    Hibiscus margarita
    Riri P.

    Found after our fav Mediterranean spot across town was closed on a Monday around brunch time. Food was good and our waiter Aidan is one of the kindest I've come across which made the ambience feel even nicer. While a few tables filled from the time we arrived until we left, it was still pretty intimate. Helps that drinks are good (but pricey) and coffee to give an extra boost at the end as well.

    Restaurant is quite pricey, even for nyc! Aside from that, really appreciated it - delicious food, very friendly service, cozy ambiance. Looks more empty at first, but quite a busy crowd inside the room (in the back, we were there on Thursday night).

    Newly renovated, authentic Greek family owned restaurant. Super sweet staff that made our experience personal. Appetizers were great, the baked feta with their house bread was my favorite. I would go heavy on the appetizers, light on the main courses. Meat was slightly overcooked but everything else was great!

    AMAZING! Service/Ambiance: wonderful across the board! everyone was super attentive and friendly. We were able to sit in the cafe section and be on our laptop for a few hours on the weekend which can be hard to come by nowadays. Strong wifi, comfortable setting and great music! Food: quite possibly the best eggs I've ever had. My husband and I got both for the breakfast egg bowl and thought it was delicious - they must some type of seasoning/sauce that really made the dish. The avocado was also incredibly fresh. For another snack we had the orange olive oil cake which I must say I was skeptical about and it was UNBELIEVABLE. Truly a must-have! Very unexpected. The orange flavor is light and the texture was very soft and not too dense. They were unfortunately out of the brownie but I definitely want to come back and try it!

    went here for my anniversary with my partner. This place was magical. We went during Christmas and the decor was amazing. Floating lights, vibrant ribbons, done up Christmas tree... everything was beautifully placed. The staff was clearly trained. They knew everything about the menu and were clearly attentive to their customers. The food was great! We shared the lamb chops which were amazing. I am a huge fan of lamb chops and I have never had such flavorful ones. We also had their dessert which was mouth watering!!! Amazing. I really have nothing bad to say about this place. It's a real gem!!

    Our party of 4 ordered food wise 8 things and everything was delicious and incredible. Me having picked the place was especially glad to hear my two non-foodie friends saying "I saved this restaurant and I never do that" "best brownie I've had" etc. They also had the ouzo which was smooth and nice. I had the Greek coffee which was good too. Food wise, my personal favorite were the Santorini salad (amazing dressing and mix of veggies), portobello gyro and Ikaria bowl. All were packed with variety of flavors. I do wish the Ikaria bowl could have more veggies though. The warm manouri cheese was popular among us and my husband's favorite. I loved the tahini brownie with strong halva flavor. Just wish they make dessert without refined sugar. Service was fast and super friendly. Environment was relaxed and cozy. I'm coming back for brunch in 2 weeks with friends so am looking forward to it!

    Beautiful coffee shop! I had an iced latte and my friend had a cocktail. We almost felt like we were sipping our drinks in an expensive furniture store because of how well arranged the furniture was and how cozy it was. Good service here too.

    If you are looking for a place to host an event in Manhattan, look no further than GRECA! We had our wedding at GRECA in June, and I cannot recommend this spot highly enough! The vibe was absolutely perfect, and we are still getting compliments from our guests about the food & drinks! From the beginning, Tom & his crew did a wonderful job of helping us to envision the space and the flow of the event. They worked with us to co-create the perfect evening, complete with a customized menu and schedule. They set the room up exactly the way we wanted it, making sure the space would be able to accommodate the needs of our party (we had approximately 100 people). On the day of, everything ran smoothly, everyone had an amazing time, and the staff was extremely helpful in addressing any/all concerns that popped up. GRECA comes equipped with a DJ booth, a microphone, and audio-visual equipment to support a customized photo slideshow. GRECA's location in Tribeca near the water also makes it an ideal place to take photos before the main event. If I had it to do all over again, I would pick GRECA as my wedding venue every time! 5/5 would recommend!

