Great service - lovely food. Kids had calamari (huge portions), my husband and I shared king prawns and Moreton Bay ‘bugs’ - a new one on us. The chips were possibly best I’ve ever had in a restaurant. Beautiful pitta bread and dips to start, & olives were to die for. Only complaint would be the prices (but then all food in Adelaide is expensive we have found, compared with �).

We had the seafood metaxa and the bugs, the olives & haloumi .. We couldn't fault it, the flavours were incredible and it's the best meal I've had in a restaurant for quite some time.. We were made to feel so welcome and would eat there again .. Efharisto x

We have just had the best cooked Quail this afternoon at the Greek on Halifax. Cooked to perfection....... We deviated from our normal Saturday lunch menu today.......everything tastes authentic and good but you can’t always find someone who cooks quail perfectly..... today we did...... guess what we will order next week?

Amazing atmosphere and great portion size. I ordered a valentine special - duck confit and mushroom risoni, the only downside I had with it was the overcooked duck, I’m not sure if this is how confit protein supposed to taste like but it tasted very dry and almost a little bitter to my taste. Everything else on the plate was flavoursome and I’m sure it’ll be a crowd pleaser. I’m more of a bland taster, so I’ll prefer the risoni to cook less with cheeses. Also, plating wise can be done in a better job I reckon? It looked rather messy. Again, it’s just me being knit picking.

My boyfriend had a lamb baked in filo pastry thingy. It was the best lamb I’ve tasted so far. It was very tender and juicy, and doesn’t taste too “lamb-y” at all, which is what I like. Overall the experience was very good, I’ll definitely come back for the lamb and souvlaki!

The perfect place to gather a group of friends for a Greek feast. We sat outside and enjoyed balmy weather and with the friendly relaxed atmosphere and authentic food, I honestly almost convinced myself I was up in Europe. Really loved the wine list and the moussaka was on point. A tempting looking dessert selection, but we were too full to give any a go!

Went with two friends on a windy rainy Sunday late morning when so much of the area was closed. Two side function rooms had big family tables full but main area of cafe was empty. Service was brisk n brash n enthusiastic. We ordered a broad range of dishes: swordfish, haloumi salad, spanakopita, Greek platter – goats cheese, olives. Pickles , dips, breads. Everything that came out was incredibly fresh and delicious. We were blown away. The cheese, the olives, bread, pastry, dressings, fish all cooked or prepared to delicate perfection. Best Greek food I’ve had in Australia, hands down.

This is a place that keeps on giving. I’ve been here quite a few times over the years and they’re consistent with the quality of food they deliver. Great place for a dinner celebration where you can share the abundance of food. Everything pictured was flavoursome and cooked to perfection. Service was excellent as always. Fantastic and classic Greek food in the cbd.

Ambience was really lovely. We had a small cosy room to ourselves to celebrate our friend’s birthday. We ordered the mixed platter and moreton bug bay to share for 6 people. The lamb is really good and cook well. The lamb chop taste was not very strong and you can smell the chargrill. Overall really satisfied with the service too!

GREECE IS THE WORD
I very much enjoyed my Saturday night dinner at The Greek.
Its in an attractive historic brick building with the dining area spread over many rooms as well as some outdoor tables in a lovely setting. Interesting & eye catching decor too.
The service was good - there seemed to be a plethora of wait staff, always smiling.
Make sure to check out the dessert menu before ordering your food so you can pace yourself & save room for a sweet something afterwards.
She had the braised goat with mash - so tender & real comfort food for a cold night.
He had lamb skewers on rice & enjoyed them.
I had the special beef patty stuffed with haloumi & spinach. The roast potatoes were fab & such a generous serving too.
The only slip up was the side order of pita showed up when we were half way through our meals.
For afters she & I shared the cream kataiffi which was very rich & filling.
When we left, we walked around the back to have a look at the massive chimney which is very striking.

