Cuzina – Greek – Nottingham (West Bridgford)
It’s been a very long time since a West Bridgford assessment. The truth is it might need been the disappointing expertise I had on the then newly opened La Storia. I’ve heard constructive issues since from the locals not solely in regards to the aforementioned Italian restaurant but additionally some new venues like Cuzina. I say new, apparently its on its 2nd refurb after having opened in 2017! I like no matter they’ve performed to the place, a beautiful terrace sits on Radcliffe Highway reverse the imposing Trent Bridge. Inside its whitewashed partitions do give a Mediterranean really feel, although in case you’re sitting additional again it’s missing a contact in pure gentle. The menu is a meze affair and while they’ve some attention-grabbing Greek wines there are sadly none by the glass.

I had initially checked out £10 for a Greek Salad and thought their pricing was punchy however fortunately it turned out to be a really substantial portion they usually actually hadn’t skimped on the feta. Issues they’d truly cooked have been fairly good too, maybe a little bit disappointing have been the calarmari. A contact chewy, although not an unusual affliction for this dish, and alongside a basic aioli would have been higher than their lemon and tarragon dip. Bacon halloumi was a extra easy and satisfying affair, a questionable addition of mango chutney pairing nicely sufficient with the saltiness to miss questions of authenticity. Zucchini croquettes have been a little bit heavy and potato dominated. I a lot desire the zucchini fritters at Yamas. Maybe the perfect show of cooking have been the Paidakia (£12.90). The lamb cutlets have been of prepare dinner high quality and while a contact over the pink I would really like had an ideal smokiness from the grill and paired very nicely with a inexperienced olive salsa.

Cuzina is an pleasing neighbourhood restaurant. Residing nearer to city it’s most likely not adequate to pull me away from Yamas however there was little to fault and costs appeared truthful, I can see why it’s a preferred spot.
