About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for outdoor dining
Since 1994, Caffé Greco has been more than a restaurant, it has been a Melbourne icon, a place where laughter lingers over long lunches, where friendships are toasted, and where every visit feels like coming home.

Now reimagined in the heart of Oakleigh, Greco enters a new era, one that celebrates the contemporary spirit of Greek cuisine. Our menu captures the sun-kissed flavours of the Mediterranean, showcasing the freshest local seafood, premium meats from the grill, and our signature Galaktoboureko, lovingly crafted each day.

Step inside a space of marble and gold, bathed in soft, inviting light, a blend of elegance and warmth that reflects the true heart of Greek hospitality. From morning coffee and something sweet, to mezze and cocktails at dusk, or a refined dinner shared with family and friends.

Groups of 15 or more? We also offer à la carte and sharing options, simply contact us at info@caffegrecooakleigh.com

    Fantastic service! Our waiter was friendly, approachable and so easy to talk to. He took the time to explain the menu and made excellent food recommendations. His knowledge, warmth and genuine hospitality made our dining experience even more enjoyable. He is a real asset to the restaurant!

    The place is gorgeous and the service was impeccable. The food however was good but not great. The meat (chicken and lamb) was a little to charred and dry. When you are competing with so many other Greek restaurants your gyros needs to be on point. However, in saying that the serving size was generous and the chips were crisp and fluffy on the inside.

    What a lovely venue, food and dining experience. We recieved exceptional service thought out the evening, during a very busy warm weekend in Melbourne. Our waiter was very helpful in recommending popular menu item’s, polite and very professional. The manager Kosta is clearly very dedicated and passionate about ensuring all the restaurants customers have wonderful night. Well done to the team and I would highly recommend.

    Food was great. Unfortunately the waiter dropped a dish of cheese over my friend. Was very apologetic however no discount or any other token of goodwill was offered.

    Fantastic desserts. Many desserts are made after we order, so fresh and straight out of the oven! The bougatsa and apple tarte are very delicious and the chocolate brownie cake is extra special! If you can include a chai latte with fresh chai leaves rather than the powder, I would be very appreciative!

    I really enjoy dining at Caffe Greco. Both of the Alex’s provide excellent customer service, are very attentive and very kind. They are very welcoming. The food is exemplary, especially the slow cooked lamb and potatoes. Many desserts are made to order, such as the sokolata temptation and the apple tart. I enjoy the privacy of the booths and the relaxing atmosphere. It’s such a great restaurant and we always go away happy. A quality dining venue in the heart of Oakleigh, not to be missed!
