Very average, over priced, terrible tzatziki, I've had better "Greek" food experiences, however 10/10 for Daily the waiter!

I recently went here for my birthday and was made to feel so special. Food was fantastic but customer service made the experience. Will definitely be back!

They hadn't even cleared our entree dishes b4 bringing on the mains. They need to slow down and let people enjoy 10 minutes minimum between courses. Overly zealous whilst also pleasant and excellent food.

Food was lovely, flavour very well blended. I enjoyed the barramundi with the beetroot rocket salad.

Packed full, must be a good sign! A bit too salty for our taste especially the meat platter.

I've never had meat that was this good. Everything was absolutely beautiful. From the atmosphere to the service to the food. Started off with the Mastiha and Tonic which was so refreshing. Then had the Dolmathes which was the best I've had in Adelaide followed by the Colossus - a mixed platter of meatballs, skewers, Greek sausage, yiros and souvlaki which was out of this world. Finished it with an orange cake soaked in a sweet and delicious syrup. Will definitely be coming back here.

Brought two newbies who had never had Greek food before and they loved it all the food was cooked to perfection probably the freshest whitebait I've ever tasted the only criticism would be the lack of cocktails.

Had a seafood platter was decent especially if you consider the price and quantity. The octopus though had too much seasoning on it otherwise it would be a five star.

I would like to say a HUGE thank you to you and your staff for making my 50th Birthday celebrations on Saturday night (8th October) so perfect! From the very first contact we had we were blown away by how friendly and helpful they were. It didn’t matter who you spoke to they were all brilliant and super accommodating.

On the night, our table was largely looked after by Annika, she did an awesome job. So polite, friendly and efficient. It was also wonderful that you allowed us to have 4 separate drink tabs!

The food was delicious, the room was perfect, the service was outstanding. I could not be more happy, as were all of my guests. We will all be sure to sing your praises.

Thank you so much again I am very grateful to you all.

Such a festive environment, staff and food. Seafood was amazing, perfectly cooked with care taken on each type. Lamb was juicy, pink and beautifully seasoned. Chips,
and zucchini croquettes fried/baked were wonderful accompliments. Such an amazing night. Easy to find, easy to park, great value and clean bathrooms. Thank you
Popped back in for a late spring lunch. Menu was perfect, staff were beautiful and taste was authentic. Love it.

The best food is here - deliciousness on a plate! I had the vegetarian moussaka with a Greek salad and it was so good. I tried the souvlaki (lamb & chicken) which was soft, succulent & flavoursome and served with fluffy pillows of warm pita bread. The best dish was the Krokettes - zucchini & cheese balls lightly fried & served with skordalia. They were to die for!

Couldn't fault the service - our wait staff were friendly & attentive on a super busy night as the restaurant was packed. Can thoroughly recommend The Greek.

Edit: We dined here again recently (so 3 years after our first visit) & while the food was good, it just didn't seem to have that special quality that it had on our first visit. Table service was still excellent!

The food was actually really great in my experience. My partner couldn't say the same for the dish he ordered, but we definitely loved everything else. We ordered the calamari and chips to share, a chicken yiros for me and the lamb cutlets for him. It took a while to actually get service when the restaurant wasn't full yet, which was disappointing. I'm not sure how you can stare and try to wave down a waitresses and she just walk by to talk to another waitress without any acknowledgement. Luckily it was swiftly followed up by someone else who noticed, and the food made up for it all.

Called in for lunch today our first time. What can I say but absolutely amazing food and staff. I had the open yiros was so tender and plenty of it. We started with Kopanisti (Roasted capsicum, mild chili and feta served with pita) the wife had SPANAKOPITES (Traditional spinach pie with cheese & herbs, enveloped in a crispy file pastry) she didn’t share any but said it was amazing. For desert we had LOUKOUMATHES (SERVES 2) Hot honey puffs, drizzled with
honey and dusted with cinnamon. Unbelievable so good. The girl that served us was so friendly I wish I got her name, she’s a credit to the business. Definitely be back

My husband and I dined there this evening. I have to say the food was amazing. We ordered entree and mains. The servings were generous and not only tasted great but looked beautiful on the plate. The traditional cosy surroundings added warmth to the evening, will definitely revisit in the future. Pela

After hearing good things we went to The Greek on Halifax for my birthday the other night. We were welcomed and seated straight away with a bottle of water and were quite happy at that point. We perused the menu and deliberated on what we were going to choose for our meals. We then waited a considerable time and had to gain a waiters attention for service. It was quite early, 5: 40pm and they were busy laying tables so a little grace was given.
We ordered our meals and were convinced to also take a Greek salad to break up the meal which we obliged. The entrees came out within 5 minutes of ordering but were quite underwhelming considering their price as well as not being overly warm. Once finished the table was cleared and shortly after our mains were also brought out. I let the waiter know that my cutlery was also taken and he came back with a fork. Which by itself made it quite hard to eat my seafood and rice dish. In saying this the waiter was quite nice and obliging but to bring out just a fork when I told him my cutlery was taken, please. Anyway, I had the seafood mains and my wife had the Colossus. Both these dishes although nice, were also quite underwhelming considering the price. The colossus had salad on it and we were a little annoyed as we were persuaded to buy an extra salad for $18 which was basically some cucumber, tomato and a slice of feta. After finishing we were ready to leave but were then presented with the desert menu which I recommend in future be given at the start to help people decide on their order. We had a look but due to our luke warm mood we declined. Overall we left full but unsatisfied. Maybe this was due to all the good reviews and high expectations. We went to a cocktail bar up the road for a couple of drinks which ended up making the night finish on a positive.
