Restaurant was completely packed. I like a lively atmosphere but we couldn’t talk across the table without yelling. Could barely hear waiter explaining the menu.

Food was excellent, the slow roasted lamb was hands down the best lamb I've ever had. Doused with a lemony vinaigrette- wow just wow! Service was impeccable, Theo our server was attentive without being intrusive. Would definitely visit again, great for a romantic dinner.

WE WENT DURUNG EARLY DINNER HOURS 4PM-6PM - PARTY OF 3 ADULTS. WE WERE SITTED PROMTLY WITH A RESERVATION. PLACE WAS A BIT LOUD. SERVICE WAS PROMPT. WE WERE INFORMED THAT FOOD IS SERVED FAMILY STYLE AND WERE SUGGESTED NOT TO OVER-ORDER.. WE LISTENTED TO THE SUGGESTION AND ACTED AS SUCH. WE ORDERED A GRILLED OCTOPUS $29.00 - RECEIVED ONLY ONE TENTACLE. ALTHOUGH IS WAS GRILLED ALMOST PERFECT, FOR 3 PEOPLE THAT WAS NOT ENOUGH AND FOR THE AMOUNT OF FOOD RECEIVED IT WAS WAY OVERPRICED. WE ALSO ORDERED A SIDE ORDER IN LIEU OF AN APPETIZER, GRILLED CAULIFLOWER, WHICH WAS OK, NOTHING SPECTACULAR. FOR SHARABLE ENTRE WE ORDERED Deconstructed Pastitsio SHORT RIB PASTA, AND LAMB GYRO. PASTA WAS TASTY BUT NOT ENOUGH TO SHARE. LAMB GYRO WAS GOOD BUT ONLY CAME WITH 1 PITA BREAD FOR 3 PEOPLE. ADDITIONAL PITA BREAD ORDER WAS $4.00. WE ENDED UP ORDERING HALIBUT DISH, IT WAS $44.00 ... IT WAS GOOD AS WELL. THE WAITER DID FORGET TO BRING ANOTHER SIDE WE ORDERED. OVERALL, IT WAS A GOOD EXPERIENCE: FOOD WAS GOOD. SERVICE WAS PROMPT, PRICES WERE TOO HIGH. DEF NOT A REPEAT PLACE.
