The Greek House Restaurant gives its Point Chevalier setting a broader outlook than the name alone might suggest. The owners bring Palestinian and Jordanian family backgrounds, as well as the influence of growing up in Malaysia, to a menu framed around Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cooking. Patterned floor tiles, blue walls, gold lamps and high-backed teal chairs reinforce the colourful character of the dining room, creating a comfortable backdrop for a shared meal rather than a narrowly themed stop for one signature dish.
Cold appetisers and meze are a natural place to begin. A platter can bring together smooth hummus, cooling tzatziki, smoky baba ganoush, dolma and fattouche with fresh bread, allowing diners to move between creamy, tangy and herb-led flavours. Falafel, individual dips and salads topped with halloumi or calamari provide other ways to build the opening round. The range makes the restaurant particularly well suited to a table that wants to order communally and sample several textures before the main plates arrive.
The barbecue is one of the kitchen's focal points. Shish tawook marinates chicken with garlic, yoghurt and Middle Eastern spices before grilling, while the accompanying saffron rice brings butter, onion, spice, almonds and parsley to the plate. Barbecue dishes are joined by smoked preparations and seafood, giving diners alternatives to wraps and classic main courses. That mix also lets a group choose between charcoal-led flavours, a rice-centred meal and lighter seafood without leaving the restaurant's central Mediterranean and Middle Eastern vocabulary.
Greek elements remain visible through gyros wraps, moussaka and Greek salad, creating a menu that moves comfortably across neighbouring food traditions. The service options are similarly flexible: guests can dine in, collect a takeaway or order delivery, while catering extends the cooking to larger occasions. A separate party space accommodates birthdays, weddings and corporate gatherings, so the venue can function as both a neighbourhood restaurant for an everyday dinner and a setting for a more organised group celebration.
