Alpha Restaurant
Moussaka of Eggplant

Alpha Restaurant, occupying the remnants of a 1880s church on Castlereagh Street, is famous for Greek Chef Peter Conistis’ signature recipe: Moussaka of Eggplant with Seared Scallops and Tarama. His gorgeously luxe moussaka of just-cooked scallops layered between slices of creamy eggplant is a holy trinity of heavenly flavors that harmonize perfectly. The surrounds are as "Grecian modernism" as the menu, with fishing net-inspired hanging lights and a dramatically battered Greek-inscribed wall that looks the result of an archaeological dig. The large, high-ceilinged space includes banquette seating, an artisan food store and a casual cafe in front, with a high-stooled counter and bar in back that accommodates early evening mezze nibbles and lunchtime displays of Greek comfort food.
