About Souks Mediterranean Street Food

Pyrmont’s reliable stop for soul-satisfying Greek and Lebanese cooking dishes out generous feasts with genuine family warmth. The kitchen runs on the hands-on care of husband-and-wife owners, grilling skewers side-by-side and turning out plates that diners consistently treat as a home away from home. Theatregoers head in before curtain call at the Lyric Theatre, where waitstaff proactively check showtimes to keep courses moving smoothly. Tables quickly fill with shareable mezze—crispy falafel, creamy babaganoush, and warm pita baskets—alongside citrusy lemon chicken and slow-cooked lamb shoulder sweetened with dates.

  • Paced for showtimes: Servers proactively ask if you are attending a show at the Lyric Theatre, timing courses so you never miss curtain call.
  • Owner-operated kitchen: Husband-and-wife owners cook side-by-side on the line, delivering personal hospitality and homestyle recipes.
  • Feast-ready banquets: Generous multi-dish spreads and multi-course Feed Me banquets come loaded with falafel, dips, and charcoal-grilled meats.

Why Diners Choose Souks Mediterranean

Thoughtfully timed pre-theatre pacing, soulful family recipes, and generous group feasts in Pyrmont.

  • Proactive Pre-Theatre Meal Timing

    The staff actively check whether guests have theatre tickets and time the arrival of dishes accordingly, ensuring a relaxed arrival before curtain call.

    Our waiter was also very thoughtful — he asked whether we had a concert or anything planned afterwards, so they could manage the timing of the service accordingly.

  • Quick, Reliable Bites Near the Lyric

    Located moments from the Lyric Theatre, dinner service delivers fresh Mediterranean platters promptly without cutting into curtain times.

    Service was very friendly and the food came out quickly. I definitely recommend trying this place if you’re seeing a show at the lyric theatre.

  • Abundant Banquets for Group Feasts

    Banquets and generous 'Feed Me' multi-course selections allow travelling parties and dining groups to easily sample a wide spread together.

    I was in a group of 4, so I decided to order the feed me plater, which was absolutely amazing. Every dish tasted beautiful and was made with fresh ingredients. Portion sizes were also very generous for $44.

    The owners work side by side in the kitchen, which creates a welcoming, family-like vibe, and you can truly taste their passion in every dish.

  • Chicken shawarma platter

    The chicken shawarma platter was tender and tasty, we also had the halloumi which was a decent portion size and not super salty.

  • Feed Me

    We got the “Feed Me” and it was a great choice because we could try a bit of everything.

  • Lamb shoulder

    But the lamb shoulder is an absolute must-try. The sweetness from the dates was the highlight of the dish and made it truly memorable.
