Solid choice for Greek restaurant. Great staff and service. Ambiance was really nice. Food was solid. Traditional made. Had the village salad. Lots of tomatoes and enough feta. Fish stew was great. Lots of seafood. Good flavor. Great meal. Nothing wowed me but I would come back if I am in the area. read more

Lovely place, nice ambience - my first impression. Offerings on the menu were tempting. I ordered the Greek sangria and pork chops. It took a long time for the drink to get to me. And to be honest, this is the first sour sangria I have tasted. The pork chops on the other hand was yummy. It was tender and juicy. No complaint. Service was slow. Waiter wasn't too friendly. Maybe he was pms-ing. But I would go back to try other dishes. read more

Tiger shrimp saginaki was very flavourful (could have had a few more shrimp for the price). But I loved that they weren't overcooked/rubbery. Perfectly done. Lamb shank was super tender. Like fall off the bone no knife necessary. Also nice taste and I could smell warm spices. Potatoes underneath were average but it didn't matter with such a beautiful piece of lamb. Server was very nice and friendly. read more

I stand corrected. I went here a few times many years ago and hated it back then. Finally came back today and was very pleasantly surprised Had the lamb shank and it was perfect. Fall off the bone soft with excellent flavour. Might be the best lamb shank I've ever had. Served on a bed or nice vegetables and a delicious potato puree. My colleague had the seafood salad and it was loaded with seafood. Looked fantastic. Our server was quirky, friendly and fun. Great experience with him and he made the experience memorable. Beautifully decorated. Not sure if they went through a renovation recently but well appointed restaurant. I will be back as I am now a fan. read more

Greeted by the super friendly receptionist, he kept us at ease while we waited for our table. Great ambiance and service overall. Not an expert at all with Greek food so I went with the recommendations. We shared the calamari and a flaming melted cheese for appies. Both were quite tasty. I had a seafood orecchiette pasta which was quite delightful as well. I was so full but we shared the yuzu cheesecake and that was the highlight of the meal for me. read more

Food was amazing. I started off the grilled octopus and grilled calamari - both cooked perfectly and paired well with their creamy tzatziki. The branzino was great as well, super fresh and not fishy. Service was great. The waiters promptly took my order, and made sure to check in once I received my food. Ambiance is upscale, but there were many people dressed in business attire dining in for lunch. I would definitely come back!! read more

Delicious! Had some kind of Greek wine (I can't remember what it was called but it was dry) and it was lovely. Moussaka for lunch and it did not disappoint. The restaurant was cozy and the staff just fine. I will come back if ever in downtown Toronto again. read more

The eggplant dip was a recommendation from the server in the bar area and it did not disappoint. The dip was fresh, well played, and the pita/bread was made in-house. Highly recommend asking for it warmed and drizzling a little olive oil on the dip when you eat it. The Chilean seabass is a must-have. The fish is cooked and seasoned perfectly, the potatoes are tender and flavorful, and the Greek salad is colorful and has the right amount of feta. Very cute place for a first date. The service was fantastic and my waitress was very attentive and offered great suggestions. The baklava is a great addition to any meal. Not too sweet but a lot of flavor and the berries were perfect. read more

Curious about this spot, we walked in and were warmly greeted without reservations. Few tables were taken. Starters- Melitzanosalata: 1 (nothing like the traditional, fresh appetizer - baba ghanoush - you get at Middle Eastern restaurants. Appearance, texture, and taste were equally off-putting.) Chicken soup: 3 (good, but wouldn't order again). Octopus: 2 (not chewy, but a bit slimy. Not fresh, and stingy with portion.) Greek salad: 2 (3 massive beef tomato wedges, a standard cucumber sliced into chunky bits, slithers of red onion, and mediocre dressing; lame.) Main- Moussaka- 5 Lamb shank: 1 (hardened, overcooked meat with mostly fat; worst lamb I've had in a long time.) Greek beer: 4 Lattes- 3 Service: 4 Most of the patrons were drinking, with few actually eating. Perhaps this is a nice option for cocktails than for food. The ambiance was nice. read more

Such a delicious Greek restaurant! Had a reservation for a team dinner and was glad they accommodate a group of 10. Service was attentive and prompt. I ordered the Moscow mule, which was just okay. Food was great though. Loved the flambe cheese and calamari as the appetizers. As for the main, I got the halibut. It was cooked well and I enjoyed the mussels underneath. Broth was flavorful. Everyone else enjoyed their mains as well. read more

