London’s Best Greek or Greek-Cypriot Restaurants for Mezze and Souvlaki - Eater London
"Myddleton Road is the last distinctly Greek pocket in Wood Green. But some things never change. For decades, the blue Vrisakis sign has been inviting hungry Greeks and non-Greeks alike to experience the city’s most famous souvlaki. Photographs of nineties and early-noughties celebrities fight for space on the wall, from when the restaurant was once a trendy, secret gem. It’s no longer much of a secret, but it’s still a gem. As well as the grill, it does a respectable mezze offering, known for gargantuan portions, and everything from the food decor reflects the character of a classic London-Greek establishment. But: the souvlaki is not the move here. Instead go for the doner kebab, which is made daily on the premises and filled with freshly chopped onion and parsley, a new addition to late-night memories of the slowly rotating elephant’s foot." - Chris Cotonou
