    The food was delicious! We went on a Sunday evening at 6:30pm and the ambiance was just right. Not to crowded or noisy. The host was very attentive. Great experience

    Great place, love the vibe, it remind me of Mykonos. I was expecting to see the traditional big croutons in my Greek salad but it was good anyway. a bit pricey but worth it.

    The food was okay, but the noise level was high, until 7:30pm when a DJ started. At that point, everyone that had been talking loudly had to yell to hear each other. My watch registered a noise level between 88 and 95 DBM. We won't go back.

    Been there several times. Food and service is always great. Sound level is OK until the musicians arrive. Very good music but volume level is so high it is difficult to speak to your tablemates.

    This is not the typical gyros and rice spot - and that's a good thing. I came for lunch and I was not disappointed. Very good food in generous portions, served with enough style to make this a business or special occasion spot. I will certainly return.

    Food was incredible. Restaurant is a little crowded and loud, but we were expecting that so it was fine. Great service too. A little pricey but worth it for a nice meal.

    What a great birthday dinner with a long time friend ! The octopus was tender and juicy - the baby n baby Bibb lettuce salad was more than enough to share and the swordfish special was sublime ! I love the collection of Greek wines - delicious! What a fun night🎉🎂💋
