Had a very relaxing & enjoyable lunch with my family. Food, service and atmosphere was excellent. Worth a visit.
Nice food good service
Enjoy the beautiful environment
In Short: Georges Mediterranean Bar and Grill located in King St Wharf is your destination for a Greek cuisine experience. Try a mezze with kataifi mastica cream with fresh fig and candied pistachios and wash it down with a cocktail and you will depart feeling very satisfied. We have had the opportunity to dine at a number of quality Italian restaurants over the past 18 months. Restaurants like Cucinetta and Entrata quickly spring to mind. Now, it is time to sample that other great ancient Mediterranean cuisine that is Greek cuisine. It was our first visit to Georges Mediterranean Bar and Grill at King St Wharf, and only our second Greek meal of the year.
Georges Mediterranean Bar & Grill brings both the ambience and flavours of al fresco Greek dining to Sydney’s Darling Harbour. Bag yourself an armchair overlooking the water and wile away a few hours people-watching and enjoying some of the finest Hellenic food that the city has to offer.
Georges Mediterranean Bar and Grill transforms from a dinner destination to a cafe in the morning. We came for the breakfast menu on a Sunday and got to try what King Street Wharf offers for the early risers.
Georges Mediterranean Bar and Grill is located on the beautiful King Street Wharf with plenty of outdoor seating options; we enjoyed the afternoon watching the waves and relaxing in their comfortable seats. Georges Mediterranean offers great great Greek food from slow-cooked meat to fresh seafood and plenty of starter and mezze options. We tried a couple items from the starter and mezze as well as main menu; lamb souvlaki, king prawns, deep fried squid, beef kefta and melitzanosalata.
We ordered a bunch of starters like the garlic bread, prawns, the filo pastry with spinach and feta etc. A lot of bottles of wine and cocktails and some straight drinks.
The vibe was fantastic, the service very polite and patient. However the food was just all-right.
Friendly staff, obviously a prime location and decent food. It's been a few weeks since I was here so I can't give a detailed review, but I can at least recommend it based on these things :)

So visited this restaurant again after many years.
The service was very professional and friendly. The waiters were prompt to take orders and bring the food. Atmosphere was terrific and did not have any issues.
Now the food.... Man oh Man. Still the same as my previous review. Nothing exciting...We ordered the Seafood Platter for two which was $75. I love my platters and often splurge on a platter every now and then. I was so very disappointed when I go this. The platter was not for two more like for 1.5 persons. The salmon had a very oily residue, the Octopus was Chewy and the Calamari, cold and was like eating a elastic / rubber band.
The hot chips were nice but I though it was a platter for two..... The quantity of the hot chips is what a mother would feed her baby.
The Salad!!! Is the chef joking???? really? the chef needs to be taught or maybe shown TWO adults. My wife had the salad which was finished in about 4 bites. Literally!!!
If you are going to have a restaurant at a premium, please hire a premium chef. I understand I only paid $75 for the platter and perhaps for $75 that is all you get but at least make the quality of the food worth $75. I often pay upwards of $125 and a few times $175 for a platter for two and the quality has been spot on perfect. People would be happy to pay that much if they know the experience of dining at the restaurant would be a good memorable experience.
Took me a few years to return to this restaurant..... hmmmmm would I go back after a few years?????

Nothing you can't make on your own.....
We visited this restaurant as a friends catch up. The layout and atmosphere was great, the service was good and the waiters were friendly.
The food..... Well we had souvlaki and wow.... It was disappointing. I've had souvlaki plates at non greek restaurants and it tasted better.
Perhaps it might have been the meal we chose that made me give this a average ratings.... I did see a lot of other families enjoying themselves.
Went here for dinner while we were visiting Sydney. Just snuck in at the end of happy hour for a mojito. It wasn't sweet at all and wasn't pleasant. We had the mezze banquet for 2. The food kept coming and it was amazing. The squid was tender and lovely. It was all very enjoyable. The service was friendly and pretty prompt.
Great restaurant in king street wharf. The restaurant is relaxing and open with very attentive customer service. I highly recommend the Greek style lamb and the lamb ribs.
George's Mediterranean Bar and Grill is a greek restaurant situated on the waterfront of King St Wharf Darling Harbour. We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday. The restaurant has a large alfresco dining area and also has indoor seating. We were greeted by the friendly waitstaff who provided us with great service throughout the meal. They were attentive without being OTT; They ensured our water glass was filled, also checking to see how we were going with the meal and if we needed anything.
The drinks menu was varied with cocktails, a range of wines including wines of Greek origin. There were also a number of beers to choose from, with a number of Greek beers listed. They also had a nice selection of spirits including some good whisky.
As we were at a Greek restaurant I was looking foward to eating some lamb, as the Greeks know how to cook their lamb. Our meal choice was made easier with a lamb set menu option for $45pp. The set menu came with a number of delicious starters including the haloumi with watermelon and mint, tender salt and pepper squid and and some nice creamy taramasalata as well as a basket of bread to help you mop it up.
The lamb was fall off the bone with very nice garlic and lemon flavour and was served with roast potatoes. This also came with a side of fresh greek salad. The set menu was great value, so much food.
This restaurant is in a great location and they serve quality Greek food.
We were stressing to find a booking on a very busy Saturday night. We called the restaurant and from the time Michael answered the phone to our greeting when we arrived the service was outstanding. Incredibly friendly and full of energy. The food was delicious. We were attended to promptly. Our group chose the grilled lamb set menu, the seafood for two and dishes off the menu. We were given great suggestions for wine and cocktails. The atmosphere was fun and welcoming.
A beautiful location, with delicious food and fantastic service.
We ordered the mezze banquet which was affordable, with generous portion sizes, along with 1/2 a dozen oysters.
The best Sydney restaurant!
Umut is a treasure, be sure to treat him well, as he made our experience a great one. Give the handsome man a promotion, even after his first day! That’s how good he made our night. Anyway, the food is well done, and wines are delicious. Great night all round!
Had work Christmas party here and we went with the set menu. There was were 4 different types of entree and quite filling. Mains were kingfish, lamb shoulder and pot prawns. Kingfish was delicious and the lamb shoulder looked really tender. I had the baklava which was different from what I had before and not as syrupy, a but dry and the pudding with granite better as per others. Plenty of seating but booking is recommended.
Food and service was pretty good. They were out of octopus, but we did get there late. Only detriment really are the exorbitant tourist prices, but that is par for the course in this area.
Delicious food is offered at Georges. Great service, very friendly staff. Thanks for the experience.
Had the lamb shoulder. Amazing, was actually lamb, not a mature sheep cut. Extremely well cooked. Made be want to go to Greece to find more.
Wait staff were amazing. Prompt, friendly, knowledgeable of the menu and did all sorts of cool things with the final bill for a bunch of corporate credit card carrying types who needed to split the bill. Highly highly recommended and will return when back in Sydney Town.
