Made a last minute reservation on Black Friday; was less impressed than I thought I should be for the advertising/price. We both got pasta dishes - maybe we should have gone for some of the higher-end entrees but just weren't really in the mood. Cocktails were OK, quite simple. I asked for a second, different cocktail, and the bar made me the exact same one I just had. However, they do have an extensive alcohol list. Server was lackluster, not much personality. My wife's dish tasted good, but there was 1/2 cup of oil in it. Not an exaggeration. The food was completely saturated with oil so none of the flavors of the dish really came out. The pasta was floating in the oil. I had the Shrimp Mediterranean dish, and the fettucine was overcooked and quite mushy. The entire experience was pretty much Meh. I doubt I would try again, as there are so many better restaurants close by. *The one redeeming factor was the Saganaki appetizer. Fun and delicious - it was better than either of the meals*

The menu said $16 for the chicken artichoke meal and they changed us $20. We upgraded house salad to the Greek salad and were charged full price for the Greek salad. Bottom line was $80 dollars for 2 person dinner and the chicken was tough. We’re not going back.

I'm sorry to have to say that our lunch at Kifi at Yorgos was the absolute pitts! The food was old and terrible -- but the service was great.Our waitress told us she had begun working there only two days ago, but she was friendly and attentive; she checked on us, but was not intrusive.We were really looking forward to eating Greek food... I ordered moussaka and my two friends ordered spanakopita. The meal started with a rather nice Greek salad. There was too much vinegar in the dressing, but it was nice and fresh, so we had great hopes for the rest of the meal. The spanakopita looked good and was served with 3 little extra canned dolmades. The looks were deceiving, because even after adding some salt and pepper, the spanakopita was completely tasteless. The dolmades were mushy, but had some taste. My moussaka already looked unappetizing: it looked old and overdone. It was. What should have been that wonderful, unctuous bechamel was a solid slab of tasteless ness, covering a mushy meat mixture which was also completely tasteless. No hint of delicious herbs and cinnamon, no taste of eggplant, tomato, or onion, no tasty beef... nada. I was a little hesitant to even eat it because of how it looked. The canned stuffed grape leaves didn't help either. I ate about a third because I hated for my friend who had in tied us to feel bad.... The waitress asked how our food was. I told her that my dish was tasteless and seemed old. She said she'd tell the cook. She may have, but nobody came out to see what the problem was....I was afraid to order desert.The place is also super dark and dingy, but we loved the fresh air when someone opened the glass partition in the front.

First time visitors! My boyfriend had the Mediterranean chicken which came with 2 sides. He chose a baked potato and mac and cheese. I got the Pastitsio. We both really enjoyed our meals and were stuffed when we left. It was my boyfriend’s birthday and the waiter offered him a free dessert. He turned it down because he was full and couldnt eat anything else. The waiter brought champagne over for us and another couple we were with to celebrate. Wonderful food and service!

Expected more of the saganaki and salmon wasn’t exciting. Lamb chops and spanakopita were quite tasty. Nice ambiance in 2nd floor dining room.

Eight of us dined upstairs in the fine dining area. We were not given the option of eating elsewhere, although we would have preferred the taverna menu. Most of us ordered a Greek dish. Service was somewhat slow and indifferent. When the entrees arrived, at least one was wrong but in the interest of time, it was not sent back. However, all the food was lukewarm or actually cold and several dishes had to be sent back to be reheated. The waitress made no apology for this. One of the dishes had a crust so hard that it couldn’t be cut. Most of us are familiar with Greek food and this was not authentic. There are many great restaurants in Lancaster. Go elsewhere!

What a horrible experience here. The menu I was given by the waiter was the wrong one and then we ended up getting over charged and they get an attitude with me because of their error. The food was okay and drinks hardly taste like they had any liquid in it.

I stumbled upon this rooftop by accident sorta. I was in the area and we happened to use Yelp to assist us in trying something new. It was kind of confusing to get inside for the first floor from the entrance level from the street is called a different name so you had to go through the restaurant and take the elevator to get up to the second floor rooftop which was called a different name. The first floor looks more like a family dining experience it reminds me of a old school Family Restaurant, however when you get upstairs it opens up to a beautiful well-lit room definitely Instagram worthy. As you walk outside to the mini deck it is very simple but picture worthy still. They only had one server in which it wasn't bad because it was only me and another group in this establishment but I can only imagine how it would be if it was a busy day. The food came out fast and hot and I love the curated cocktails. This is definitely a diamond in a rough for you would never suspect that there was a rooftop bar in this block of Lancaster.

New to Lancaster staying at the Marriott and went here for a cocktail. It’s a “club” at night with mandatory ID checks with image capture and rude staff. Never again. This place is great if you are into that kind of thing.

We were there to celebrate an anniversary this week. Everything was superb. Loved the decor, food and service. Our first time there, won’t be the last time!

The house greek salad contained a generous amount of feta cheese with a delightful greek dressing. My wife enjoyed her Southwest Taco Salad while I had a fine dish of Grilled Gyros. Unexpected surprise of a great experience and would highly recommend.
Great place, good energy, and good music!
