Eleni's Kitchen + Bar

Had the best night to celebrate New Years. Fantastic Eleni's team all at their best, looking after everyone with a smile. Tried some new Greek cocktails which were fantastic. The combined meat and seafood platter was so well done, with every item perfectly cooked, high quality.and devoured! We feel so lucky to have Eleni's in Yarraville. So many happy guests enjoyed genuine hospitality. Thanks to all the Team!

We went here for my Wife's Birthday dinner with the kids, as soon as the food came out, both kids said we are coming here for every birthday from now on. The meat was tender and juicy especially the Lamb Cutlets, the service was great and the Galaktoboureko was amazing.

Only small issue was it was really noisy but the meal was unbelievable totally coming back for more

We had an hour and 45 seating but waited for 15min before we got the menu. Thankfully the food didn't take too long but we soon found out how they achieved this with a full restaurant. The dip platter were all pre-scooped and plated as the color outside was different to the interior. Similar to when you have left something out with the rest for some time.

The seafood platter was a disappointment as everything tasted frozen. The prawns especially, was mushy which indicates improper or inconsistent freezing temperatures. The owner/manager confirmed all the seafood were fresh frozen when we raised our concerns.

It a bummer as I had great dishes from this place E.g moussaka

Such a great gem in Yarraville. Always booked out and I can see why. Such huge generous portions, lots of vege and seafood options as an alternative to meat. Definitely will be going back!

Me and my husband went after seeing the restaurant on television. We enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere more than expected. Can't wait to go again.

Drove an hour and a half to celebrate a friends birthday at this venue. Spent half an hour crammed into a corner forced to stand, drink never came, a tiny plate with 1 piece of cheese and some bread and dip eventually came out enough to feed 3 people not 10. Music so loud we couldnt hear each other yell, spent 70 bucks a head, got 1 piece of bread. Upstairs was so overcrowded well beyond safe limits we were literally shoulder to shoulder, waiter insisted “cram yourself in there somewhere” if there was a fire or any other emergency theres no way possible people could have escaped.
Disgraceful, went to the pub across the road for food instead.

After attending a function which included a banquet for $70 per head I’d have to say that it was one of the most disappointing nights I have ever dined out.
Seating was at 7.30pm, food didn’t start arriving until 8.30 pm. We were that tightly seated that we ran out of room on the table therefore guests arriving later actually left (7 total).
We were seated literally 1-2 meters from the band’s speakers therefore unable to even hear each other speak. We as a couple decided to leave at 10.30pm and at this stage desserts hadn’t even been served. Next time you decided to hold a large gathering like this Elinis, maybe consider the comfort of your guests before worrying about how much money you can make.
NEVER AGAIN WILL WE SEE YOU.

A certain platter should include the bread as part of the meal. The place isn't too bad definitely will need to come back to try again

This is the best banquet I have ever had at a Greek restaurant, staff are friendly and attentive. Food comes out fast and there is plenty of it!
They even made special dishes for people in my party that had dietary requirements. I highly recommend next time your in Yarraville!

Very expensive for what you get. $45 for a small grilled fish and ‘salad’ which was in reality just a garnish of a few lettuce leaves.

Feta chips weren’t great either at $10, frozen chips with a small sprinkling of feta, I have enjoyed much nicer feta fries at other Greek restaurants.

Restaurant is buzzy, I found service to be a little pushy, but the coffee was really good.

Wouldn’t rush back.

Have had lunch /dinner also a taven night plus a birthday lunch the food is always fantastic staff are always attentive. Terri and her sister always go out of their way to make sure we all have a good time. Jan &Laurie

Fabulous family owned Greek restaurant with wonderful home style dishes. Great staff, good wine list and lots of atmosphere!

The most authentic Greek in the West! Beautifully cooked food, great atmosphere and lovely staff who are always so accommodating. Highly recommend the banquet set menu, as it provides a good taster of everything.

Food was (a bit pricey but) awesome, service just as good, but the music was way too loud that we had to yell to each other.

Recently had a dinner with 23 guests at Eleni’s Kitchen and Bar and found them very helpful to deal with regarding our booking. Food and atmosphere was highly rated by our group.

I honestly can’t recommend Eleni’s enough!
From the Dips, Haloumi, Greek sausage, Meat platter, Lemon potatoes, Greek salad and lastly and most importantly the Dessert is hands down amazing! I could eat there every single night and never get sick of it. I literally smile making a booking! Your are always given a warm welcome. Beautiful place and definitely my favourite!

The best Greek restaurant in Melbourne! The food is amazing and always fresh. The atmosphere and music will make you feel like you are in Greece itself. The staff are so friendly and prompt with their service. This is truly a great establishment. We always love dining at Eleni's!

We had a group booking of 8. When we wanted to order desserts, we were told that we only had 15 minutes of our reserve booking and would have to leave, despite tables being available upstairs. We were only there for 1 hr and 15 minutes.
We left and supported another cafe near by.
Unfortunately this has left a bad taste in my mouth and l wouldn’t go back there again.

The food here is amazing. Customer service 10/10. Beautiful place.
Have been here a few times now also dessert all I can say is wow
