Shepherd's salad is always nicely seasoned and refreshing. The lentil soup was pleasant as well. It's hardy, flavorful, comes out hot and is a good portion. Overall, I think the lunch fixed menu is a great deal and this place is a gem. My favorite restaurant right now! Remember it's BYOB

The restaurant also had a steady flow of take out orders all night. The meal started with pita and olive tapenade which was delicious. We then ordered the grilled octopus appetizer along with a gyro platter and a chicken platter. The octopus had good flavor but was mushy. I tend to like my octopus on the crispy side with grill marks. The two platter entres were both delicious and large portions. Another great benefit is the restaurant is byob and you can bring your favorite wine or beer. I will come back to try more items on their menu.

We sampled all 3 of the red wines they offered before deciding on one and buying a bottle. Bottle prices are fair enough, but these aren't high end wines.

We're generally not wow'd with these, but when combined with an appetizer and their complimentary dip with pita, it's all filling enough. The air felt a bit stagnant here again and then some customer must have said something because they finally turned on their house air conditioning. It felt so much more comfortable at that point, but we were already almost done with our meal. Service was great. They also charge a 3% credit card fee or offer a 4% discount if paying with cash. A mixed bag of penalty and incentive.

It was a quiet lunch and the place had only about 4 tables of customers the whole time. Yet, it took a rather long time for our 2 apps to come out (30 minutes??). Both the zucchini chips (basically fried zucchini) and the Greek meatballs come with a dipping cup of tsatziki. They were all good. Meatballs were 4 small in an order and the zucchini breading was breaking off most pieces, but, the flavors were good. I had the lamb Burger, which comes with Greek fries, and ordered it medium - it came out fully cooked through. Still, was a tasty burger. The fries were also nicely seasoned, a bit tangy and covered in feta. My coworkers all liked their meals too. I was particularly pleased with the wine we bought - a great rosé from Macedonia. They still charge a credit card fee. There's some parking around the building and always street/metered parking. Our server also did a fine job and I think it was generally a good time for everyone.

The porkchops for dinner along with sea bass were excellent , and cheesecake and backlava were filling and tasty. Every dish was incredible. Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The atmosphere was just as impressive: lovely décor, an energetic vibe, a large bar area, plenty of parking, and both indoor and outdoor seating. While the outdoor space looked great, the indoor ambiance really stood out and made the experience feel extra special. Service, food, and atmosphere were all top-notch. I can't wait to return!

I've been dining at your restaurant for approximately eight years, and last Friday evening was the…read morefirst time I've left feeling disappointed -- which is why I felt it was worth sharing. I ordered the Chilean sea bass and was genuinely surprised by the preparation. It's such a prime piece of fish, but the heavy onion and tomato topping completely overpowered it. Unfortunately, the onion was still raw, which made the dish even more difficult to enjoy. It felt like the quality of the fish was lost beneath the garnish. The scallops were similarly confusing. Pairing seared scallops with a version of eggplant parmesan didn't feel cohesive, and the flavors competed rather than complemented one another. As for the appetizers, they fell flat. The hamachi lacked brightness and flavor, and the ground tuna and salmon quenelles did not taste particularly fresh. I do want to emphasize that the service was excellent, as it always has been, and the restaurant remains beautiful, clean, and well maintained. That consistency is part of why I've been a loyal guest for so many years. I'm sharing this because I care about the restaurant and hope this was simply an off night. I look forward to returning and experiencing the level of quality I've come to expect.

The large Greek salad is...large. It's well balanced, has mild feta and we got it all topped with grilled calamari (for an added $9). It's a good value as you get plenty of calamari (vs ordering an app of calamari). Dinner ends with complementary Greek cookies - kourabiedes.

You have to dine in to see what I mean. Parking is a little tricky, but street parking is available and could be free depending on the time of day you arrive but be prepared to walk or circle a bit before being able to secure your spot. Also highly recommend a reservation for a weekend as it was packed. In addition to the regular menu, they also had specials which our fabulous waiter took us through. We got a bunch of appetizers for the table to split and each got our own entrée. For a group of 4 we ordered more than enough and everything was fabulous. For starters, we had a trio of dips with pita, the pear arugula salad, crab cakes and the crispy cauliflower. The hummus was so creamy. Baba ghanoush, not too heavy on garlic and tzatziki bright and creamy. We ended up asking for extras of the pita as it was also good. The salad was beautiful and refreshing and the cauliflower appetizer, wow I could eat this all day every day. Crab cakes also delicious. For dinner we had one of the specials - scallops over risotto. Also did the Bronzino, Mediterranean skewer and leg of duck. Again, everything was cooked perfectly and seasoned so well. The hanger steak in the skewers with the chimichurri was so tender. The duck was falling off the bone tender. For dessert, we had the equivalent of a lava cake which we shared amongst the 4 of us.

Pita Greek offers bowls and salads (with added protein possible for $6-7), pita sandwiches, and big platters that come with two sides and pita bread. We really enjoyed the chicken gyro (tender), spanakopita (generously filled), and the falafel (surprisingly not dry but some people may prefer a crisper texture). For the sides, we enjoyed the chicken lemon soup and beets most. The lentil soup, scallion rice (similar to pilaf), broccoli (large pieces), and fries were ok too, in that order. The bowls and pita sandwiches are $12 base but we were a bit disappointed that the falafel addition to the bowl only came with three smallish pieces. The big platters are probably the way to go if you want shareables, as each separate item can be more than the $20 for the platter. They have a pita sandwich lunch special with a drink too. They also have kids meals and catering. Wish they had moussaka on the regular menu! They display desserts at the counter and they all looked very sweet. I wasn't expecting much in terms of atmosphere but it looked comfortable and clean in the dining area and there was outdoor seating. There's a shared parking lot in the back which is nice for Middletown Road. But otherwise, street parking is possible.
