This restaurant is a typical Greek style diners, no decor whatsoever, but the food is fresh & good.
We were 4 people on a busy Saturday night, place was packed with mostly Greek diners, which is a sign the food is authentic & good.
It’s a family style dining experience, where you order several dishes for everyone to share.
Appetizers: Octopus was good, Calamars also good, fried Zucchini were okay but too much batter & oily, the Tzatziki sauce was really thick & light , not too much garlic, simply delicious. The Greek salad was also very fresh & good.
We ordered a kilo of lamb for our main course; it was really good & more than enough for four people...with all the entrees & bread/tzatziki, this was plenty of food.
dessert: Loukomades ,which are fried pastry dough balls drizzled with Honey , warm & delicious.
Wine list was okay, prices were extremely reasonable, some starting at $30-$40
Price wise, it is very reasonable, approx $150 per couple with tax & tip.
I would recommend it for a casual night out with friends that have good appetites.

Went with the girlfriend & her parents for a nice night out. If you want souvlaki on pita, look elsewhere. But if you want authentic Greek food, then this is the place!

We had the octopus, taramosalata, tzatiki as starters & they were fantastic; the tzatiki was thick & tasty - not runny like you get at other places. Octopus with capers coulda been a meal unto itself.

Dinner was lamb (by the kilo) with sides of potatoes, rice & greek salad. I highly recommend trying the oven roasted potatoes with lemon...I prolly put on 5 lbs with those alone.

Dessert was the little dough balls (dunno what they're called) with honey & yoghurt...OMG, I stuffed myself.

Will never know if the food is good here, my family was forced to leave before we could try anything. The waiter was nice, but the owner was not. We got up & left when he decided to insult my young kids.

I am very surprised at the negative reviews here, I guess it is possible that they had a change of staff recently. But the food is amazing.

I have gone there 3 times in the past 3 months, all 3 times have been great. Once as a big group of friends, another time with my girlfriend & the last time alone as I was in the area.

By far the best Greek restaurant I have had the pleasure to dine at so far.

The waiters are fast & give excellent service. At one time I had this waiter, that was a little too fast(A fast talker also) but very professional & charismatic.

The owner is also really cool, often goes out to see if the clients are satisfied with their meal. He strikes me as the type of guy I would love to go out & have a beer with. Funny thing is he offered me a shot of Metaxa.

The food quality is far above the big chains. I know I will be going back there again soon.

What a waste of time, money & relaxed dining. On a very quite night, the service was far from adequate. The appetizer was forgotten to be ordered, waited an additional 15 from the original 10 minute wait time to be served. Then the appetizer was not cooked properly. An 18oz rib steak, medium rare, half was as ordered the other half to well done...how is that possible? The veal chop very small for the price, but was hard as a rock. To sliced fries, loaded with so much oil. This was definitely a very poor experience, Mentioned this event to many friends & therefore will never visit that location. We were happy to get the invoice & leave. Perhaps it was just an off night...you think?
