With its assorted small plates and excellent bar especially try the sangria and retsina , Fili never disappoints! The creatively designed Greek inspired interior makes us want to sit, eat,drink and relax , OFTEN!

Our first time to the restaurant for brunch. the menu attracted us because of the authenticity of the offerings, especially the varenika, which is a very old recipe that's almost lost and forgotten. Food was excellent! as well the Greek coffee and a very pleasant owner. Will be back for the Greek wine and dinner. Well done!

Love that they offer brunch , it was perfect small plates so we can taste the different dishes . The Cretan breeze mocktail was a perfect balance of taste .

It is a pleasure to see care. Care is taken in every aspect of this restaurant. Care is delivered in the form of exquisite cuisine. Everything that we ordered....was excellent. Familiar dishes were reinvented with creativity: Spanakopita, Ceviche, Keftedes (meatballs), and Baklava all tasted like they were prepared by a Greek grandmother who became a 4-star chef!

New restaurant working a few kinks out. Having said that, food was amazing. Incredibly fresh and tasty. All the dishes were wonderful. Waiter was also awesome - very attentive and knowledgeable. Enjoy it now, it will be booked solid soon.

Love Love Love Fili! Only bring a sweater bc our party was freezing from the a/c, and be warned, on a Friday night the music is very loud and it's hard to hear each other if you are old as we are! But otherwise, we will return again and again.

The restaurant itself has a charming atmosphere and the interior that create an inviting vibe. Great for a casual or a special dinner. The combination of great food and a cozy setting makes it a must-visit spot!

Loved it. Everything was fresh, clean flavors. And they filleted the branzini! Service was attentive and helpful with the menu. Although you could just order everything since it's a small menu and small plates! Decor was contemporary. Felt like you were in on a greek island. Will definitely be back.

This was our second visit. I ate the same things as they were so good the first time. For a starter (PIKILIA in Greek) I enjoyed the Tsatsiki. It was a small serving and that balanced with the courses to follow. For my Main I had a small plate Verenika - House made Pasta filled wth Feta, Browned butter, and strained yogurt. The crowning jewel of the meal was the desert: Ek Mek Kataifi - you can simply say Ek Mec. It was a nice, round cake with whipped cream (I think) top. There were some pistachios on the plate with a light sauce. There were walnuts (Shredded, I think) and a whole box of subtle taste added. The two women who are the customer facing team apparently take turns (on different days) acting as bartender / bar patron wait staff while the other one is the Table wait staff. They can ex[plain the foods, and match the wines to terms we might be more familiar with. Bothe times the owner was at the bar enjoying the food. I talked with him both times. One of the two kitchen staff (both have the same first name, which I forget - posibly Robert) came out and asked how we liked the food. It is a real winner.
Totally a refreshing and intriguing experience that only one who knows the difference between going out to dinner Vs enjoying a totally relaxing intimate eating experience can feel the vibe. Food is graciously presented by a host of the establishment caring for your every indulgence. Menu speaks for itself truthfully and delicious. Every element of this restaurant is a devoted and represented by its inspiration. I will look forward to to my next encounter. Thank you !

The Greek food here was excellent. Every fish was packed with flavor. We had Chicken Souvlaki, Branzino, Spanakopita, Rice Pilaf, Roasted potatoes, Saganaki. Plates are small, so you order two or three per person and share. Best Greek food in Rhode Island!

When we arrived, there was only one other table in use. We were a party of 4 and had a reservation and they sat us right next to the other party. When we asked if we could sit a little further distanced from the only other people in the restaurant, we were told that they were fully booked and we could only have that table. It made no sense. The food was very good but the amount of food for the price was a bit ridiculousl We did not walk out hungry but we certainly did not walk out full and the price of the meal for the four of us was over $400.

We've been three times. Ordered from all over the menu. Consistently, the dishes are expertly prepared and thoughtfully presented. Staff is engaging and friendly but not invasive to your experience.

The food and drinks were great. You can tell the servers are still training but they were very nice and personable. My only complaint is that it was expensive for how much food you got. For example, the chicken skewer that comes with three chunks of chicken, a few pieces of pepper and a few pieces of onion costs $16. For that price, I would've expected at least 2-3 skewers on the plate not just 1. I would go back for a special occasion, but this cannot become a regular restaurant in my line-up due to cost.
