Absolutely amazing. I was in the area and I wandered in. What a flag of good luck. Greek cuisine always pulls at my taste buds. I had the lamb shank with orzo, I think. What a true delight.The service was excellent. Attentive, cordial and responsive. What a pleasure!I'll definitely be back soon.

Literally one of the best Greek salads in NYC...if not the best. Great neighborhood mainstay.

Food was good but overpriced. Overall staff was nice but our actual server was very mean and made us feel so uncomfortable.

Great spot for greek food! The inside was relatively large with lots of seating. They started us off with fresh pita and olive oil. The olive oil was rich tasting and went well with the pita. We also orders an app with filo, feta and prosciutto, topped with a fig jam. It was very filling and the flavours complimented each other well. We ordered chicken with rice and a side of salad, as well as the lamb with orzo. The portions were huge, and really well worth it for the price. The lamb was so tender it fell off the bone. The orzo was very flavourful and went perfectly with the lamb. Service was fantastic. Our waiter was so friendly and provided great recommendations.

Personal favorite for Greek food. Service is quick and food is absolutely delicious. Their veggie and seafood dishes always hit the spot and I'm personally a huge fan of their moussaka and white fishes. Great experience every time! Also, the vibes on the weekend are absolutely great.

Such a cute and cozy spot with nice decor to make the Greek family fun restaurant experience authentic. We had a nice bottle of red with our meal and started with delicious appetizers. The halloumi cheese, veggie chips, octopus, and pita bread with olive oil were all so tasty and decadent. We also shared a village salad with shrimp, which was fresh and delicious.

This was me stepping out of my comfort zone, I've never tried Mediterranean food. I won't say that it was nasty, I will just say the flavors were new to me. I order a steak skewer with rice and salad. My friends enjoyed their meals (they've had Mediterranean before. I wouldn't personally try this spot again, but it was very well put together. The decor and seating was perfect. Very nice place. Can be a bit pricey, so have a wallet handy lol. The staff was friendly. We say outside and it was such a nice lunch vibe. Try them out!

I had food delivered today and was sorely disappointed. I ordered the lamb chops - they were really grizzly (and expensive!) The Greek egg lemon soup was delicious.
