About The Real Greek - Westfield Stratford City
The Real Greek, Westfield Stratford City serves Greek cuisine on Chestnuts Plaza in London, with a menu spanning 118 dishes alongside ouzo and Greek wines. Greek salad comes with feta, and souvlaki grills cover chicken, pork, and lamb kebabs, while hummus arrives with warm flatbread and halloumi is served as a wrap or as popcorn. Table service runs throughout, with a dedicated waiter attending each table.

Customer Review Summary
The chicken souvlaki and mixed grill plates emerge as the clearest draw, with several diners praising the weekday grill plate special, the souvlaki grills, and the chicken souvlaki skewer, though a couple found the chicken dry and lacking lemon compared to the sausage and meatballs. Close behind, the Greek salad with crumbled feta and the dip trio of tzatziki, taramasalata and spicy feta with warm flatbread draw repeat praise, alongside the filo custard pie with vanilla ice cream and halloumi popcorn as standout desserts and starters. Service is repeatedly called attentive and welcoming, with several reviewers noting staff who remembered returning customers. A few flag inconsistency, such as bland, seemingly frozen meatballs and an oily tomato sauce, and portion sizes some found small for the price. Pricing draws real concern: one diner reports being charged far more than the advertised weekday menu total and says a server obscured the card machine screen, leaving the issue unresolved after multiple complaints, while another compares in-restaurant à la carte pricing unfavourably to the same dish's delivery price. Some also mention queuing without a reservation on busy weekends.

“Absolutely love The Real Greek in Stratford. I am genuinely addicted to their Greek filo custard pie served warm with vanilla ice cream. It is easily my favourite dessert, and I now come back almost every week just to have it. The crispy filo pastry, creamy custard and cold vanilla ice cream are the perfect combination. Their halloumi popcorn is also to die for and an absolute must order. Highly recommend, and please never take the custard pie off the menu!”

“We’ve been to The Real Greek several times before, but today we came with a small group to celebrate a birthday, and once again it was a fantastic experience. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout the whole visit. They made us feel very welcome, so a big thank you to the whole team. The food was absolutely delicious, with plenty of choice, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. We’ll definitely be back, and there’s a good chance we’ll celebrate our next special occasion here too. Thank you for making our day so enjoyable!”
