    Great place. All the food we ordered was nicely seasoned and cooked. The meals were generously proportioned without being a ridiculous amount of leftovers (saganaki, salmon taramasa, mousaka, gyros, blackened salmon, chicken, and a pastry with custard and strawberries). Servers were friendly, respectful, and efficient. The patio was lovely. The patio chairs were just passable comfort-wise, but on par with what you find at other restaurants.

    The food is good. Love the zucchini chips. Also delicious salad and fish. The initial service was a little slow and the noise level is pretty high.

    Our server, Kaddie, was fantastic ! She helped explain all of the wonderful gluten free options for me! The zucchini chips were fantastic, as were the trio of Greek spreads, served with gluten free pita bread!!! The chicken souvlaki was so juicy and tender!! Would hands down go back and enjoy the delicious food!

    We dined outside on a pleasant evening. Food was good. Service was friendly and efficient. We had a selection of three of their appetizer spreads, which is a nice option. Also a nice option: house wines by the carafe at affordable prices. We had the rose, which we enjoyed. My wife had the lemon chicken and liked it. I tried the vegetable pastitsio, which was very flavorful. Overall, a lovely dinner at a reasonable price.
