Yots Greek Taverna
With a prime deck overlooking the marina, Yots serves up classic Greek and Mediterranean fare from saganaki and souvlaki to moussaka and spanakopita, along with barramundi and prawn dishes. Try the Greco barramundi served on spinach with baked lemon potatoes and a caper sauce. There's a cheaper lunch menu, too, and a wine list travelling from WA to France.

Press Club
Melbourne’s Mod-Greek scene is thriving, and George Calombaris’ grand city space gives it the glamour it deserves. There’s no fusion fussing, but rather a respect for the basics and a creative, playful sensibility. Think dolmades stuffed with roast quail, salmon cooked slowly in tzatziki and served with almond skordalia, or the ‘Santorini breakfast’ dessert (honey sorbet, yoghurt jelly and walnut biscuit). The separate bar area has a wonderful snacks menu that gives you a sense of the food without blowing the budget. Bookings required.

Tom & Mary's Greek Taverna
This busy Greek diner does everything from a superb moussaka to yiros, seafood, Greek salads and pastas with Hellenic zing. Sit back with a cold Coopers or retsina as the red sun sets on another dusty day in Coober Pedy.

White Blue

Zucca Greek Mezze
Spartan linen, marina views, super service and a contemporary menu of tapas-style meze plates − you wouldn't find anything this classy on Santorini. The grilled scallops with Persian fetta and salty pistachio crumble are sublime.

Little Press & Cellar
It may not be as large as the Press Club next door, but this 'little press' gives you a taste of George Calombaris' style at a relatively bargain price. Consider its weekday express lunch menu, which fires off three Greek dishes for $34, but don't miss the 'little snack' of signature taramosalata with hot chips ($13.50).

Kafe Meze
This indoor-outdoor Greek restaurant delivers fresh flavours and tastes of the Mediterranean. Tapas-style is a good way to sample a range of dishes, like grilled haloumi, marinated octopus, calamari and tzatziki with pita bread.

Hellenic Republic
The Iron Bark grill at George Calombaris's northern outpost works overtime grilling up pitta, king prawns, local calamari and snapper, and luscious lamb. It's a northern 'burbs version of Calombaris's Little Press & Cellar. Follow Lygon St north from Carlton – it's in East Brunswick.

Demitri's Feast
Warning: don't even attempt to get a seat here on a weekend; aim for a quiet weekday when you'll have time and space to fully immerse yourself in lunches like a calamari salad with ouzo aioli. Swan St runs parallel to Bridge Rd – follow Brunton Ave from the CBD.
