Agapi

Located on bustling Swan Street in Richmond, Agapi serves up delicious rustic offerings that are inspired by the streets and beaches of Greece.

The restaurant offers quality dining within a relaxed atmosphere. The use of communal dining spaces and a focus on share plates nods to the venue’s strong roots in Greece, where meals are a fun, social and a celebratory affair.

We loved eating our way through the mouth-watering menu.

To start a selection of dips (the Skorthalialatas - made from potato puree with garlic was particularly delicious) was wonderful with fluffy and warm pita bread. The Pickled Octapodi was similarly delicious -  incredibly tender whilst retaining a robust structure.

For mains, the stuffed peppers were an absolute highlight. we loved the tender peppers which encased perfectly seasoned minced meat and rice. It was comfort food at its best. The seafood at Agapi is also worth trying - Think beautifully pan fried calamari, grilled scallops and fish.

Our dinner concluded on a decadently sweet end with a duo of desserts. The galaktoboureko was traditional and heart-warming while the baklava was superbly made and absolutely moreish.
