Demitri's Taverna

Welcome to Demitri’s Taverna – An Award-Winning Taste of Greece in Downtown Livermore, California.

At Demitri’s Taverna, we bring the vibrant spirit of the Mediterranean straight to Downtown Livermore. Family-owned and operated, our taverna is a living tribute to our deep Greek roots and the lively traditions of the modern Greek table.

Our kitchen is guided by a simple philosophy: honor the heritage and never compromise on authenticity. Every dish we serve is built upon the secret, time-tested recipes of our Yiayia. From the rich layering of our traditional mousaka to the perfect char on our souvlaki, you can taste generations of love in every bite. We use imported Greek olive oil, wild oregano, and fresh local ingredients to recreate the true flavors of a seaside village taverna.

Award-Winning Culinary Excellence
Our passion is officially award-winning! Demitri’s Taverna proudly took home the prestigious Judges’ Best Pairing Overall at the Taste Our Terroir competition, wowing the valley with our culinary craftsmanship. We bring that exact same championship caliber of flavor and care to every single plate we serve.

Raise a Glass at Our Full Bar
No Greek celebration is complete without a toast. Our lively full bar features a curated selection of crisp imported Greek wines, regional Livermore Valley favorites, and craft cocktails inspired by Mediterranean botanicals. It’s the perfect spot to meet friends for pre-dinner mezze (appetizers) or unwind after a long week.