In 2002, Mary and Stan Galantomos opened The Greek on Halifax with the hope of telling their family’s story through their love of Greek food. 15 years later, Mary now runs the Adelaide institution with her son, Ross, and they have definitely fulfilled this hope. Soon after opening, The Greek became known for exceptional food, their spectacular atmosphere and location on Halifax Street, great wine, and customer service that makes you feel like you’re having dinner at Mum’s place. Their long-lasting success is undoubtedly due to their combination of this warm hospitality and treasured family recipes presented in a modern, fresh way, whilst using the best produce available here in South Australia. On The Chopping Board (OTCB) was recently invited to celebrate 15 years of the restaurant, and all food and beverages were provided on behalf of The Greek on Halifax.

The Greek, on Halifax Street Adelaide, is celebrating it’s 15th anniversary with a renovation to showcase the beautiful space. The red brick walls and the tall chimney are what’s left of the old disinfector building from the 1900s, with the chimney seen behind the building.

This is a fantastic choice on historic Halifax Street. The restaurant is well laid out with plenty of room inside and out; and the menu has loads of choices catering  for vegetarians as well. The service is so friendly - the staff genuinely make you feel welcome and valued. It was an absolute delight to sit out on the pavement area and enjoy real Greek food. The dolmades served with yoghurt were  soft and full of flavour and take you right back Greece!
Highly recommend this place - easy parking around the streets some with no ticket required; food genuine and great quality; coffee strong and full of flavour; service top class. Definitely give this place a go even if just for a quick visit. I am  going back ... soon!

Coming here with a Greek man was always going to be a risk. He is of the "anything you can do, my yiayia can do better" type mindset, HOWEVER he thoroughly enjoyed his meal and the taste he had of mine. Phew! The starters of olives and the dip platter were great (best pita omg!), particularly mouth watering was the taramasalata dip. For mains, the colossus was divine with all the meat marinated and cooked to perfection. My special of the day was lamb backstrap with feta and olive mash and red wine reduction which was quite simply the best mash and lamb I've ever had. The Greek salad was simple but as it used the best of everything, it was delicious. Large servings and beautiful, quality ingredients. Worth paying a visit, even if your yiayia is a great cook ;)

I've been the the Greek on Halifax several times for dinner and I can't fault the food. The flavours are so delicious, portion sizes are generous and the food is fresh and tasty. If you love meat you can't go wrong, there's loads of grill options to choose from. The dips and meze are also very tasty and it might be easier to share some of these with an order of a meat main like the souvlaki skewers if you're dining as a group of friends. There's a private dining area for group functions and I have had a hens day here. For the price we paid there was plenty of food to share. Sometimes because they are busy service can be a bit delayed but all in all it's a really great place to eat.

Went here with a group of 10+ to a work event. I have dietary issues and they were excellent at catering for this - responsive to messages, knew who I was when I got there, happy to customise to help me - A+. Food all great except my calamari was a bit average - but that wasn't their fault as I'd told them to do it plain. The moussakas and similar everyone else was having looked amazing. Great dessert menu, flourless chocolate cake somehow dense but not too rich. Would recommend.

Very friendly service.
Craving for good Greek food on a cold wet Adelaide night, we opted for The Greek since they have good ratings.
The place was really nice and kept warm on a cold night.
For the menu, we tried the Chef's special Soupa (sour soup). I wouldn't have ordered it if the description said it was a sour soup. But it was still okay. We also ordered for the platter of dips. Not the best I've tried. The winner for the night was the chocolate cake desert that our server gladly warmed up for us upon request. It was not sweet and perfectly warmed.

Slightly unusual visit.  We like greek food and The Greek is a, albeit rarely visited, favourite. Our Mr 17 is a very fussy eater and I am 100% confident the only food he might eat here are the chips.  He and I visited and ordered the greek style chips. They are delivered and Mr 17 eats a few after attempting to brush off the garnish (basil etc).  An observant staff member comes across and obviously wanting us to have a good time, after some discussion, takes the garnished chips and a few minutes later returns with two bowls, garnished and ungarnished.  Mr 17 eats a few more.  We get home and with the wife, ask him his rating of the chips - about 4 out of 10 he says - highlighting yup he's a fussy eater.  Full marks for great service to the Greek though!

