    5 stars I absolutely love Molyvos — it’s one of my favorite spots in the city! The food is always fantastic — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it the perfect place for a relaxing meal. I especially want to mention my wonderful waiter, Despina. She is truly a gem — so kind, attentive, and caring. She always goes out of her way to make my dining experience special, and it’s such a pleasure to see her each time I visit. Her warmth and professionalism really elevate the entire evening. Highly recommend Molyvos — and if you’re lucky enough to be seated in Despina’s section, you’re in for a treat!

    My niece and I had a wonderful experience at Molyvos. We shared several small plates and our favorites were the gigante beans and red pepper spread. So flavorful! Our server was helpful at recommending items and very attentive. We will be back!

    We have been going to Molyvos for years now. Every time we have incredible service, food is absolutely delicious. Recommendations from our server are always on the mark. Noise level at a moderate level. We have tried many Greek restaurants in NYC, by far this is our best.

    The food was really good but the service was outstanding. On a busy Saturday night, seated next to a party of 15, I feared our small corner table would be overlooked. Instead we were treated like VIPs by attentive and professional waitstaff.

    Best Greek restaurant we've found. Not just an expensive fish restaurant posing as Greek---it has delicious Greek standbys, like Moussaka, as well as the fish. The grilled shrimp were delicious. The best time to go is when the pre=theater crowd has left.

    The waiter was unfriendly and, after we had only been seated for about five minutes, remarked, “Don’t know how much more time you need.” The comment felt rude and made me feel unwelcome. The food was just ok. There were bones in the branzino
