say that he later glocked in the background and not even addressed our care and from behind to where he came? very confusing. I assume that this is a cypriotic thing asked about the bill and surprise surprise we were accused of the whole amount, that is right, no worries, the...more

Any truly greedy person appreciates the sight of oodles of plates spread out on the table before them. One can convince oneself that one is merely pecking, when in fact one is consuming quantities that would put a sumo wrestler to shame. This is just layer number 1 of the first course of starters that you get at the simple Greek taverna, Vrisaki. Yes, another layer of plates is piled on top. And that's before you move on to the fish and meat courses. It's about quantity rather than quality, and all served up by a bevvy of heavily moustached waiters with leather vests, which adds to the charm. Another thing that makes me happy is baklava. Vrisaki's is good. Really good. But not nearly as...re...

Vrisaki was recommended by my friend's Greek hairdresser. You know when the hairdressers are talking about it, the place is worth a visit. All the way up the Northern line in Haringey, you enter the restaurant through a tiny kebab store. Not in an underground-restaurant-hidden-behind-a-hot-dog-stand-New-York-way but in a, purely practical, no-more-room way. They need every table they have at Vrisaki as the restaurant books out on the basis of the vast quantities of food available for the set price of £36 for two people for the mezze. Most people don't seem to even bother opening the menu and just plump straight for what is essentially an all you can eat option plus some more. Perhaps the...r...
