The food was very good and a good value. We had five people ordered a whole chicken two extra sides and a pizza with drinks. Fed all of us for $120. My wife has a lot of allergies and this menu is well marked.

I made a rather last minute reservation for four at Mykonos Meze. Procrastination like this often leads to disappointment. Not this time! Our Christmas evening experience was incredible, beginning before we even walked through the doors: the brightly lite Christmas tree twinkling in the front window made for a frame-worthy picture. The staff were just the right level of friendly, and it wasn't long before we were made to feel like longtime customers, though we had never been here. The ambience inside with the magenta accent lighting, table lamps and holiday decorations, was magical. Most importantly, the food was amazing. All of it! We can't wait to return, try different things and really become those regulars.
