Saw an employee place a placard outside showing the following: Happy Hour Special Any flatbread pizza + any draft beer or wine. Only $15 All beer + wine $6. HH every day. 3pm to 5:30pm Great service. Employees seem friendly. We will be back. Note: Their business hours are expanding starting 4/27/26.

I ordered a glass of the white blend, which I wasn't really a fan of. The server was nice, but he was busy, so it took a while for him to return and take out orders. I ordered the crab dip for us to share. It was a good option to share before dinner. I then opted to try the spicy margarita. I actually really enjoyed it. Overall, I like the ambiance and variety of options. Although our server was really nice and apologetic, I was hoping for a better service experience. I would definitely try again and possibly go when the weathers nicer so I can sit outside.

This place is hoppin'! Whenever Yelp asks me if a place is hip, I never know what to say -- until…read morenow! This place is definitely hip! What a vibe! So cool, fun, nice décor, super-helpful and responsive staff, lots of people eating outside and inside, and quite a selection of foods and beverages with lots of room for personalization. We came here because they have lots of vegetarian things and are known to be accommodating of requests regarding dietary needs and preferences -- what a relief from the get-go, even before arriving! Parking was easy but since I wanted to go to the bookstore afterwards, I parked near that, around the corner, and had a little amble along the road, looking at various shops and restaurants along the way, plus the greenery of the park .... I got the Avocado Tacos and asked what I could get instead of rice -- one option was the El Greco salad, so I got that. I felt a bit weird about it, though, until it was explained to me by our waitress that this wasn't just a Mexican place but rather a Mexican-Greek fusion! Oh, wow! Mind got a bit blown by that -- cool! Well, with that info., my mind relaxed ... and I awaited my meal. This is a good thing, but if you're in a hurry you might want to get something ready-made or more quick such as soup or salad that needs little to no preparation. For me, I'd rather wait! (I mean, whenever possible, that is.) So ... it was delicious! I was hungry. It was filling. The avocado was all very fresh, no yucky pieces, ha ha! Plenty of flavour, texture, colours, visual and all kinds of other appeal for the tongue. My two corn tacos under each heap of goodness did fuse together -- presumably from the moisture of all that lay on top of them -- so I could not separate them as I usually do, but the truth is that it ended up being so much food, I didn't even finish my tortillas, anyway. The tempura tacos (Aha Baja) have warm and crispy pieces that are not too big -- and that reduces the potential of a too-greasy feel. In a word, good! Or just plain 'Mmm!' The Roasted Potatoes are absolutely delicious! The Black Beans are totally tasty! The amount of desserts is incredible -- and all are house-made, wow! I could not believe how long the list was! Oh, yeah, and the appetizer of chips and salsa was crispy and yummy. The guacamole is creamy and has a hint of spice that varies by bite .... The food was all great, and so was the rich Lemon and Ginger tea was incredibly good! It looked and felt rich and thick -- such a surprise! I enjoyed it immensely. I was also offered honey, sugar, and milk to go with it if I wanted, and found out that the owner is a tea aficionado and that's why their teas are so good! If you don't like noisy environments, you might want to avoid the busier times (such as weekends) or eat outside, weather permitting. This is such a one-of-a-kind-place -- not to be missed! Yay! :-D

Bring your patience and an appetite! It's a small restaurant so getting a table takes some time…read more Our group of five had a reservation for 12:30pm on a Saturday and we're seated around 1:00pm when some tables finally cleared. It looked like there were two servers working the entire restaurant so getting our waters also took a bit of time. I promise the food is worth the wait. I got the grecco salad with rotisserie chicken, avgolemeno soup, and potatoes. Everything was absolutely delicious. I wish I had two stomachs so I could order and eat more! My Greek friend swears by their chicken, potatoes, and avgolemeno soup and she didn't steer me wrong. Id love to return in the evening to sit at the bar sometime. Bar seating was more readily available than the tables.

A wide selection of wines, and chilled beers are also available. There are so chilled wine bottles and single beer cans you can buy and enjoy at the location as well. Plenty of indoor seating, and outdoor seating too. They also host live music and trivia nights! There are areas for improvement though. As I said it has new owners, but the place is old and desperately needs an interior remodel, and new outdoor seats/tables would be great as well. Food selection is also wanting - chips are the only thing on the current menu as far as I can tell. To sum it up, a great local business with new owners that deserves your support! I just hope the new owners but a little TLC into the place to improve it!

The bartender Sean was a bit busy, but made sure to engage and socialize with everyone at the bar.

I dont know exactly what it was but he said there was honey and gin. Delicious drink. The happy hour menu was AMAZING!!! SO MANY OPTIONS, and for such a good price. We will definitely be back to see Sean and the rest of the wonderful staff at Vasili's!!!

That aside, the staff was very friendly, attentive and helpful, and I loved the bossa nova covers of 90s songs playing in the background.

It's essentially filling (virginia ham, bacon, arugula, red pepper, caramelized onion and white cheddar) wrapped in a thin layer of scrambled egg, which I was very happy with. The omelette was served with a side of home fried potatoes that were seasoned perfectly. I will definitely visit again in the future.
