    Food and service was good! I was disappointed that they no longer serve two of my favorite appetizers, the grilled sausage and the baked goat cheese w apricots! Also, they no longer serve the small plates an Friday and Saturday! 😕

    We had a very enjoyable time at Greek Taverna. Our server was a young man who did a great job of taking care of us. The food was very good and the portions were generous. This is a great place to bring children and a big group of friends. It has a very welcoming atmosphere.

    This is a good restaurant with great service and in a great location. Montclair is a fun city and this is a fun menu. Although the descriptions are authentic, the food was not overly seasoned like many Greek places This is a great place for a group, as you can share and mix and match It is a bit loud, but it is a in pub for all intent and purpose Keep it on your list of fun spots in the area

    The tables should not have been so close together. I understand that restaurants want business and business for tables of 2 is booming on Valentine’s Day but, it was a bit uncomfortable. We’re still dealing with the after math of Covid as well so I was just a little surprised to see such little room between people. Other than that, it was great

    I met a friend for dinner who I hadn’t seen in a while. We were given ample time to talk and enjoy a glass of wine and a leisurely meal that was delicious! We appreciated that we were not rushed and allowed to stay virtually until the restaurant closed. It was a Thursday night and there was not a lot of volume; it might be different on a busy weekend. Did I mention that my lamb chops were perfectly done?

    Service was awesome and accommodating. Everything was provided in nice sized portions and to our liking. Can't say enough about the service. I forget his name, which is my fault, but he was the best. special order on the fish, extra dessert and many other simple perks not found in many restaurants. Highly recommend! and the food was really good! had the leftovers on Monday and enjoyed just as well. Going back soon. thanks
