The stunning restaurant, which is first of its kind in Philadelphia, will transport guests to the Greek Islands with an atmosphere reminiscent of an inviting Mediterranean home & a menu of authentic specialties, simply prepared, that represent the best of Greek cuisine. The restaurant specializes in whole grilled fish which are flown in from the Greek Islands, the shores of Morocco, Tunisia, & Portugal. Guests are able to choose from Estia’s expansive display & watch chefs cook their fish to perfection over a charcoal grill in the sparkling open kitchen.

    Appreciated being seated in a quiet corner. Server Nick was great. Delicious food as always - the salad topped with shrimp, and the eggplant dip were perfect.

    We had a lovely post theater experience. The only down side was that two bussers stood near our table toward the end of our time there and gave dirty looks making us feel.most uncomfortable.

    Restaurant was very busy but we were seated promptly for our reservation. Service was very slow but a friendly waitress. Appetizers came out quickly and were very good. Entrees took a while and the fish dishes were not hot and slightly undercooked. My Lamb chops were tasty but small for $45.00. We have been to the Radnor location several tones and the services and food seemed to be better at that location. Definitely not worth $460 for 4 people.

    Pre Theater. Have dined here many times. Reservation at 5 for 6 PM show. Server when first approaching table confirmed we were going to show Drinks arrived about 520. Appetizers were delicious and timed right. Entree arrived 610. Dessert was rushed and paid bill. Ran out the door at 650 It was Phila Orch at Kimmel Center. They start in time. We did not linger. Asked multiple times about our dinner. Will get a manager in future. Great restaurant, good food, didn’t handle the timing well.

    Filled a note on the reservation form that we had symphony tickets at 7pm….reservations were at 5:15. Spoke with server and we agreed leaving by 6:30 would work well. At 6:40 the server brought the bill and at 6:55 we finalized paying. Two in our party left ahead of the bill arriving. Very disappointed.

    Party of 19. A bit cramped at the table. Attentive service. Food only so so, except for octopus, shrimp, moussaka and grilled lamb chops. Lamb shank disappointing. Not hot enough either. Nevertheless, we had a great time. The sauvignon blanc was delicious. The tempranillo mediocre at best.. Proximity to Academy of music, parking and the Kimmel Center a big plus
