    We enjoyed our meal, the service was excellent however I think it was very overpriced. The wine glasses were also small serves. The bill was about $230 for 3 people with 1 drink each. The most annoying thing was when we checked the bill, we were overcharged on the bill not just for each of our drinks but for a 3rd bottle of sparkling water. I have to question whether this is accidental? It’s worth checking the bill

    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 great experience. The staff were nice, the food was good, as was the wine, and the selection of Greek and non-Greek alcoholic beverages. We enjoyed the cocktails based on Greek spirits. The ambience was great. We had a wonderful time and I will be going again.
