Delicious! Every dish was perfect. I had the lentil soup as a starter, the branzino dorado as my entree and Greek yogurt as dessert. Absolutely perfect flavors and portions.

Fantastic food, a lot healthy, creative, delicious options on the menu. We did not shy away from eggplant, cauliflower, cabbage, dorado - all were prepared with a twist, perfectly charred and seasoned. Compliments to the chef for creativity and the staff for excellent service. Will be back!

The food -- feta sousami, mousaka and gyro platters -- was fresh, hot and delicious. The service was on-the-spot, even as the restaurant filled up - by 7:00 pm there was a waiting line. Definitely a place to consider when you're in the area at mealtime.
