I used to frequent Souvlaki King on a weekly basis. There was nothing like finishing up a shift at the Perseverance hotel, then strolling down to the ‘King for a bite before catching the night rider bus home…
Ah the good old days.
Perhaps that’s why I am so disappointed now. Maybe my memory is clouded by fond reminiscences from twenty years ago, but the food here has dropped a notch I think. What used to be juicy lamb straight from the spit with lemon and garlic, wrapped in charred pita and served up hot and fresh and gob smacking brilliant has become lamb, cut from the spit to be smashed into smaller bits on a hot plate, relatively tasteless, and combined with a weak garlic sauce and fresh lettuce, onion and tomato.
It lacks the punch it needs, or that I remember it having before. The charred crunch of crust on bits of the lamb, the undercurrent of lemon and oregano and salt.
It was… It was ordinary. Perhaps it is just me, or my faulty memory. I was hoping for something ‘extra’
No longer worth the travel for a hit.
I would recommend Souvlaki King to anyone who has the late night munchies. The place manages to maintain a good standard of cleanliness despite usually being busy.
As well as any of the souvlakis, I would recommend the dim sims to anyone who decide to give it a try.
Nothing special. For a late night drunken eat it’s good. The souvlaki was very ordinary but will definitely hit the spot when you’re stumbling down Brunswick st in the early hours of the morning.
A night out in Brunswick Street wouldn’t be the same without a quick visit to the souvlaki King! I have eaten here on numerous occasions both sober and also after a few. They consistently offer the best souvlaki in Melbourne. Apart from fresh salads it all comes down to the quality of the meat. It’s the main event and this place always puts on a show!
Another night to explore Fitzroy — where has become so trendy recently . Even a ‘snobbish’ South Yarra dweller is intrigued to come to this side to take a look.
I had a good experience with this little souvlaki place . Here 3am on a late Friday night out. This place is packed with people just finished clubbing and here for a feed. The cashier has a beautiful smile and the chef works so hard and skilfully behind the counter . Three big skewers of lamb rolling above the burning charcoal . What an amazing view !
The taste of the souvlaki is amazing , plenty of real meat and garlic sauce , lol
They also have three interesting unusual souvlaki– hangover souvlaki, Aussie souvlaki and greekisland souvlaki. Well worth trying .
Nothing more to say…. Best kebab in Melbourne!!! Always delicious and the guys and gals behind the counter are like old friends…. Great way to finish a great night out..
If your a foodie you probably won’t like this place. I’ll stick to Jimmy Grants for a souvlaki in future.
