Starting the meal

Cold Mezze at Gaia

Gaia's cold mezze selection is one of the finest in London. Each dish is a masterclass in balance and quality Greek ingredients — from the luxurious Tarama with Bottarga to the smoky depth of Melitzanosalata and the crunch of Dakos with mizithra and tomato.

Cold mezze are designed for sharing and ordering multiple dishes across the table is the traditional way to start a Greek meal. The Htipiti (roasted red pepper and feta) and Tirokafteri (spicy feta dip) are perennial favourites for guests who enjoy bold, punchy flavours alongside warm bread.

Hot Mezze at Gaia

The hot mezze section is where the charcoal grill and the kitchen come together most vividly. The Htapodi (chargrilled octopus) is consistently Gaia's most celebrated mezze — chargrilled until tender with capers, red onion and aged red-wine vinegar. The Saganaki (pan-fried kefalograviera) and Grilled Halloumi serve vegetarians exceptionally well.

For those who enjoy bold flavours, the Loukaniko (Greek pork sausage with orange peel and fennel) and the crispy Kalamari me Fava are strong choices. The hot mezze pair beautifully with an Assyrtiko white from the all-Greek wine list.

Fish & Seafood at Gaia

Whole fish cooked over charcoal is the centrepiece of Gaia's menu and the primary reason many guests return. The kitchen sources premium fish — sea bass, seabream, swordfish and langoustines — and cooks each simply over the charcoal grill, dressed with olive oil, lemon and herbs in the Greek tradition.

The Whole Grilled Sea Bass (~£52) is the restaurant's most iconic dish. The Langoustines (~£58) and Grilled Lobster (~£75) represent the luxury end of the seafood menu. For guests who prefer skewered fish, the Swordfish Souvla (~£44) and King Prawns Souvla (~£42) are charcoal-grilled on the spit in the traditional manner.

About Gaia

Evgeny Kuzin's vision for modern Greek fine dining in London

Gaia was founded by Evgeny Kuzin, the restaurateur behind some of London's most talked-about dining destinations. The restaurant was conceived as a love letter to the finest traditions of Greek gastronomy — but expressed through the lens of a world-class Mayfair dining room.

The kitchen sources ingredients with obsessive care: fish and seafood are chosen for quality and freshness; Greek cheeses, olive oils, and cured meats are imported directly from producers across Greece. The all-Greek wine list, assembled with the help of specialist sommeliers, is widely acknowledged as one of the most compelling in London — introducing diners to indigenous Greek varieties they may never have encountered elsewhere.

The interior is as celebrated as the food — striking design, warm lighting, and a setting that transforms dinner at Gaia into an occasion. It has become a destination for special celebrations, business dinners, and anyone seeking the best of modern Greek cuisine in London.
