Wonderful, authentic Greek. Dined with my wife and mother to celebrate my wife's birthday. For apps, had the Greek salad, grilled shrimp and scallops. For entrees had the whole Lup de Mer, whole snapper and lamb chops. Also had a Sterling Sauv Blanc that was reasonably priced. All dishes were excellent. The staff was knowledgeable, courteous and checked in on us regularly without being intrusive.

For those who may be deterred by this out of the way location, it is absolutely worth the trip. While you may get exceptional service at many of Manhattan's finer restaurants, it's a rarity to have the combination of excellent food, service and a sincere, warm, family-friendly atmosphere. I must have gotten 3 handshakes from various members of the staff / management on our way out.

Truly amazing dining experience and I can't wait to go back.

A MUST GO TO. Love it! it doesn't get much better than this, its new, its very classy and the fireplace has great charm. The service is 6 star and the food perfect. The outdoor spot upstairs for the better weather is wonderful as if you are on the Greek Isles. I live in Manhattan but this is one of our favorite places and its worth the trip over the bridge. There are not too many Greek restaurants in Manhattan as good as this, I can only think of one other. Try this place on a Thursday night also when they have live Greek music.

A Hidden Gem!. Aegean Cove has to have been one of the best dining experiences of my life. Not only does it have amazing food, but the ambience is great as well. The owners are really friendly and the waitstaff attentive. What I really appreciate is a wine menu that goes beyond Italy and France and has a nice selection of Greek wine to accompany their food. I highly recommend the grilled octopus and the whole, grilled fish. They have to be, bar none, the best! What's even better is that the prices are quite fair for seated fine dining and the size of the meal is proportionate. I would come back and would highly recommend this restaurant!
