Came back for the first time after they moved to a new location. Tried new things this time! Got a platter for 4 to share with. Really liked the moussaka and lamb! The salad is nice and fresh too. My friends liked the calamari a lot. Their tzatziki is so good! Love it! Everything was good not nit surprisingly good, still would recommend friend to try Greek food here
Wow was I impressed with this restaurant! The staff was so incredibly nice and the food was off the charts! I had the lamb chops medium rare and they were the best tasting lamb chops I've EVER had!!! The cook and the seasoning were absolute perfection. We shared the flaming mozzarella for an app that was truly delicious. I would highly recommend eating here. You won't be disappointed....I promise!
It’s so beautiful there, really friendly and disciplined staff. The chicken souvlaki was great. Lamb shank was a over priced. Three star because the potatoes were super salty, a pinch of salt is understandable but this much of salt was a surprise for such a well rated restaurant. I had a good experience because it represents Greece but probably not the best choice of food for a Greek restaurant. They can do better on the dishes for such a great place, but the tase was not extraordinary. The menu was printed on regular piece of paper by a default font Microsoft word, absolute minimum effort, really?! It needs a better one.
Update on November 17, 2022: My statement is pretty clear all the time. The reason why we are so mad and disappointed and left a 3 stars review is because: Our server that night, after we found that parchment paper from our food, he DID say sorry to us, but he DIDN’T take the INITIATIVE to say anything about something will be complimentary, or what the thingparchment paper that my friend ate and found was. He DIDN’T take any INITIATIVES to SAY something, such as “sorry about the experience you encountered, we will offer you…” Or even easier “we will make sure that will not happen again.” Are these really hard to say? We want to see their attitude and hear about the explanation about what they would like do to solve this problem, but they didn’t. Taking the initiatives and having communication with your customers are important. I can apologize for my friend’s aggressive tone when she asking what the thing was in our rice. But we are the one who almost swallowed the parchment paper, not anyone else. Here is my apology to the server for my friend: I am sorry for her aggressive tone that might made you uncomfortable, we were upset at that time, because my friend almost swallowed it. The reason why I left a 3 stars review and described the facts about our experience was because I wanted to see their improvement, but now i just received more arguments from it. But I do need to apologize for some improper wording underneath, because I m not good at using a second language. That’s it. ==================== Met up with friends here once and ordered calamari, meat ball and creek style fries from happy hour, and two types of souvlaki from the regular menu. The food was good, but they insisted on serving all the dishes at the same time, but lacked a heater to keep the food warm, resulting in all the dishes being cold, even the fries and calamari. The service was slow, perhaps because the host put us in a seat above the steps and our waiter never found out when we needed help. But the most disappointing thing was that we found a small piece of plastic or parchment paper mixed with our food, and my friend almost swallowed it. When we told the waiter about this, his first reaction was to try to destroy it and apologize to us in a careless manner without any explanation. We all thought this was ridiculous, and although the waiter eventually removed the dish where the plastic piece was found from our bill, he never informed us of any action taken by the restaurant from the beginning to the end. All of us work in the hospitality industry as well and this is a failure in customer service, whether it is a casual apology or staying silent at all times and not informing the guest that the restaurant is responsible for their problem and what action will be taken.
An okay Greek restaurant with a beautiful interior, and great staff. Unfortunately, it is over priced. The food was good, but the portions were much too small, and the quality did not make up for it. The restaurant is trying to go for a more fine dining experience by changing their style and switching to this new location, but unless they do something about the food, I don’t see this lasting long.
Excellent food. Just as good if not better in some cases than what I had in Greece. Service was very good too. Attentive. However it was a bit puzzling that they changed our waiter after we ordered without informing us... Kid-friendliness: Quiet restaurant. I wouldn't bring young kids there. Wheelchair accessibility: There are stairs to get to most of the tables.
Best Greek food on the island. We tried their amazing octopus that was a special the night we were in. We also got the flaming cheese for an appetizer which was also great and put on an awesome show! For the main course we shared their delicious Lamb shank . Staff was amazing very recommended. I'll definitely be back.
Quaint decor, and lots of seating. The food was better than expected, and the Greek ribs and ekmek were excellent, fresh and tasty ekmek is really hard to get right. The service was friendly, welcoming and efficient no wait without a reservation tonight at 6-ish. Our server John was pleasant, attentive, light-hearted, and helpful. All in all, surprisingly good Greek food experience. $$$
My friends took me there to celebrate my 41 b-day. The ambiance is so welcoming and the server, Dimitri hopefully I'm not wrong, so friendly, chatty, welcoming and professional. My friends and i had chicken soup, saganaki flambée, and "Appetizer for 2" platter. Although it says for two people it was big enough to feed the three of us. Tiramisù was my choice as "b-day cake", so refreshing and tasty. Well, everything was delicious, I really enjoyed every single bite. Love this place and can't wait to return!
Absolutely amazing greek food, I love this place! Very cool greece vibe restaurant setting, friendly staff, delicious food. A retreat that makes you feel like your on a mini vacation! This place never disappoints.
