Great good, amazing service, superbe ambiance. Was served by the best waiter Anthony (friendly, A1 service,) what more can you ask for…..A+++ in my book !!!
Repas servi presque tout en même temps entrées plats c'est pas reposant très déçu surtout j'avais demandé un service plus lent pour la saint Valentin en moins d'une heure fini mangé payé
We ordered the Saganaki, fish, & meat platter, which should include potatoes & rice. Everything was well seasoned & delicious. I would highly recommend it.

Bonne cuisine très bien exécutée les spécialités grecque d une délicatesse les viandes tendres & bien marinés un choix très varié autant les entrées que les plats principaux
What a great experience. Delicious food & desserts. Excellent service from Tracy & Tiana. Bring your own wine. Beautiful ambiance... Will definitely be back! Thank you so much Philinos!
Nous sommes allés un vendredi à 17h. On a bien été servie par une demoiselle très souriante & agréable. La nourriture etait tres bonne & les portions étaient énormes. La moussaka était délicieuse & on l'a partagé à deux tellement qu'elle etait grosse. Le loup de mer était un peu pateux mais quand meme tres bon. Pour finir le dessert on a partagé la baklava au fromage….c'etait incroyable.

For quick, well-executed Greek food, this is the place. This was probably the juiciest, most succulent pork souvlaki I've ever had. The pork was tastier & juicier than the chicken. Honourable mention to the fresh, delicious, tangy roasted potatoes. However, the decor & ambiance needs work - it's tacky, cold & thoughtless which was disappointing.
I came to Philinos for my daughter's birthday having been told how amazing the food & service was. I experienced first hand how quick efficient & polite the waiters & waitresses are. The food was sublime & I 100% recommend this establishment for any kind of event. 10/10
Food was fine but thats it. This is the first of many issues restaurants will have with tips & service, there was no service at all, server opened bottle of wine, served a cup of water , served the food & ba-by see you at the end when you have to pay her 18% tip. ENOUGH with this bullshit, as a consumer i am not responsible to pay her salary . I work hard for my money so should the server. Enough is enough gratuity is based on what the consumer feels they should tip & not coheres by the machine to tip 18%.
