Reviews
"The Greek salad was very good with festa cheese on the side as requested. The Souvlaki chicken sandwich not too bad, needs some hot sauce would be better. Service staff friendly & very helpful. Best to use cash to avoid surcharge for credit cards which is pretty standard practice in Victoria state. Note that debit card has a much lower surcharge that credit card; 0.8% instead of 1.5%. Weekend a surcharge of 10% applies. Many restaurants adds surcharge during Sundays & Public Holidays as staffing cost more during non-work days. August 9th, 2023 a Wednesday."
"On a busy weekend this place is packed, if that’s not your thing maybe come on a week day. Either way, the food in tasty! It’s not the best Greek in Melbourne but it certainly is a classic. We had the gyro lamb plate and the assorted of dips and bread, it was way to much for two people but in classic Greek style I enjoyed over indulging. The beer was a bit pricy but it’s popular so that’s what you get. All in all, it’s good. If you haven’t been here it’s a must."
"The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff create a welcoming environment. The menu is filled with delicious Greek dishes that are prepared with utmost care and attention to detail. The flavors are authentic and the portion sizes are generous. Whether you're craving souvlaki, moussaka, or baklava, Stalactites will not disappoint. It's a must-visit for anyone looking to indulge in delectable Greek cuisine in the heart of Melbourne."
"It’s shame they don’t take bookings for party under 4 , so we had to wait for nearly 30 min in line for getting a table . But was worth it , fresh food with great options . Saganaki was amazing , also had the most delicious fresh pita bread , and amazing dips . Definitely worth the hype , with great taste . Ambience is good , obviously decor is based on stalactites so definitely worth the eat ."
