Cocktails were excellent. Some of the best I’ve had in Stamford. Food was fresh and yummy. Service was on point.

Good authentic Greek dishes, among the normal American Greek dishes. Both are fantastic! But if you're interested in trying something you'd have in Greece, Moussaka here is traditional.

I took my motorcycle for a short ride from NYC to Stamford, CT yesterday. I got to Stamford super hungry, and felt like having food that I'm familiar with, so Greek cuisine was chosen, and I'm so happy I chose this spot.
The restaurant is really beautiful with authentic vibe of Grace. Not just tacky blue and white colors, but they were able to capture the Greek vibe.
The sr The service was impeccable, the server had wide knowledge of the food and the culture. He was professional and friendly.
I would recommend to check it out.

Ate so quickly because it was so good that I ended not having full plate pictures. But nothing speaks louder than empty plates at a restaurant :D.
We had the paella which was well cooked with soft rice pasta and mussels with shrimp and squid. Mussels were easy to separate from shell and nothing was overcooked. The Athenian salad was delicious as well with halloumi. Lastly we had a few souvlaki kebabs of pork which was perfectly seasoned and fell easily off the skewer. Would highly recommend as a restaurant to visit and server was kind enough to give our mini golden-doodle some water.

The service was great and the ambiance was nice, but unfortunately the food was very disappointing. The octopus dish came with beans, which was an odd pairing and didn’t work at all. The saganaki was also a huge letdown, if you’ve ever had it at Cava (the restaurant), this version will disappoint you tremendously. Even the pita bread tasted store-bought rather than fresh. We were visiting from out of town and had high hopes, but sadly the food just wasn’t good.

Lovely spot, likely deserves 5 stars, but it was my first time. Great food, nice atmosphere reminiscent of a Greek tavern in the Aegean.

First of all, dinner was a blast. I don't know if it happens every evening (we were there on a Saturday night) but on the hour they had a plate breaking ceremony that got the whole place chanting, twirling napkins and smashing dishes (they had special plaster ones made just for this). Great atmosphere.
Now, however, for the food... The positive: very good taramosalata. The negative: very, very dry pastitsio (which is my go-to at Greek restaurants). Perhaps the grilled items were better, but I can only comment on what I had. I would say go for a fun time, and perhaps try something other than what I had.

Daniella our waitress was amazing! So sweet she recommended a drink called katerini and my girl the creten crush both were amazing. She was so fun when they started singing and breaking plates. Fun place, food was great.
Definitely going back.

The second I walked into Kouzina, I was visually and physically transported to Greece. There was an aura in the air that was very reminiscent of traditional Greek festivities and immediately drew me in. I was greeted by a handsome young chap named Nathan who reminded me so much of my brother. I am Greek. I sat in the bar as I was alone and two bartenders who I will never forget named Sunil and Briana were the absolute best. Sunil, the Egyptian stallion as I nicknamed him provided a service that was on par with the best in the industry. The only thing better than his devilishly good looks was his attention to detail. While I enjoyed my time with Sunil, Briana was the highlight of my night. Fine shyt as I came to nickname her, provided with unmatched recommendations and was so hospitable and made me feel so at home. The Mykonos Mule was a stand out for me absolutely enticing and reminded me of being in the beach on a hot day in Greece, hopefully with Briana. The kotopolo (however the hell you spell it, I am Greek and I can't spell Greek food for shit) was fantasic, my sincere compliments to the Chef. Another stand out for me was Christian (also known as Sebastian). While in the middle of a busy night, somehow found the time to speak to me and make small talk and was a joy to be around. Luis was also such a friendly soul who made sure the restaurant was still running effectively sometimes carrying 6 dishes at a time. It was actually kind of impressive. I also want to give a quick shout out to Chelsea who appeared to be the manager as the black blazer was a dead giveaway. In the middle of an extremely busy night she was able to go to each and every table and ensure we were having a positive experience. That is not easy and wanted to give her a special shout out, its clear she loves what she does and is dedicated to her customers. All in all Kouzina was an extremely positive experience that transported me back home. I applaud everyone who made this wonderful experience so memorable.
