Our Story

Honoring tradition, embracing freshness

Omilo was born from a friendship. Chef Andreas Skiathos — with over 21 years of culinary expertise — met Piet Brink at a school function, and somewhere between golf course conversations a shared vision took shape.

"To open a Greek restaurant that celebrates the rich flavours of Greece — with a modern twist."

Today, in the heart of Observatory's Riverlands precinct, that vision lives on every plate: time-honoured recipes, the freshest local ingredients, and Greek fusion that turns dinner into a memory.
