Excellent friendly service bu our server (Lexus — her actual name, not just a car brand). The fish (trout and 2 different forms of salmon) in our party members’ orders was done to perfection and the sides were equally excellent. The beet salad and salmon tartare starters were wonderful. More noisy than usual because of large, festive holiday season groups having a great time even on a Wednesday night.

10/10 for the staff at Mida. We had a reservation and our table was running behind by a bit so the team went above and beyond to upgrade our experience. We were so impressed and grateful! As regulars, the food and ambiance is always exceptional. Highly recommend!

Krasi delivers a bustling, upscale Mediterranean dining experience with standout Greek dishes and attentive service in a slightly cramped setting. Although my table by the door felt drafty and some offerings, like the octopus, seemed pricey for their portions, the tableside tzatziki preparation and especially the flavorful, filling lamb made it worthwhile. The knowledgeable staff’s thoughtful wine recommendations and the overall quality of ingredients make Krasi an ideal choice for special occasions or a memorable date night.

We had a great experience with dinner for five. There wasn't a single dish that the group didn’t enjoy. Service was attentive and spot on with good recommendations. Can’t wait to come back with my wife.
