“ The best Greek/Indian food in Nanaimo. Service was amazing best was the price very reasonable. If have not gone you are missing out ”
“ Amazing food! This is our first time and our lovely server recommended Greek Platter for 2 which is a combo of lamb and chicken souvlaki, Greek salad, hummus, pita bread, spanakopita, roasted potatoes and rice. The chef was kind enough to give us complimentary tiramisu. Everything was good and everyone was very welcoming ”
“ We were three visiting Nanaimo for the first time and hit this place just based its rating. Everything was awesome. We ordered two different veals, mango and mushroom, plus one roasted lamb. We all tried others’, but we were happy enough with our meal not to share it. The staff are also friendly and suggested us a few places to visit which all were awesome. ”
“ Our family had a wonderful experience at this restaurant last weekend. Despite the many positive reviews, we were pleasantly surprised that it truly lived up to the hype. They accommodated our same-day reservation, and the waiting time was reasonable compared to other places. Most importantly, the food was excellent. As we were leaving, a thoughtful waiter noticed it was my mom’s birthday and brought her a complimentary piece of cake. A lovely touch to end a great meal. ”
“ Bobby is the owner and he’s always so wonderful! Paige was my server today wow she was so kind and so beautiful inside and out, it’s so nice to be treated with such respect after coming here all these years. My favourite is the chicken curry and it was even better than ever today. Thank you for the exceptional food and service as always!!!! ”
“ We had an amazing meal. We picked up dinner for 6 of us for our daughter's birthday. The food was ample and absolutely delicious. Food came out on time and hot. Thank you for a wonderful experience. We will return. ”
“ Both the food and the staff were exceptionally good. The food was scrumptious with generous portions and every bite being extremely flavourful. We ordered the saganaki which is the best I’ve ever had from anywhere, Greek salad seasoned and dressed to perfection, shrimp scampi with penne Alfredo this was a huge mouth watering portion and lastly the chicken souvlaki for my ex. Who doesn’t really care for food but really enjoyed this meal. Thank you so much for hosting us, it was very nice to see the chef coming out and checking on his guests. It made us feel very welcomed. - thank you for such a wonderful experience ”
“ My husband caught the eye of the restaurant from the car when we were out deciding on where to eat, just the short menu outside of the restaurant was mouth-watering, inside looking at all of the food options to choose from had us both almost stuck for choice but we both knew what we wanted, and we were not disappointed, the food is sublime, my husband had a lamb curry and ordered it spicy hot, my choice was the roast lamb, the portions were filling and very satisfying. The staff are quick with bringing orders and friendly. The place is decorated in Renaissance and pictures of Greece, with statuettes and ornamental pillars, with other little Greek touches to add to the feel of the place, really cozy and relaxed. We will go again. The owner saw that we liked the place and gave us a free cheesecake. We both highly recommend it here. ”
