I paired them with chipotle mayo instead of the honey mustard, and well as the saganaki balls. The mixed grilled is always a winner. Service was great, very attentive. Very cute interior.

I'm seeing many 3-4 star reviews from fellow Yelpers and I keep thinking that perhaps my experience…read morewas a singular one. The two stars I'm giving here is for the restaurant itself. This restaurant looks great. There is a nice counter area to order, a really nice seating area inside and even outdoor seating. Some of the decor makes you feel like you're in a household's kitchen. By the cashier there is a table you can wait at complete with local newspapers. It's very charming. This was my first visit and I ordered my food to go. I had two key dishes. The first was hummus with falafel, which is very standard for me whenever I go to any Mediterranean place. When I opened the take out box at home I was really surprised. Most places give you a good amount of hummus, but here it was basically a thin layer. Kind of like a layer of mayo on a sandwich (maybe a tad thicker). Then on top of the hummus was a huge layer of pickled vegetables and tiny pickles. This was a surprise. I've had hummus orders from a lot of restaurants before and I've *never* seen this on an order before. Then the falafel balls were on top and well...they were really dry and didn't have much flavor. Now, sometimes you can cover that up by just coating the falafel in hummus, but there wasn't enough hummus to do that. The dish was just disappointing all around. The other dish I tried were the Lemon Potatoes. They were good! The lemon flavor was strong and they were cooked well. Not the best example in the area, but they would do in a pinch. At some point I'll give this place another try. Maybe this was a fluke (at least I hope so).

We never sat inside so were super excited . And I must say it was absolutely perfect. We must have had 5 separate ppl taking great care of us. Made us feel like VIP. The food was beyond delicious. We finished all 6 Courses. Greek food at its finest! I can't wait to go back.

I especially like visiting with a small group because I selfishly get to sample a lot more! The restaurant is aesthetically pleasing, with mediterranean vibes throughout. It feels like you're sitting in a beautiful courtyard in Greece. Seafood is the main attraction here. I never deviate, as I know the specials will be killer. They have a healthy wine list also. Nothing is better than a well-crafted pairing. The staff is always engaging and friendly. Reservations are highly recommended. Arriving early or a little after the dinner rush will ensure you land a seat. The bar area is nice for meetups and for shooting the breeze!

The appetizers are delicious and pretty large (without jeoparding quality). My favorite are the horiatiki salad (a refreshing salad with feta) and the midia axnista (steamed mussels with broth). If you're a pita bread kinda person, you can't go wrong with their pita and dips! For entrees, you cant go wrong with their grilled fishes (I liked the lavraki branzino the most). Their hirini brizola (grilled pork chop) was delicious too! The service is good here and the wait staff is friendly.

THE FOOD ----------------…read more+ Hummus Dip - Came with a nice amount of pita chips and it was good. Dip was very fresh, tasty and smooth. + Grilled Chicken Wings - Wings were perfectly cooked, a little charred and the roasted pepper aioli sauce had a slight kick, but it was excellent. + Short Rib Sliders - 2 sliders in the order. Sliders were good. Brioche was puffy. Short rib was tender and not dry. + Octopus - Phenomenal! The sliced octopus pieces sat on slices of roasted potatoes and the octopus was soooooo tender and delicious. Definitely could have used more. + Lamb Burger - Excellent burger! The meat was flavorful and the aioli added a little kick. Spiced fries were excellent too. The brioche bread did get a bit soggy though from all of the ingredients sitting on it. + Skirt Steak - The steak was huggggge and cut into slices. Steak was cooked perfectly medium and very tender. Once again, spiced fries were excellent. - Baclava - Came with 3 Baclava rolls and a scoop of pistachio ice cream. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough ice cream for the amount of Baclava there was. The Baclava was OK, but a bit too dry for my liking and definitely needed the ice cream to supplement the flavor. THE SERVICE ------------------- + Excellent service throughout our evening. + Waitress was very friendly and attentive checking in on us. + All of the busboys were verrrry active in clearing plates ... maybe a little too active as we were still working on some dishes and they almost cleared a few seemingly empty plates that weren't. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------- + Restaurant has nice panaramic views of the Hudson River and NYC. + Interior of the restaurant is spacious and has plenty of tables and bar seats. + Huge strip mall parking lot with plenty of parking spaces. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Came by on an early Friday evening at 6 PM and there was a good crowd inside. There were still plenty of open tables though. Crowd was trendy, music was bumping (but not excessively loud) and most people were there for happy hour (M-F 5-7:30pm), however, there was a mix of families there too for dinner.

Wonderfully yummy food well prepared and beautifully plated…read more Our party of three split the Greek grilled calamari appetizer with capers, onions, and tomatoes, lightly seasoned, and the spanakopita so buttery and flaky. The entrees we ordered: the vegetarian moussaka, the lamb ("Bifteki") platter, and the chicken souvlaki platter. We were very happy and very satisfied. Portions are ample. Timing of the 2 grilled meat dishes with the oven-baked casserole was perfect: everything was hot. Our thanks to the chef of a well managed kitchen. The complementary butter cookies were a delightful way to end the meal. Our server was attentive and professional. The interior is spotless, with minimal decoration, so nothing distracting. The restaurant is in a mixed residential-small business neighborhood. We're happy to recommend this restaurant to others.
