Reviews Two Brothers Mediterranean

This is a fine restaurant, a bit pricey, but almost worth it, with high quality food, (and lots of it),  efficient and professional service and a nice venue with easy, free basement parking at the little Garden Piazza centre in Terminus Street, Castle Hill.  

Four of us dined on a busy Sat night in Nov. We ordered four Brothers Banquets at $50 each, and were impressed with the variety and the quantity of food. Dish and after dish was swiftly delivered to the table, starting with salads, dips, dolmades and hot Leb bread, then onto the lamb, beef and chicken skewers and sausages, and ending with delicious desserts and my fav strong Turkish coffee. Everything was fresh and tasty, there wasn’t one dish that disappointed. There was so much food that we couldn’t finish it all, but the wait staff kindly helped us to put the leftovers into a couple of plastic containers, which we took home and enjoyed for dinner the next night.

There were numerous wait staff on duty, all female, of course, and all neatly turned out in smart black uniforms. They were efficient, friendly and helpful. There was virtually no waiting time between dishes. These guys didn’t miss a beat the whole evening and everything ran smoothly from start to finish: That’s just the way I like it.

We ended up paying $253 for the four of us, and that included a few rounds of drinks, corkage and the four banquets. And in a nice touch to round off the evening, the maitre d penned a hand-written note at the back of our receipt, thanking us for our custom, and saying what a pleasure it was to host us at his restaurant. Haven’t seen that before, but it was welcome.

The only downside to all this positivity, and something that I did find a tad annoying, was that on the same night that we dined, the restaurant was hosting a hens night party, which occupied the entire inside of the place, leaving the non-hens-nighters to dine in the courtyard. Not that that bothered us, and it was quite pleasant sitting outside, under cover; it was just that the noise and all the activity emanating from inside didn’t make for a relaxing evening. I think, in fairness, the brothers should have closed the restaurant to the public for that night and given it over completely to the hens party.

There are male and female toilets inside the restaurant and they are clean and well stocked, except I struggled to get to them, with so many people packed inside, mostly standing around or dancing. 

This is an expensive restaurant, and if I did go again I would check that there were no events scheduled on the same night. But in fairness, I should say that even the party didn’t detract from the attentive and fast service and I have to hand it to these guys, because the food is outstanding and the quantities are huge.

Underneath the little centre is a car park with oodles of spaces for you to park in.

Great place, definitely coming back. Savio and Louis were very helpful. Would recommend you give these guys a go!

The place served ok food. The only reason they got bumped from 3 stars to 4 stars coz the staff were lovely and was happy to accommodate all the requests. The portion sizes were too small for the price that was charged. They charged us extra for the dips/sauces which most middle Easter restaurants give for free. The desserts at the end werr very average tasting the guy said the portion sizes were way bigger but jut got a small plate. For the price toy would expect it to be just a bit bigger atleast.

Excellent food and service. Extensive menu. Staff are friendly and attentive as are the owners. Overall a great experience. We really enjoyed being able to share our meal. Portion sizes are generous and prices reasonable. This restaurant was high recommended to me and I in turn recommend it as a must after a wonderful evening. This is a family owned and operated business and we really felt as though we were welcomed into someone’s home with the two brothers and their sister each taking the time to have a chat and laugh with us. Really a positive, fun atmosphere. Already planning to return with more friends.

This place has a very warm and homely feeling to it. Everyone is polite and welcoming. Would definitely recommend the Two Brothers platter which allows you to try everything. The portions are huge. Would suggest sharing a main. Parking is available in the building downstairs.
