Fetta's Greek Taverna

The restaurant had a nice atmosphere and was a pleasant place to sit, but the food was disappointing. Portions felt very minimal(all serves in small plates) and didn't meet the expectations. I wouldn't recommend the pastitsio with chips (kids), didn't have beschamel but a thick layer of cheese on top. Neither the Set menu($42.90 each person), as the portions for all 3 people were bare minimum. Photos of 3 set menu for reference. The bread although was delicious!

Delicious food and service was great up until we were finishing. Couldn't get a servers eye to order dessert. In the end we left without

Didn’t know the inside of the restaurant is that beautiful decorated. Good service. Really delicious food, the desserts is a must try too. Very satisfied

Excellent authentic Greek menu offers an extensive range of Greek dishes. Atmosphere is lovely, I did feel like in Greece. We have been lucky to speak to lovely owner whilst there. He is in the restaurant business over 50 years. In Cairns over 24 years. Obviously he knows his job the best. Young personal here are very nice, friendly, polite and trying to accommodate all needs from guests. They are good in it. Our Zorba set menue was tasty and delicious as all Greek food is. The new menue doesn't include baklava as per web, only coffee. It's BYO restaurant with $5 charge per head. Thank you for lovely night.

OMG went there by chance on my wifes actual 50th birthday. Delicious food came out really quickly. Service was exceptional. We danced to traditional music as the owner and staff smashed plates on the floor. I was nearly in tears as my wife enjoyed every moment. Greek wife, Melbourne family of 5. Thanks for making her family tradition feel really real

Wow, high reviews for what? One of the worst Greek restaurants I have been to. When you're not in Greece, you never expect the real thing, but it's like this restaurant didn't even try. The Good: The pita with the variety of dips was nice and delicious. That's it. The Bad: Lamb gyro with chips. The meat was so salty to the point where it was hard to taste anything else. The pita was chewy, tough, and not fresh. It was the most sorry excuse for a gyro I've ever had. Also, we ordered spanokopita and it never arrived at our table. We informed the wait staff and they said they would get it. 30 minutes later, still nothing. We ended up paying for our meal and forgetting about it. While paying, the woman at the counter subtracted the cost of the spanokopita after we told her what happened. She said "well you can try it next time you come back". Lol, there will be no next time. This food does not mirror the excellency of true Greek cuisine.

Fetta’s Greek Taverna continues to be our favourite Greek restaurant in Cairns. With a large selection of gluten free menu selections available. We love it!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Unforgettable Night at Fetta’s Greek Taverna Came here with my family of five to celebrate my 50th birthday, and from the moment we walked through the door we were made to feel like part of the family. The warmth and hospitality at Fetta’s Greek Taverna set the tone for what turned out to be one of the most memorable nights I’ve ever had. The food was absolutely delicious—bursting with authentic Greek flavours. We started with a selection of dips, saganaki, octopus, and calamari, all perfectly cooked and full of taste. For mains, we enjoyed lamb gyros and moussaka, while the kids had a mixed gyro, pastitso with chips, and spaghetti bolognese. Every dish was generous, flavourful, and clearly made with care. The highlight of the night, though, came when we ordered dessert. The staff surprised me by coming out singing Happy Birthday, and then offered to lead the traditional Zorba dance, as well as smashing plates. Before we knew it, nearly the whole restaurant was up on their feet joining in! It was such a joyful, unexpected moment that made the night truly special. I’m so happy I celebrated my birthday at Fetta’s—they created memories I’ll hold onto forever. If only I could find an authentic Greek taverna like this back home. Thank you to all the friendly, amazing staff for giving me the best night. Highly, highly recommended!

Was here on a busy night. The owner was very friendly and told us there might be a wait as two staff had not arrived. Having said that, waitress Lucy went to pains to make sure our table was well attended, she is a credit to the owner and this business. Food was generally very tasty,chicken was on the overcooked and dry side. Overall the food was ok, but the atmosphere was fantastic, dancing and plate smashing included. A little expensive, but I would go again.

