Greek Enigma - Great food at good value

Both Enigma in Brighton le Sands and Castle Tower Piazza have received rave reviews.  My several visits have confirmed that they indeed have something special to offer.

2 course lunch plus a drink for $30 is absolutely fantastic and a rare find.

Nicely presented and carefully cooked entree

                                                 Calamari - tender, juicy and crispy


                                                                Pan-fried chorizo with vegetable stack

2 dips (cucumber yoghurt & roe) with pita bread.
 A glass of wine or cool beer

Options for Mains : 


                                   Grilled Barramundi with crispy potato and vegetables - freshness!


                                Spaghetti marinara - gernerous serving of seafood and the sauce has the right balance


                                                           Slow cooked lamb is tender and yummy


        


Just between us, if you happen to be dining at the Piazza, just to let you know that this Greek restaurant is a much preferable place than the over priced and mediocre Italian restaurant two doors away.  

How does it compare with another Greek Restaurant in Sydney CBD --  Xanthi? http://ausletters.blogspot.com.au/2012/05/xanthi-bar-restaurant-greek-cuisine.html  


In short, Enigma's style is freshness and simplicity. However, it's not a fair comparison because there are more options for dinner and the pricing was different.
