A real neighbourhood restaurant with a pure Greek heart, there is a wonderful buzz to the intimate Mazi. It’s one of those places where you can leave the decision making to the passionate, engaging team, who are ready to recommend their favourite Greek wines and dishes – such as the terrifically tender spiced lamb rump. The menu is designed for sharing so order a good range between you; for dessert however, it’s hard to look past the loukoumades. A small front terrace and larger rear one add to the appeal – if the weather’s good enough, you can pretend you’re in Athens.
