Reviews of El Greco - Greek Italian Eatery
We had a generally positive dining experience at this local restaurant. The portions are incredibly generous, and the prices are very reasonable. It was our first visit, so it would have been helpful if the waitress, who appeared to be quite young, had taken a moment to introduce the menu. My husband ordered the signature dish, which was impressively large but could have used more vegetables for balance. Overall, a great spot for those who enjoy hearty portions and good value.
I recently dined at El Greco, which offers Mediterranean Greek-Italian cuisine. The quality of the food was excellent, and it was incredibly delicious. The flavors remain consistent over the years, which speaks to the restaurant's commitment to quality. The atmosphere was very welcoming and another important aspect is the cleanliness and hygiene of the restrooms which rarely happens in most restaurants. I highly recommend this restaurant for a great dining experience.
My all time favourite restaurant in Auckland!!! I have been going here for years and am never disappointed - the food is high quality, delicious, and full of flavour. The atmosphere is great and the staff are amazing!
I visited the restaurant with my family. There were a lot of people, and after trying the food, I understood why it was so popular. The dishes had a fresh and delightful taste. Even my young son really enjoyed the pasta here. We were also very thankful for the friendly staff. I highly recommend this Greek-Italian restaurant in Auckland.
Had dinner last night at El Greco and we absolutely loved the experience. From the warm and friendly staff, to the comfortable outdoor seating, to the amazing food, everything was exceptional.
We had a quiet dog and this was fine. Flat surfaces, so ok for wheelchairs too. Our fried has celiacs and this also was not a problem.
I loved the Italian lagers (it was great to have another option, rather than just Peroni). The 7 ⭐️ Metaxa was similar to a Cognac, full of flavours and a great way to finish the night over dessert. Nice wine selections too.
Really enjoyed all the food - souvlaki, squid, pasta. Lots of generous amounts of salad.
My only feedback would be to only use vegetables that are in season. Brussel sprouts are not in season now, which means they’re probably cooked from frozen and we found them mushy.
Apart from that we loved everything about dining here and would highly recommend it to others.
Graci!
I could have sworn I already wrote a rave review about El Greco on our first visit, but since I don't see it, it's worth writing a second review for our second visit as it will be one of many more to come.
George and Kostas will welcome you in like family, happy to banter and check in on your experience; it is a place to dine and talk after all. Indoor and outdoor seating - make sure you book ahead, especially if wanting to sit outside. But let's get onto the food ... Basically, everything is great haha. It's easier to say that than list specifics but I'm going to do it anyways.
Their house speciality Gyros El Greco is the best of its type I've had, and easily shareable 2 to 4 ways if others are getting main or multiple entrees. The lasagna, dry seafood pasta, and spaghetti carbonara are always going to be winners. The meatball entree is an absolute must for their amazingly rich yet thin pasta sauce. Those are our go-tos, but we're still trying more dishes to see what else they do great like the moussaka. Oh, and the fried calamari are gigantic, meaty rings.
Love this restaurant. The food is amazing and staff are very friendly & personable. Great atmosphere and all-in-all on of my favourite restaurants on the North Shore.
I had a fantastic experience at El Greco! The dry seafood marinara was a standout with a perfectly cooked variety of seafood. The mixed dips were a delightful start, and the Aperol spritz was just the right touch to complement the dishes. To top it all off, we ended the night with the tiramisu. The vibe of the place was incredible, and the staff were a highlight, bringing humour and charm. I was especially impressed with how quick the food came out considering we were a group of 10. I highly recommend El Greco for anyone looking for great food and a fun atmosphere!