Went for our Team lunch (party of 9) and everyone had a great time as both food and service were exemplary. Started off with the Saganaki and Grilled Calamari for appetizers. We really liked the Saganaki as it's not overly salty considering they used kefalotyri cheese. The grilled calamari consists of mix greens,is lightly charred and goes well with the bell peppers, onions, olives and vinaigrette. For our mains, the dishes ranges from seafood where someone ordered the Grilled Whole Sea Bass & Fisherman's Stew, pasta (Orecchiette Pasta) and meats - Braised Lamb Shank & Grilled Organic Chicken Breast. The star of the show imo is the Braised Lamb Shank. Not really a fan of lamb due to their grassy/gamey taste but nowhere will you get this taste from Volos' lamb shank. Rich, juicy and flavourful, the fall-of-the-bone lamb shank is so succulent. Every bite sets off a happy fireworks on your tongue that you can't get enough of it! Another stellar dish is their Saffron Pistachio Ice Cream. Incredibly creamy and with the predominant taste and smell of the saffron, I really love this dessert. This dessert is swoon worthy and not to be missed here. Yes Volos is on the pricey side but the experience and quality of food alone are worth both the price. Also one of the few restaurants who doesn't add automatic gratuity for large parties which is surprising since almost all the restaurants we've been to are doing this. This practice alone will entice us into coming back to Volos. read more

Lovely ambience and amazing service. Our server was friendly, thoughtful and made our lunch extra special in small ways. We had a wonderful lunch and the relaxed atmosphere put us both at ease. We have been on the hunt for a good moussaka in Toronto, and we may have found the front runner here! Their moussaka is so flavorful and packed full of eggplant. The ratios of each item was just right and it was a delight to find. Their warm seafood salad is amazing also. Grilled fish, shrimp, and octopus on a bed of greens. A light but filling meal. read more

I came here with a friend and shared a few dishes. The Saganaki was AMAZING. I would go here again just for this. The calamari was good too, the squid was a little more chewy than I would have liked. The wild pacific salmon was also pretty tasty. The manager was kind enough to approach us after seeing that we had waited over 20 minutes for our reservation to offer us a complimentary dessert. We picked the baklava, and it was really yummy. Our bill came to about 80 each, which was fair considering how top notch the vibe, decor, staff and food were. We would come here again! read more

We really enjoyed our meal here. Great ambience and service. We enjoyed the Orecchiette pasta with Shrimp which was delicious. Also the Warm seafood salad was the best since we left Greece. They have a extensive wine list with familiar Greek wines and the Baklava was just perfect. Can't wait to go back. read more

The food is alright. It's pricier than the Danforth. However, make sure you redeem the Yelp offer for a saganaki. It's quite good. The restaurant itself is quite nice and located in the heart of downtown. I ordered the Moussaka. I have to say I am a tad disappointed. For the price, the portion size was very tiny. It tasted alright. The desserts are small too and quite steep. ($10) My friends who ordered other dishes were very impressed with their meal. So I guess I ordered the wrong thing. Overall I think for the quality of food, I rather just go to the Danforth and have Greek food there. read more

Stellar meal and service at Volos. From the moment you in the service was impeccable. Our server forgot his name was great. Down to pacing out our meal, suggesting a fantastic wine to pair with our entrée and great service. Such a wonderful restaurant. If your on the fence about going...just do it you will not I repeat will not be disappointed. read more

Pretty good. Service seemed frantic. I got the halibut with fennel and the fish was solid but for the price a bit small. Octopus starter was really solid as were the grape leaves. Drinks were expensive and I think that was the big deterrent. For those price points the service should be better and the inside a bit more elegant. I would come here again but not if I were paying. read more

Lovely place with a charming, well-balanced vibe :) On one hand, the interior was quietly beautiful and almost understated with the sparkling lights, the candles on the tables, and white tablecloths. Service was polite and flawless - in the way that they would refill water glasses just as they become almost empty and without a word, or appear with the card machine as soon as the credit card comes out, or magically arrive to clear the plates the moment we were done with the food, not a second too soon or too late! On the other hand, there was the exciting open kitchen where we could watch the chefs light various things on fire, and the equally exciting spectacle where we watched our waiter light the saganaki on fire. There was the Greek music and shouts of "Opa!" which definitely helped heighten the atmosphere. All of these made for a very enjoyable dining experience. The food was quite nice as well. Knowing this restaurant features their seafood dishes, we ordered the grilled sea bass and the fisherman's stew, both of which were great. I particularly loved the stew, which came with an abundance of a wide variety of seafood in a thick tomato broth, served with some deliciously crispy garlic bread. And how could I forget the (FREE WITH YELP CHECK-IN) saganaki - I usually avoid cheese because of a slight lactose intolerance, but I think this one was worth the risk. Perfectly melted and smooth with a slight crunch on the outside. Somewhat salty though. Prices are expensive, but then what isn't around here? I'd say it's quite worth a splurge - or, if you work nearby, perhaps you can convince your manager to choose this place for the next team lunch. :P read more

