Reviews of Dimitris Greek Food Riverside
A.
So far, the best souvlaki place I've been to. Single sized platter + small pita is a good portion if you're hungry, but want a little room for desert. Lots of fresh salad and sauce. Very tasty meat (I had beef mince and my wife had chicken). Olives are a tad too salty for my taste, but it's not a big deal. Overall, very healthy meal.
M.
Consistently delicious 😋 I have been going to Dimitris since 2000 and I've never had a bad meal. It is always fresh and tasty. GF or Vegetarian available. The service is always beautiful. If you haven't tried Dimitris You need to. 5 Stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
L.
Absolutely delicious lamb souvlaki. The meat was tender, sauce was yum and price reasonable for the amount of food you get. Only critique was the dough was a bit too thick.
J.
Really delicious food. The salads are nice and fresh and you get a decent amount of meat. My favourite place to eat at Riverside, so far. A shame that they close at 6pm during the week, because it'd be the perfect quick dinner before a movie.
L.
Fantastic souvlaki, fantastic service. I have been here many times and have never had a bad experience. 😍
The queue can get pretty long sometimes, especially on the weekend, however the staff are very onto it. Despite there being so many people in line in front and behind me, I received my order within about 5 minutes of payment - pretty awesome !!!
Sometimes it is difficult to get through to the counter to collect your food, however it is understandable considering the chaotic, space constrained and stressful lunch rushes.
And please try Dmitri's falafel!! It is absolutely delicious, as are their homemade sauces. Definitely a vegetarian must-go in the city.
S.
Had been craving one of Dimitris Souvlakis since the last visit to Christchurch and this one didn't disappoint. The bustling riverside market is a great atmosphere to enjoy the food also
J.
Some of the best Greek food I’ve had in a long time. I tried the combination triple meat platter which was delicious accompanied by the fresh salad. Chicken and lamb were so flavourful but the falafel stole the show! Great value too at $18.50 for a huge portion.
R.
You can always count on the sweet, warm embrace of a falafel souv from Dimitris! Would love if you had a vegan tzatziki sauce :)
J.
An Ōtautahi Christchurch institution. The pita is huge and the sauces and fillings are flavourful and generous. Their falafel is the best I've ever had too.
M.
The best ever. Missed Dimitris so much living up in welly the past few years and making up for that now 😂 vegan falafel platter with hot sauce and hummus, my go to. Lovely staff and consistently great kai.
Thanks
Micah

Dimitris Greek Souvlaki has been consistently the most filling, mouth watering and yummiest food options in Central Christchurch since I moved to ChCh in 2009.
There is no more rewarding meal experience than those Dimitris Greek Souvlaki 🥙
All is home made, from the dough for the wrap to their delicious tzatziki and tomato based dressing made from fresh tomatoes, the spice they season the best quality meat of your choice...
I hardly give 5*, as it is reserved for the exceptional services and experiences. And this is one of them you should not miss whilst you are in ChCh.
K.
Absolutely to die for. Dimitris is and always will be one of my favourite eatery places in Christchurch
E.
Absolutely delicious food and lots of it. You can dine in or have take away.reasonable prices, friendly staff and good parking. Worth a try and experience it for yourself.
A.
I've enjoyed Dimitris Falafel for almost 2 decades now - at the racecourse market, in the old food court in ballantines, even in the halswell community hall carpark, but i had yet to try out the riverside location. Yesterday our work ordered Dimitris for pickup (thanks to lockdown). Maybe it was nostalgia, maybe it was lockdown talking, but this was hands down the best souvlaki i've ever had. It was positively overflowing with hummus and ridiculously generous with olives. (I love olives!) I'll definitely be hiking back to riverside for more!
D.
Souvlaki for team lunch and Dimitris was such a fabulous choice.
Was initially annoyed that the Riccarton branch was closed (didn't know until I saw the door sign) but the Riverside Market outlet totally redeemed themselves.
10 souvlakis were cooked in only 8 minutes, they wrote individual names on each packet and the taste was simply wonderful.
We had all sorts and everyone in the team enjoyed a wonderfully filling meal for lunch.
Would most certainly be willing to do this again and it was totally worth the trip into town.
Wonderfully well done to the team!
B.
Delicious! Staff were friendly and helpful. The service was super quick and the souvlaki was delicious and the serving was huge!
C.
Service a bit slow and they didn't listen to our order clearly. The pizza was nice but a bit greezy. Nice location but surely better pizza in town.
T.
First discovered Dimitris back in 89, every time I come to Chc, this is a must do for me and whoever I'm with. This Iconic brand never fails!
d.
One of the best souvlaki I had, They should open a restaurant in Auckland.
B.
The dimitris team really puts in a stellar shift at this Christchurch location. Really friendly and I grew to get a real buzz as I prepared to hand over my $13NZD for my felafel souvlaki. Even threw in the hummus and hot sauce free of charge. Don’t know if that’s a regular complimentary deal or what but I was well impressed. A real volcano of flavours. Transports me to far Greek places...
M.
I had my first Dimitris’ souvlaki over thirty years ago. We used to go to the Art Centre every Saturday morning for one. Just finished my first one in seven or eight years, and it was just as good as the first one I ever had. Still the best souvlaki in town. Thank you so much.
K.
What can I say... Bloody best Greek food in NZ. If you ever in Christchurch you have to go...
B.
Huge, delicious Souvlakis.. long queues in front of the store say it all.
T.
The souvlaki is outstanding! Riverside Market is a cool vibe.
K.
Fast, efficient, delicious souvlaki. Don't be put off by the queue, they pump out the food pretty quickly. We had a shorter wait than someone else in our group who had ordered food from another stall with no queue.
A.
A Christchurch institution - a must do. Try the Lamb Souvlaki, enjoy under the trees or on the seats outside.

