Food here was good. Service was attentive and friendly.
They accommodated us with seating arrangements that we requested.

This is the most DISGUSTING restaurant. We made a booking for the world cup a week in advance. Called on Wednesday to confirm the booking was still there and they agree.

We arrive and the mangers blatantly laugh in our face and say that the table is already booked sorry. There must have been 4 other groups of people that arrived with the same issue.

If you going to take bookings as a restaurant atleast do it properly and have decent managers that dont laugh in your face, obviously they dont care they still get paid at the end of the day

Dont waste your money and plan to go to this restaurant! I can think of 100 other restaurants that can provide better service

Just no.

The food is alright. It's nothing to speak home about. It's nothing compared to Orexi's Greek food.

The value for money is horrendous. Just no.

I would rather drive 40km to an Orexi's Greek restaurant than sit here. It would come out cheaper to drive and the food tastes better.

There is no reason to price average tasting food like this. Especially when waiters can't listen to orders correctly, or try bring you the most expensive shots when you ask for tequila (you ask the customer which tequila they want, if there is a selection)

Today we decided to venture out to Melrose Arch for lunch. We booked a table at Mezepoli Restaurant. What a great experience. The food was delicious & the service was excellent! Our Waitress Surprise was very pleasant & efficient!
We started with cocktails. I had the Aegean Breeze & Greg had the Mediterranean Highball followed by a bottle of La Motte Sauvignon Blanc which we had with our meal.
As for the food, it is tapas style so we decided to start with a rocket & spinach salad, pita bread & a peppers & aubergine dip. We then chose the beef fillet saute, artichokes, pickled octopus & grilled feta as our "main" course.
The decor is clean, cool & minimalist.
We will definitely be back. Such an extensive menu, so many more dishes to try.

Booked a table 3 days prior for my birthday, arrived they told us theirs no booking for me with so much attitude I then showed the WhatsApp messages with the confirmation they then all of a sudden found the booking, with no apologies for being mistaken, The waitress was so rude all night her attitude was horrifying we had to re order multiple times because she kept forgotting to bring what we asked, The Tzaziki dip was also off it was sour. For what I paid and the experience I won’t be going back. Thank goodness for good company to make it better.

Service outstanding, food outstanding. That’s all you can ask for when going out. Good service all round.

Outstanding meal absolutely destroyed by 13 year old school party of st Mary's kids. Management beyond useless. Four tables walked out. Shocking. Noise beyond comprehension. Disgusting

Part of the Plaka franchise group. Mezes very good, meat dishes more South African than Greek. Greek salad good. Chips of the fast food type, too much salt and seasoning. Prices on the high end. Service good but kitchen slow.

Food good but waiter didn't give good service, never check if all was OK and what ordered wasn't complete

Incredibly poor service. After being ignored and dismissed we had to approach a waiter to ask for a table for 2 and were told very abruptly that there was nothing available - there were PLENTY of tables available and large groups without reservations were being seated before us. We were not even given an estimated waiting time.

Unbelievable that this popular restaurant didn’t have so many items on their menu, and this was a celebration dinner for a family of 5. Will not dine here again

Drinks are very expensive. R85 for a gin mojita with lime. Ridiculous! It was more ice than drink.

We had a family lunch there and it's safe to say no one was disappointed. The format of many small dishes encourages sharing and tasting new things and the wide variety means everyone can find something to eat. It's outdoors within the precinct, so it feels safe.

Great place to come for a dinner or lunch. We came for a dinner, but made a reservation ahead of time. Service was amazing and we were always attended to.

Cocktail selection is good with some signature items. Really enjoyed them.
Food has a great selection too. Definitely recommend the vegetarian and seafood meze's.

What I really liked is how modern the restaurant is. Waiters and waitresses take your order on tablets and they do it efficiently.
