The most unprofessional restaurant experience I’ve ever had. We came with my family and my 14-pound certified service Maltipoo. The staff were wonderful — friendly, professional, and even some guests played with our dog. The food looked great, the atmosphere was pleasant, and everything was perfect… until the administrator managed to destroy it all. Forty minutes into our meal, after food was already served, she barged in, interrupted us mid-bite, and told us to leave because of the dog — despite our legal right to be there. No apology, no polite solution, just humiliation. This could have been handled with grace by first speaking directly with us, offering a respectful compromise, and explaining to her staff in advance how such situations should be handled. Instead, she ruined the restaurant’s beautiful impression, the food, the service, and our family lunch. Our food to-go was inedible after the long trip home. First time in my life being kicked out of a restaurant. Absolutely unacceptable.

Beautiful restaurant and great service. Loved food chips, scallop & phyllo filled with cream desert. Tried 2 different cocktail and did not enjoy.

Love this place. Food, drinks and service all really good. There was a two piece band playing and the music was WAY too loud. Hard to have a conversation to be honest. No need for the music to be that loud.

Beautiful restaurant, food was a little pricey. The portions were smaller than anticipated.  However, everything was delicious..

This is a beautiful place. The food is more fusion rather than pure Greek but it is still delicious. The zucchini fritter appetizer was a hit, my shrimp dinner was overcooked and tough but everyone else's (6 people - salmon, lamb, etc) was wonderful. The only issue is the music. A Friday night and at 730 a band came on and the noise level amped up to having to scream to talk and be heard. In a fine dining situation (it's pricey) this shouldn't be the case - music should be background and barely audible. This could have been 5 stars, but I like to be able to converse with my dinner companions and we couldn't do that.

We came with a group of friends to celebrate my sister's birthday, and we were lucky enough to have Gabby as our server. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and gave us so many great recommendations. Gabby is a bonus server because she's also a bartender—she even made us a special round of martinis that were to die for! Everything from the appetizers to the desserts was delicious. The service, the drinks, the food—it was all top-notch. Can't wait to go back!

We had a wonderful dinner last night at Naxos. The food, drinks, service were all exceptional. Excellent Greek food, authentic flavors, the horta was probably the best I have had outside of Greece. The whole grilled fish and the galactoboureko rolls are both a must try!

We had a really wonderful experience. Greek/Mediterranean is the most delicious and healthiest food out there..... we all enjoyed our meal We shared the Horitiki salad and the complementary hummus, olives, and radishes. We were four people – one had the filet mignon, one had the Bronzino, one had the shrimp with eggplant, stack, and one head the grilled and sliced octopus Everyone loved their food and the presentation was beautiful as well . My husband, who had heard about zero alcohol beer was interested in trying one but said it it's going to be hard to find a place that serves it. Sure enough they had an Italian brand of zero alcohol beer available, and my husband enjoyed it. And an added plus, we got to meet the lovely owner Barbara as she was setting up for a birthday party the next day in their private party room. This place is not even a year old and it is all the rave ! We will definitely be back

This was our second time dining here in just two weeks—the food is truly outstanding, and the chef deserves major credit. Unfortunately, both visits were marked by disappointing service, with the second time being even worse than the first. On our most recent visit, we found ourselves refilling our own wine and water while eight servers stood along the back wall chatting, not paying attention to guests. The staff didn't check in on us throughout the meal unless they were delivering food, and no one cleared plates between courses or once items were finished. These are basic service standards that should be second nature at a restaurant of this caliber. The service simply does not match the quality of the food or the elegant ambiance. It's clear the team needs stronger training and guidance—from periodic table check-ins to proper clearing and attentiveness throughout the meal. If the front-of-house operations were brought up to the same standard as the kitchen, this place would be truly top-tier. Right now, the lack of attention to service is unfortunately dragging down the overall experience.

Insanely good! Everything from the moment you sit down is delicious. You start off with olives, hummus, bread, olive oil. We always do tapas style i.e. we order a bunch of appetizers because there are way too many things that we want to sample. The grilled octopus is Fresh and tender, and off the charts delicious. All of the Greek spreads are seasoned perfectly. We have tried every salad there, and all of the salads are dressed nicely. I would say the only salad that I would not order again is the Greek Caesar although the “croutons “ made it worthwhile. The tuna tartare, the shrimp cocktail, the muscles, the eggplant moussaka, spinach pie, I could go on and on with everything we tried and not one thing I could complain about. By far one of my favorite restaurants.!!

Very nice restaurant ! Food was excellent and they have a price fix which was very reasonable . Very spacious and a nice bar area too. Would definitely recommend this place for couple or even large groups.

Stumbled upon Naxos and couldn't be happier. Service, food and atmosphere were fantastic. A different take on Greek cuisine and wasn't disappointed. Appetizer portions were big enough to share. We're definitely coming back.
