Ellenika Taverna

Ellenika Traditional Greek Taverna brings the vibrant spirit of the Greek islands to Adelaide’s Marina Pier in Glenelg. With its whitewashed walls, cascading greenery, and panoramic views of the waterfront, the restaurant offers a Mediterranean escape in a stunning seaside setting.

The menu celebrates classic Greek flavours with a modern twist. Signature dishes include tender grilled octopus, zucchini flower fritters, and rosemary-marinated lamb cutlets. Meze-style dining encourages sharing, with platters brimming with chargrilled meats, fresh seafood, and house-made dips. Heartier mains like slow-roasted goat and indulgent seafood platters are perfect for a satisfying feast. A curated selection of Greek wines and cocktails rounds out the experience with bold, refreshing pairings.

Ellenika is suited to a variety of occasions, from romantic dinners and sunset cocktails to festive group gatherings. The venue features several dining areas, including a main dining room, a private Santorini room for intimate functions, and a breezy indoor terrace that channels the relaxed charm of Mykonos. Weekend visits are elevated with live Greek music that adds energy and authenticity to the atmosphere.

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply craving Mediterranean comfort food, Ellenika Traditional Greek Taverna delivers a warm and memorable dining experience that captures the essence of Greek hospitality.
