    First time dining here and it was amazing! Food was so good and big portions. Sam, our waiter outdid himself. We felt so welcomed and were well taken care of. The atmosphere and the vibe was great! Amazing spot for birthdays or any other occasions! We will definitely be back soon!

    Good atmosphere. Decent food. But the waiter brought me old coffee, which is not allowed (the cappuccino I ordered had the foam left in the cup, which proves that the coffee had been sitting for a while before he brought it to me 🤯). They changed but he said the problem was the coffee maker🤦🏻‍♀️. The waiters did not take the empty plates in time.
    It’s not a bad place, but they need to work on the service.

    Violi, violi, violi. You were a delight. The food, the decor, the vibes ✨ immaculate ✨

    We were greeted by our fantastic server (I feel like his name was George) and served Tzatziki, spicy feta, charred eggplant topped with pine nuts, tarama with black caviar, a local vegetable crudité and a mix of fresh bread and crackers. I would have been satisfied with that as my meal it was delicious! For appetizers, we had the grilled halloumi cheese with chili-honey glaze, red onion, mint 10/10. The crispy zucchini and eggplant was was of the highlights of the night- light, airy and delicious. For dinner we tried the grilled lamb chops with charred eggplant salata, sumac, and smoked salt- it’s fair to argue that nobody does lamb chops like the greeks. We tried the roasted halibut with skordalia, lemon-caper butter-also delightful. We also tried the special for the day wish was Bronzino fish and it tasted like a dress bass- buttery and rich.

    For dessert, we had the deconstructed baklava, the walnut and banana cake and the portokalotopia. The baklava had caramelized filo, pistachio praline, pistachio ice cream and was the clear winner of the night. The portokalotopia had orange syrup cake, white chocolate mousse, greek yogurt ice cream, crispy film-good but not great. Lastly was the banana bread- nothing to write home about.

    My mind keeps coming back to the delicious meal we had here along with the stellar service. I can’t wait to return!

    Lovely place! Bebe here a few times and tried the pasta, tuna tartare, lamb chops, and lamb gyros. All delicious. If you go for dinner and sit inside, it’s a bit too loud to have a normal conversation. If you sit in the garden, the noise is high but you can comfortably talk to your table.
    Overall, will continue coming and bring whoever wants to try!

    I had the pleasure of dining at this upscale Greek restaurant, and I must say, it was a truly memorable experience! From the moment I stepped inside, the ambiance exuded elegance and sophistication, setting the stage for what turned out to be a delightful culinary journey.

    As a seafood lover, I couldn't resist trying their renowned lobster pasta, and it exceeded all my expectations. The dish was a masterpiece - the tender, succulent lobster perfectly complemented the rich and flavorful pasta sauce. Each bite was a heavenly fusion of Mediterranean flavors, leaving me craving more long after the meal ended.

    The restaurant's attention to detail was evident not only in their delectable dishes but also in the top-notch service provided. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and eager to ensure that every aspect of my dining experience was impeccable.

    However, I must acknowledge that the price point of this restaurant is higher than average. While it may not be an everyday dining spot for most, I wholeheartedly believe that the quality of the food and service justifies the expense for a special occasion or when you're in the mood to indulge.

    Moreover, the menu offered an array of authentic Greek delicacies, providing a diverse selection for different preferences and dietary needs. For those looking to explore the richness of Greek cuisine, this restaurant is an excellent choice.

    In conclusion, my visit to this fancy Greek restaurant was an absolute delight. The lobster pasta alone is reason enough to visit, but the overall experience of fine dining and exceptional service makes it a standout destination. Treat yourself to this gastronomic haven when you're in the mood to splurge and savor the best that Greek cuisine has to offer. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
