  This charming little restaurant has to be one of Ipswich’s best kept secrets. I had never tried Greek food before and decided to start by having dinner here. Picking a meal was hard because everything on the menu looked fantastic. We ordered a bunch of different dishes and every single one was absolutely superb. Everything was so fresh, beautifully cooked and well presented, I still can’t say what I enjoyed the most. The swordfish gyrios were mouth watering and so was the lamb cooked to perfection so that it melted in your mouth. Calamari can often be a hit and miss but the calamari entree dish here is really something special and one I really recommend ordering because they really know how to cook it here. The quality of the seafood here is really very good. I found the portion sizes to be perfect and the atmosphere was so wonderful – it ended up being a great location for a birthday dinner. I would suggest that as tempting as all the main courses are, be sure to leave room for desert so that you can try the panacotta or the passionopita which are both divine!

  Arcadia is a local favorite of my wife and mine, we seem to find a reason to come by every few months. The Ouzo Prawns and Lamb Stifado are favorites as is the Pannacotta, but I still try to try something different every time we come, and I have yet to try something I didn’t like. Especially fond of having Ouzo with watermelon and feta alongside my appetizers. Any time we come with friends everybody has come away happy and satisfied. Glad to have such a good Greek restaurant so close to home.

  Situated in a beautiful little 1920s corner store on the Warwick Road, Arcadia’s interior is crisp and bright, with whitewashed walls, a pressed metal counter and concrete floor. A huge mural of a farmer carrying goods on a mule sets the scene. The fresh sparseness of the venue has its drawbacks as well, echoing passing truck noise… From a menu divided into Meze, Grill, Oven and Sides covering many classic Greek dishes, we choose a Meze plate to share ($25) comprising hot and cold appetisers, calamari and chorizo, dolmades, dips and house-baked pita bread a delicious generous portion which could easily provide a light meal. Its a great lead in to our mains which are a bit more patchy: Ouzo Prawns tossed in tomato and feta, unfortunately too salty to eat, and Seafood pie (a delicious mix of seafood in mustard cream sauce, yet stuffed with fresh lettuce leaves between two puff pastry triangles it adds up to a most unusual combination). Theres a good range of Greek beers and wine on offer to accompany the meal. Our order for the Grecian delight pannacotta would be without Persian fairy floss, were told, so we choose Passionopita for dessert, a disc of passionfruit sponge topped with fresh strawberries and yoghurt, a light and delicious dessert! foodgoldcoast.com.au
