Skewers of chicken marinated in olive oil, lemon and oregano, then charbroiled to order over an open flame. Our chicken souvlaki is one of the most ordered plates at our Stone Church Road West kitchen in Ancaster, served as a platter with rice and salad or rolled into a warm pita with garlic sauce.
Souvlaki is the classic Greek street food that made grilled skewers famous, and we keep ours simple and honest. Cubes of chicken sit in a marinade of olive oil, fresh lemon juice, garlic and oregano before they go on the skewer, so the flavour is in the meat rather than in a heavy sauce. Everything is grilled to order, which is why it arrives juicy inside with a lightly charred, smoky edge.
Order it as a platter and it comes with seasoned rice, a fresh garden salad, warm pita and a side of our house garlic sauce. Prefer something you can carry? The souvlaki pita wrap is built for a quick lunch in Ancaster or a fast dinner on the way home. Either way it is cooked when you order it, never held under a lamp.
Guests tell us the same three things: the chicken is tender, the portion is generous and the price is fair. As a family-run Mediterranean restaurant in Ancaster we cook the way we would at home, which means fresh marinades, clean grilling and no shortcuts. It is a light, protein-rich plate that works just as well for a weekday business lunch as it does for a family dinner.
