Review Elia Greek Island Taverna - Gold Coast

Loved it here, food was amaze, we had dips (taramosalata, eggplant, tirokafteri) legit the best dips I've had. Ever. Calamari was good, octopus was nice, souvlakia were tender, salad was spot on, haloumi was cooked perfectly, the wait staff were also lovely. Good experience all around.

Service, food and view all adds up to a lovely dining experience. All the meat was flavourful and tender. My favourite dish was the lamb - magnificent! We each enjoyed the $65 set menu for two, plus charcoal octopus and 2 glasses of wine for $168 it was a delightful experience, reminiscent of our Greek travels.

So impressed with this hidden gem. It’s tucked away around the side of Marina Mirage (ground level) overlooking the Versace and the marina. The food, service and setting are excellent. Good menu with excellent choices - must go back to try more. Lovely lunch specials. Prices are very good with indoor and outdoor seating (air conditioning inside). Great for singles, couples or groups (any size). The decor is very Greek Islands with the blue tables and chairs and the potted olive trees. Gorgeous boardwalk out front adding to the already wonderful view but also perfect for a stroll before or after dining. Disabled access and plenty of underground parking. Perfect spot for waterfront dining. Will be back - for sure!

Enjoyable dining experience during our holiday in Australia. We didn't have a reservation, despite that got a table quickly and served by smiling staff. The slow cooked Lamb so devine, just melt in your mouth. Generous servings, really good quality, hand made dips and starters. Just lovely to eat there.

The entree's were great... 8/10 However, it took 50 minutes for the mains to be delivered. The waiter also failed to mention that they had run out of scallops. So it was a surprise when a singular prawn was mounted upon the meal, a warning would be nice next time. The main meals were sporadic in temperature some parts were hot some parts were cold. Majority of the seafood was over cooked. As the final cherry on top it was $40 for 3 prawn skewers. The place was promising on a shallow level but upon a closer inspection I concluded that it failed to meet my expectations.

Scrumptious. Had a few different dips with pita bread plus 3 mains. Kids & i loved it. Bottle of NZ sav blanc at a reasonable price too. Great quality with quantity. Definitely a must visit for my family. Looking forward to going through the menu slowly. Overall very reasonable.

We had a lovely greek experience at Elia! Admitted it was a little crazy being NYE night! They put on Dancing and greek music loud and pumping! Was a very good time had by all! Roughly 80-100 people laughing and enjoying the food and atmosphere! Waiters running left and right drinks and food pumping out the kitchen hour after hour ! Food was fresh and delicious and we were more than happy with it! Many thanks to the staff who looked after us on the night! Yassou👍

Perfect for large groups or big family gatherings. Service was super fast and friendly. Wonderful outlook over the marinas especially sunset. Dips were really tasty just make sure you ask for more bread.
