Plato's Philosopher's Kitchen

We were reticent about going to Plato's for dinner after having not enjoyed a takeway meal a couple of months earlier. However we enjoyed the food on this occasion. The mixed seafood dish was very tasty although the circular, high-sided bowl was a little unusual (maybe it's a traditional Greek piece of crockery). A slow-cooked lamb dish was also very tasty.

Ended up here for a late meal one night. Prices were reasonably expensive, even for Hyde Park. Sadly the food did not live up to the price - the chicken component of my meal was certainly a long way from $27 and a bit tough.Was VERY CLOSE to sending it back, but ultimately quitiiiite bad enough - and I hate wasting food. Service was good and atmosphere was good, but unfortunately food quality and value wasn't up to scratch on the night. Hopefully it was a one off.

Greek themed 30 June party started with a bang with 'create your own' yiros! All food prepared by Plato's was amazing and very reasonably priced - generously portioned too. Will be visiting again!!
