As Greek Orthodox Easter approaches, families and friends across Sydney begin preparing for one of the most important celebrations of the year – a time defined by tradition, togetherness and, of course, exceptional food.
One of Sydney’s newer Greek dining spots, Stix Hellenic Taverna in Tempe, is quickly making its mark, bringing a relaxed, modern taverna experience to the inner west. Located within the Riverview Hotel precinct, it offers an easy, accessible setting for group dining, with the kind of atmosphere that lends itself naturally to long lunches and shared meals.
This year, Stix is inviting the community to come together and celebrate Easter the way it should be – around the table, sharing generous dishes, with their signature charcoal-grilled meats at the centre of the experience.
Open across the entire Easter period – including Good Friday and all days for both Greek Orthodox and Catholic Easter – Stix is positioning itself as a go-to destination for those looking to honour tradition without the stress of hosting at home.
A menu designed for sharing, just like in Greece
At the heart of the celebration is a specially curated $90 set menu (minimum four people), created to capture the essence of a true Greek Easter feast.
The meal begins with classic starters including a fresh Greek salad, grilled halloumi, pan-fried calamari and house-made spanakopita, before moving into the heart of the menu – souvla meats cooked over organic charcoal, alongside lamb backstrap and chicken souvlaki, all served with chips.
To finish, guests are treated to traditional desserts, with bougatsa and ekmek rounding out the experience.
It’s a generous, share-style menu that keeps things simple, familiar and well executed – exactly what most people look for when gathering around the table for Easter.
