    The food was amazing and we love the atmosphere. The service was very slow. It was difficult to get water refills and we never got the extra pita bread we ordered for our dipping spreads. We will definitely be back!

    Wait staff and our busboy were excellent. Food was very good. But the front of the house is clueless. I will never sit in that outdoor room again. I don’t appreciate that the seating designation has anything to do with sitting in the room. The place is filthy but the busboy went way out his way to take care of things. Management is really poor!!

    We enjoyed our food and it was a great take on Greek food! Our seating on the heated patio was nice and the bar was a nice shape and provided ample seating. The service was very attentive. It was however a limited menu that offered everything ala-cart and everything was very expensive. Some portions were shareable, but entrees were over $45 each and would be small to share. Overall Dinner for 2 with 2 cocktails, 2 appetizers, 1 side 1 entree was $190.00 that’s steep! Will come back to see if menu has changed and bring more people to share..

    The food overall was very good, however we were looking forward to the 18-hour gyro that we've had at Lyra but were VERY disappointed ... Tasted NOTHING like the amazing Lyra version and the spices and sides that accompany the gyro were different... Have to say, Lyra is better

    The service was awfull, we waited for around 25 for the server to come and take the order. Once one of the ladies finished her cocktail the served picked up the old cocktail poured what was left into the new cocktail, it was hilarios. Then she took the phone to one of our ladies from the table without even asking and checked the hour. At the end she asked us to pick up the the plates and cups so she can clean up the table.

    Food was fresh...can't stress that enough. All the dishes were excellent. Each dish can serve about 2 people. We started with the Rock, Shrimp Feta, and Tuna Tartare. Entrees were the Horiatiki salad, Roasted Halibut, and a lentil dish which can't remember the name. Amazing taste and SO fresh. Drinks were also very tasty. Live dj. The environment was so energetic. Was not expecting such vibrancy for dinner. Great time. Will be coming back.

    Slightly disappointing. We ordered the full order of gyro and found out it doesn’t come with French fries like the 1/2 order of gyro does. Wouldn’t bother me except it’s said above everything in that category included fries and it was more than double the price of the 1/2 gyros. Also, we asked for extra tsaziki sauce and when we received the bill they charged us $5.00 for it. The 1/2 order of gyro comes with the same amount as the full order. Felt a bit nickel and dimed. Beautiful space but not sure I’d go back. Gyro meat was good but accompaniments were very average.
