Food was really delicious, I wish I had known how large the portion sizes were before ordering, we ended up ordering way too much food and couldn’t finish it. Flavor was amazing, if you’re not familiar with Greek food, it would be nice to know what each word or style meant. I could hardly hear our server. She was very quiet, but she was very polite and Helpful when we did have questions. I was a little disappointed that we couldn’t get happy hour deals if we were sitting in the dining area. It was only available at the bar which was not advertised on OpenTable or on the website, so I would’ve liked to have known beforehand.

Just book the reservation. There is not a single bad thing on the menu. The service is excellent. This was my 4th time at Taxim but my first after visiting Greece a few months ago. I felt like I was back in the town of Elounda in Crete. This is a truly authentic experience. Amazing evening!!
