After all the shakes and destruction many places have relocated - Costas being one of them. It has a good reputation and this was evidenced by the full house when we arrived and it was clear why you needed a booking - especially when you consider that they run a second booking for 8pm meal. Our place was ready and we were seated quick enough. The orders were filled (via electronic blue-tooth means) and the Garlic "bread" arrived in extra quick time. Given the speed with which the bread arrived one was hoping for mains to be as quick - alas it was not to be. Not surprising given the full house. Anyhow, the garlic bread is sold as Garlic 'Pita' bread and such it was - cut as can be seen in the picture half way and then again through the middle and nicely filled with garlic butter and some herbs. The Pita bread was just your average pita bread. Nothing fancy there. It was to hot to touch and the supplied knife and fork came in handy. There was ample to eat for two people. The presentation - given the rest of the "themed restaurant", fell short of the expectation, and was very plain and simple. Overall - this would be a slightly above average bread.
