    Perfect location and good Mediterranean fare. As we opted for an early dinner, we were the only table for pretty much the whole time we were there so food was great and service attentive without hovering. We went with the server's recommendation for their banquet course which served a selection of dishes so we got a taste of different choices and something for everyone. Loved everything. Happy hours from 5-7pm meant we could have cocktails for $12. Not bad for the strawberry margarita I ordered.

    Roasted barramundi

    Tour group enjoyed a celebratory dinner. Our group ordered barramundi, lamb shoulder and an eggplant vegetarian dish. The lamb shoulder was tender, the barramundi was delicious and the eggplant was excellent with a favorable tomato sauce. We started with warm olives and hummus appetizer, yummy. Loved the wharf side setting. Delightful staff. Would definitely recommend

    Nice Greek place for lunch, not cheap but fresh food and clean bathrooms.

    Date night! You couldn't ask for better service and the food was incredible. I started off with a Greek red...full of flavour with a nice sharpness about it. Now I know you are not suppose to have red wine with seafood...but who bothers with that rule now if you enjoy certain drinks..stick with it. Oh that red was going down fast! Then the entree (first dish in Oz). Stuffed calamari! The calamari was lightly cooked (as it should be...yeah have done one of those seafood cooking classes) and stuffed with herbs topped with a delicate, little, grilled octopus. The vision was something out of a vogue magazine and tasted as if I was in the final battle of My Kitchen Rules. The main dish: A whole fish, The flesh pulled away from the bone with beautiful ease. The eye of the fish looked at me as if to say.."Enjoy every bite, I made a big sacrifice!" Poor little fishy! The fish was delicious. Oh wait there is more!!! Yes...we fitted in dessert. Now the bottle of red has disappeared..we are in a jolly form. The dessert just topped it off. Each dessert was truly original and tasted heavenly. The staff were attentive and very pleasant. The restaurant has a voucher system and promotions often...this is a great place to celebrate a special night or just go out for dinner with someone close to the heart.

    You know those nights when you're trying to impress a girl and when the sun sets over the water the sky is on fire and it's like the Universe is winking at you and saying "Get ON, playa"? Well, that happened, and those nights are also the best kind of weather for Mediterranean food because hairy guys in Speedos swimming off Ios and other such things. Pulling up one of the little couch/corner arrangements right on the King St Wharf promenade and sipping wine while the temperate breeze washes the romance of the ocean over you like God's own cologne is a hell of a way to start the night. Tanned men clad in black with stiff collars and plunging necklines and wonderfully oiled hair will bring platters of pita bread and taramasalata, yoghurt dip and spanakopita, grilled prawns and octopus, chicken skewers and lamb kofta, and these limber men will wink at your girlfriend every time they put a plate down but it's okay because if you play your cards right they might just wink at you too and wouldn't that be a thrill?

    Had a breakfast/brunch here, upon arriving in Sydney. The owners greeted my wife as she peruses the menu. We were easily convinced to give it a try, and glad we did. The eggs were fresher than anything we've had at home in the States. The Feta In their Omlet was top notch and the Hollandaise on the Benedict had a surprise bite of mustard. Mmmmm!

    A nice twist on halloumi, paired with watermelon and mint

    Why is it that whenever I go to a Greek restaurant all I want to do is order a ton of appetisers/small plates?! Well, that's the route I took (yet again) today. The hortokeftedes (dumplings of fresh herbs), my attempt to fit some "greens" in, were a bit unremarkable -- not bad, just not an obvious must-order next time through. The lamb cutlets weren't the best cuts of meat, but cooking them with a hint of wild honey was genius! And the halloumi (because there MUST always be cheese!) was paired with watermelon and mint, whose sweet and minty flavour was the perfect complement to the savoury and salty of grilled cheese. Finished off with a light and sweet kataifi (kinda like a Greek panna cotta) for dessert. This place has the great vibe and views most of King Street Wharf is known for. I came back because of great experiences here years ago (including my first ever time eating goat), and it did not disappoint, then or now.

    Gorgeous day to be sitting outside at King Street Wharf having an early lunch. The sun was shining and I forgot how nice it was to actually the leave the office for an hour and just relax. Life passes far too quickly! I digress. We were attended to by friendly staff who suggested some of the mezzes on the menu as we weren't particularly hungry. They were good enough to ensure we had enough food for two and over-order as some other places do. Top choices I would suggest - pork belly, deep fried king prawns, lamb souvalaki, grilled stuffed calamari and last but not least, fried squid. I will definitely be back when summer comes around. Totally stuffed by the end of it!

    George's Mediterranean Bar and Grill is a greek restaurant situated on the waterfront of King St Wharf Darling Harbour. We stopped in for breakfast on a Sunday. The restaurant has a large alfresco dining area and also has indoor seating. We were greeted by the friendly waitstaff who provided us with great service throughout the meal. They were attentive without being OTT; They ensured our water glass was filled, also checking to see how we were going with the meal and if we needed anything. I had an American breakfast with scrambled eggs,pancakes, bacon and maple syrup which was delicious!

    Asking $5 for a coffee demands a level or service or quality of experience far beyond what was offered on the day I visited.