Paid a visit to this lovely restaurant for a birthday celebration, and was not one bit disappointed. The atmosphere is very pleasant, and the open kitchen concept acts as a wonderful form of background entertainment. Our dishes were absolutely delicious, and the freshness of the ingredients was evidently clear! My wonderful salmon was outstanding, and truly refreshing with the light seasonings. I was also excited to see the superb wine menu, and our pick was definitely a hit. Every aspect of this restaurant has been perfected to ensure guests receive the best experience. I wholly recommend Volos to all, who are looking for a special and memorable evening out. Truly superb. read more

I came to this restaurant with high expectations and left extremely happy! The location is perfect, Richmond street west provides you a great spot accessible to Eaton Centre and Queen st west. The restaurant is very fancy and cozy! Now about the food: 1. Saganaki is the coolest dish there, they make it in front of you so definitely order it! 2. Octopus : As a person who has never liked Octopus, I gotta say I was right because none of them were as good as this one! 3. Lamb Shank: The look is enough. I can't say more. THE BEST. TENDER AND GREAT! 4. Baklava: Was good, nothing bad about it. All in all, I definitely suggest here! read more

Got a free saganaki for checking in on Yelp! It was flamed kefalotyri, lemon, and ouzo. Lots of fun and entertaining for 15 CAD. I'd never heard of saganaki before, so it was fun to try the fried cheese with my group. Very greasy though. Opa! I got the Fisherman's stew for 31 CAD for my dinner. Wild salmon, tiger prawns, calamari, mussels, saffron tomato broth, and garlic toast sounded really good on the menu, but the actual dish was just okay. We had two servers for our table, and it was a little disorganized because they both came by at different times and asked us the same questions. It looked like the two of them served the entire restaurant, so not sure why they didn't divide the room in half and take separate tables. There was also no bartender, so one of the servers also had to double as the bartender, so service overall was a bit slow. read more

Went for Winterlicious, the food was amazing. Shrimp Saganaki - Delicious. Shrimp and tomato soup are always good combo, the pinch of cheese took the flavour to another level. Octopus Salad - Octopus was very soft and well marinated. Sea Bass - It was grilled perfectly, unlike most of the grilled fishes that always go dry, the fish was soft and juicy. Lamb Shank - SO GOOD. The meat was well processed and seasoned, I couldn't even taste that strong smell, which is my most fear of eating lamb. Their meat was so tender. Highly recommended. Baklava - They added cinnamon into it, gave one more flavour to the sweetness. Love this dessert. Chocolate Mousse - Made with dark chocolate, heavy and smooth. Delicious too. It is a great place to have Greek food. Would definitely recommend their lam shank. read more

