The suitable hot meze are gigantes and falafel. From the main courses you can have yemista (ask for no garlic yogurt), briam and gigantes. The vegetarian pasta might be alright if cooked with olive oil rather than butter. All the salads are ok but request no feta cheese in the Greek salad and no boiled egg in the potato salad. The other options are beetroot, green and tomato & onion salads. Of the side orders olives, chips & roast potatoes are vegan but not rice because it contains butter. There are no suitable desserts.
