It was great! Have been here many times for drinks and first time today for food. Will come back for sure. Although I do think it’s a bit pricey.

Wonderful server delicious food and fun atmosphere - as it got busy if got on the loud side which was tolerable for me but might’ve been less so for my parents if I had brought them with me so it worked out that I hadn’t - I can understand why it’s a popular place and not much they can do about the noise when you get a few big happy parties arriving at the same time - lots of birthdays celebrations besides my own - pretty awesome they don’t go over the top the sparkles last just the right amount of time per person to keep it fun anytime they bring that to any table.

We wanted to love this place. We booked a 10pm reservation bc we were told the DJ does not start until 11. When we got there the DJ was on and we thought it was going to be a perfect night. We were told the kitchen was closing early so were rushed to order, our drinks were getting picked up as we were in the middle of drinking them, and were rushed out the door including them turning on bright lights and turning off music mid meal. We will not be returning. There are far better Greek places in Chi that know how hospitality works.
