Any Greek restaurants in Dublin?

Does anyone know if there are any Greek restaurants in Dublin? I've hunted high and low to no avail, and I'm missing my souvlaki, gyros and bifteki from when I lived in Germany and the Netherlands, not to mention the Retsina!

It seems strange that in the UK and continental europe they're pretty well represented, but not here.

There is a very good one around the tower records area of grafton street but to be honest I forget its name or where it is. I was there about 3 years ago and it was excellent so I'm sure its still thriving.

There's a new turkish/greek fast food/restaurant joint a few doors down from the Epicurian Food Center. It has gyros advertised but i haven't actually tried it yet. Perhaps tomorrow.

In bray there is a place on the seafront called the "Three of idleness" wow they do great food a bit on the $$ side but if you like your food it is worth it

The Tree of Idleness closed down a while ago due to the owner retiring (I live in Bray!). Anyway it was a Cypriot restaurant with a rather bizarre menu that wasn't one thing or the other IMO.

Hmmm, haven't noticed it ... I'll take a closer look next time.

Which entrance? To the Epicurian Food Centre, that is, there's two IIRC?

It's been a while since I've been there, sad news! Yes, it was a bit bizarre, but was a fine place. I remember the sweet trolley well...

It's not the one on Abbey St - it's the one that leads to Hapenny Bridge. Actually tried it today and it's Moroccan, not Greek or Turkish. I didn't think it was great TBH.

I love Greek food as well but haven't seen any Greek restaurant in Dublin. I also asked around a bit but nobody would know a place
