I came to Kafenes to have dinner with my family and celebrate my 30th birthday. The staff were wonderful, very friendly and helpful, and the menu had a good range for vegetarians, not just a token dish. The prices didn't seem particularly cheap but the food turned out to be fantastic value. This was truly one of the best meals I have ever enjoyed, definitely the most wonderful Greek food I have ever eaten.

There were plenty of Greek customers there, a promising sign and when we saw the size of the mains coming out of the kitchen we realised that a main course each would be far too much. Instead we ordered as many of the appetizers as we thought we could handle and four main courses to feed the ten of us. To start with we had some fantastic dips: taramosalata, scordalia, melitzana and htipiti, served with lovely soft warm pita. These were so tasty we ordered more to keep us going until the appetizers arrived.

The spanakopita was perfect and not too heavy, and the dolmades disappeared within minutes. The hot dish of bouyourti (fetta cheese with tomato and chilli) was my favourite, the BBQ octopus was tender and tangy, the zucchini dumplings were light and fluffy. The beef and lamb dumplings in tomato sauce were rich and very satisfying.

For mains the children shared chicken lemonato, which they loved. The rest of us ate lamb- stamnato, cooked in a clay pot with potatoes, tomatoes, chilli and cheeses, and exohiko, lamb baked with haloumi and vegetables. The lamb was beautiful, it just fell off the bone in juicy pieces. We followed with strong Greek coffee and a sticky slab of baklava (we didn't need this but ordered it on principle!) Even the kids agreed that this was a perfect meal.

Everytime I Visit Kafenes in Enmore I leave with a smile on my face. The food is always perfect and delicious, as an Italian we love good food and if you love good Greek foods this is a place you will need to come too. You will enjoy the overall experience.

Came on a friend's recommendation. Being of greek descent found the food to be authentic greek cuisine as my mum would prepare with the best quality ingredients. Portions were very generous for the prices charged. The ambience was just like being in a restaurant in Greece. Staff were very helpful and gracious at all times. I would like to thank the management and staff for a great dining experience can't wait to go back.

I have to say one of the best dining experiences that we have had in a long time. Service was lovely, warm and attentive. Came here with a large group of 20 for friends farewell, arranged to have the $45 banquet, food was excellent and lots of, especially the moussaka one of the best I have ever had everything was mouth watering and staff were friendly always smiling and helpful, could not believe they gave us complimentry loukoumades cake for our friends farewell highly recommended for a great nite out.

Had come here on several occasions and have realised that the quality and flavour of the food has seriously declined. Talk about an overload of olive oil. Salads are disgustingly oily. We were a larger group and most were disappointed with quality of food vs $$.

Zucchini dumplings used to be fluffy and tasty, they have gone downhill. Chicken again was overcooked and dry and lacked flavour, prawns that accompany it were rubbery. Lamb was dry. Unfortunately, the moussaka which used to be a favourite seemed to be swimming in oils/grease, a heart attack waiting to happen. Hoping desserts to be the hero of the night, and that was my greatest disappointment!

The place was full, therefore loud, and with 'ambient' music emanating from a speaker above my head did nothing to help rescue the night. If you would like to have a conversation over dinner, do not come here! I also found the senior staff, to be fairly rude and pushy, as we had finished dinner we were practically kicked out of the place due to there being another booking, total lack of proper management, considering that the night cost us approx $65 per head, and not even receiving the remaining bottles of wine that we BYO'd is just a complete let down.

Went there before a show and so glad we pick this restaurant. Order the Banquet at $40p/p and the food just kept on coming and absolutely delicious, the lamb which was the main was to die for. Would not hesitate to go back again.

Brilliant dining experience, service is exceptional from the moment my partner and I walked in the door, to the complimentary dessert we received before leaving
we ordered the banquet, everything was delicious. The highlight for me being the extremely tender roast lamb, we have been back two more times and each visit was better than the previous, one of the best restaurants in Sydney.

Went there with a group of 8. Service wasn't the best, we sat there for 10 minutes before getting the waitresses attention. Food was ok a litttle expensive. Cost us just over $50 each with no alcohol and walked out hungry! Very disappointed.

Went here midweek with a group of 5 for a birthday dinner. Excellent service. Very friendly and relaxed but also very responsive to our requests (eg to slow down the delivery of our food which came out a bit too quickly at one point). We had the $45 pp banquet (there are cheaper banquet options on the menu). Plenty of food and all delicious. The lamb and beef meatballs, moussaka, and the main lamb dish were divine. Moussaka was, perhaps, a little too salty (which I loved but may be an issue for some). Decore is simple but the food, service and general ambience of the place quickly make up for it.

Brilliant, what a great place. I went there with my husband for our anniversary together with my sister and her husband. The food was fantastic, the octopus was tender and the meat very moist. The staff were welcoming and efficient. Being greek ourselves, we found the food to be completely authentic without any modernising and very generous. Thank you Kafenes for a great evening. We'll be back!
