Etheus is a cafe in Bondi Beach with outdoor seating. It hasn't yet been confirmed as dog-friendly, so it's best to check with the venue before visiting.
Etheus is exactly what’s been missing at Bondi Beach - a Greek feast that has freshness in mind and a generous serving in every dish. Great food, decor, service and view of Bondi Beach. What more could you ask for? I love going to restaurants and tasting food that I know I can never replicate at home, which is why I’ll be back very soon. Our waitress was attentive and all staff who served us were knowledgeable, non intrusive during service and served us with a smile. We tried the $79 feast and it was well worth it. There was so much food and to be honest we should have saved half of it in a takeaway container, but it was just too tasty to save for the next day. My favourites were the Kleftiko - lamb shoulder topped with garlic and oregano, Yemista - one big red pepper stuffed with beef mince, rice and vegetables, and the fresh Greek salad. To top it off the dessert Bougasta - filo pastry with custard in orange sauce was the perfect way to finish a well curated and generous banquet. It was well balanced - light and crispy, not too sweet and not too heavy. Local Wednesday is a fantastic way to engage us locals and we will be back to try more on the menu. I can’t wait to come back to try the octopus, lobster pasta, grilled snapper and all your desserts - in particular the Greek donuts! Couch is very comfortable too
Schmick? In Bondi? Yep, putting this upscale cali concept in the place where even the waste water can be effectively snorted is a no brainer. Greek in Sydney is so now. The fit out is real money and the food team know what's what. I wouldn't say the food is 5* for the price. The chook is terrific, but the octopus missed it's turn in the tenderiser. The rest were all a solid passing grade. The drinks service is slow and lacks customer orientation, and divorcing the floor team from the drinks team sounds good, but never works in hospo. The music was loud and the team realised that the locals night crowd are, well, more sensitive to loud noises, and trimmed it perfectly. I'll return to see if I give the rating a bump, so to speak.
The food at Etheus is excellent! It is easily keeping up with the group of Greek restaurants that have opened up in Sydney lately. If you want to enjoy a lovely Greek lunch by the water, then this is your place! We had a wonderful à la carte lunch where we enjoyed dishes including the fava, tirokafteri, spanakopita, anginares, saganaki, fava, pork, market fish, helopites with goat and dessert of Loukoumades, bougatsa and Greek yoghurt. Food was amazing. In the spirit of transparency the goat dish was too dill and lemon heavy. Would skip. And the loukoumades were too dense and not sweet at all. Would skip as well. But everything else was excellent. Including the cocktails! Hostess was amazing. Remaining service was a mixed bag. The team seemed bored to be at work. Not sure if this was because it was a rainy day and the restaurant was quiet…it was a little off putting. But not enough to detract from a lovely meal.
Was blown away by my dining experience at Etheus. Every single dish was so tasty and top quality. Service was impeccable as well. Must order is the chicken - that was a highlight. Sometimes Greek food can be too salty and overpowering but everything was done perfectly. Would definitely be back. This trumps all other Greek restaurants in Sydney
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ETHEUS – SIMPLY OUTSTANDING! We hosted our Kemenys Christmas Party at Etheus Bondi Beach, and I honestly can’t rate this place highly enough. From the moment we arrived, Aasha’s attention to detail was exceptional. She organised every element of the night beautifully — smooth, thoughtful, and incredibly well-coordinated. The food was superb — fresh, generous, and absolutely delicious. The beverage service was flawless, quick, friendly, and constant throughout the evening. A huge shoutout to Lily, who oversaw the night with absolute ease. Always smiling, always in control — she was fantastic. We missed Jules, who had the night off, but she was definitely part of the spirit of the place. And Matt… what a star! He ran the bar like Tom Cruise in “Cocktail” — pure entertainment and skill. The guests loved him. Every single one of our guests had a brilliant time. The atmosphere, the hospitality, the execution — everything was first-class. If you’re planning an event, dinner, or celebration, Etheus should be at the top of your list. Couldn’t recommend it more highly!
