    The place was clean but the music was a bit loud. Food was fresh Service was good overall but some of the waiters do NOT speak English and hard to communicate

    Excellent. Our dinner for 4 was perfection. The prix fix menu had plenty of delicious choices. The service was professional, polite, courteous, and attentive. We all enjoyed our meals, and desserts. The coffee was hot and refreshing. Philia was a good find, we'll be back!!

    First let me give kudos to the food, everything was superb. The only dish I wasn’t too fond of was the fish & chips. But everything else was impeccable including the drinks (I’d only recommend that the bartenders strain the drinks and not serve all the pieces of fruit and mint in the glass as these can get stuck to the straw. Also, servers need to be mindful of touching silverware tip with their fingers as this can be unsanitary. Otherwise, it was a positive experience and I will be returning.

    Delicious food! The appetizer pita/ feta and pepper spread is outstanding! Greek salad is enough for two, and all the shrimp dishes are very tasty. Grilled Salmon and chicken kebabs are also delicious choices!
