This restaurant is literally my family's number one place to eat at. This is definitely the place to go to if you want to experience authentic Greek cuisine, whether it's Shwarmas or Spanakopita, you won't be disappointed. My parents have been going to Aris for about 30 years now and we are always amazed by the quality of food we receive. Definitely worth checking this out..
Don’t expect bells and whistles, just really tasty authentic Greek food. The place looks basic and isn’t concerned with fancy decor but man oh man....Amazing Souvlaki. Best I have had. Great service and good prices.
I remember the days when my father used to take me to this little restaurant on the corner and I was served by very friendly waiters and waitresses. I have very fond memories of eating here and all the wonderful Greek food we used to share made for many wonderful and bonded memories I would definitely recommend coming here to create some memories of your own with some delicious Greek cuisine!
If you're looking for arguably the best hummus in the CBD, look no further than this place. Great ambiance and friendly, approachable service although tables felt pretty sticky so that can be a bit annoying. The meat could have more flavour to it but the variety of Mediterranean herbs do come through well and the open dishes make for an amazing opportunity to explore flavourful combinations. Great recommendations include the Meze and Beef shawarma
Great experience, the beef was well flavored and the meze starter added to the Greek food experience. I would definitely recommend Aris Souvlaki, they Halaal friendly too! ;)
I've been a patron of Aris Souvlaki for years. It's still exactly the same. Nonetheless the food still tastes the same.
A variety of Mediterranean items and the flavour is fresh and good. I've never been disappointed. Look pass the old and dated Nature and you'll be fine. If you want quick and easy service go to McD

Guys, this joint is not about the decor, the service or the ambiance, but more about amazing home-styled Greek food that's made like you would find in a Greek kitchen. Flip, it was our first time there and I can tell you now that it will be somewhere we will frequent often.
Unfortunately, we got stuck in as soon as the plates hit the table and didn't stop, so I never got any photos, but I'll take some next time!
We had three courses: the mezze platter to start (that comes with falafels, dolmathakia, hummus, tzaziki and skordalia with warm pita bread. We then had chicken and lamb souvlaki and ended off with galaktobouriko (milk tart), all of which I could have eaten all over again. Immediately.
My advice, look beyond the dated decor and plastic covered tables, seriously, and let your tastebuds give you their opinion.
Love Aris Souvlaki. If you want a home-style meal that tastes like it came from a Greek grandmother's kitchen you have found the right place. Service can be a bit slow but food is fresh, flavourful and comes to the table quickly. This pita breads is to die for. You can't go wrong with a traditional beef shwarma.
This restaurant looks exactly the same as it did 10 years ago but their open shwarma is always delicious and a huge portion. The food is tasty and every time we have been their we receive our food within 10 minutes! Aris is nothing fancy but their shwarma never disappoints.
I absolutely love Aris Sovlaki! Great food, friendly owner and staff and what makes it so unique is that it is totaly unpretentious...a rare find in the mother city. Will definitely be returning.
We had an amazing dinner, I highly recommend the platter as it is enough for two. The meat was so tender and well seasoned. Thoroughly enjoyed dining in one of Sea Point's classics!
Fantastic service and super friendly. Would recommend for friends, couples and singles. No place for children to play as it is just seating.
The food portions are large and delicious! Shwarmas are definetly enough for two!
Came here for a quick bite after a hike, great food at a reasonable price. Not very experienced in Greek cuisine, but tasted amazing! Staff was very untrained it seemed and we needed to ask for a lot of things (plate, fork). Other than the service it was excellent.
In the heart of sea Point its a nice place to have a meal. Decor is bit outdated but spot is nice and busy. The food is also OK when I had my meal on the table the salad looked like it was cut in the morning and was left open as it had a bit of dryness. Selection of drinks is also limited.
Been one my favourite resturant since I first went there in 1995, and still the best.
Nice vibe and good service. We ordered the small chips and chicken shawarma, the shawarma was okay. I think next time we’ll try the souvlaki.
My husband and I had a weekend away in Sea Point. We decided to try this restaurant and enjoyed the mixed grill platter so much that we came back the next day again. Delicious food and great service! Highly recommend it.
Nice little place serving Greek style food, although somewhat disappointed that the souvlaki options didn't include pork. Quick service and reasonable value.
What a wonderful experience! Young, willing and friendly staff. Food was delicious. From platters, to falafels and constant pita refill. The cheese cake was massive with a dollop of greek yogurt breaks the sweetness before ending the night with a coffee. Thank you for the atmosphere and family-feel restaurant. Would definitely recommend.
Great food and service, but the appearance from the street can put a person off. Must try it before you judge.