Came here for a Summerlicious birthday meal, and was quite impressed! Typically, I avoid Summerlicious now as I find it to be very pricey but also very mediocre quality. This was particularly true after witnessing my friends' Bar Buca winterlicious meal. That said, after much scrounging and close scrutinization of all participants' menus, I settled on Volos as it seemed to be the biggest bang for buck - and I wasn't disappointed! As some of us chose to order a la carte, we were able to check in and redeem the free saganaki appetizer. Opa! The flames were very impressive, but even more so was the cheese. The kefalotyri cheese was steamy and bubbly, with a lovely seared and hardened top. I'm not typically a fan of cheese, but this was amazing. The bread was also on point; served slightly warm, it matched the olive oil completely. I ordered the grilled octopus appetizer, fisherman's stew main, and ouzo chocolate mousse dessert. I also got to sample the grilled calamari ordered by a friend, the Summerlicious lamb shank main, and the baklava dessert. Grilled Octopus: This appetizer was quite large in size; it came with a small side of arugula salad, baba ganoush, and 3-4 grilled tentacles. The salad was dressed very nicely with the perfect lemon vinaigrette. It was my first time trying the baba ganoush, which was nice and smokey, but the texture and taste did throw me off at first. Unfortunately, I found the tentacles to be a tad disappointing. I hoped that the ends would be perfectly charred and grilled, but they came limp and tender. I don't think that they were flame grilled for an adequate time after boiling. Perhaps the name should have been boiled octopus... I also found the balsamic vinegar to be a bit too overwhelming and masked the subtle flavour of the octopus. Grilled Calamari: These pieces of calamari (four in total) came dressed with grilled tomatoes, sweet peppers, and olives. It was a nice and light dish, and the calamari was perfectly al dente. I quite enjoyed this, and actually preferred it over my main. Fisherman Stew: This was a quite comforting main, served with two pieces of garlic bread. The bread was crisp, warm, and so fragrant! While I did enjoy the main and loved the massive, al dente shrimp, and flaky, juicy pieces of sea bass, I found the broth to be overly salty and tomatoey. I wish that there were more flavours to balance it out, including a more subtle sweetness instead of aggressive brine and pepper. The mussels were slightly small and difficult to eat, but overall I found this main to be quite lovely. Braised Lamb Shank: This is the perfect main for those who prefer a more gamey meat taste! The shank comes in bone, served upon an impressive mound of mashed potatoes and wilted greens. My friend found it a tad heavy due to the strong gamey flavour, but I enjoyed my couple bites from it! Ouzo Chocolate Mousse: This is an extremely rich and heavy dessert - but I loved every aspect of it!! The mousse is whipped to be unbelievably light, but the flavour of chocolate is undeniably strong. It's not too sweet by any means, and the dollop of chantilly is the perfect final fluffy touch. The whole dessert is like a rich chocolate cloud. Flourless Chocolate Cake: Due to the lack of flour, this dessert tasted like an avocado chocolate cake. While sweeter than the mousse, it still had a strong chocolate flavour but was quite dense. The texture didn't resonate much with me, but it was okay. Baklava: I had one bite of this dessert, and my friend and I agreed that it is very similar in taste to an apple crumble pie. It's a fairly large dessert, so she packed it to go after our Summerlicious feast! Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed Volos. The restaurant has an amazing ambiance that's perfect for dinner dates and outings, and the servers are so kind! I found the service to be phenomenal, and well deserving of the 18% gratuity they add to groups larger than 6 (we were 9). It's a bit on the pricey side, but is a nice place if you're looking to splurge a bit and treat yourself! read more

Good Greek and seafood if in a hurry. Great spot for lunch. Okay for dinner. Food was okay and dinner menu is expensive for what you get. For example the seafood salad is $32 for dinner and just Uber $20 for lunch. Very tasty. Moussaka was okay, bland. Calamari was a bit burnt. Better for lunch than dinner. read more

If I had to describe this restaurant in one word, it would be - mediocre. We went for dinner a couple of weeks back. The hostess was very pleasant and had us seated. Good start. Now for the not so good Volos is priced as a higher end restaurant. The first impression one gets is the decor. We were seated near the kitchen. Where it was quite ordinary. The ceiling was open and you could see the vents and wiring. Average looking chairs. With the prices Volos charges, decor should be a factor. The biggest disappointment was our server. We planned to share several appetizers rather than ordering mains. Her face visibly fell when she heard that. We ended up ordering over 5 appetizers over the course of the evening, so it wasn't a cheap evening. Plus dessert. However, our server never stopped by after taking our initial drink and dinner order. So much so that we had to ask another server to get us more drinks. At which she magically reappeared at our table with the drinks. The food itself was also mediocre. Compare it one of the older and better known restaurants in the Danforth. For the prices they charge, you are much better off going to other $$$ restaurants in the downtown area. read more

We have been to volos twice so far, both times were on Valentine's day, two years apart. This place deserves a 5 star review. The food is amazing, the service is extremely friendly and the staff are knowledgeable. The place has a cozy mediterranean vibe to it. The kitchen is open concept so you can see what's going on in it, and the space is sparkling clean. On our second visit, we got the whole red snapper, the market price for which was $49, and the fisherman's stew. Both were extremely delicious. The broth for the stew was so flavourful but not too fishy. The red snapper was cooked to perfection and the sides that came with it complemented it so well. My husband and I enjoyed dining at Volos and we will definitely be back. Also, free saganaki with yelp check-in!! They set it on fire at the table, it's so entertaining! I highly recommend this place. read more

