Parea - Illovo iNingizimu Afrika

Parea is located off the busy Oxford road. Only limited street parking is available unless you are willing to pay R30 to park in the parking lot available further up the road. We ordered a vegetarian platter to share between 3 people and it was affordable at R59 per person. The food was delicious but the presentation could be improved. The restaurant has a cozy feel but the decor could use some updating. Overall it was a great Saturday night out with the addition of the live dancing, breaking plates, and setting fires!

I personally think this is one of JHB hidden gems.<br/ <br/ Not everyone know about it and they are great.<br/ <br/ The food is great and the service is not bad.

The most authentic Greek restaurant in Jozi (to my mind). Kitch (but cute) Greek decor and a wide variety of authentic Greek dishes. Always a buzzing atmosphere. Look out for the belly dancing!

Parea never seems to disappoint. Service is always friendly and efficient no matter how busy they are. Highly recommend the beef souvlaki (the lamb was over cooked and slightly dry) and vegetarian platters. But overall, everything on the menu is worth trying at least once! Bookings definitely essential! Great for family events/functions too

Went there for a friend's graduation. And oh my word I was not disappointed! The restaurant is beautiful! The atmosphere is very typically Greek, and the food is mouthwateringly good! Definite must if you're into authentic Greek cuisine!
