Went for lunch and 5 adults, 1 teenager and 5 kids under 6 and we were required to take the banquet which seemed unusual to start with as I'm not clear why 5 adults can't do a la carte and the toddlers could just share a couple of dishes.The banquet was not your usual banquet and was pretty light on in terms of food and the selection. We didn't get nearly the amount or range of food we expected for $55 a head!!! A tiny bowl of olives, 2 small plates of taramasalata - so just the one dip, with plenty of bread. 2 pieces of Saganaki but it didn't have the usual lovely flavour and I felt was quite over powered by the fig. We then got 1 small plate of cured meat. Our table was covered in empty glasses and empty plates which took a long time to clear.For mains we received a bowl of roast chicken pieces, one small grain salad and one small cucumber salad. Oh and a small jar or chips that we mistakenly thought were god the kids until we later realised it was part of the 5 person $55 a head banquet!!!We were disappointed and surprised at the limited variety and quantity of the food offering. No calamari, no lamb, no choice in our selection. Desert was donuts which there were enough of but no accompaniments like ice cream.We had to order extra chips ($13 for a medium plate of chips with feta - these were delicious but why weren't they served as part of the banquet instead of the small jar of plain chips?).We also had to order lamb as an extra. I've never felt the need to order extra food after a Greek banquet!!!! We were left feeling ripped off in that we were pushed into the banquet with a small group of adults and then given a disappointing selection and amount of food. We'd eaten at Hellenic Republic years ago and had a completely different experience. Looks like you guys are taking it too far in terms of trying to increase margins but it's at the expense of the customer. I hear Hellenic is opening in Brighton soon. 10 Greek Plates will give you a run for you money! Much better food, variety, service and value.
