I went to Kyma for a brunch party on a weekend. The valet parking situation threw me off a bit because I arrived early and the parking lot seemed spacious and empty, but I could see it get fuller and busier at times. There's also street and town parking available though it is a little bit of a trek as Kyma is separated from the Main Street establishments. I did hear that this is a dressier place with DJ and people dancing, but the volume of the music felt a tad loud. I had the Greek 75 which was lemony and surprisingly very herbal. The cocktails here are not in-your-face strong, which is not bad for brunch as I didn't want to be totally wasted during the daytime. We had a whole spread of shared appetizers for the table. The famous Kyma chips were okay, but I honestly enjoyed the spreads and the grilled octopus better. The highlight of the brunch was a bongo player coming out periodically during the brunch, encouraging the crowd to get up and enjoy the music. There's that fun party vibe throughout the meal with sparklers being handed out and napkins being thrown up in the air. But this makes the dining room area an absolute chaos with waitstaff and other patrons bumping into each other. I wish they would clear an area of the hall for people to dance and enjoy themselves without being on top of other diners who are trying to enjoy a meal and a conversation. For my entree, I had the Lavraki "brozini" white sea bass that was filet opened and grilled with copious herbs. I did enjoy how flaky yet meaty the fish was, but the fish bones and insides were not removed meticulously and I had to keep picking out big and small bones. Not a big deal for me, but it's not something everyone wants to do when they're on a nice dinner out-- definitely not a date food. I tried a little bit of the shrimp linguine pasta and thought it was delicious. I have mixed feelings about Kyma because it is a good time if you are going for some drinking and dancing but the food and service was a little lacking compared to how expensive it is. It's a good time, but it is not a bargain. I would go if I was invited to a gathering there, but I would not go on my own.
Previously dined at their city location and had a great experience, so we decided to try this one since it's closer. Beautiful space and valet is a plus. Drinks are pricey but delicious and worth it. Calamari and octopus were excellent. Unfortunately, the Chilean sea bass special was disappointing. Very small portion, not cooked properly, and lacked flavor especially surprising for an upscale restaurant at that price point. The sides were great, but I came for the fish. Also surprised no one checked in to see how everything was. If I return, it would likely just be for drinks.
Delicious food! So rich in flavor and cooked to perfection. I came here on a Saturday night and had a reservation for 2 at 8:30pm and was not seated until 9:15pm. Beautiful decor inside, valet parking, decent size restaurant, attentive staff. It was very loud and the tables were extremely close together where the wait staff was reaching over our table to serve other tables, which is not ideal. I would suggest coming here on not such a busy night for a better experience because the food was absolutely amazing so don't miss out on this spot!!
This was my third visit to Kyma, and unfortunately, it will likely be my last. My previous experiences were great, but this time was a complete disappointment from start to finish. The appetizers are usually a strong point, and they started off well again -- we had the zucchini and eggplant chips, which are always delicious, especially with the garlicky sauce. I also tend to order the watermelon salad, but this time it really missed the mark. The watermelon wasn't ripe at all, which made it unappetizing. Honestly, if ripe fruit isn't available, it might be best to take that dish off the menu. The real problem was the entrée. I specifically ordered the Fagri, a fish I've had and enjoyed here before. What I received was not Fagri. It was bland, the skin was grey and thin, and it looked and tasted more like branzino. When I questioned it, the waiter insisted -- repeatedly -- that it was Fagri, which felt dismissive and insulting. If the fish wasn't available, I should have been told upfront. Instead, I was served something else, passed off as what I ordered, and expected not to notice. On top of that, it wasn't even properly prepared -- despite being filleted, it was full of long, thin bones and basically inedible. I've included a photo of the actual fish I was supposed to be served, but NOT. The service made the experience even worse. My second drink took far too long, and the waiter barely checked on us the entire night. I used to recommend Kyma, but after this visit, I cannot. Serving the wrong fish, denying it when questioned, and delivering poor service is unacceptable for a restaurant of this caliber.
Yum yum . Good service. Came here to celebrate my friends bday and we enjoyed everything. I enjoyed being told the specials but I knew what I wanted. The charred octopus amazing. I do not like octopus but this didn't make me think I was eating octopus. The wedges were very lemony. I loved the pits chips and hummus. My pornstar martini was delicious. Cheesecake amazing. The sunset was gorgeous. I would sit outside next time & they have valet.
Came here for Father's Day dinner. We had reservations for 6 at 5:30pm. Reservations were easy to make via OpenTable. They valet parking in the lot or you can park in the metered lot half a block down. We were seated at our reservation time. Ambiance was nice with a Mediterranean feel. Servers were attentive. The restaurant did get pretty loud and lively after 7. What was disappointing to me was when the server told us a list of things they were out for night and we had early reservations. I can't imagine what it was like for ppl who had reservations at 7 and on. They were out of the pink snapper, dorado, bronzini and watermelon salad. I usually order the dorado when going to a Greek restaurant so I was a bit disappointed. But I decided to order the red snapper and the waiter comes back and says that was sold out also and the only fish they have left is the 2lb red snapper. We went with it and shared with the table. The fish was cooked perfectly, very tender and moist. The appetizers were also amazing. We ordered the zucchini/ eggplant chips and the grilled octopus. My daughter who is a picky eater loved the zucchini chips and kept asking for more. We were stuffed from dinner and didn't order dessert. I would come back again to try more things and hopefully on our next visit, they wont be out of everything.
We love the ambiance. The space was open and calm and not busy. Our waiter was the nicest old man, clearly old though. We had one too too many cocktails and drinks all good but nothing especially stood out. We ordered tuna, octopus, a Greek fish the nice old waiter recommended, oysters raw, and the lemon chicken soup. Every single bite was delicious. If I had to pick a favorite it would be the soup, but I need to come back and not drink so much so I can order the rest of the menu
The Long Island outpost of the flatiron fave lives up to the name. Was as much as a scene complete w dj, great food and great people to see and be seen! Service was impeccable. Attentive, personal and not intrusive at all. The hummus and pita bread was great. Greek salad for 2 a must. Fresh and drizzled with evoo does the trick. The sesame fried feta was a great play on baked Brie. It is topped with a fig compote sorta kinda thingamajiggy. Ex-Cell-ent. Sweet savory and nutty: absolute decadence. Tuna tartare was great too. And we also tried the pink snapper grilled. The kymatini was a great play the classic martini. The walnut cake was great as well similar to a carrot cake In flavor and texture. Both too sweet but very flavorful. If you're in Roslyn and looking for a great spot on the wkd highly encourage you hit up Kyma for a fun and flavorful night.

