    My husband and I went here for Valentines dinner and it was delicious! My seafood grits had flavored, fresh seafood packed in every bite and his steak was cooked medium to perfection. My daiquiri drink was refreshing. Ohhhh and the caramel cake, yum! All recommended by our attentive waiter, Eyo. Thanks for the chill vibes and food! We will be back!

    I had the crabcake and my wife had the parmesan trout and both were fantastic! Her trout was very favorable with the spices and parmesan coating. The served me a real Maryland flavored crabcake. The coleslaw was the best I ever had because it wasn't too sweet, and you could taste the vinegar which was the perfect tart flavor that was needed. Many coleslaw recipes taste cheap and too sweet but theirs was balanced. The fries rival McDonald's fries and before you laugh think about how perfect McDee's makes their french fries. The special Valentine Strawberry and Chocolate Mousse cake was a perfect ending to our meal. It had a little scoop of vanilla ice cream, strawberry sauce and white chocolate heart stuck into the cake. We will bring back our family in our second visit. Plus, our server was the best!

    Our second time here, and it was just as amazing as the first time. First and most important, the food is amazing. I love Greek/Mediterranean food, and this is literally just as good as when I was in Santorini. Fresh, Very flavorful, expertly prepared. Service is very friendly and prompt. It's a lovely, simple place, clean and welcoming. Of special note, get the fried cheese (Saganaki), and the grilled Octopus is fantastic. The lamb chops are amazing. Seriously, just get everything 😁

    We had a party of six and we dined on a Tuesday night so it was definitely a low-key night where the restaurant was mainly empty so that reflects the ambience rating and the noise level rating… The appetizers were quite good. The entrées were questionable and the hamburger was very bad… The dessert in the service were excellent. Try the Dubai chocolate and the hostess was gracious enough to give my son a complementary birthday cake.
