Thank you for the lovely dishes we ordered no complaints regarding the food great serves. We always come here for our friend chat ups, can’t go wrong with Greek food nor the service, we use to go else and the service was absolutely terrible, 45 mins to take a drinks order not sure why that was but now happy to come to Yassas the Greek way Southbank. If I have to complain about anything some of my party thought the music was a touch too loud.
