About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for groups
  • Vegetarian-friendly
Once home to the renowned, charming Andreas Restaurant of Charlotte Street, evolution has taken its place in the form of Ousia. Having opened in March 2018 in Charlotte Street and inspired by the fusion of traditional and contemporary elements, Ousia represents evolution in many forms - from the taste of the food and effectiveness of its presentation - to the setting in which the service is provided.

Knowing the local area is emphatic about quality food and service, and is starved of genuine Greek-Cypriot restaurants, Ousia opened its second restaurant in Muswell Hill

    The food was amazing, I am not sure I chose well wine wise but that could be my mistake.

    4 of us dined at Ousia on a Friday night. The food was excellent and the service very good and friendly. We particularly loved the octopus!! We had a bottle of the house red wine, which was very good too.

    This was a perfectly pleasant experience. Ousia seems to provide civilized Greek food. Everything was 'OK', a good average representation of traditional Greek cooking, but without the pizzazz of the real thing. You could say it's Greek food for people who don't really like Greek food. Prices were reasonable, except possibly for the retsina: £10 for a single glass of what was probably the ubiquitous Kourtaki retsina was a bit over the top.

    We dined as a family on Sunday evening with our two teenage boys for the first time - only happened to come across them while searching for new eateries on Google and we do eat out in Muswell Hill a lot. Being Cypriot ourselves we can vouch that the food is authentic, the flavours would be spot on with a touch of salt:) The vibe is simple and contemporary which we like. Being a Sunday and a little late it was very quiet. Service was professional swift and very polite, the ingredients used were high quality and the cooking of the meat and fish was absolutely perfect. I would highly recommend the Greek salad, octopus, lamb tava, courgette & feta balls, the Cyprus chips were to die for. The special dish, Louvi (black-eyed peas) was exceptional and took me back to Cyprus. A lovely little restaurant, spotlessly clean, we will be returning very soon. Special mention to the staff, Bianca, Mahdi and Lukasz.

    Lovely experience and delicious food, the staff were more than accommodating for my partners dietary needs and super friendly . We opted for the Octopus, Prawns, Calamari with a couple salads, delicious.
