Medusa Greek Taverna in the Sydney City Central Business District is an awesome restaurant to enjoy some traditional Greek food. Medusa Greek Taverna has been serving up Greek food for over 40 years and still going strong. A very popular city restaurant, very busy at lunch times as well as at dinner time.

I’ve been into Medusa twice. First time was a solo mission to try their food. I had their classic chicken souvlaki plate which comes with a large chicken souvlaki skewer (the chicken pieces are massive), served with chips, salad and pita bread. This is a big meal! I am a big eater and I couldn’t finish it. Very generous servings!

I recently went back for a team lunch and went for their awesome Lunch special set meal which is only $39 per person only available weekdays. This was a massive feast, with a great selection of different Greek foods.

First up came the entree platter which comes with Taramosalata, tzatziki, halloumi, country style sausages, dolmades, lima beans with pita. They also served up a plate of calamari which was delicious (sorry no pic of the calamari….i forgot…too busy filling my mouth).

The food kept up coming with an amazing Greek salad topped with a massive slab of feta cheese which just crumbled apart.

Then the main meals came out with a massive slab of NSW New England roast lamb shoulder with very tasty lemon potatoes, peas and jus lié  There was also a vegetarian dish of Baby eggplants filled with aromatic blend of herbs, onions, garlic, tomato served on char fennel – again no pic….too busy eating the lamb!

Another main meal was the Chicken Souvlaki which I had previously but was just as delicious. The herbs and spices the chicken is cooked in are spot on delicious.

At the end of the meal they served a small plate of delicious Greek Loukoumia (greek rose delights) – similar to Turkish Delight but I am sure the Greeks invented this first!

This is an awesome, must try restaurant. The food is fantastic, the service was excellent, with the owner of the restaurant personally checking on our table to make sure everything was as expected.

The decor in the restaurant is your typical Greek scenery with what I imagine pictures of the Greek islands. 10/10 for this restaurant. I look forward to another Greek feast here!
