We were really disappointed this visit. This was our second time at this restaurant. Unfortunately Molos is having growing pains because our server had 15+ tables & tried his best but could not provide satisfactory attention to each table. We waited 15 minutes before even being acknowledged. He thanked us for our patience and while not his direct fault it did put a serious damper on our meal. The food was really good though the surf & turf specials were overpriced & we weren’t asked what sides & ended up with potatoes we didn’t want. This was a completely opposite experience from our first visit & we will be waiting awhile to consider returning.

We had an incredible dining experience at Molos Greek Restaurant! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and an atmosphere that transported us straight to Greece. We ordered the Pastichio, Moussaka, and Saganaki, and every bite was absolutely delicious. The Saganaki was perfectly flambéed at the table, creating a fun and flavorful start to our meal. The Moussaka had the perfect balance of creamy béchamel and rich, spiced meat, while the Pastichio was comforting and packed with authentic flavors. Beyond the fantastic food, the waterfront views were breathtaking, making the experience even more special. Whether you're looking for an intimate dinner or a gathering with friends and family, Molos Greek Restaurant is a must-visit. We can’t wait to come back for more! Highly recommend!

We’ve been here before and it was fantastic. It was OK for V day dinner. Several menu items were not available which was disappointing because we enjoy the lamb shank, Greek donuts and chocolate cake. I got the filet duo which was over cooked but the Greek potatoes were outstanding!

This was our second time there with friends. The food is amazing. And the service is very friendly. Ambience is great too. Very few really great Greek restaurants in the suburbs, but this is one of the best.

Food was ok. I ordered the Greek baked chicken. It was mostly cold, not hot, just somewhat warm. The rest of the food was decent. Our server was not very attentive. Another server had to come ask if we needed anything as he noticed our server had disappeared. The other server had to provide our check. I would not return.
