I realize things are tough in the food industry but this place exemplifies all the negative and very little positive. (the wait staff being the only positive). The portions were a good deal smaller than they use to be. I usually get only two sides but today I could have eaten three. The real downfall was that the food was lukewarm at best. Understandable if we were there at 2 or later but we were there at 12:30. I would have sent it back but we didn't have the time. Back in the day this was my "go to" place. Now it's my "stay away from" place.

I ordered one of the 5 specials: leg of lamb. Now I will say I was disappointed it wasn't on the bone and the meat wasn't as tender as I would have liked but overall the meal tasted really good. For $12.99 the deal for the amount of food was great. Everyone in our group had something different that all looked delicious. They have more than just Greek food which in itself was interesting. At our table there was pork chops, lasagna, pizza, and some Greek dish that I don't recall the name. Overall everyone enjoyed their meal. The service was good, with the server coming back to check on our large group frequently. My two gripes were she kept reaching over everyone which is a big no no is service industry and downright tacky. Additionally, they had their fingers basically in the food when they were bringing some of the plates to the table; which is disgusting. Overall the food, service, ambiance, and price of what you get is great so check this place out.