Loved it. From the service, to the food, to the wine list, to their presence in the SA cookbook and allowing me peruse it while we waited for our meal. I let them know we had a fringe show to attend so would need to eat and run, the service was fast and the meals arrived promptly without compensating on flavour or presentation. I had the mousakka and enjoyed every mouthful, taste just like Yia-Yia used to make. Although I'm not Greek or have a Yia-Yia. But this is how I imagine it went down. The partner had the Yiros and my friend had the lamb. The lamb just fell of the bone and I suffered major food envy. That's ok, we'll be back.

Came here for valentine lunch. It was busy but lucky we've got table for two. There are two area, outdoor and indoor. Both are fine. It wasn't noise outside coz it's a quiet street. I like the decor inside. Staff are friendly, service was good. Our order came after 30min, not bad for busy moment. Saganaki was beautiful, bigger than other greek restaurant I went to. Chargrilled quail with rice also nice, there is three quail served. Lamb and chicken yirros was beautiful, just like other yirros. And loukaniko sausages was great, awesome. It was a decent portion and reasonable price. If you come two maybe 2 main course and one entree just enough. We ended up take home some of food even we eat like a horse.

Great Food and Friendly Service. Cute restaurant set in an old brick factory type buliding with a lovely atmosphere. We visited on a week night and the place was about half full. We were greeted on arrival and seated promptly. The menu has a good selection and we both had the lamb yiros. This arrived very promptly, was a very generous serving and was absolutely, melt in the mouth, delicious. We ordered dessert, with all the options available for viewing in the refrigerated cabinet at the front. The chocolate kataifi and the honey trigono were both very nice.
The service was prompt, the wait staff friendly and the food fresh and delicious. If I were in Adelaide again I would definitely go back.

We finally visited The Greek on Halifax for my birthday celebration.
Booked a table for two on a Friday night without any hassle and enjoyed a warm position in the centre of the restaurant. Staff were friendly and knowledgable. Food was quick to be served and very tasty. A deconstructed yiros and a braised goat main were followed by dessert - leave room for the sweets - they are huge!
Pretty good value. It would be great to have more wine available by the glass rather than the bottle.

An old Haunt. The Greek is an old favourite that I realised I haven't ever reviewed here! Its been the venue for a number of dinners and lunches over the past few years - and a supplier of morning coffees!

I've always enjoyed their food immensely and our recent visit, the usually family of 4 plus 2 more adults) all would agree with me!. The most noticeable dish was a Seafood Platter shared between my wife and my eldest. Well, eaten mostly by my eldest actually. Starving 14 year old boys excepted the platter is meant to feed 2 but for more conservative eaters I'd say easily 3 people. The platters are not cheap (especially if its all eaten by one teenager) but they are excellent and divided over 2 or 3 diners not unreasonable for the quality - no non-descript pieces of mystery fish and all fresh!

Other dishes enjoyed where the Marinated Lamb Cutlets, Yiros (infinitely better than the fish and chip store version), Moussaka and a greek salad.

We didn't have dessert that evening but their coffee's are excellent.

Once again I'm more than happy to recommend this restaurant to anyone!

Feel ripped off. Dined here for a birthday celebration recently. While the service and food is of good quality the pricing is quite extreme! I ordered the souvlaki, which consisted of 12 prawns arranged on a small bed of rocket, cherry tomatoes and red onion. I felt like I could have whipped this up at home for a fraction of the cost, not really worth it sorry, if I go here again I'd probably order something different.

Great food and service, poor value for money. Went here with some colleagues from work. The decor was simple and refined - and the glass room we were in would be lovely in some summer once they opened it up to the warm air. We had to deal with watching the rain coming down!

The service provided was kind and attentive, and the food itself was excellent. We shared meat and seafood platters, together with some chips and feta cheese. It was very diverse with yiros and other meats, a variety of seafood (the squid being especially good), and the feta was some of the best I've had.

