    The hostess was a bit rude and didn’t smile or even acknowledge anyone really, but the rest of the staff were great. The hostess in red was sweet and stopped by with recommendations, but the other young girl wasn’t really welcoming. Our server and the bussers were great. Prices are phenomenal especially if you’re looking at doing the chicago menu. Food was amazing, and the restaurant was beautiful. I’d strongly recommend the horaki, the gyro, & the chocolate cake.

    2/8/25 visit. The waiter was great. The food was phenomenal. Ambiance was also good. Drinks were great. Music loud but acceptable. The only issue I had was recent. We go there often … . When I called to let the hostess know i was running behind about 10-15 minutes and to let my party know as they would be there on time. My reservation was 6:15. My guest was there on time. The hostess started telling me about a later reservation after 8 pm and I said I’m just letting you know as a courtesy , and I didn’t understand what she was conveying. Because I knew there was a 15 minute window I’m allowed. The female host repeated the after 8 pm time. And I asked if she was cancelling my reservation as that is not what I wanted because my other party members would be there on time. The female hostess just hung up on me after I asked on the clarification. I thought it was the rudest thing anyone could do. Very unprofessional. I called back to be sure my reservation was not being cancelled. The gentleman host was very very pleasant professional and kind. He apologized for the female hostess and said my reservation is just fine. I would never hire someone as an employee that has no tolerance for questions and clarification. If she hangs up on people /customers often because she’s impatient or not tolerating of questions, I would not keep her as an employee. I own my own business and that’s not acceptable.

    The patio is the place to be for dinner. Beautiful ambiance. Enjoyed the Hummus and charred Beets! Yum. The Branzino was one of best I’ve ever had. And the Lamb Shank fell off the bone. We finished with the Portokalopita, and was so wonderful! Gabriella was terrific!

    Darwin, my server, was great. They were busy. I waited patiently to receive my appetizer. A slender gentlemen returned twice to refill water glasses for patrons around me on the beautiful enclosed patio. I sat in the center table of both patrons as he skipped me on both occasions. Perhaps he only serves certain tables, perhaps he was instructed to skip me or maybe it was his choice? There were only 3 of us. Nonetheless, I'm glad that I wasn't dying of thirst. I didn't flag him down, but I definitely noticed. And yes, I visuably needed a refill. Great Food!

    I booked this restaurant for my moms birthday.. our rsvp was at 8:45pm to arrive but then I got a call on the actual day to change it .. so I had to make arrangements to tell everyone our time has changed I didn’t like that at all I think the times should’ve been on open table for me to see available times .. so after all my auntie made it firsts to hold our table cause at the time still trying to get hair done and etc lol.. but we made it the waiter and everyone else was really nice he let us know that the kitchen closes at 9pm when we arrived at 8;30pm .. we started our order around 8:50 pm the food was soooo good .. I asked my family what y’all rate the restaurant everybody said 10/10 and we all will definitely go back I’m still tasting that chicken it was seasoned so good with lemon and the potatoes was sooo good

    We dined on the restaurant week lunch menu. The food was exquisite. Portions were generous and delicious. The service was very slow, it took 2 hours to dine. Our waiter was new, but I’m not sure it was all his fault, the kitchen was slow. We asked for coffee with dessert and it finally came as we were on our last bites of dessert. The manager knew we were unhappy and reduced our bill. It was very nice that she was concerned. We would return for the delicious food and would hope the service today was just an aberration.

    We had lunch here, service was pretty good. The food was average at best, overrated average Greek food. We had the tuna tartar ( smaller side but tasted good) , zucchini and eggplant chips ( not bad) , the lamb gyros (, I ate 1/3 of it ) very greasy and not great tasting ( I would pass on this) the chicken skewer was average. Good atmosphere , food average at best.

    The food per dish is very little. The waiter forgot to provide spoon for soup nor new forks after taking away used ones.

    Solid restaurant week menu. The chargrilled octopus was outstanding as were the gyros-sizzling in the cast iron plate.
