The staff was very nice and it was all fine. But really quite over priced for the quality of food and service. Our group of eight had a fun evening so perhaps I shouldn’t complain, but for the prices being charged I would have expected more. I felt a little like a tourist.

The tiger prawns were mushy not good. Prices too high for what you get. Diet Coke was flat and it cost 6.75 really!!!!! This ain’t the Four Seasons far from it! Service was interesting.

Everything about the experience was fabulous. We chose the theater pre fixe menu option. The food was delicious, portions were great. The almond pudding was different. Cold and gelatinous which was unexpected. But would definitely recommend and come again.

We eat at Kellari every time we visit NY, very authentic with focus on fish. Seems underrated relative to other NY Greek restaurants, however, it is packed with customers most nights.