However it wasn't good value for money. The platters were $100-120 and I feel that they should have more realistically been $70-80. The cheese and chips, too, were similarly overpriced given their portion sizes.

In short, if you don't mind splashing the cash, you'll thoroughly enjoy this place without reservation - but if you are more money conscious, you can probably get just as good an experience elsewhere for less.

I've been to the greek about 5 times and each time the quality has been exceptional! I have noticed however that the meal sizes seems to get slightly smaller and smaller each time to the point where today when i ordered the "colossus" and it made me consider if it was worth the money anymore.

Amazing Greek food and perfect service and it is my favourite Greek restaurant by far.

They give you great confidence to take your family, friends or business associates and to be 100% sure that they will have an enjoyable dining experience, like yourself, every time.

Whilst I now live in Denver, Colorado, the 4 times a year that I am in Adelaide it is the restaurant that I look forward to the most to dine in.

The OLYMPIAN Meat platter and the THALASSINA Seafood platter are AWESOME.

Thank You again George, Fran and Mietta - exceptional as always.

Very nice!. Entree – Had the Houlumi wrapped in eggplat with a tomato sauce, it was nice. Wasnt to heavy and was just a perfect start to the dinner. I could have eaten a whole plate of just these! Simple & Delicious
Main – Mousaka & The Collousus, Mousaka was good but it was what you expected but a very big serving! Baked in its own bowl which is a nice touch, very nice.
Colousus was a treat, the lamb on the plate was just incredible. The sausage I liked but wasn’t that great i found it to be a bit salty. The Beef was also delicious. Even the rice was great!

Service – It was okay, nothing to rave about. They forgot our wine but then when i reminded them they apologized.

Great weekend breakfast if you don't mind the wait. Had the poached eggs and spinach on sourdough with hollandaise and it was par for the course. Tried the fruit with greek yoghurt and honey too and it was a nice accompaniment to the eggs. Weak coffee. Too long a wait (40 min) to get our feed. Another lady kept going on and on and on about her toast not arriving after 20 minutes, and no marmalade at that! The horror!!! But I don't mind waiting--it's a perfect Sunday morning in Adelaide, and there are worse things that I can complain about than my stomach grumbling a bit before the fantastic food arrives.

There's some very nice food at Greek On Halifax, but it's probably slightly overpriced for the quality you get. It's still very tasty Greek food though, and in a great setting - the building has a good atmosphere. My only complaint from my most recent visit is one that goes for a lot of restaurants these days, and that is that one of the waiting staff answered back when one of the colleagues I was dining with tried to order a bottle of wine, telling him "tell you what, I'll just go and take the orders on that (other) table and then come back for your order, ok?" and then walked off without waiting for an answer. That's not how it's done and a lot of Adelaide waiting staff need a lesson in what's appropriate and what's not.

Best greek food!. What can I say, The Greek is one of my absolute favourite restaurants after just one dinner there! Everything about this place was perfect, from the cute chalk-board special boards to the gorgeous setting - still in the city centre, but not right in the middle of the hustle and bustle. I ordered lamb chops on a bed of some grain that I don't remember - maybe quinoa?The flavours were just beautiful and the meat was cooked to perfection. This restaurant is my first suggestion any time we are planning to go out, can't wait to go back!

I'm not a huge fan of Greek food and having not eaten at all the Greek restaurants in Adelaide I'm not sure how The Greek stacks up against the competition but our party of four had an excellent time on a weekend night at this restaurant. We ate our way through the menu and the meat eaters and almost-vegetarians were satisfied with the quantities and the flavours. Would definitely go back.

Greek Goodness. I'm always up for Greek, so couldn't wait to give this restaurant a go. First impression was good - we were greeted by warm staff and the interior was cosy. I kept it simple and ordered the lamb souvlaki. The meal size was generous and meat tender. I also had skordalia (potato and garlic dip) with pita bread + roasted pumpkin, bean and feta salad on the side. All up, a most enjoyable night out.

