WOW What an experience this was. Started off with a warm greeting from the staff. Prompt order and prepared so quickly. The team are really in sync with one another. I received my order within a minute of sitting down. The food Ordered a mixed Souvlaki and where do I start. Bread was warm fluffy but also nice and toasty at the same time. The came the fresh produce and the perfect lamb and chicken which was grilled to perfection. The tzatziki they have is out of this world. The chips I ordered were really nice and fresh and similar to the bread crunchy yet fluffy inside. 10 out of 10 experience and will definitely be back. They have great vegetarian options like grilled halloumi wrap and are halal too

Exceptional Souvlaki Experience in the Heart of Melbourne! I stumbled upon this gem of a souvlaki restaurant near Southern Cross Train Station, and it has become my absolute favorite in Melbourne! The staff is incredibly friendly, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The proximity to the train station is a bonus for convenience. The souvlaki here is so delicious that I find myself craving it every day. A must-try for any food enthusiast!

Amazing traditional souvlaki. Service was great! They went out there way to provide everything we asked for, even though it wasn’t on the menu. Could take a bit of time as they were short staffed but it’s always worth the wait to enjoy a fresh cut souvlaki. Will definitely be back!

Im surprised by the reviews. This greek restaurant was mediocre. Tastes good, but salad is and chips weren't fresh. The service was friendly and fast.

Closed an hour before their closing time because, "I have to pack up the shop and my shift ends at 1am". Mate, adjust the opening hours so people dont waste their time. Close at 12 then if it takes a whole hour to pack up the shop. Malaka.

Chips, Lamb Only Souvlaki

  • Shin Hee Kwon

Chips were good, the mixed souvlaki was amazing, but for the price I wish the customer service was better. I took a seat while waiting and I was aggressively asked if i was going to eat there lol like chill I just wanted to be comfortable while waiting for my takeaway …

  • Calmir Smith

Ordered HSP, Chips were cold and dry (surely over at least 3-4hours old). Chicken was DRY, lamb was meh. Figured i'd give this joint a go as i live in the CBD, this is by far the worse i'd had. plenty of good places near this. Seriously cannot believe the quality.

Terrible experience coming here. Food was average but the service was awful. The young guy serving me had no manners and seemed annoyed that I was there. Will never come here again.
