We've had a few excellent new Greek restaurants open in London of late and it looks like another is coming to South Kensington. Myrtos is from ex-Pied a terre chef Asimakis Chaniotis who will be opening the restaurant in South Kensington (taking over from Aubaine).
The food here takes its inspiration from across Greece, using produce sourced from Greece and the UK, the latter seen in the Dorset snails being used in their snail flatbread. As for some of the dishes on the menu, they'll include:
- Lobster giouvetsi with orzo, tomatoes, mussels, lemon and basil
- Pan-fried pink bream with a 5-herb, lettuce and lemon sauce
- Skewers that include lamb belly and pickled turnip
- Fried whole squid with Greek herb chimichurri and squid ink
Desserts include their own pistachio cake and they'll have a cheese trolley showcasing Greek cheeses.
It'll also have an impressive cocktail selection as cocktail bar Line from Athens, which is no 6 on the World's best Bars list, will be behind the drinks here. They'll have drinks like their own take on a Bloody Mary made of sun-dried Greek tomatoes, red beetroot molasses, samphire and vodka.
