I am not sure why this place has such high ratings as the food is subpar.
However, I will start off by saying that the service was really good and the speed in which they served us despite there being a party of over 12 behind us and a full house was superb. Absolutely zero complaints about the service.
We ordered the following:
1x Spicy Calamari
1x 5 Lamb Chops
2x Roast Lamb
1x Greek Ribs
1x Garlic Butter Prawns
First off, the spicy calamari was an interesting idea and the flavour was okay. But the serving size was absolutely horrendous. I do not think I have seen that small of a serving of calamari EVER and wherever I have went to dine and ordered calamari. For $16.75, the calamari is highway robbery and would stray me away from ever visiting here again or suggesting anyone to order it.
The lamb chops were okay! Flavour was so so, but they were beautifully cooked and well plated. I would potentially order this again if I ever were to come here, but seasoning could use some work.
Roast lamb was good for what it was. Not really much I can complain about. Probably the highlight of the night out of all dishes. Well done.
Greek ribs.... now I usually order greek ribs at other places and always enjoy it. The ribs here were very bland. Lacking lots of seasoning and that signature zest that many greek places offer. As disappointing as the calamari was and I am glad I did not order this personally. I see why it was hard to find amongst reviews on google.
Garlic butter prawns were actually properly cooked and tasted wondeful. This was 1/2 things that were okay during this dinner.
I would suggest exploring other dinner options or greek restaurants if you are looking for greek as there are better options in the lower mainland.

My family and I love this gem of a restaurant! The food is so delicious and fresh. The platters easily feed 4. We love the kalamari, lamb chops, moussaka and tzatziki dip. The chicken souvlaki is so tender and juicy, I was pleasantly surprised. My daughter just inhales the pita with tzatziki. I can’t wait to go back to try more menu items.
The staff are so friendly and attentive, always smiling and welcoming. And the ambiance is so nice with lovely views of New West waterfront and the Fraser River. They get quite busy, even on weeknights and it’s easy to see why. Highly recommend this place if you like Greek food.
Beautiful service stunning view the Most amazing real Greek food

It is my New Westminster go to when hosting others. Long a staple the food and service continue to be very good.
While sitting along the window is great, at my request they set up our large table in perfect viewing for the Blue Jays game.

Me and my girlfriend ordered few dishes like calamari, garlic shrimp, lamb chops and lamb roast. I must say that the food quality was impeccable, service was quick and friendly. I personally loved the lamb roast, it was juicy and cooked to the perfection. Not to mention, the dessert was as delicious as it came. We will definitely come back again.

First of all the owners were very approachable ,kind and accommodating to me and my entire family. Their service was impeccable, especially with their entire staff that took care of our table. The wait time for what we ordered for 9 people and the amount was very quickly brought to us, which was quite impressive. The entire restaurant was very nicely set up,the mood and vibe was really comfortable. The menu was really appetizing and had a good selection of things, especially for kids aswell. Thank you Lena and your entire staff that made our experience quite enjoyable. This place is a go to spot for any occasion and for anyone. Definitely I would recommend this gem to anyone and you will not regret.

Nice restaurant with delicious food. Service can improve- most likely under staffed , very hard to get someone’s attention. I personally found the place a bit noisy but that’s me. The lamb chops were excellent and I highly recommend it. We were lucky to catch some belly dancing. The seating is a little awkward as they have benches which are unmovable so makes it very very difficult to get in and out