Attractive and spacious inside setting, with some outside tables, as well. Food was delicious. We all loved the highly recommended Kyma Chips appetizer, as well as the individual dishes ordered. Staff was gracious, but intermittently friendly. We did have to wait a bit for our main courses, as well as for our check. However, it's better to wait then be rushed. read more
This is my go-to spot on Thursday nights and the only night that really matters here! Think Ladies Night on steroids. Once DJ George gets behind the turntables, the energy stays high all night long. My advice? Make a dinner reservation and arrive early. Around 9 PM, this place transforms from an upscale restaurant into a full-blown party. The vibe is elegant, sexy, and energetic. The lighting is always on point, the crowd comes dressed to impress, and the atmosphere is electric. As for the food, it's consistently good. The Kyma Chips, Crab Cakes, Keftedes, and Branzino are all must-orders. Once the bottles start coming out, expect sparklers flying, napkins in the air, and everyone on their feet. It's definitely a party. Valet parking is available, and one thing I really appreciate is that the owner is always around, making sure guests feel welcome and taken care of. One heads-up: as the night goes on, you'll occasionally run into a few people who let the alcohol go to their heads and forget how to act. Fortunately, the staff does a great job maintaining a fun atmosphere for everyone. Dress to impress, bring your friends, and be prepared for a night that doesn't end until the early morning hours. Thursday nights here are always a good time! read more

We have been coming here past few years for friends birthdays I guess it's a price fix birthday thing with unlimited drinks I don't really like the drinks because it taste like cheap alcohol in it and menu is limited it was $180 for a cheeseburger and the unlimited drinks (only had 2) although this is an occasional thing I just don't see the price being worth it even with the DJ etc. I feel like if we came not for a party type thing g the food selection may be better but this was my last year I will most likely not be back but a fun vibe. Service is good the waiters are definitely attentive read more

