I had a terrible experience when picking up food today. The older woman managing the place, I think her name is Mona, was so mean and disrespectful. Totally unprofessional. Which is a shame, because they now lost our business.

The door dash menu for their large salad has an image of chicken in it BUT there’s no chicken in the salad if you order that item and it doesn’t that say. Very deceptive do not door dash then waste of my time and money

What a find. As a fellow greek I can be a tough critic and I have nothing bad to say about this place. First off they have huge portions which is great. The saganaki was lovely and is a nice start to the meal. It is served literally on fire which is traditional. The gyro is also massive and the meat was tender and flavorful. The tzatziki is spot on too. Make sure to grab baklava on the way out. My favorite! I will be back.

Wanted to try this place ever since we moved from the city. People we talk to, write ups I’ve read, we wanted to see if it was that good. It was a very nice, cozy place have high tables and regular, if you make a reservation online if you don’t specify the type of table they give you is high if they can. We had a special appetizer off the menu that was very large and delicious. A larger then normal round slices of lemon/red sauce potatoes with grilled eggplant, onions and peppers, with a second plate of a thick slice of feta with sliced tomatoes with a drizzle of spicy oil. That we devoured with pita bread and by then we were stuffed (and I’m a big,tall man). By the time our main dinner arrived we were stuffed. My wife had the stuffed pepper and tomato’s with lemon potatoes and some pita bread. I had the chicken souvlaki platter that had lemon potatoes, pieces of chicken with pita bread. Portions were not small but we could not eat much at all and took it all home. The lemon potatoes are shaped in larger chunks of potato then used too (not a fan) I like it in the normal wedge sliced potato you usually get. Chicken was a little well done on most pieces but still flavorful. The stuffed pepper and tomato was delicious, you got one pepper and one tomato both large, flavorful, seasoned just right. There was no dessert, as we didn’t eat much of the main courses because of the large delicious appetizer. One thing that stuck out was our waitress she wasn’t the friendliest of people, quick, straight to the point and unfriendly. As you finish your sentence she is already walking away. We heard other waitresses and waiters being polite and engaging, maybe she was having a bad day or maybe it was because we took awhile to order our main meals because the selection was so large. But in our defense we told her from the beginning we are not in a rush. BTW my wife just had water (she isn’t a drinker or very rarely) I had a pint of Athenian Pale draft it was delicious but expensive at $9.95, total with the tax in cash was $88 and change. Appetizer was $15.95, our main dishes both were $28 something can’t remember but it was a low number. All things considered we still want to go back and try other selections. It was a Friday, we were there early, reservation was at 5:45 we left at 7:15. At 7 pm by the outside dining which is in front of the place they had music and a singer which you heard inside as well thru speakers, nice touch.

We live walking distance to this restaurant and I am VERY GLAD we do! Large portions, we always fill a tin to take home, and ESPECIALLY (but not exclusively) when you use their generous coupons and cash, the prices are excellent. MONA is a fab waitress, and because we could see much of the room when we last went, we noted that the interaction between the staff and other diners was lovely. Great place.

We liked some of their food (that which was made seriously better than other Greek restaurants) and some was just okay. (Not too thrilled with the salad.) But KNOW that you'll save yourself some money if you use cash at the restaurant. Using the online ordering system tacks on a high credit card fee over ordering on the phone and paying cash when picking up. Seems their credit card processor and their online ordering is done through the same company, and you end up paying for all that convenience with higher than typical cc fees.

My husband and I came here tonight for dinner. I had come here another time with family too. It's a wonderful authentic Greek restaurant!! The portion sizes are big and you'll definitely have leftovers! The waitress Claire was very kind and helpful. Greeted at the door! The people who wrote negative comments ...definitely don't get it! Can't wait to come here again. Incredible food and service
