A lovely place to eat in Astoria with a nice menu of Greek inspired dishes. I especially like the hummus, tzatziki, grilled chicken and salads.

From the service to the ambiance all was exceptional. The feta cubes, the kontosouvli, the zucchini curls, the octopus and drinks were all spot. Can’t wait to come again- Bravo! 👍🏽👍🏽
