Medusa Greek Taverna - Sydney

Excellent Greek cuisineThe owner, Peter, really cares about his customers' dining experience.

Ok food but very attentive service and nice ambiance Not too loud but loud enough to feel lively.

The family took me here for my Birthday dinner (don't ask Old is all the answer you will get).

Greek food is one of my personal favorite cuisines, so imagine my excitement when i was about to start dining in Medusa! Place looks great and service was decent. The food choices on the menu got me all drooling. We got the pita bread and was happy with it. The calamari arrived and was too soggy and oily. The greek salad arrived and my my - this is the saltiest food I've ever tasted. I stopped eating it and our Yemista arrived. And oh my, it was as salty and the potatoes too. We were glad one of our orders didn't get recorded (i think the waiter forgot about it), so our tongues are spared from more salt torture. I'm disappointed :( oh well, time to look for other greek taverns that will satisfy my cravings!

If you were looking for the finest Greek restaurant in Sydney, look no further than Medusa Greek Taverna. Named after the mythical Greek monster, the taverna was brightly decorated with murals of the monster (ouch!) and an inviting glass counter. One of the highlights of the taverna must be the freshly prepared pita and fish roe dips. The creamy and appetizing dips are perfect complements of the pita bread. While fine dining restaurants do occasionally get lazy and serves me cold and hard sourdoughs, the taverna serves some amazing toasted or warmed bread/pita. The moussaka is also delicious. The potato-layered dish includes ground meat and a top layer of milk-based sauce thickened with egg. The ground meat is a little dry and coarse but that did not spoil the flavour and texture of the dish.
