    This is the third time here. My wife and I felt the past two dinners were much better. The Greek salad was too salty. The lamb chops seemed marinated, not very flavorful. Overall disappointed.

    The food was excellent and the service was even better. Our waiter had a good understanding of the menu and answered all of our questions. Service was timely. We did make a reservation it wasn’t busy when we arrived but when we left the restaurant was packed. We had brunch on a Saturday at 10. I would definitely go back.

    Especially awesome this time - we had little kids, too, and they loved (and were tolerated by staff lol). Pork & chicken souvlaki, Greek salad, spreads and cocktails = amaze

    Overall, we were generally satisfied. The waiter was friendly and attentive. Our appetizers were the Zucchini Fritters and Spanakopita - both were very good and we would order these again. Several dishes included chicken, which were served on skewers. Everyone's chicken was dry and obviously made ahead of time. Next time I would ask about the chicken before ordering it.

    Might be the best branzino I’ve ever had. Beet salad was wonderful. Lots of interesting Greek wines to choose from. Great service. One negative—moussaka was blended mush, needs a complete makeover, in our opinion.

    The food is simply amazing. Everything on the menu is delicious; however, every time I come here, the service is horrible. The waiters will ignore you and not check in on you.
