After coming to live in Melbourne, this is the best authentic restaurant that makes genuine skewers with the original herbs I can remember from Greece. Meat that melts in your mouth. I travel at least 2 – 3 tines a week over 20 km each way to have my pork skewers with pitta.

Lovely food and vibe here. Had a really nice Saturday lunch of souvlakis, greek salad, chips and tatziki. Really friendly staff too. I’d definitely return. It’s casual and can be a little busy at certain hours it seems but in a decent way that we kind of enjoyed.

Tried this place after reading a review. I got a pork and a chicken souvlaki. Both were tasty but the pork was great. The flat bread was nice and plenty of meat. I found the bread way too small and the sauces a little over powering, but not too bad. Maybe a bit overpriced for $ 8 but if you are in the area, you could do worse.
The staff were very friendly and helpful and would go back if I was driving past.

Oakleigh is the new Little Athens of Melbourne and Kalimera make the best authentic Greek Chicken & Pork Souvlaki in town. The Chips are also fabulous being hot, crisp and flavoured perfectly with the right amount of salt & oregano.
Best of all… it’s cheap!!!
Only $ 8 for a Souvlaki. Get there!

My favourite place to get a feed with my mates weekly. The platters will satisfy your appetite for a while. The atmosphere is very cool and relaxed and the staff are super friendly especially the the 10⁄10 girl taking the orders. I recommend a chicken, pork or mixed platter. Prices are excellent for what you get served. There is parking very close by as well.

This is the ambrosia of the Gods. This is heaping portions of tender, flavorful meat from a spit. This is souvlaki done right. Kalimera offers a simple menu — pork, chicken, chips, lamb meatballs, and this gift from the heavens: spicy cheese. From what I have described, it sounds like a typical, dirty, streetside fast food joint. But, no. It is actually very nicely decorated inside with family photographs that communicate the love and tradition that goes into cooking greek food. I am partial to the chicken with the Greek salad. The portions are so large, one plate can easily be split in two. And please, for the love of Zeus, get the spicy cheese. Cash only.

Unique and special, this souvlaki place is worth traveling to Oakleigh for. Their speciality is pork souvlaki, which is amazing but the chicken is also very good. The chicken tends to be more tender, though the pork has a certain indescribable quality that makes it pretty addictive as well. Unlike most other Melbourne souvlaki joints, this place does not have lamb in the usual way. Instead, it has lamb mince. I haven’t tried it, the pork and chicken is so good that I haven’t felt the need to try the lamb.
You can get the traditional pita wrap or the platter. The platter has tons of meat, fries, and some pita. The platter is amazing, especially if you are sharing since it is on the large side. I also heavily recommend the spicy cheese dip and their other dips look great as well.
In short, Kalimera is a true original in a neighbourhood chock full of good souvlaki places. It is well worth the trip and it is a really good value for the money.

I had the Pork Gyros Platter and it’s huge!! Tasty pork gyros, chips, tomato, onion, tzatziki (the best!), soft warm bread. It’s very large and very filling but so so yummy! Plus the service is incredible, helpful nice staff and fast! I will be back! I will add it’s not healthier to have the platter as it has chips and is so big but it is a treat and maybe good to share!

Pork or chicken gyros for the win. Deceptively filling things and am told… are the more ‘traditional’ souvlaki.
