    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.