Everything about this place was great! Except the wait but I am not going to ding the place - the wait was totally worth it. Fresh food? CHECK Delicious food? CHECK Great atmosphere? CHECK The owner came by my table and gave me a free glass of wine as he saw I was dining by myself and I had been waiting a long time. A little while later he stopped by again to just chat. And then there was some party or something happening - a birthday maybe? But the owner started breaking dishes and the whole place started dancing and singing some Greek songs. The food was good enough for 5 stars, the rest speaks for itself!

My family & I had been looking forward to dining at this restaurant for a few months, but our experience was (unfortunately) beyond disappointing. We had a booking for 7. Arrived, seated, ordered our entrees and mains, had a beer each. 30 minutes pass, our drinks are finished. We asked the waitress we ordered with how long the food would be and she gave us a non-committal grunt. So when another waitress came by, we ordered a bottle of wine. It's now 7:56pm and we still have no food! Then a waitress appears with our mains. We still haven't had our entrees. She has no idea where the entrees are and why we haven't received them, and the waitress we placed our order with is nowhere to be seen. So, we left. Waiting an hour for entrees is never okay. I have given 2 stars because the waitress who brought our mains to us (when we hadn't received our entrees) was very apologetic, and so was the hostess. Incredibly poor service from the waitress who took our order - she was unable to give us an answer when we enquired as to how long our food would be, she didn't come back with an answer, and she was nowhere to be seen when we were served our mains before our entrees. Worth noting that our entrees ordered were dips and sardines, and the restaurant was only half full. I am incredibly disappointed. What a waste of an hour.

The lamb gyro was absolutely out of this world. I have been to dozens of Greek restaurants and never been to one that makes all their meals from scratch. The staff and owner are very friendly and the service was fairly quick.

A spacious and nicely decorated greek restaurant run by a gregarious fellow who seems to know all the regulars. We had the saganaki ( fried greek cheese) which arrived hot in a frying pan, served with warm, crunchy fresh bread and a lemon wedge. It was salty, buttery and good. "Greek salad" came with our dinner but it was just lettuce, tomato, onion, and 3 olives, with a slice of feta cheese. ( no dressing, no cucumbers) Tried the spanakopita and the vegetarian moussaka. Moussaka was very mild but OK. The spanakopita was better, made with crunchy phyllo around a dill flavored spinach, onion, and feta filling. Three pieces were one order and it was filling. Assorted desserts were available. Space was very noisy with no carpeting on the floors and dimly lit in the back. Breaking plates was optional.

We have been here a few times. George (the owner) is a permanent fixture and loves his homeland. Reasonably priced meals with big serves. Locals love the place. #ResearchAndTravelServices #facxual_events

Awesome food..... Hummus and pita, falafel wrap on request and lamb chops..... Absolutely loved it :) nice hole in the wall...

The food was fabulous. Everything Fresh. The Spanakopitta and Moussaka was to die for. The Greek wine was great and very smooth. A must if in Cairns.

Amazing takeaway gyros!! Inexpensive, delicious and friendly staff conveniently located super close to Gillian's

We are vegetarians here in Cairns on vacation and went to fettas for dinner on a weeknight. The service was great -- had the feel of a family run business. We got the halloumi with eggplant and tomato sauce, vegetarian moussaka and an order of French fries ("chips"). The halloumi was delicious -- the eggplant was delicious and the halloumi was soft and pan fried. The moussaka was great as well -- perfect comfort food that hit the spot after a day diving on the reef. The chips were freshly fried and perfectly crisp. Overall, we enjoyed the meal and would recommend it to vegetarians looking for a solid meal in Cairns.

We dined here a few days ago and I have to say that we loved the place. Mixed dips with pita was really good, especially the salmon dip. Lamb gyro was really good as well and the service was timely and very friendly. Very happy with th e experience.
