Expertly accommodated a party of 17! ros - Given a table with lots of space and arranged perfectly. Nice clean environment and friendly staff. We ordered family style and the food from the salads and appetizers all the way through the entrees was very good. The courses were timed perfectly. The Greek salads were loaded with feta and appropriately, no lettuce. The octopus was tender and had a great char. The Sea Bass was to die for. And they fileted them tableside. Yum! Also the Baklava was maybe the best I had ever eaten. Cons - Only 1 - The fried calamari left a lot to be desired. Very few tentacles and smallish pieces with a considerable breading that masked the flavor of the squid. I expected top shelf calamari from a Greek restaurant. All in all I would recommend and I would return.
