A new family-run restaurant is transporting customers back to their holidays in Greece with its traditional dishes.

Best Gyros Norwich has opened in Catton Grove Road in the NR3 area of the city.

From gyros to souvlaki, there is a range of fresh dishes to try.

Munim Sikder, media manager for the restaurant, said: "Customers have been loving our food and have said it reminds them of their holidays in Greece.

"It is not your typical kebab shop as all our meat is sourced from a producer in London and it is all fresh, clean and not overly salty like some gyros meat."

The extensive menu is made fresh in-house and is available to eat in or take away.

Dishes include chicken skewers, mixed grills, tzatziki dips, lamb chops and homemade baklava for dessert.

Vegetarians are also catered for with options such as a Greek salad, vegetable gyros with halloumi and a mixed vegetable grill. 

Mr Sikder added: "We are testing out our menu so things may change over time but we hope to show local people a different cuisine as there aren't many other Greek restaurants in Norwich.

"Our chef is from Greece originally and has lots of experience in the industry so expect lots of traditional dishes from the country."
