The brunch options, especially the "Brunch Mania," are highly recommended. Despite the often "noisy" environment, the staff's attentiveness and the flavorful Mediterranean dishes make it a must-visit. Gus, the manager, ensures a welcoming experience.

The $38 per person gets you jalapeno hushpuppies, your choice of 3 main dishes and .25 cent mimosas. The quality of the food is excellent, and brunch is a great way to try lots of things. We had so much leftover will have breakfast tomorrow.

My friend and I had a great lunch, starting with Saganaki. The flaming cheese with pita was perfect though I had to remind the server the yell, “Opa”when he ignited the cheese! The Village Salad was perfect, crowned with a nice block of feta and capers, & no lettuce. My friend had a trio of mini gyros, which included several French fries, exactly as we had in Greece. I don’t live in the area but will definitely make the effort to return. It is worth the trip!
