  1. The food was very fresh and atmosphere very friendly and casual.
  2. The fish was kind of dry, the server didn't even ask how I wanted my salmon cooked which was a bit on the dry side.
  3. Had the fresh grilled fish and it was great.
  4. The veggies were fresh and tasty.
  5. love to mix and match diferent types of foods so the Greek Apitiser sampler is a wonderful counter to say grilled Tuna or a stuffed chicken brest.
  6. have been going to this place since it opened and have never had a bad meal or service.
  7. If you're planning to visit that restaurant, I would strongly recommend having 2 appertizers instead of a full meal.
  8. Highly recommend the seafood!
  9. If you like seafood and/or Greek food you will love this place though it is not limited to just these things.

Terrible, terrible service!

by Nojinnyc

First time at this restaurant with my wife and 14 month old. Waiting for ever to have our order taken. The waiter came back twice to ask if our drinks had arrived. Then after waiting over an hour for our food, no one seemed to have any idea what the status was. The table of 4 beside us left, then the table of 2 across from us, then we finally gave up and left as well.

I give them a pass :)

by gregcsnyc

I thought the service was pretty good. they take care of the little things like bringing you water, pouring your beer for you, etc. The portions were a bit skimpy. But, I give them credit for remembering the old fashioned customs that so many restaurants don't seem to have a clue about anymore. Booze was the real deal, not watered down. I'd go back.

  • Pros: Good Service
  • Cons: Portions a little skimpy

lame

by balutanski

my experience was bad all around. service, food, bar, price. the hostess forgot about us and we sat at the bar for 30 minutes. the service was hurried and unprofessional. they didn;t even have a clue about wine or the menu. our waitress was chinese! and she could barely speak english (at a greek place!) skip it.