One of the few Greek restaurants in the core of downtown Toronto and it was a good first experience. The service was great from the moment we walked in, friendly host and servers. The restaurant seems great for all crowds, we saw families with little kids, groups celebrating birthdays and older adults just having a good time for dinner. They had a great selection of drinks, Greek wine, California wine, Italian wine, as well as cocktails and beer. They're menu wasn't too large, just enough to not be overwhelmed with the selection! We started with the hummus and pita which was delicious, I always appreciate a good hummus. I then got the gluten free penne with atlantic salmon and that was also very flavorful. My friends got the sea bass, and braised lamb shank which they mentioned was great. We finished the night with the saffron ice cream, which I really enjoyed, the rose water did not overwhelm the taste. If you're downtown Toronto and in the mood for Greek, Volos would be a good choice. read more

Amazing service. Our waiter made our special day even more specific by bringing some ice cream on the house. My favorite dish was the moussaka, it's a new flavor that I've never had before. Braise lamb was also good, very tender but was a bit too salty for my taste. Would recommend it! read more

Food was great! Service was great! The ambiance was very nice as well. Def a place to try in Toronto!

Great spot for groups! Visited on a Friday night for the Summerlicious dinner menu. Made reservations for 5 which was easily handled online and seamless. Got the grilled octopus, braised lamb shank, and chocolate mousse. Also a bonus that a Yelp check in gets you a free saganaki (appetizer). The saganaki is their flaming cheese and its quite the spectacle with the dish being doused in flames in front of you! It was very warm and soft and goes super well with the provided bread. The grilled octopus was delicious and tender while contrasting the overly strong vinaigrette. The lamb shank was the highlight for me. It fell right off the bone and was seasoned nicely, mixing with the mashed potatoes and some vegetables. Finally, the chocolate mousse was very rich with some fruits and whipped cream. Service was very friendly and provided good recommendations regarding things such as drink pairings for the menu. It was nice to find a place that doesn't skimp on their offerings during the 'licious menus. Some of my friends had the seafood stew and had good things to say about it too. Recommend! read more

This restaurant has nice decor and quiet relaxed atmosphere. The service was excellent. The food was not anything I would come back for. I tried traditional greek dish moussaka and it was not bad but nothing special, if the dish price was about $15 bucks it would be worth it but for $24 it is overpriced. My partner had snapper for $43 and it was very bland with no taste at all, I could honestly say I do cook fish better at home, and for this price I would expect better quality. If I were the one ordering this dish, I would immidiately send it back to the kitchen, it was just tasteless. The appetizer Saganaki we got was in flames and looked very intersting, it wasn't bad. I saw many people ordering baby back lamb ribs, maybe this is a good dish but I don't know as I haven't tried it. The 3 starts only for the service and the atmosphere. read more

Outstanding traditional Greek cuisine with a modern touch. I had the octopus to start and the lamb shank as a main. Both were cooked to perfection and were extremely flavorful.

Food: 3/5 Decor: 5/5 Service: 4/5 This review is for the Winterlicious 2017 menu. We called in a few days in advanced for a table of 4 for dinner and they informed us that the only table left was a table for 12 in which we would get a section of. This was fine with us, I appreciated the heads up and the table ended up being nicely separated. When we arrived, we were impressed at how nicely decorated it was as we had no idea what to expect from an upscale Greek restaurant. I ordered the Tiger Prawn Saganaki, the Lamb Shank and the Baklava. We were pleasantly surprised to see that the menu was $35 instead of the $38 that was stated on the Winterlicious site. We were kicking ourselves the next day when a friend informed us that we could have gotten a free Saganaki if we checked in on Yelp. Oh well. Everything we ordered was good and came out quickly, but it didn't overly impress us. The lamb was really tender and a decent size. I got to try a bit of the hen which was something new, and although the taste was decent, I felt it was a little dry. After my meal, I was surprised that I didn't feel full after. Overall, we thought the food was average, though I can't speak for the menu off winterlicious. read more

