Not really what I expected after seeing the BBQ ads — I thought the food would be served fresh off the grill. Instead, everything was kind of cold, as if it had been taken to the kitchen, chopped up, and left there before being brought to the table. That was a bit disappointing.

Very good Greek food!!!! The mezze was delicious, the chicken kebab dish was a very nice portion as was the moussaka. Dessert was out of this world.

An enjoyable experience here with a friendly and helpful server. The food however while presented well seemed to be missing something that just didn’t provide a wow factor.

Great to have a qualify Greek place on the west side. Menu is a bit overwhelming to navigate. Grilled octopus was standout. Lots more on the menu to try

You HAVE to go for the freshly grilled meat on Sunday. It's by the half pound AFTER cooking, and such a great deal. My friends and I tried everything. The grill master was super nice. We look forward to going again. Well worth the price and no wait on a Sunday at lunch time.

My wife and I live in Topanga Canyon and have been wanting to visit this place for awhile now. Now that we just moved my 82 year old mother from New Jersey to live with us after the passing of my father, we had some added motivation to check this place out. My mother is a legend in the kitchen, so it’s been hard to find Greek food in LA that is up to the proper standards.

All that said, this place was great! We specifically came for the Sunday special BBQ menu and loved the lamb and chicken. The Greek potatoes were some of the best I’ve ever had and the same goes for the octopus. Everything else we ordered was delicious as well.

On top of that, the staff was super welcoming. Being able to speak Greek to the host (I think his name was Dimitri) and our server (Michael) made my mother feel even more at home.

We’re hoping to return sooner than later and I look forward to trying so many of the other items on the menu.
