The atmosphere is good and they have live musicians that sound great. While the food left something to be desired for us (we had just come from an actual Greek vacation so had food experiences to compare it to), that may be because of different regional specialties? Our waiter had a large table to attend to so could not provide us with the timely service we expect.

Consistent, good Greek food with options galore. The veggie platter is amazing and with traditional Greek offerings not found at gyro shops, you can't go wrong. Everything is house made. Worth the price and the sizes are MORE than adequate.
April 2025
I'll start by saying that I love avgolemono soup and that this place makes it well. That said, if you don't explicitly love Greek food, or people in your party are newer to it, some people might find it difficult to find things they like here. We also had the chicken and beef as well as the octopus (something I love and get everywhere when it is available) and while the octopus flavor was good...my stomach hasn't been right since and it has been many days. Hopefully...