O M G. Dining at VOLOS was the perfect way to end the week. The atmosphere of the restaurant is relaxing; there are a lot of candles and cultured ornaments (ie. vases on stands, engravings on the wall) displayed all over. Even the door frames and textiles added liveliness to the Greek restaurant's culture. The service was also very delightful, we were well catered to with respect to the timing of food served, as well as water refilled. Additionally, the staff was well-humoured, sociable, and extremely courteous (way beyond expectations). Summerlicious dinner ~$35 Grilled Moroccan Octopus (VOLOS Organic Olive Oil & Balsamic Dressing) - octopus was juicy and succulent and topped with a minimalistic amount of balsamic glaze; I've also never tried arugula this grassy which was delish; it was served with a side of green coloured puree which I couldn't quite figure out Braised Lamb Shank (Feta Mashed Potatoes, Swiss Chard & Crispy Leeks) - the lamb was extremely tender and literally fell off the bone once my knife touched it! the crispy leek garnishing was a very interesting touch of something-something; the chard has a dry chewy texture but went extremely well with the richly flavoured and delicious mashed potatoes (I'm drooling just thinking of it) Traditional Baklava (Phyllo Pastry, Honey, Walnuts & Pistachios) - the phyllo layers were separated with the top being flakier and crispy, and the bottom had crushed nuts sitting on a honey-drenched layer, which was reminiscent of a granola bar; served with a dash of strawberries and blueberries Lastly, I was intrigued by these flaming dishes that were served around our tables, and they turned out to be the flaming cheese appetizer~$13 Saganaki (Kefalotyri Cheese, Ouzo & Lemon) - the server would come out to flame the cheese and put it out with lemon juice immediately before putting it on our table. It was quite a unique sight that happened to be extremely tasty as well. The cheese was like a saltier version of Parmesan (which happens to be one of my fave), and it was well savoured. I could barely taste the sweetness from the Ouzo but that was completely okay! The outside of the cheese was crispy and the inside was really chewy and just a tad stringy. This dish has heightened my standards for cheese. Hands down the most pleasant summerlicious experience I've ever had. read more

Check in and get the free saganaki!! That may have been the highlight of our meal. Delicious triangle of flaming cheese doused with lemon juice, the perfect blend of sour and salty. After eating an entire saganaki to myself (with baguette slices), I was already quite full. But the mains came and my appetite was back! We had the whole grilled sea bass and the lamb shank. I preferred the fish but my counterpart preferred the lamb! Both were very tasty - I think it was just a matter of which dish we started off with first (cause it was hotter when we ate it). By the time we switched plates with each other, they had cooled down significantly. Lamb shank was fall-off-the bone, but I wouldn't say it stood out to me flavour-wise. The whole fish was really nice, and was paired with nice sides. read more

I made a reservation a couple of weeks in advance and I was so excited for the food every single day leading up to my reservation and I had every right to be excited. This dinner could not have gone any better, straight from the service to the ambience and the food. Our server was so lovely and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed and wanted. HERE IS WHAT WE ORDERED: Saganaki: Not only is the presentation spectacular, the cheese is delicious as well. Not too salty, and pairs well with the bread basket. Seafood Krithoroto: Wow... can the seafood here get any better? There's a good balance of seafood to orzo, so you're sure to get a good mix of seafood and orzo in every bite. The calamari is so soft and tender, salmon is flaky and melts in your mouth, and the prawns and mussels are cooked to perfection. Lamb Shank: Probably one of the best lamb dishes i've ever had - the lamb is so tender and juicy, falls off the bone and melts in your mouth. The flavours aren't too over powerful and they do provide a good balance of sides to complement the lamb which is really the star of the dish. Braised Greens: You really do get a lot of greens (asparagus and swiss chard) for $7. It's a great addition especially if your dish is seafood and pasta heavy. Chocolate Mousse: The mousse was so chocolately rich and velvety but very light at the same time. Even if you're super full from dinner, it's light enough to add on and complete your meal. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a place in the financial district. The portions are huge and well prepared, making them a bargain for the price. (Might even be better than some restaurants in greek town and that's saying a lot...) read more

The ambiance was great. Group ordered the Spetzofia VOLVOS which is a lamb sausage. Delicious. Flabeed Saganaki (they set some cheese on fire, nice and salty), and the Grilled Moroccan Octopus. All were delicious. The octopus was even better with a squeeze of lemon, so try and taste it both ways. Excellent. I had the Seafood Krotharoto. Salmon, prawns, calamari and mussels in a delicious tomato sauce. Great with their bread. Others liked their Cornish Game Hen, Pan Seared Halibut, and Fishermans Stew (salmon, prawns, calamari, mussels in a saffron sauce). Friends shared the baklava, some had coffee. I tried the Greek Merlot wine. Xinomavro, Syrah, Merlot blend called "Paranga" Kir Yianni Naoussa. I had low expectations because I thought that Greek wines were rated poorly. This was terrific. Complex, with a long finish. Our server was very helpful. Real classy place. Will visit again. read more

Incredible, Great food and great atmosphere. My wife and I were greeted at the door and immediately settled into our seats.