Beautiful decor, great soundtrack, NYC vibes! Service was excellent, servers were attentive. The food, so good! Throughly enjoyed every bite. read more
My experience here was a bit mixed. After hearing from family about the great food at Kyma for so long it was the place I picked to be treated to a birthday dinner. As expected, the food hit the mark and the service from the waitstaff was very good. Valet parking made things even smoother. We came in for an early Friday dinner (6:30pm) where the large space was nearly full. We were seated in a bit of awkward table that served as a bit of a room divider location. Despite there being a clear path a few feet over patrons, servers, and bussers felt the need to squeeze behind my chair and the wall from time to time. We ordered some Greek white wine - Assyrtiko, Gavalas "Posto", Santorini, Greece '20. We shared some generous tender octopus and "Tomato" salad. I stumped the server for a moment when I ordered it by the Greek name "Horiatiki" which made me chuckle a bit. The tomatoes were deep red and everything very fresh. The Scallop special came with 4 gigantic and flavorful ones on a bed of lobster mashed potatoes (? I think - they were very watery). I had to order the Youvetsi after hearing so many good things. The bed of tomato and orzo made my dining companion state it was just as her mother used to make (which is high praise). I especially loved the addition of Gaviera Cheese, which amped up the dish with salty umami-ness (it's a word!). This is where things went a little south. Throughout the evening I noticed there were a few guys in suits floating about and checking on things. They were filling in gaps of the service, but one overstepped by dropping the check prematurely on our table despite us ordering coffee and dessert that had yet to arrive. The server came to remove the check explaining we still have items coming. We were being rushed and it made for an uncomfortable last half hour or so of our meal which made us feel compelled to take our time because that is some BS. Anyway, this place is well loved with delicious food and usually packed. This was our experience on this occasion, which might have been closer to 5 stars but they need to work a bit on the hospitality part of their business. read more

Had an incredible dinner at Kyma in Roslyn--the whole fish was the star. Perfectly grilled, deboned tableside, and seasoned just right with lemon and herbs. Super fresh and cooked to perfection. If you're a seafood lover, this place is a must. Great service and beautiful atmosphere too. read more
I don't know why it has taken me so long to get to Kyma, but here we are. I went for Sunday brunch and it didn't disappoint! The decor and look of the place is so pretty. There are a lot of Instagramable spots as well. We had the wagyu meatballs ( YUM) and I had the santorini omelette ( delish) and really large portions. My drink of choice was a blood orange margarita ( yum wish was a smidge bigger). Service was on point. My husband is allergic to nuts and the water double checked his dessert order. Ok dessert. The Key Lime pie was the BEST KEY LIME I've EVER had, and I've had a lot. Can't wait to come back KYMA! read more
Went for a Saturday brunch for a friends birthday. Tried several different dishes off the menu but didn't get to take pictures because the vibe is sexy and chill that you don't even get a chance to look at your phone. I loved all the dishes to be honest and the lamb chops were my fav. I tried the pomegranate martini and then the cucumber one..both were delicious. They really cater to your needs and dietary restrictions/being vegetarian. They have a DJ every Saturday. The servers are very prompt are attentive to their tables. Definitely a worthwhile place to visit (not just once) read more
Decided to try Kyma and was not disappointed. The food was fresh and delicious. The portions are large so bring your appetite. I tried the tomato salad and the Kyma chips and wow, they did not disappoint. Our waiter was pleasant and patient with us because we were indecisive on what to order. What I did was to give two choices and had him pick for me. All of his picks were on point. He made sure we were satisfied by frequently checking in on us. The restaurant is styled with Greek architecture and decor and had a very cool vibe. Definitely will be back. read more
TLDR; The cocktails are the winner but there are no losers The servers are courteous and quick. The attention to detail is great and the environment is very posh. You ARE paying for the quality and not the quantity. The portion sizes are not tiny either. Every bite was great. Even the steak looked delectable. Favorite bite: octopus Favorite drink: east of Manhattan read more

Nice of bread and hummus courtesy service when you order food. Fried calamari is good and a way to go while enjoying happy hours. The lemon greek soup is a quick, tasty and preferred choice. read more

OMG where do I begin?! Kyma is fantastic. Every single minute we were there was great. The place is so nice, guys at valet very nice as well. The service was a 10 out of 10. Phillipo was beyond attentive and patient. He explained everything and also made some wonderful suggestions. The food was incredible. The Kyma chips are just a must have. My husband ordered the mussels and could not stop raving about them, he even asked for a spoon so he could have the broth. The hummus with pita was delicious. The moussaka I ordered was delictable. My husband ordered lamb chops, loved them so much he forgot to give me a bite. The baklava ice cream at the end...wow, I would have purchased a pint to take home if they had it! The music is great, the place gets packed. Its definately the place to be on the weekend, will definately return!! read more

I got the baby lamb shank over a tomato risotto and it was pretty good. A very fancy restaurant so the prices were very high, but the service was excellent! The lamb was soft and moist and very filling. I wasn't a huge fan of the sauce/flavor with it, but otherwise I would recommend! read more

Planning on coming on a Friday night with a college friend I haven't seen in a few years. We have so much to catch up on so we don't want loud music / party vibes. Is Friday night a good day ? I know Thursdays and Sundays are known for their parties
Friday is a good night to go, but go earlier if you don't want a crazy crowd.
