Paige CJuly 7, 2017Food was outstanding. Don't miss the Yefsi chips or the mussels. My only complaint is that even after making a reservation, they said all of their outdoor tables (back & front) were already reserved.
Cappy PoppNovember 9, 2013Grilled octopus. JUST DO IT. All day, every day. And the dip plate. And shrimp saganaki. And lemon potatoes. Seriously, this place is utterly amazing. Just don't take my bar seat - pointing at you.- Morgan McKeeApril 16, 2017Lively place with great Greek staples. Start with the grilled octopus and beets (very yummy sauce). Go for the imported fish for more authentic (and better cooked) experience
Sarah SG.June 11, 2022Delicious greek cuisine! Tried the spread platter, zucchini and eggplant chips, calamari, and the marinated chicken with lemon potatoes. All were excellent.- Philo4ThoughtApril 7, 2014Octopus is amazing. Will have to sample the lamb after the Easter Vigil! End the meal with a scrumptious bowl of yiaourti!
Paige AnneDecember 26, 2014Must get the seafood orzo entree, lemon potatoes side & octopus appetizer! My favorite meal in the city to date!
AlexisDecember 7, 2014Was a delicious meal! The menu is tasty but they really excel at specials, so give it a listen. Spreads appetizer is always a good bet.
Russell HirschornMarch 1, 2015Seafood orzo is slammin, great house white, baked feta and octopus set high expectations at the beginning of the meal.
AnyaJuly 21, 2016Grilled octopus is a must! Everything we've ordered was delicious, except for spinach as a side dish.- Rachel SmithMarch 20, 2016Great greek salad and moussaka, green beans are amazing. Order wine, not the best place for cocktails.
HeyHayleyJaneJune 18, 2013Halloumi to start was yummy. Lamb kebab (souvlaki?) was really chewy, and tough to even cut up! Be prepared for onion breath 😷
Diana SFebruary 2, 2013hidden gem; amazing service & delish authentic dishes: grilled octopus, feta spread, veal pasta..,incredible
Mosharaki is the best!!!!! Ask for extra sauce : ) also love the pikilia appetizer : )- Steve RobertsOctober 16, 2013Food across the board is amazing...love the Octopus, shrimp and Yefsi chips
Food was fresh and cooked to perfection, I highly recommend this restaurant
Klaudia PyzMay 17, 2013Awesome Greek food! Don't be scared to try the after dinner "gum" tree liqueur!
- Susan Siepmann GrecoOctober 26, 2013Loved the food and the atmosphere! Reminds me of all the delicious family dinners we had with our Greek friends while growing up on Long Island.
