REVIEW: Cape Greco - Malahide

September 10, 2008

Probably one of the best Greek restaurants I ever ate in, and I’ve been in Greece several times! It is located in the centre of Malahide village, at the top floor of a two storey building.

Our table (4 adults, one child):
Tzatziki (Greek yoghurt mixed with grated cucumber, fresh garlic and mint, served with pita bread) - 5,50 euro (excellent);
Hummus (Chick peas and tahini blended with olive oil, garlic and fresh lemon juice, served with pita bread) - 5,50 euro (excellent);
Saganaki (Grilled feta cheese with olive oil, oregano, peppers and pita bread) - 5,50 euro;
Greek village salad (Fresh salad with lettuce, rocket, coriander, peppers, spring onions, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, green & black olives with homemade dressing, served with pita bread) - 6,50
Mydia (Grilled mussels served with garlic butter and fresh lemon) - 7,50 euro;
Mousaka (Layers of sliced courgettes, aubergines, potatoes, tomatoes and lean minced beef cooked in red wine topped with béchamel sauce oven baked in individual clay dishes) - 17 euro;
Lamb souvlaki (Skewered diced lamb marinated in white wine, olive oil, garlic and thyme, served with tzatziki) - 18,95 euro;
Kotopoullo gemisto (Chicken breast stuffed with feta cheese, black olives and oregano coated with breadcrumbs and deep-fried, served with lemon butter sauce) - 16,50 euro;
Baklava (Layers of filo pastry filled with a mixture of roasted walnuts, cinnamon and honey, served with vanilla ice-cream) - 5,95 euro;

Unfortunately, two of the three desserts we ordered were missing due to, I guess, a waiter’s mistake (and lack of memory).
Anyway, nice atmosphere at Cape Greco, pretty busy at midday, good services, excelent value price/quality/quantity.

ROMAN’S MARK: 8.90/10
