Very good, solid Greek restaurant. Too often in Germany, I feel like the Greek restaurants have the same selections and/or are just ok. This place was lovely, and had a variety of options on their menu. It was exciting to see such different Greek dishes that I feel like I never see at other restaurants.
I began my meal with fasoulada soup (white beans in a tomato broth)- wow. It was incredible. I haven't seen that on a single menu in this country yet, and the flavor was outstanding. Reminded me of when my Yiayia would make it in my childhood.
My husband and I both had lamb dishes for dinner. Let me tell you- the lamb was so tender, it was falling apart from just the fork. Delicious. Mine was the lamb in a lemon sauce, with a choice of butter rice or homemade garlic "chips". I chose the latter after hearing the enthusiasm from the waitress over them. It was all delicious. My husband got a dish that was originally supposed to be served with veal, but they were out and he okayed them to sub lamb instead. His was really a winner. It had rice and some kind of tomato sauce- I wish I could remember the names of each of our dishes. Both were outstanding.
To top it all off, we shared a nice, light bottle of red wine from Crete. It was nice. We probably should have chosen a fuller bodied wine considering our entree choices, but it was still enjoyable.
The staff was very nice. Our waitress offered to translate anything on the menu since they didn't have English menus. We didn't need the help (mostly haha) but it was a kind offer most waitstaff is too busy to do. Overall, they just made us feel welcomed and at home. Definitely go if you want a satisfying meal after a long day of sightseeing :) read more