    Amazing Greek restaurant. The staff is super nice and this space is huge. Plenty of space to sit down and eat and hangout in the back. Plenty of couches to hangout with friends and a bar right there. For brunch, get the Prosciutto Sandwich and the Avocado Toast.

    My wife and I took our kids (10 and 16 year old boys) to this place on our last evening in NYC. We…read morewere looking for a place that had a nice ambiance and good food. Ambiance: This place has a nice ambiance, definitely very "New York" -- dark (you can't see how dirty the floor is) and loud music (maybe too loud). We sat upstairs (we had a reservation) and of all the people on the top there was a party of 4 (us), a party of 8 (all dudes celebrating something) and the rest of the tables were on a DATE - which I thought was funny. Service: We were served by Ann-Marie who was so delightful. She was kind, super nice, and took the time to speak to us (which is basically how we figured out she wasn't a native New York City person). She gave us good food suggestions and we were very happy with our selection. Food: Here is what we ordered * Steak Frites: My two boys got the steak frites and I have to say the steak was awesome! I had a bite of each of theirs and they each ordered it differently (one Medium Rare/Medium and one Medium) and they both were prepared PERFECTLY. The fries were overflowing. * Caeser Salad with Salmon: My wife got the salad with Salmon (they only have a few salad options) and she enjoyed it. * Prawn and Crab Risotto: I got this and I have to say it was VERY bland. I wouldn't get this if you are looking for taste. I had to put salt and pepper on it to make it have any semblance of taste. Value/Price: I would say this is not over priced but it is not cheap either...bill is attached. I would recommend it to folks who are looking for a good place to either go out on a date or a family type meal.

We jumped over to the bar right beside and drank some girly drinks before getting the notification our table was ready. As with nearly every establishment in NYC, it is very close quarters in paradise lost. We stood at a table while waiting for seats at the bar to become available. Which, we didn't mind. I could see how this might be a little harder to get a seat for a bigger group if you aren't there before 6. It seemed that once a group got a big table, they camped out. The drinks were strong and creative. Friendly bartenders, good music, and yummy options for bar snacks. Also, the bathroom is a nice touch. Given the hell theming for the bar, the bathroom is a 180 and while using the Lou, you can listen to the bible being recited. Theres also a spooky surprise if you press the button in the bathroom. Speaking of the bathroom, it is at the bottom of some decently narrow stairs. So, try and stay sober enough for stairs or you may fall. Go to this bar. You will have fun.

That's a good thing to be very strong for that price I'm paying. The spam musubi was also a rip-off. You see two here, but each one costs its own $10, so save your money. Eat somewhere else.

It was on a weekday, the day of NBA Finals Game 3 when everyone else were at bars & lounges getting ready for the game to start. This afforded us a beautiful and tranquil experience at Osamil Upstairs. Hidden behind a locked door inside Osamil, it's a spot you have to seek out to get in. After we shared we were going to Osamil Upstairs, the hostess from Osamil promptly unlocked the unmarked door for us to head upstairs to Osamil Upstairs. Had other customers not come out as we were walking up the stairs, we might have passed the entrance to Osamil Upstairs and continued upward! Much like what you might expect of a speakeasy, it's well-hidden, and the interior just blows the mind. It's elegant, beautiful, and comfortable. The drinks were good. My cheese in the trap was smokey (as promised!) and alcohol forward. My hubby had the Jung cocktail and it had the most magical, delicious combination of flavors! We also ordered a foie gras with toast appetizer as a pre-dinner snack; it was OK. All in all, a really pleasant experience and we'd return if we were in the area again!

The Amazake Kick was balanced with just the right amount of sweetness, making it a fantastic starter. For food, we ordered the scotch egg, sliders, and fish and chips. The scotch egg was solid, though the sausage layer felt slightly dry this time around. The sliders were great, while the fish and chips were decent--nicely crispy, but the fish needed a bit more flavor seasoning.
