I celebrated my birthday here with a group of nearly 20 people. The booking process was smooth, and the staff accommodated a few modifications I requested. I appreciate the attentive service and the quality of the food. The servers were very accommodating and friendly, which made our experience more enjoyable. We enjoyed the banquet 2, which was quite filling, and the cocktails were very refreshing. We were seated in a nearly secluded area of the restaurant, which was pleasant. When we encountered a minor misunderstanding, the staff responded promptly and professionally, demonstrating excellent customer service.
Had high exceptations for this Greek restaurant with the reviews and looking at the menu but unfortunately, some of the worst service we have encountered in years due to not enough staff to provide a good level of service. Waited 10-15 mins to get a seat even though we had booked, then almost 45 minutes for a starter of Saganaki which we found lacking in taste and seemed like it had been left for a while before been served. After advising the waiter we had waited sometime, the response was to blame the kitchen staff and say it was nothing to do with them, quite an interesting answer. Not long afterwards, a signature platter for 2 with Chicken & lamb souvlaki, octopus, calamari, haloumi, tzatziki, pita was served. Octopus was way over cooked, making it almost inedible and the calamari had no virtually no seasoning. Only saving grace was the Lamb skewers, tzatziki and pita but still a little on the tough side and a little fatty. We were sat by an open window outside but could not hear the music inside as the noise level pretty much matched the Gabba. Not an enjoyable experience and no plans to return, not with the quality of a lot of other Greek restaurants been so high in Brisbane.
We had booked for 12:30 on a Saturday, but a traffic accident that slowed our journey meant a last minute change to 1:00, which was happily accommodated. There were some tables available when we arrived. We elected to sit outside, which was pleasant and comfortable, but moved inside as the sun moved across the table. The menu was very broad, with fabulous vegetarian, seafood and meat options. There were 4 of us and we ordered 3 entrees and 3 main meals. We also had desserts. This was about right. The drinks menu was also excellent, with cocktails, wine, beer and non-alcoholic offerings. We had cocktails and they were amazing. The food arrived very quickly and was fresh and delicious. My beautiful wife rated the halloumi as the best ever, including her trips to Europe. The fish, chicken and lamb were all first rate. Each meat dish was cooked to perfection and the salad and vegetables were firm, with precisely the right amount of dressing. The whipped potato was a fabulous surprise. The staff were very friendly and nothing was a problem. The pricing was surprisingly fair, making this dining experience very good value. This was a superb experience.
Fantastic Greek restaurant with lovely lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, great service and most importantly delicious food. We had the Lamb Yiros, Moussaka and a dip starter. The portions were generous and filling. The lamb was so soft and flavourful. The pita tasted very fresh. Overall an absolutely lovely experience and looking forward to come back and try more on the menu.
OMG this was a mind blowing restaurant, the food was Devine. The lemon potato's were heavenly. Service was great. Going back soon