    Maybe I'd had to many reds before we got here; maybe I wasn't in the mood; maybe we should have…read moregone Japanese.... I dunno what, but Athenian did not live up to my expectations, or my admittedly distant memories of a fine lunch had long ago. Went with a party of about 7 for Friday night after after-works drinks, (always a bit risky I guess) and all pretty hungry. Got a table no problem, (bit surprising on a Friday night) and away we went. Dolmades, spanokopita, tzatziki, taramasalata, pita bread, calamari for entrees. Hmm. The calamari was a mixture of baby calamari leggy bits and strips of tune - seemed ok but a bit greasy. Spanokopita, nice, dips, nice, pita bread, fresh but a bit greasy. Dolmades, ok but a bit soft. Mains, for most, was the lamb shoulder in one form or another, in my case with braised veg, and my fellow diners with with a mixture of roasties and salad. The lamb was well cooked, but a bit greasy, and my veg was braised regrettably long, to the point where it all tasted the same - and a bit greasy. Common theme appearing here, right? To be fair, there was nothing really wrong with it all (except it was a bit greasy) but nothing really memorable or especially right with it either. I'll probably give it another go for old times sake, but on the basis of this meal I would say there is much better Greek to be had in the area.

    We used to come here all the time for work lunches circa-2009. I'd forgotten it was even here!…read more Wandered past on a Monday night looking for somewhere to eat - and the (hacy, wine-infused) memories came flooding back! Had an excellent eggplant and feta dip with pita and the Athenian mixed special (lamb and various vegetables/leaves stuffed with spiced mince and sometimes cheese) - all very tasty. Slow cooked beef looked excellent. Decent, well-priced wine list. Pleasant service, great for groups.

    Traditional Gyradiko has opened up in Rosebery!!!!…read more I've heard about this place out in Bexley but since that's a bit of a trek...never made it out there. Well hot damn I'm so glad it just opened up out this way. You can get takeaway or eat in...if you eat in you can bring the whole family as there's plenty of space. They serve alcohol too...what's not to like? You can get a gyro for $9, and if you want chips and a drink just tack on $5...can you say value?!? They have other dishes, but some weren't available yet like their burgers (I will eat you...maybe not now...but I will eat you.) I got the pork gyro and it was fan-fuggin-tastic. Tender meat and their chips are really really good...they must sprinkle the good stuff on them. They also make their own sauces, and I loved their aioli. Will definitely be back to get more gyro goodness as well as trying their platters.

    Went to try the food here after it had been named as one of the top 5 gyros in Sydney (xplore)…read more While neither of us actually ordered gyro we were not disappointed. We both ordered a plate which came with crispy, pork cooked to perfection. If you enjoy crackling, get the pork! Side of tasty chips, fresh greek salad, good sized portion of tzatziki and AMAZING pita bread. The small platter cost $16 including a soft drink and the portion size was more than enough for me. The staff were also friendly and chatted to all of the customers who came through. Plenty of seating as well as being a take away shop. Will definitely be going back for a gyro!

    I'm pretty amazed that there are only three reviews of what might fairly be called a Sydney…read moreinstitution. Steki has been around for donkey's years and for good reason: they serve some of the consistently best Greek food in the Big Smoke. The Newtown location is admittedly a bit of a pain to get to, as in fact almost all locations along the frenetic King Street. That said, once you make it into the premises it is a pleasant and sedate atmosphere. The staff are friendly and outgoing, without being too boisterous or invasive. The real draw is the food. Almost everything they serve is first-rate. I am particularly a fan of their taramoussalata. I think they'll do a skordalia at certain times, too. All of the starters are great, but I would recommend the octopus or the bekri mezze. The mains are equally good, but the lamb (of course!) and the makaronada (seafood pasta) are personal faves. They also have a number of potent potables. I usually opt for something from the Margaret River or SA, but my Greek buddy always goes for the retsina (I can't say I am a fan, but admittedly retsina is an acquired taste and he assures me it's very good here). Some nights have live music, but somehow I have always missed those and after COVID, I don't know what the protocol is. Either way, Steki is definitely worth a try. Hopa!

    Going into Steki is a trip to Greece with the dimply lit tavern transporting patrons to another…read moreplace. It is down O'Connell street next to the new Berkeulouws, so you may not be familiar with it if you don't venture off King Street. The food is amazing, this is the place for Greek food in the area. The dips are tasty with lots of garlic and warm pita to scoop it up. Don't go overboard though because the haloumi served with tomato and lemon is to die for, as is the superbly cooked calamari and cheese and spinach triangles. For a main you can't go past the slow baked lamb, which literally melts in your mouth and has a rich salty flavour best eaten with liberal amounts of lemon. It is served with potatoes and should definitely be accompanied by a big Greek salad which has a generous slab of feta. The baked lamb is my favourite but I have also tried the veal kefalograviera (rich with tomato and cheese) as well as the vegetarian moussaka and the souvlaki. Steki is licenced so be prepared to buy wine, and then drink it in small tumblers. The atmosphere of Steki is sensational, with a band on a Friday and Saturday night playing Greek favourites, with space to get up and have a dance. After a bottle of wine I am in there with the regulars laughing hysterically... Prices are reasonable for the quality of the food and the overall dining experience. If you don't order wine it can be quite a cheap meal if sharing, as portions are generous.
