    Estia never disappoints. Any visit to this restaurant is guaranteed success. The food is always delicious, service is top-notch. The servers always ask and understand whether you want to relax and enjoy your dinner slowly or if you're heading to a show and need to speed things up to be out in time for a performance, and accommodate accordingly. The horatiki salad is a staple and always delicious. Our kids love the Estia Chips (eggplant and zucchini chips), as well as calamari. The fish is always fresh and delicious. Our 9 year old son, loves their lamb chops. And the coffee and desserts, especially their Gelato are always a hit. Whenever we're planning a visit to the Kimmel Center or the Academy of Music, our kids always ask for dinner at Estia.