The new shop at the Riverside Markets is small with no dine in seating. There is however indoor and outdoor seating in the complex.

Potentially the best souvlaki in town! Real meat and real flavor!

Pretty good souvlaki although they need to pit the olives, it’s a pain almost breaking a tooth whilst eating a salad

Always a great souvalki. Have been consistently good for the 20 plus years I have been eating them

The food is delicious and the customer service is amazing too!
The food is amazing and I can see why there is always a long line at this place. I ordered a double chicken souvlaki with hot chilli and hummus and it was so delicious I almost went back for another one (the portion sizing is huge though so I was already full) The white sauce was tangy and delicious and the tomato sauce was sweet and complimented everything perfectly. I am not a big fan of the tomato chunks so I skipped those but I imagine if I liked tomato, they would be equally delicious too
I also had the pleasure of being served by a young girl whos name I didn't catch (she was a young maori girl I believe from the greenstone and maori earring she was wearing) so if you know who I'm referring to, please send her my thanks
She patiently explained the menu to me as I had never eaten there before and answered all of the questions that I had, even wishing me a happy birthday as she noticed that it was when she checked my vaccine pass.
If I could rate more than 5 stars, I definitely would! Reccomend!

(Translated) Super delicious Greek burritos (souvlaki)! Very cute dining car sells Christchurch must-eat food, you can choose from chicken, beef, lamb and vegetarian hummus, which can be double or three kinds of meat, Pita crust is very fragrant, slightly chewy, but not You will have a toughness that the elderly can not taste, but those who do not want to eat Pita also have non-pie crustless bread options.
I ate mutton and hummus this time. The mutton is large but not hard, fresh and tender. The hummus is seasoned with curry. Pita cakes are filled with lettuce salad, tomato, yogurt sauce, and burritos. The bouquet is held in the hand, which is a balanced and delicious meal. The dining car is next to the park. You can enjoy the view while eating. Just starting the line soon after opening, but the meal is fast. You can see that both locals and tourists will come to taste. Definitely a must eat, don't miss it when you come to Christchurch!

超好吃的希臘捲餅(souvlaki)!很可愛的餐車販售基督城必吃美食,有雞肉、牛肉、羊肉和素食鷹嘴豆泥可以選擇,其中肉可以雙拼或三種皆有,Pita餅皮很香,稍微有嚼勁,但又不會到老人家無法品嚐的韌度,然而不想吃Pita的也有非餅皮無麵包的選擇。
這次吃了羊肉跟鷹嘴豆泥,羊肉很大塊但不硬,很新鮮軟嫩,鷹嘴豆泥有用咖喱調味,Pita餅中還有滿滿生菜沙拉跟番茄,佐酸奶醬,捲餅像一朵花束握在手中,是均衡又美味的一餐,餐車在公園旁,可以邊吃邊欣賞美景,剛營業不久就開始排隊,但出餐速度很快,可以看到本地跟觀光客都會來品嚐,絕對是必吃美食,來到基督城千萬不要錯過!

(Translated) Greek burritos are delicious, we are some chicken. A lot of juice is roasted, and the serving size is sufficient. When buying, it is a storefront form.

(Translated) The Greek burrito was delicious. We ordered 15 yuan of chicken + mutton. The portion was large. The meat was a piece of meat, not a piece of meat.
