My husband and I have been coming here about 10 yrs or so! Tonight, Louisa was our waitress. As always, the food is great! Louisa was excellent and very personable! The owner is awesome too! We always have a great meal! We have been to Greece, and the food here makes us feel like we r there again!
Food may be good enough but they are charging 3.5% more to use a debit or credit card. It is illegal in the state of New Jersey to charge that on a debit card. The woman at the counter claimed it was the way the machine was set up, but they said it up that way. They must think we are all stupid. Also, the governor capped it at 3%. it also needs to be posted outside as well as inside and on the receipt and it is not. The prices on the menu are supposed to be credit card prices only and if you pay cash, you are supposed to get a discount for cash for using cash. I will not return for this reason. For excellent Greek food that does not charge any fees whether you use a credit card or not try the Greek spot in Manalapan. It's way better.

Very good Greek food in a cozy small restaurant (about 12 tables), located in a strip mall on Applegate Rd.
After Taverna Ouzo closed its doors (coincidentally, it was located on the same Applegate Rd.) quite a few years ago, there weren't any authentic Greek restaurants in the area, so we are happy with our new finding.
Faros (apparently, owned, managed, and served by people of Greek descent) serves fully authentic and deliciously prepared Greek cuisine. The menu is extensive, there is a variety of choices for every taste and like. The food is fresh, the grilled dishes are thoroughly prepared to perfection. The hot appetizers platter Zesta pikilia tis pareas (assortment of tiropitakia, keftedakia, dolmadakia, spanakopitakia, and gigantes) is ideal for two people and is offered for a budget-friendly price of $20.5.
The main courses, both traditional Greek specialties, souvlaki, and gyro platters are on the bigger side, definitely guaranteeing a need for "box it up, please".
The overall pricing is - in today's day and age - certainly decent.
If you like Greek food, this is a must try. I've been here several times and have never been disappointed.

The reason for 3 stars are bones fragments in the burger and sand on the lettuce. They have to wash greens better.
