There were 4 of us and…read morebetween us we had the dolmades, the grilled eggplant with minced beef and bechamel and cheese, the fried battered zucchini, the meatballs, and the grilled octopus, and lamb and chicken and vegetable souvlaki meals, so that was 5 entrees plus 3 mains along with 2 glasses of wine and a soda for less than $160 which isn't too bad at all for a lovely dinner. Our only regret was that we were all so full we couldn't fit in any desserts. We'll definitely be back! By the way, My Greek Cuzina is the new name for Little Greek Cuzina.

Very disappointing, to say the least…read more This place was super busy when we arrived for dinner, and I thought that would be a good thing, but I was mistaken. We were seated a small table in a corner and squished in against the table next to us. Barely had room to get to my seat, and it was awkward trying to squeeze past the tables of the diners on either side of us. Our waitress gave us menus after she took us to our table, but took forever to come back and take our order. Yes, the place was busy, but waiting 15 minutes to order was not cool. At one point I was wondering if it was table service or counter service. We ordered a platter to share and some souvlaki skewers, specifically asking the waitress if the food could all come out at the same time, and she assured us that it would, but that it could take up to 40 minutes for the food to arrive and we said that was fine. Needless to say, about 20 minutes later the souvlaki skewers (delivered by a different waitress), and when I told her it was supposed to be served with the platter, she seemed thoroughly confused. She took the skewers back to the kitchen, and seemed to chat with someone in the kitchen. Then 5 minutes later, she came back out with our platter and skewers (the same ones she had taken back earlier), and again seemed very confused about the skewers. She put the plate down and announced they were checken and pork souvlaki skewers. I queried her on this as we had ordered chicken and lamb, and she was adamant they were chicken and pork. Another visit back to the kitchen and she came back and announced they were chicken and lamb souvlaki skewers. Definitely not a good sign when your waitstaff have no idea what they're serving. The food was disappointing. I've been to other Greek restaurants before and in comparison, the quality was lacking. For a platter for 2, the quantities were small. 3 small pieces of potato for 2 people? 1 small bowl of salad to share. The only thing in abundance was the pita bread and the moussaka. We chose to have the eggplant dip with our platter, and the raw garlic in the dip was so so overpowering. The souvlaki skewers were underwhelming - the lamb was dry and overcooked, while the chicken was just ok. All round, it wasn't a great experience. I'd like to say I'd give them another chance, but I won't be. My sister ended up getting sick after our dinner, and that was a deal breaker for us.

The first bite was a revelation - an explosion of flavors that took me on a culinary journey. The dish was perfectly balanced, with each ingredient contributing its unique taste.

Looking at past reviews here I guess it was time for an update!…read more They've changed the usual way of ordering at Vapiano: rather than the chefs cooking the pasta in front of you, everyone is to order at the cashier and receive a table number/sensor to bring to the table they decide to sit at. I do not mind this way at all, if anything it makes it more safer and efficient for staff to deliver the food rather than everyone trying to bring trays of food and drinks up and down the stairs. Met up with my gfs for dinner tonight - Ordered a roasted veggie pizza and my gf got a margarita pizza and creamy mushroom pasta. Not lying but I added pepper, olive oil, fresh basil leaves and salt to my pizza and it still had the audacity to taste bland ? I'm not a salt person but I did end up reaching for the salt 3 times over and it still wasn't a flavorful pizza....my friend agreed and did the same with her pasta. The complimentary bread also tasted like it was undercooked unfortunately- usually it's on point. Nothing wrong with the service, timing, ambience at all ! Just really put down from the food tonight sadly!

Actually delicious…read more Their vegetarian/vegan options are actually so amazing. We ordered the a starter dish without meat and received a whole bowl of mixed olives and sun dried tomatoes. Every bite had me wondering if the ingredients were grown in the garden of Eden itself. Tasting the olives was like kissing the lips of Jesus himself. I really didn't mind them cooking the pasta in front of me. (Apart from the little voice in my head that kept questioning why their pasta made me salivate in ways my home cooked food can't). The place upstairs is really aesthetically pleasing by its fresh decor and hydroponic basil plantation. Also, unsure if the basil pots are there as decor or to eat??? But my partner are 7 pots while we were drunk. ;) shhhh.

When we arrived, the atmosphere was very warm and inviting. We were greeted promptly at the hostess stand, and seated at a cozy table for 2. We had a nice view of everything. I could see the bartender creating fun and creative cocktails. I enjoyed watching all the great creations passing by us coming from the kitchen. I already know many of the dishes I would like to try next time. The scallops and the squash blossoms. Such a fun vibe here, everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves while they were dining here. Don't forget to checkin on Yelp. They offer a free tiramisu- which was delicious. We started with cocktails, we each ordered the Sicilian Mojito, we both found it to be very refreshing and delicious. We shared the rust salad, cool and refreshing. My friend had the boacaiola pasta, he declared it delicious. He inhaled it. All talking stopped, and I aware he didn't put his fork down, just shoveled pasta into his mouth. Definitely says he will order this again. I enjoyed the vegetariana pizza. So yummy. I only ate a third of it- knowing we still had dessert coming. Plus, I really enjoy eating pizza the next day, and look forward to my leftovers. We both agreed we enjoyed everything we ordered- and will definitely be back. Our server was very friendly, checking in with us thru out our dining experience.

We started with the bruschetta that came out so quick. It tasted fresh. Our main pasta dishes took about 50 min to come out from the time we ordered.

I would give the restaurant another shot because it didn't seem like the wait was normal (other tables were receiving their food quickly) so really not sure what happened.

I've eaten in several times, including for a birthday dinner a couple of years ago. The staff were very accommodating to our extremely large table and to the extras who continued to appear, magicking up extra chairs and taking new orders at a moment's notice. My personal favourite and my regular takeaway order is the beef lasagne, which is rich, tomatoey, and cheesy: everything you could want in a lasagne. I've never been dissatisfied with a dish, and prices are reasonable. Be prepared to need to be rolled out after a big meal!

It just feels like a the perfect blending of Greece and Queensland. I had the lamb and pork souvlaki, which was delicious. The meals sizes are quite generous too. Will I be back? Yes, yes I will.
