Your Trusted Mediterranean Dining Experience in Sydney
Established in 1966, Georges embodies a legacy of authentic Mediterranean hospitality rooted in family tradition. Our journey began with three brothers who transformed Georges Double Bay into a beloved Sydney institution, blending Greek culinary heritage with local Australian ingredients. Today, we continue to celebrate this heritage through vibrant waterfront dining at King Street Wharf, where every meal reflects our commitment to quality, fresh seafood, and warm, familial service.Our menus showcase seasonal produce from trusted NSW providores, prepared using time-honored techniques that honor Mediterranean flavors. From casual lunches to grand celebrations, we create memorable experiences where guests connect over shared plates, signature cocktails, and the joy of coastal living. As custodians of this enduring legacy, we remain dedicated to delivering exceptional service that makes every visitor feel like part of our extended family.
