Warning to all voucher holders: ensure they provide the right quantity of food as specified in the voucher. Used 2 vouchers for 6 people and were provided with quantity for 4 people. Entrees came after an hour of seating and staff seemed disinterested in serving us. Had to leave with half empty stomach.

Never again, we had a voucher for 4 people and we were expecting a great night. We booked for 6pm and ordered, but food never arrived till 7.012pm. Even so, we were happy to wait but when the food got to the table, it was so small in proportion and I suspect that because we had a voucher,the skimped on it. What a disappointing evening.

Love this place Been here 3 times. Once we had a voucher and were treated equally as well as at others. Food was excellent not sloopy BBQ like at many Greek spots. Loved the entrees, similair to others but more refined. The Mussels in a delicate sauce were sublime (finished the sauce w a spoon!). Calamari, brilliant texture. Overall Yum and a great place to take anyone, classy but comfortable. My fav greek eatery.

The service was impeccable, it was worth staying there for the main course And the dessert and coffee! The calamari was tender perfection. I strongly recommend this as a place to go out to!

Well done guys scrumptious food and service. Always a pleasure to visit this restaurant. Food is always fresh and cooked to perfection. The owner chef (Toni) is wonderful and she is always looking for customer feedback and if anything is ever negative she is always trying to improve on it. Well done guys and keep up the good work and the great food. Will definitely be back.

Solid greek food. Heavy on the oil though, especially on the potatoes and salad. Lamb chops were well seasoned, but a bit overcooked. Nothing wows you here, but they deliver a competent meal. Baklava was curiously presented though. It's not supposed to be a roll!

Great little Greek restaurant with great staff that provide the right atmosphere and service. The food is tasteful and you enjoy it. You get great great quality and quantity which is what everyone is looking for. Even on busy nights the staff try and cover all your needs and if the food is going to be delayed they don't avoid you they tell you. So in the end you don't mind because they have told you and when you taste it, its worth it. Give it a go they are really good. I recommend them to all. Well done guys.

Ordered the white bait and goat's cheese for entrée. these were good. Had the meat platter which was a real disappointment. A bit steep ($60) and for this you would expect the choicest cuts of meat. Unfortunately, more rissoles and fatty chunks than meat was what came out. We also ordered the blue eye, which was dry.

Bad experience in large groups. Ran out of food so beefed up meat platters with salad. Mould in water jug. The actual food wasn't bad but large groups get ripped. 2 hours after orders we got mains. This was some time ago so perhaps it has improved since.
