Last night, we dined at Gaia. The food was good, but not particularly exceptional, especially if you’ve had prior Greek culinary experiences. For the price, you might expect a bit more. The disappointment extended to the Greek salad, which, for £33, and we thought it’s because of a good size to share, but when it arrived it was a very small portion for one.  When we saw watermelon priced similarly at £33 as well on the menu, it was quite a shock — especially since it’s watermelon season. This is the starting price for main dishes like fish or meat in fine dining restaurant. But, it’s Mayfair baby:)

However, the service truly stood out—five-star all the way!! The waitstaff were knowledgeable, the food arrived swiftly, and any requests were promptly met with a beautiful smile. Compliments to the hardworking team for such excellent service.

The atmosphere was also delightful. Between 7pm and 9pm, the crowd consisted mainly of families, friends, and couples. After 9pm, though, it transformed into a scene of mini-skirted hunters—it is Mayfair, after all again:)

Overall, our experience was very good, and we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner.

Went to Gaia for lunch, and the atmosphere was fantastic! It was one of the busier spots during lunch, but the energy just added to the experience. The food was delicious, just as good as their other branches, with all the flavors you’d expect. The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to accommodate all our requests. Overall, a great place for a lunch outing!
