The service was attentive but not overbearing. My wife had the stuffed grape leaves, and I had the special which was spring rolls stuffed with spinach and feta. For the main I had the special and my wife had the fish in red wine sauce.

Branzino and zucchini chips were excellent. Really enjoyed the grape leaves as well, always a good marker of a quality Greek restaurant. The host/owner was such an entertaining and gracious host. Service was top notch. My bourbon accidentally fell off the table and they immediately brought me a refill. And the free dessert was very nice was to end the meal. Highly recommend.
