Salamis Greek Taverna — Restaurant in England

A few days earlier we ordered a table for December 31st to celebrate the New Year with my wife. When we arrived at the appointed time, the restorsnt emploee checked the confirmation of our table rrservation, told us that everything was in order and left. We waited a long time at the front door untill another represantative of the restaurant came and announced that there were no free tables and even didn't apologoze.We went home with a spoiled mood and a lost sense of celebration.I will add that we specially drove to the restaurant from Holbeach , but the restaurant staff is not fulfiling their promises regarding the reservation of tables and I have heard about such cases in this canteen from several people. I do not advise anyone to book-because there are no guarantees that you will get the table - at best will offer to sit at the bar, at the entrance door, where constantly everyone walks by and is draught.This restorant is a real example of how to show direspect and arrogance...

I came in here late one evening, hoping for a quick meal. I was lucky, and was just in time for "last orders" in the kitchen. I'm not intimately familiar with Greek cuisine, but was willing to try a couple of dishes for my starter and dessert, and a Greek beer. I was pleasantly surprised.

For my main course, though, I decided to play it safe with a steak. The chef/owner came out to tell me that while my first choice (rump steak) was available, the meat was not of a quality that he was happy to serve. The sirloin steak, on the other hand, was a much better choice - and the same price, he said. I went with his recommendation, and enjoyed an excellent one.

The waitress was also very friendly; and happy to give advice on the menu.

If you're looking for something different from the usual Indian or Chinese restaurants, I can recommend Salamis...

2nd time we have eaten here.1st time was about 8yrs ago. The food was just as good this time if not slightly better. To be honest the food, service and ambience is second to non. Thank you so much. We had the meze which is a little of everything so you can find out what you like or don't like. So a great introduction to Greek food. Make sure you don't eat anything all day as there is a lot of food to share. We couldn't eat it all. However they were happy to pack the food into a carton for us to take home. Hubby will have the munchies later lol. Minimum of 2 people eating for the meze. Next time we are down here we will book another table. Once again thank you for reminding us how much we...
