Nostimo Mediterranean Gastronomy — Restaurant in London

The 2 stars are definitely for the food which was tasty and on point but if I would have to vote for service and ambiance I should have put a -1 Star if allowed.

I went for lunch with my friend visiting London and we walked into some delicious Gyros scent and we decided to seat down.

Waiters completely INATTENTIVE and DISENGAGED from what’s happening around.

I’ve ordered one of the top shelf white wine on the list and It was served it came out to be warm…. So I’ve asked for an ice bucket to chill it up but instead I received some ice on the side.

We order a starter to share and when it arrived to the table server could have at least described what he served but because my food knowledge is pretty vast we went for an idea of what we were eating. (Moousaka? Hummus? Tamarasalada? Who knows?

While we were still eating the started the main courses came without having time to enjoy our food. When I asked the the server why my mains were served without lemme finish my starter he didn’t say a word and pulled up his shoulders like he said: I don’t know anything about anything………

After the mains were served no one actually came back and checked on me if my food was ok or not and if I was enjoying it.

90£ and more for 2 Gyros plates and a bottles of wine like I was in IOS island by the sea.

It’s very unfortunate because we really enjoyed the food but it’s 2024 and presentation should be at the point instead everything is a bit outdated.

I do not recommend it. Spend your quids...

PLEASE Do Not WASTE your MONEY or LUNCH HOUR here! Do not BELIEVE GOOD REVIEWS Would give Zero stars a colleague and I wanted to treat ourselves for lunch what a shame we didn’t pick somewhere else. First of all we weren’t acknowledged when entering and had to approach staff at the till for a table then we shown to a small two seated near door or offered outside ( freezing ) so rejected table near door let in cold chill every time opened which was frequently as staff left constantly mostly to vape to our annoyance as there was a perfectly good four seated table we could have sat on when asking the server we were told it was reserved as it was their busiest time ( Greek Thursday , national celebration) . Our protests were ignored that was the first sign should have left there and then , however as we had already wasted time we proceeded to order the BLAND, DRY , LUKEWARM, UNDERWHELMING if you can call it GYRO disgrace to Greek food arrived not wanting to make a fuss and now wasted lunch hour came and starving we ate . The staff are obnoxious and overtly racist , lack personal/food hygiene and lack lustre just like the food and have the nerve to charge service charge £11.70 for a cold gyro!! The end of this woeful tale is that I have ended up with FOOD POISONING of the worst kind all because I ATE HERE...
