- Jamie TsaoOctober 11, 2014Amazing Greek food. Generous portions. Get the Grilled Octopus, Saganaki Graviera (fried cheese), and the Spanakopita.
Collette SNovember 17, 2015Great greek food, served mostly family style. Very friendly staff. Try the Greek white wines.
chin1taNovember 2, 2016exceptional Greek food, served as though you're visiting a particularly hospitable friend's dining room. I especially enjoyed the tzatziki sauce!!!
Serena XuSeptember 24, 2018Very large portions! The Greek salad and shark are both great. Come with friends and share.- Anonymous, since 2018December 23, 2019Good quality food (namely fish) but totally overpriced, eg side order oven potatoes USD 12. Also lacks many traditional Greek dishes part of a taverna menu, eg number of pastes.
CarlosApril 21, 2018Best sea food in town! Amazing octopus, and jumbo shrimps are from other planet.
Laura VitaroDecember 17, 2013The chicken souvlaki can easily feed two. The tzatziki is rich and delicious. Leave room for the free dessert.
Serap AktasOctober 7, 2013This is the best seafood place ever!! Worth every penny! New location is very home-like. A must try..

Rory ParnessNovember 18, 2014While the seafood is the star here (branzino + octopus), round out your proteins with their serious ribeye.
octopus is fantastic (big portion) and the dessert is crack. branzino is also delicious
