After a long hot day we were hungry for something cold. This restaurant made the best roast and salad sandwich at a very reasonable price. Very friendly service - this is the place to ho in Ballarat. They even played some Leonard Cohan music for ne :-)

I’ve dined here many times. Mostly for week day lunches. I have never been disappointed. Excellent food, fresh and cooked beautifully. Greek people I know say it’s wonderful traditional Greek food. I’m no expert on that, I just know it’s an excellent place for a quiet lunch, with wonderful food and service. I highly recommend.

Fried flat head tails were divine and moussaka was perfect. Classic menu, everything is fresh. Don't worry if there's no banana fritter on the menu, just be nice to the staff. Comfortable high chairs and old school mirrors along dining tables kept our toddler happy. Anyone complaining about this place in the reviews doesn't understand good food.
