I loved everything about this Greek restaurant. I got the lamb plate and it was delicious. It’s a great spot for groups and the staff are good fun. I will be coming back for a more intimate experience because I couldn’t fault my experience.
I have never tried a Greek food before, so this was my first time eating Greek food. The ambiance was nice and the staff was very friendly. The food was amazing too. The octopus was not really chewy and the lamb shoulder was tender and delicious.
I had a business dinner with a colleague from the UK at Medusa. I couldn’t take too many photos but managed to sneak a couple of my meals!
I had the stuffed zucchini flowers for my entree and the seafood pot for the main. Previous experience at Medusa had prepared me for servings that are generous!
The zucchini flowers were superb. Generous serving with three big zucchini flowers that were cooked to perfection.
The main was a very impressive looking seafood pot with a huge king prawn in the middle. There was a generous mix of other seafood like smaller prawns, fish, mussels and scallops. I was surprised that there wasn’t any squid in it though. It was served with two big pieces of toasted sourdough. It was very good overall if perhaps just a bit too tomato-ey.
Service was very good and we had a great corner table.
I think my overall rating would be a 4.5 but as I can only give whole numbers, I’ve pushed it up to a 5 as I prefer to round up.
Medusa Greek Taverna serves traditional Greek food with Mediterranean influences. The food served provided comfort to the soul with authentic flavours whether you are coming on a date or a large group. We were slightly under-dressed for the restaurant as it was actually nicer and fancier than we thought it would be. Due to our large group at ‘Medusa’, we ordered double of each dish but we ordered too much food (as always). The staff were very accommodating to us even though we were a tame group to begin with and food came out reasonably quickly.
It's amazing how restaurants in Sydney bring out the best in every cuisine. So with Medusa - superlative Greek food here!
Started of with Taramosalata - a really authentic fish roe dip. Thus is not usually available in Greek restaurants in Asia. Served with warm toasted pita, this was great.
Medusa Greek Salad was slso very good with oodles of feta cheese. Haven't seen this much feta served in a salad before. Simple salad but with feta and olive oil, it's divine!
Arni Souvlaki was good. The lamb chunks were crusted with herbs and it came with yummy tzatziki and perfect fries
I don’t generally eat much Greek food, but I was craving it the other day and figured what better place to catch up with a friend than at one of the more popular Greek restaurants in the city.
We were greeted by very friendly staff when we arrived, who made sure our water glasses were kept topped up the whole night. The food itself was just so delicious. I was in love with the Taramosalata that we got as the entree. It was just so packed with flavour and was so addictive! We got the Swordfish, the Meat Mousaka and the Chicken Souvlaki for the mains, and each dish was so delicious and filling.
The only downside is that it is a bit expensive. The mains are all a good size which is nice, but for a full meal you are looking at around $40-$50 per person. However, the experience that we had was fantastic, I can’t wait to go back and try more of their food!

Very Delicious and Relaxing
I visited this restaurant for Valentines Day in Sydney. The service was amazing and the staff were very welcoming.
Our waiter was very very nice and kind. He was easy to talk to and he had a lot of knowledge about the menu. The people sitting behind us had too many questions and I can hear his answers and he was more than happy answer all their questions.
Food... my oh my, it was amazing and delicious.
For Entrée we had Tzatziki dip with warm bread which cost $8. Very decent for an entrée and a restaurant in the city. The entrée was so delicious, we could have had it for mains.
I had the Arni Souvlaki which was for $32. Absolutely delicious. I love my souvlaki's and man this was delicious. Sadly I was dieting though I would have loved to order seconds.
My fiancé had the lamb Mousaka which was for $26. My fiancé loved her meal. I had to taste it offcourse and it was delicious. well cooked and had the right amount of flavours.
To finish of the night we had coffee.
I highly recommend this restaurant for families, romantic dates and even a catch up with friends. This restaurants seems like a family owned restaurant as they are all welcoming just like the Greek culture.
Highly Recommended. Will visit again and again
Amazing food, have been here twice. Loved the food and it's desserts. Good decor, pretty easy to spot/ find. It's usually full, so you'll have to make an appointment. Worth a try.
Compliments to Bill the chef...went here with a group of six for Saturday night dinner and would have to say that every dish was superb! Starters included the fava, haloumi but the standouts were the zucchini flowers and prawn saganaki! The rocket salad was also perfectly dressed. My main was the baby snapper...sublime simplicity. Others had, which I tried a little and loved was the veal medallions, beef stifatho, wrapped John Dory and the seafood spaghetti looked enormous. We also shared the house specialty of slow cooked lamb with peas and watercress dressing which was also fantastic. My only issue was we didn’t leave any room for dessert, but that’s okay, we’ll be definitely back for that!
Can't go wrong with the food here, pita and dips are heavenly and portion sizes are generous. Service is good and conveniently located in the heart of the CBD. Their restaurant Medusa is also delicious!
Found my new favourite Greek Restaurant. Cannot fault anything. The experience was everything you want when out dining. Atmosphere, fabulous selection on the menu with a good choice of wines. The octopus and eggplant are still fresh in my mind a week after we dined there. Looking forward to going back.
Descent quality Greek food cuisine and reasonable price comparing to its location and ambience. During my visit COVID-19 safety measures were in place and was clean restaurant. Customer service was very mixed, the lady at the reception was lovely and very welcoming however, the male Asian appearance waitress was not so welcoming and nice. Overall is ok restaurant in the middle of the busy city location for a Greek cuisine. Price and Customer service can be improved for sure.
Delicious Greek food in a lovely decored restaurant.
I had the Chicken souvlaki with chips, salad and flat bread. It is a huge serving, I couldn't finish it all and I am a big Eater.
Just down the road from QVB building.
We found this restaurant from google review and really glad we choose it. The atmosphere is very good, same for the food we had. Definitely will recommend to my friends and family. Will go back and try other dish later.
6 stars if I could - I'm Greek and grew up with Greek food and its perfect - very authentic, food always top quality, atmosphere in spades, the owners walk around and talk to everyone - that kind of place. Been coming here for years so very consistent
Gotta be honest Greek food isn't my favourite cuisine but to an untrained palate these guys/gals do it well. The taramasalata was so good. Breads were fresh and tasty. Lamb melted on your fork. Chicken nicely cooked, with some full egg mayo that completely blew us away Service was good. Attentive but not overwhelming. Didn't oversell. Portions were just the right size for a large group (8 people) with a little left over. Decor doesn't astound but doesn't offend either. Somehow...felt like a Grecian oasis on a city corner. If Greek food is your thing, give it a go
Been to this restaurant a couple of times now. Wonderful atmosphere, very friendly and helpful staff. The food is plentiful and tastes great.
You can tell the owner has a lot of pride in his restaurant and makes sure everyone has a lovely time there..
Highly recommended
