A really nice restaurant with a great vibe. They have outdoor, indoor and bar seating. We ordered several appetizers: octopus, calamari, fried smelts and some sort of feta cheese party. All of it was delicious. For our entrees I had the 20 oz. Robert served with mushrooms, we also had a beet salad as well as a Chicken kabob. The food was really good. The service was excellent as well. We will definitely come back to try other items

Outstanding customer service! I ordered takeout from Lantern Point Taverna, and my salad was missing the grilled chicken. When I called to let them know, they immediately offered to deliver the chicken right to my door with no hesitation at all. That level of care is rare, and I truly appreciate it. The staff is incredibly kind, and this experience has made me a loyal customer. I’ll definitely be ordering again!

Had a delicious dinner here with my family. Service was very attentive and gave wonderful recommendations. We tried the eggplant and zucchini chips which were crispy. The three dip platter was delicious, we had the best tzatziki that we had in a while. All of the meat was delicious but the bifteki was the star of the show! Portions were huge and we will have leftovers for tomorrow. Absolutely would recommend this spot!

This was our first visit and we loved the interior and set up of this casual dining space that felt like being in Greece but in a homey and relaxed atmosphere. Very welcoming.
Our server was enthusiastic, accommodating and very attentive which only enhanced the experience.
The Mykonos beer was the perfect cool temp and went down easy. A great reommendation and my new favorite beer.
The 3 dips and pita triangles we had as an appetizer were very good, and would have loved to see a few more olives included.
The Mousakka and Pastchio main dishes were both tasty and we enjoyed the side of green beans with tomatoes. I was hoping the Mousakka would knock my socks off, and while good, I did expect a bit more flavor and freshness. The portion size was generous.
Service was fantastic.
The entire establiment was clean, including the restrooms, and we would love to return and try some other menu items.
On street parking and outside dining option.

The way this manager speaks to his employees is disgusting. There is no reason to scream at your employees like that. Myself and other customers were concerned for the young waitress's safety. It's terrible to treat ANY ONE like that. I rated the service 5 stars because the servers have always been great! But the food and atmosphere were ruined by the manager. Do better.

Warm bread is placed on the table within minutes of sitting down. Four Greek salads are offered. We chose the Apollo which is enough for four hungry people. We also had the beet salad which was perfect. Other appetizers were the eggplant chips and zucchini chips. An entrees of spinach pie was disappointing. The half chicken was excellent as well as the shellfish pasta which had 3 jumbo shrimp, two pieces of lobster, little neck clams and mussels in a spicy a and tasty red sauce. The chicken brest with spinach was 2 large pieces and made for a good lunch as well. The kids chicken picatta unfortunately had no flavor. The fish and chips was tasty and, again, a huge portion. The three meat platter was perfect but too large and required a take home box

Our waiter (Jake? Jakob?) was awesome, very polite and efficient. Best part of the night.
That was about it.
We started with the skordalia, a potato, olive oil, olives, lemon and garlic appetizer.
I had this dish in Greece, but the one we were served consisted of mashed potatoes done in a blender and almost liquified, with vinegar added, 3 slices of garlic and ONE olive. We ate the Pita bread because we were starving!
For entrees, I had the Moussaka, that was so bland it felt like a Diner (not Greek Diner) mashed potatoes with salt, browned beef with nothing, and a few slices of Eggplant thrown in the middle. No cinnamon, no nutmeg, no garlic, no Allspice, nothing that would make it greek. It came with overcooked green beans on a sweet tomato sauce. I was hungry and tried to eat the moussaka, but could not even eat the green beans.
My 1st friend had a single platter Chicken, the onions and peppers were not cooked, and the chicken was bland and dry. She asked us if we would like to finish her dish.
To be fair, our third friend had the shrimp appetizer for dinner and was happy with it.
We had a reservation for 5:30, and by 6:30 the owner starts cleaning our tablecloth and seems very nervous, drops multiple of our cutlery on the floor and then my friend's phone too, on a mission to get us out. She then asks us to leave the table (friends were still finishing their wine) and take care of the bill at the counter. We were there for less than an hour.
Not coming back. Not recommending it either. Feel free to try it on your own.