Worth the wait!. We were a bit of an unorganised bunch, which resulted in us ordering at the same time as 10 other tables, and waiting half an hour for our food.

Luckily, we'd feasted on a quartet of dips and pita bread. The beetroot was delicious, and the tarama not-too-salty.

I ordered the char-grilled octopus. It. Was. Divine.

Not too big, but wonderful quality. Two skewers of succulent octopus, grilled to perfection. The accompanying salad worked well the with the salt and lemon flavours.

Will definitely go again!

Simply love the greek. Had another great meal at the Greek on Halifax this weekend. 4 guys and two platters - one seafood, one meat. good ammount of food and great flavours. I know the food is simple, but simple meals are sometimes the best.

had my favourite fish roe dip with some pita for entre - taramatsila. i know for a fact that they make all of their own dips fresh in the kitchen.

service was great from a smiling waitress.

make sure you try the kota hpitidi - the chilli fetta sauce is really tasty. if wine is your thing, they have a great list of South Australian wines

Cute little restaurant. Casual decor but great food. Had a very nice night here treating my mum to dinner on her first visit to Adelaide. Staff were friendly and casual but still attentive. Up there in terms of good authentic Greek food and flavored.

We went for the platters: seafood and meat and they were very good with the seafood platter being a standout (chargrilled morten bay bugs, octopus, etc). Service was very good and the cream kataifi was excellent! Well done to Greek on Halifax - a most pleasurable dining experience!

Best Greek in Adelaide. We made a meal of the traditional Greek meze dishes and dessert and apart from over-ordering (eyes bigger than my stomach) the meal was delicious.

Greek food tends to be simple, whereas I'm personally looking for complex tastes, so I'm not much of a fan of Greek food.

However, I've heard that it's ok to smash your plate on the ground if you don't like your food. :)

...cheesy top has a nice crisp, and the winy white sauce is stodgy and salty, in a good way. Part of what makes this taste good is probably its lack if vegetables. There's a bit of potato, and some slices of eggplant, but not a huge amount else. It's just salty white sauce, meat, and potato. I think the sprigs of lettuce are supposed to vector vegetable component here.

I think the name pretty much says it all. Located on Halifax Street in the middle of the CBD was this Greek restaurant. ​Beautiful settings outside with the big white umbrellas, or if you prefer, there are indoor sittings, or there is a private room capable to hold a function. There are plenty of parking spaces along Halifax Street. I have been here for breakfast, brunch and dinner, but this time I am mainly going to blog about the breakfast here.

Looking back at the menu, I can’t actually remember what I ordered. I have a feeling it may not be on their current menu. It was basically lamb and vegetables, but that was some damn tender lamb and some damn good vegetables. It tasted almost like a home cooked meal, but with a touch of fancy. Like if one of your parents was a chef, that’s how your home cooked meal would taste.

Things to be considered when catching up with friends on a cold FREEZING winter’s night. - fantastic (hot) food - warm atmosphere - easy parking - great company - a glass of red With the given brief, C booked us in for a small bite at the Greek on Halifax on Hutt Street with our intention of grabbing dessert after, so the hard task was to not over order which is a common occurrence with us!

This place is great! Atmosphere is amazing not too loud with great vibe and the staff are also really friendly. They know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Food is to die for, many Greek classics and some of the best seafood in the city, and for their prices it’s 100% worth it.

Excellent, highly recommended. The Seafood platter was wonderful, Morton Bay Bugs, Octopus, Prawns and part of the Calamari were grilled. Amazing piece of Snapper, so succulent. Dayley was the perfect host. Busy night, it was Valentines day and Greek on Halifax still shone brightly. Thank you so much for a special meal. xx

Really nice ambience. Love the traditional Greek touches to the decor. Prompt service. We decided to order several dishes and share the lot. My favourite was the zucchini croquettes. Yia Yia’s chips taste good! Everything was delicious. Will try different dishes next time we go. Spacious restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. Clean toilet facilities.

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
