Quite simply one of the best, if not, the best Greek restaurant in Melbourne. Great food, exceptional service and a great drinks list. The cocktails, in a particular, are first rate.

We had a large group and it was a perfect area for this. However service started off slow and one of the staff members seemed like they didn’t want to be there. Maybe a little smile would help as I understand everyone has bad days. Food was delicious wish there were a few more options for vegetarians and gluten free. Drinks amazing. All in all we had a good night and they split the bill for us.
