Looking for the best kontosouvli in London!

Calling all Greeks in London—I’d love your recommendations, but I’m also open to suggestions for great Middle Eastern spots too.

I’m hoping to find a place that serves delicious kontosouvli (slow-grilled meat) in or near London. When I’m in Athens, I always hit up Kebabtzidikon, which is absolutely fantastic. My boyfriend loves it, and I’d love to surprise him with some here.

Thanks in advance! 😊
