TomAugust 9, 2017Well executed authentic Greek food. Attentive friendly service. Classy ambiance. Very generous portions. They have one of the better Restaurant Week offerings.
Paula BuzzoNovember 23, 2018Amazing Thanksgiving Price-Fix Menu, the butternut squash soup w/ a touch of cinnamon was to die for, Turkey very tasty too, to finish milopita w/ caramelized apples. Impeccable service.
AnastasiaMarch 16, 2015At last, a Greek restaurant abroad without the tacky tavern-style decoration and mediocre food. Beautiful place, excellent service and the food is better than my mother's!
Janis HuangFebruary 1, 2017Grilled octopus and bone-in whole branzino are perfection. Pricey but not overpriced for fresh seafood and quality produce. Walked in on a weeknight with no wait, solid Greek food.
Tanya RobinsonAugust 20, 2013Great service & food. Don't miss the grilled octopus or chocolate baklva. Lamb shank was falling off the bone! You can really trust the staff with wine selections.
Douglas EllimanJuly 22, 2014A high-end Greek seafood cuisine with a prefixed theater menu perfect for Carnegie Hall-goers. We love the wonderful selection of Greek Rose, and recommend ordering the clay pot lamb shank.
Village VoiceAugust 15, 2014The restaurantâs signature dish is its rich moussaka, but the baked lamb shank in a clay pot, Melitzanosalata (eggplant dip), spanakopita, and tzatziki are all recommended. Read more
N AvedisMay 26, 2019Aside from the slow service, the food is amazing! Those appetizer spreads are great served with their delicious bread. I loved my stuffed red bell peppers dish.
Haya Al DossaryAugust 10, 2015I'd go back for the beet salad alone, it was perfect, octopus was excellent too
Marc SchneebergerMarch 11, 2017Very fancy greek restaurant. A bit touristic but just because of the location. Food is good and wines are from greece which makes it better!
Kavitha SagiNovember 2, 2013Chicken soup is awesome, I'm gonna try to make this part of my regular repertoire at home! Service is great. Get the dark chocolate baklava that is not on the menu
Diego CKApril 27, 2017Excellent greek restaurant. My fauvorite of the night was the moussaka. Simply amazing!
ışkın NamdarFebruary 11, 2015Octopus with red wine marinated, barbayanni ouzo and homous ... Also Angelina Dimitriou backround sound.. :)
Mrs LJuly 30, 2019These two desserts ordered together make perfect partners in crime- the loukoumades, ordered with the cherry spoon sweet topped yogurt to dip them into!
Minka Monica LiFebruary 17, 2015Decent Greek restaurant in midtown W. Good lunch spot for people who work nearby and also a close walk to MoMa
Alan SutherlandFebruary 21, 2014Absolutely superb restaurant, great staff, never rushed, order the lamb cutlets, they are too die for !!!
The Culinary Institute of AmericaDecember 12, 2012Nick Livanos grew up working in restaurants, so it's no surprise that he fell in love with the CIA! Today, this CIA graduate works with his siblings to oversee all the Livanos family restaurants.
Ask for the Taramosalata Caviar with cucumber instead of breads. Fantastically Great and low carbs.
Scott ThomasFebruary 4, 2015Probably hard to make a mistake here. The moussaka was rich and delicious.
WP TheaterMarch 19, 2013At WP, we have had a craving for amazing, genuine Greek food lately. We see a trip to Molyvos in our future. See you there?
Stuart MinimanFebruary 22, 2013My kids said that the homemade lemonade ($6/glass) is the best they've ever had.
Nancy JonesFebruary 16, 2010At the end of dinner be a real Greek and take a shot of ouzo (make sure to put an ice cube in and wait until it is cloudy white to drink)
Tasting TableMay 1, 2012Sip a Mastiha Fizz, concocted from mastic sap liquor, soda water and mint syrup: Read more
Susan J CampbellNovember 5, 2016The moussaka was underwhelming but the lamb chops were delicious. Waiter was superhelpful
Homewood SuitesNovember 22, 2011Molyvos is on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade path! Tune in and catch the Lewis the Duck "On the Roll Again" parade float presented by Homewood Suites by Hilton.
- All of the bartenders are great, very personable with every customer.
