Greek Restaurants in Gold Coast

Gold Coast might be famous for sun and surf, but if you’re craving a break from fish and chips, some solid Greek options are closer than you think.

Places like Two Sisters Greek Taverna in Mermaid Beach offer more than just the usual fare , think slow-cooked lamb kleftiko and flaky spanakopita that reminds you of a Sunday lunch at your Greek aunty’s house. It’s informal, comforting food that doesn’t pretend to be fancy. Also, for takeaway or casual eats, the Greek on Ferry in Southport nails authentic souvlaki and has one of the best dakos salads on the coast.

If you find yourself in Broadbeach, pop into The Greek Street Food for strong coffee and fresh loukoumades that have a way of disappearing too quickly. Tip: If you go on a weeknight, it’s much quieter and you can actually chat with the owners, who are always happy to give cooking tips or recommend a dish not on the menu. My personal go-to? The grilled octopus, if you feel adventurous. Gold Coast’s Greek spots aren’t flashy but they’re perfect when you want dependable, flavourful food with a side of good vibes.
