Moussaka Plate

What a gem! I've been here three times and the food is just fantastic. Amazing wines too that truly complement the meal. Also, top notch service. Friendly, efficient, knowledgeable and really hard working, well trained staff. I don't eat out very often, so when I do, I want a wonderful experience. This place checks all the boxes!

Gyro BOWL

I had looked at the menu before arriving and thought I knew what I wanted. Once there, my friend ordered the Gyro Bowl so I copied her. It was a build your own bowl. This was THE BEST meal I have had in a long time! We visited Greece this past summer and it took me right back there. The food was very fresh and tasty. The service was great! Cant wait for my next visit back
