Feed body and soul at this taverna-come-deli which specialises in homely Greek food made from authentic ingredients and prepared with traditional techniques.
Its minimal industrial interiors may say ‘Manhattan’ more than ‘Mount Olympus’, yet the food is as traditional as it comes, with ingredients nurtured under the Greek sun by artisan producers and cooked using the sort of recipes that have been handed down through generations.
The menu was created by Nikos Nyfoudis, restauranteur, and includes all your Greek favourites, as well as some lesser known dishes. Crowd pleasers include moussaka, tomato and caper salad and feta fondue, as well as a wide selection of must try on the breakfast menu.
To drink, enjoy cocktails infused with fresh herbs as well as a choice of 15 boutique wineries chosen by Oenologist Anestis Haitidis.
Don’t forget to leave time for a browse in their adjoining deli! It’s a treasure trove of fabulous Greek flavours.

The food was delicious. The restaurant itself is nice and cosy with a nice atmosphere. The staff were brilliant, friendly, attentive, helpful with making menu choices and made the whole experience even better. Would definitely go back!

The staff were super the right amount attentive for me and my friends to enjoy our evening, we weren’t rushed, when we had finished dinner and wanted another drink. The food was delicious- we all had the moussaka, and although it was a generous portion, it was so good we had every last bite.
I would definitely recommend the moussaka here!
Thanks for looking after us!

Lovely little restaurant tucked away in Kingly Court. The food was delicious.
Octopus and prawns to start which we shared with the lamb shoulder and fish for our mains. All the food was fantastic and the wine which accompanied it was perfect.
Great service and will definitely return.

Impecicable service!
We where running over an hour late and even though they where extremely busy they kept the table for us!
We both had the Tiger Prawn Saganaki to start with and it was so comforting it made me feel like I was in a traditional Greek Mama's kitchen being fed after a long day.
The Chicken Giros was insanely good the tzatziki was on point and the chicken literally melted in your mouth! We both will definetely be back and already highly recommended on other social media sites!

The staff were friendly.
Would definitely go back for dinner again.

We had an excellent dinning experience at The Life of Goodness. The setting of the restaurant is very nice and relaxed. Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable of the different food options.
The food itself was very yummy. I particularly enjoyed the octopus. I also ordered the lamb shanks - these were very tasty, however order this with a side of humus dip as its a bit dry on its own.
We were quite rushed for time (as we had to be somewhere else) however i thoroughly enjoyed and will be back :)

Table booked for 6pm on a Tuesday night, which is perfect for a pre-theatre meal. Welcomed by a lovely wateress who promptly took our order. Delicious wholesome Greek food. We had the tiger prawns to start and went all in with the lamb shanks for our mains. Very generous portions and I would definitely recommend!

My friend and I really enjoyed our meal at The Life Goddess, it was really tasty and we left feeling full and satisfied! The waiter was really helpful and even suggested a nice greek wine for us to try. We'll definitely be back to try some more dishes!

Nice place and good food. A little too much oil on food, but it was all well seasoned and cooked. octopus and lamb shank were delicious.
