Amazing gem! We had dinner on the back patio and it was amazing! Food was outstanding and the drink menu was soooo good. And gluten free pita??? Seriously, best eats I've had in a long time. This is my new go-to!

After many positive reviews from friends and on line, we went. The service and staff were terrific. It possibly could have just been on off night for the chef. The fried calamari was terrific, though. It was lightly battered and tender. The octopus fell short as the texture was very mushy. The lamb shank was tender but little seasoning. Even the sauce with the helopita pasta was bland. The dish needed herbs, garlic, and seasonings. They were very kind in bringing a dessert in honor of my friend's birthday. We will come back at another time when the back patio is open which hopefully will have some atmosphere to make it feel more like a Greek taverna. We will give it another try then and try the whole fish dishes then. We would recommend it to friends with our above critique.

Delightful lunch on the way to the Brooklyn Museum. So worth the extra few blocks - to walk off the very generous portions (too delicious to leave behind!). Charming staff / lovely environment.

We enjoyed our meal, beet salad appetizer was large and delicious,, bread pudding and espresso was outstanding! Lovely atmosphere and friendly service! Our only problem was the whole red snapper ,a special that night! The fish was very fresh, but was very dry and slightly over cooked! It said the fish was filleted, but we found way too many bones !Otherwise, a lovely experience!
