    The Fish and Fries, along with some Gyro meat!
    Miles T.

    The food is sooooo yummy!! I got the Fish and Fries, and my mother got the Traditional Gyro, both are phenomenal!!! We took it home, but the experience while we were there was great. The kind man who rang us out was so sweet, very attentive and very friendly. The entire restaurant looks super cute, has a very "mom 'n' pop's" style. Overall, I would absolutely recommend people to visit!

    What a fun place for lunch. The food and service are at the top of my list. The Traditional Gyro was full of meat that cooked to perfection. If you don't like it, it's your fault. :)

    I recommend this place because its good food and plenty of it. I will mention that the zaziki (sp) sauce is sour cream based.

    Omgosh best gyros ever! And the owner is hilarious and fun to talk to. Their menu is much more variety than most other Greek spots.

    Solid Greek food, I'm Greek and more critical of Greek restaurants. This place is good and you can't go wrong with any menu item.

    My wife likes Greek Food, so we tried it. It's pretty good. No table service, no refills on drinks. Somewhat expensive.

Our server was very kind, and he explained that the chefs are the owners, and they are in the kitchen every single night. This is their passion project, focusing on super fresh ingredients, and you can absolutely tell. We started with the bread service, which was delicious. It was covered in seeds and spices, giving it an extra punch of flavor. We then moved on to the cheese saganaki and fried feta, which was my favorite bite of the night! For mains, we got both branzinos. The filet came on a bed of rice and spinach flavored with spices. The filet was perfectly crispy. The whole branzino was also delicious, but just watch out for bones! We were pleasantly stuffed so we didn't try dessert this time, but we'll be back soon!

Also there were no paper towels in one of the restrooms. Unfortunately, the food wasn't to my taste. It may be that I LOVE Mediterranean food ( Armenian/Persian) but not Greek food. The olives were too salty for me and the feta-filled phyllo appetizer felt too heavy. The octopus was beautifully presented but not for me. The chicken was fine, though nothing special. I'm more accustomed to Armenian and Persian food, so personal preferences certainly played a part. Our server was attentive and enthusiastic. I would have appreciated being asked about our tastes before receiving recommendations based on what was popular. Overall, I appreciated the the service and setting, but dinner was disappointing to me personally.
