Absolutely packed to the brim, Hellenic Republic is bouncing back since the news about Brunswick. The food, though small serves, is divine and hands down the best lamb I’ve ever had. Also, George was our waiter and bought food to our table. Cypriot Salad and Cauliflower stood out along with Chicken off the spit. Tarama dip here is also on point, hitting the high flavour notes. Will come back again.
Came by for lunch and when asked, was able to do the Feed Me meal which consisted of 6 dishes as well as a glass of wine for $35.
It started with Prosseco, followed by bread, hummus and olives. I generally don't eat olives as they are usually too salty for me but these were quite nice, aside from the large ones. The zucchini chips were amazing, crispy and tasty. This was followed with roast chicken served with feta on chips and a Cypriot grain salad, all of which were delicious. The chicken with the grain salad was quite tasty, and the chips on top of that made a really filling meal.
I was there quite early so was able to get a table without a reservation. The service was really friendly and it was fairly easy to get the attention of someone if you needed it, even when busy. Aside from their menu, there were also other options that were on the wall.
It was a really filling and delicious lunch.
Friendly and professional service. Great portion of meal. Taste great. Our favourite family restaurant!!!
Love how the staff engaged us as we entered. The fact that George C was in the kitchen mentoring the kitchen staff through service just shows his attention to great food and service. He also came out of the kitchen to engage with guests and even did the honors of serving my Soufflé. Sorry no pictures, was too busy enjoying myself with the GREAT food and service.
Food is so good, such a good greek place to go grab food, very nice to go with a group of people, had space to fit people, does get a bit busy so you might have book
Absolute favourite restaurant! The lamb! The dips! The saganaki! All delicious and the staff are just so lovely!
Amazing Greek Food FULL STOP 😍 I wanted to try this place for ages because I saw it on 9s Postcards and it did not disappoint. The meat honestly just melts in your mouth. Not your everyday souvlaki place thats for sure... awesome food, service and decor 🙈
Wow, what a great place! Didn't expect the food to be so good and the service was exceptional. Our waiter was brilliant. My wife is a walking test tube, dietary encyclopedia. He was able to answer all our questions and recommend exactly what she could and couldn't eat. It was not as restricted as we found in other places. Wines were great and he even convinced us to try some Greek wine, a real surprise, as my last trip to Greece we didn't really like the wine. My red was excellent and the wife had a nice dry white from greece. Definitely our new fav place in Brighton.
Awesome food, service and ambience will be back! The seafood is to die for. Whole Lamb shoulder amaaazing. First time I've tried Greek wine and boy was it great. Almost as good as Hungarian wine!
Compliment to the chef. Menu looks simple - was a bit puseld by the few main choices- but turned out to be great. The waiting staff was helpful and recommended sharing -and I should have listened. Portions are good sized and filling. Would go again. Feed 2 generously under $100 without drinks.

It’s useful to book here! It’s very busy and popular. The food was delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. We left full and happy and I’m sure we’ll be back.
Good food. Reasonable prices. Garlic pita bread with sea salt and olive oil is yum. Would like a bit of chillie and spice in the food. But all in all, love the food and the atmosphere. Super friendly staff
After visiting Gazi in the city, we were keen to try George Calombaris’ Hellenic Republic.
Excellent experience with amazing Greek food in a cosy atmospheric seating.
We visited on a weekday night and the place was packed full. Service was excellent. Every dish was delicious but can highly recommend the Patzari (roast beetroot) and the Kotopoulo (Chicken from the spit). Beautiful taramasalata too.
Can’t wait to return for more.
Lovely food! Not memorable though.. maybe expected too much! Excellent service though! Cannot fault it! Lovely people!
It’s pretty hard to fault this place. The atmosphere is lively, the staff are attentive and friendly and will take time to ensure you are comfortable. The food is like it just came out of your mums kitchen. We left feeling full & nourished, the lamb shoulder could’ve been carved with a spoon and was a real highlight
We had the banquet which did not disappoint. We will be back soon
Absolutely delicious food, everything was exceptional including the service, wished I lived nearby so I could go back again easily!
