  My go to place for Greek food is usually in Astoria but decided to try this place since it’s closer. I have to say, it did not disappoint!! Overall food was good especially the squid pasta with lobster, sword fish and branzino. Owner is a bit quiet maybe just nervous but very nice. Will definitely be back

  Few issues with store. First is that there are numerous potholes at the side road entrance from hemsptead turnpike. Having this not fixed immediately is neglect and dangerous. Vehicles travel 40 mph+ there is no time to slow and maneuver around holes on a tight turn. Second is we are not allowed to wait inside or the between the entrance in freezing cold for pickup orders which are not ready 20 minutes after promised pickup time.

  First time diners at this lovely, bright and airy restaurant. The meal was DELICIOUS! We started with well prepared pomegranate and fig martinis, perfect and not too sweet. We had the grilled halloumi which they serve over grilled tomato slices, a very generous app. We also shared a Greek salad, so fresh and enough for 4 people, we were only 2 so we took half home. I had the NY Strip, which was wonderful and perfectly cooked and a bargain at $42! As good as any high end steakhouse. ( I cheated with hand cut fries, and I was glad I did!), my friend had the branzino which she loved. We finished off with the Greek yogurt cheesecake topped with cherries, amazing! The staff were without exception warm and inviting ( and well trained)!My new favorite Greek restaurant!!

  Took our daughter out for her birthday which happened to be valentines day. We were shocked to be told they had a prefixed valentines day dinner and no other choices. They didn't indicate that on their website. Needless to say the menu was extremely overpriced. I think they may have overbooked the restaurant considering the size of the restaurant. As such it an extremely long time to bring the appetizers and all the other courses. They also didn't hire enough staff to meet the expected busy day. As such the few staff were obviously overwhelmed. We had to ask many times for water. The food was excellent but overall service was subpar
