Parthenonas — Restaurant in Sheffield

Myself and my work friends like to dine out every couple of months trying out a new restaurant and this one was on the list. We like to dine early and when we arrived at 6pm the restaurant was empty however it was full by 7.30pm. We were seated at a large window which gave a great view of the street but equally people kept looking in at us which felt a little awkward. I had the stuffed vine for my starter and the stifado for my main course. Both were full of flavour, hearty meals.

It was a good experience on a cold and raining evening. We started off with their traditional ouzo and spankopita- filo pastry stuffed with feta cheese, spinach. This was just what we wanted after the "walk in the rain"- a hot dish melting in the mouth. However the main course was not as interesting. Being vegetarians, we had papoutsaki-aubergine stuffed with onions, tomato, cheese and bechamel sauce. Sadly, the only taste left in my mouth was that of sweet onion and cheese. Did not enjoy it much. The 2nd main course veg mousakka turned out to be better. The portion size is good and with all the cheese, two mains actually were too much for us. We would have done well with the starters and one main dish to share. Overall we enjoyed the cosy ambience and the exuberant, cordial,...
