Greek salad with Greek dressing and chicken
Cat B.

Best Greek Salad EVER. It's huge, fresh, and delicious! The Dolmathes perfect on top. The pistachio pie had a very strong pistachio flavor, so good. And I had never had a basque cheesecake but I don't like crust on cheesecake so this was perfect! Delish. Loved the hummus as well as the harissa and garlic sauces I ordered on DoorDash as I had never seen it on there before and will be ordering again soon for sure.

Greek salad  Hummus trio

We had a lovely experience dining in this beautiful restaurant. Felt just like visiting a friend, everything was decorated with home touches and the artwork was gorgeous. The food was delicious, fresh and warm! We ordered a Greek salad and the hummus trio, everything came out in good timing and was tasty and light. Will gladly return, Denise our server was super kind and very helpful. She made the experience extra wonderful.

Tasty Greek food and excellent service. The gyros salad was loaded with hero meat and the tziki sauce was very good.

We met up with friends at Paros Estiatorio and honestly weren't quite sure what to expect. After…read morelooking through the menu and photos beforehand, I landed somewhere between casual and upscale with jeans, a button-up, and a jacket. At first I felt slightly overdressed, but as the evening went on the crowd definitely skewed more polished, though overall it still leaned approachable and relaxed. The restaurant itself is beautiful, and one of my favorite parts was being able to watch the kitchen in action. The lighting and music might be a little challenging for some older guests, but we had no trouble carrying on conversation at the table. Service was on the slower side, though we were there to enjoy the evening and never felt rushed. We started with the spanakopita and grilled octopus. The spanakopita was excellent, perfectly crisp phyllo with a filling that leaned more spinach-forward than feta-heavy, which I really enjoyed. The octopus was fresh and flavorful, though it wasn't as much of a hit with the rest of the table. For salads, we tried the roasted beet salad and the watermelon feta salad. Both were fine, but on a return visit I'd probably skip them and save room for more appetizers or mains. For entrées, I ordered the lamb shank while my wife had the moussaka. Both dishes were excellent, but the moussaka absolutely stole the show. It's served in a square baking vessel and is rich, comforting, and easily large enough to share between two maybe even three people. To finish, we took baklava to go and stayed for the crème brûlée, which was exactly what you want from a classic version of the dish: creamy custard with a perfectly caramelized top. Overall, Paros delivered a really enjoyable evening with a beautiful atmosphere, strong entrées, and a menu that feels elevated without being pretentious.

Walking into the bright, tastefully appointed restaurant, I was pleased to see it wasn't the over-the-top, kitschy blue and white I'd feared. The maître d' was pleasant and accommodating when three of us arrived 30 minutes early for our party-of-seven reservation, and we were happily seated at the bar for a pre-dinner drink. As I passed into the dining room, I noticed the window into the kitchen, which added to the ambiance. The waitstaff were smartly attired, professional, and polished. Our servers were knowledgeable, efficient, and truly outstanding--it's been years since I've experienced such solid table service. For starters, we shared several plates. Unfortunately, our tasting board (an assortment of vegetables, pita, hummus, and tzatziki) tasted as if someone had taken a salt grinder to the whole thing. On the upside, the fried chickpeas were a fun addition, and the stuffed grape leaves were delightful. Three of us ordered the scallops and risotto for our entrées, and that's where things unraveled. The scallops were cooked to perfection, but the risotto was overwhelmingly salty. My sister took one bite and sadly said, "It's too salty." I tried mine and had to agree. Our father--ever the Midwesterner--finished his dish despite the saltiness rather than complain. I quietly informed our waiter that all three risottos were over-salted. I share this because I truly wanted to give Paros five stars: the service and atmosphere were incredibly enjoyable, and the wine list (with plenty of Greek options) was terrific. Sadly, someone must have been heavy-handed with the salt last night. I'd love to return and see if it was just an off evening--3.5 stars from me.

Twilight zone ah restaurant…read more The summer evening's gentle humidity greeted me as I woke up from a strange dream. I recall a long room. Tables set. A menu hanging by a thread, the crease counting on one hand how many openings it has left. What is that desolate counter doing there? And those Wayfair basket shelves? Sure, I'll get the Greek Platter. A tasty entree no doubt but an unholy matrimony: the saddest pita bread you'll meet. At no fault to Kinzi, cyclospora weighed heavy on me this meal. Just thought you should know. Soon I'm in the hallway. Washing your hands is righteous, right? Where am I? Laboratory light seems to come from nowhere. Dove white dry paint on the floor and the door. And the handle. Get me out of here. As I descend the steps of purgatory, a siren calls: "Hi! You are currently being recorded!" Motion detectors. But where? And what are we protecting? The patrons from themselves? I'm back, but not for long. This entire time I endured the music. The flat screen does no justice to these poor bare bellied women, forced to dance for eternity, only punctuated by YouTube ads. Then, suddenly, there's an incessant beeping. For a few minutes it won't go away. Then, "Hi! You are currently being recorded!" followed by the cutely sinister chimes. Oh, it's the ice box. He rips something out of the bottom and the beeps dissipate. The kind man approaches. "Hi! You are currently being recorded!" What? Oh! The plates, yes, and the check, yes. "Save Ferris," his shirt reads. Is that who we're guarding? As he walks back, "Hi! You are currently being recorded!" *jingle lingle ling* Time to go. The motion detector once again clocks me as I exit. Everyone should dare to dream. For now, I must wake up.

It had been about eight years since my last visit, and it was every bit as amazing as I remembered. The food was outstanding. I ordered the Philly Gyro with fries, and it was absolutely delicious. My friends ordered a variety of other dishes, and everything we tried was flavorful, well-seasoned, and juicy. I also love hummus, and theirs is some of the best I've ever had. The service was excellent as well. Our waiter was incredibly kind, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The atmosphere matched the food perfectly. We sat outside on the back patio, and it was a beautiful day. The setting was relaxing, and it made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I had a fantastic experience and will definitely be coming back. If you're looking for delicious Mediterranean food, I highly recommend giving Jerusalem Café a try!

I think I'm a hummusexual…read more.. This is one of my top 2 favorite Mediterranean spots and it's not #2! I absolutely love their lemonades, for just 5 dollars you get a big cup of to-die-for lemonade.....and a free refill to take with you! It tastes fresh and immediately refreshes you. We ordered the pita pizza, falafel and baba ganoush, and built a bowl with yellow rice and gyro. Everything was delicious and had us full and satisfied. Their gyros by itself is also as delicious. I'm also going to go ahead and say they have amazing hummus, fresh pita bread, and delicious falafels. Their pita pizza is good and appetizing just not the best. They also have big portions which is always a plus The service here is a 5/5 on its own. Our waiter was always available, had us taken care of as soon as we walked in, accommodated all of my needs when it came to my food, and answered all of our questions.
