For our appetizer, we had the Grilled octopus and Tzatziki. The octopus was chewy (not undercooked or overcooked) I would definitely recommend it. Tzatziki was refreshing and great as well.

The Linguine and Clams, this entry had the al dente linguine pasta with the white wine sauce and claws. Three of my party had this dish and let's just say it was all empty after dinner was done.

For dessert I had the single Banana rum napoleon. Surpringly it was too sweet which is what I liked about it and the bananas were fresh as well.

The restaurant gives welcoming and classy vibes. The bathroom seemed recently updated and very clean as well. This was my second time here and let's say I will be returning to the restaurant if I am ever back in town.

Nice spot for dinner with lots of options. Great for a date night or large gatherings. The ambiance of the spot was quaint and i loved that they had an open kitchen. The lamb ribs were tasty and so were the croquettes. We also ordered the lamb chops and spaghetti. Over I felt the food was just good. I would dine here again but I can’t say that I was wow’d. Our sever provided great recommendations and was really attentive.

Very lovely restaurant! Everything I ate here was amazing. I really enjoyed the linguine with clams, it has a really nice lemony flavor to it! Also highly recommend the phyllo shrimp for an appetizer. I was lucky to be able to try a few of the desserts because I came with a group. My favorite was the creme brulee! But the bananas foster was a close second! Service was also stellar!

Was my wife and I 1st time out here but we we're both very excited. We started thing off with the mezze trio, out of the 3 the hummus really grew on me. I got a grilled octopus, black bass, lamb soup, and the creamy polenta. My wife had the stuffed chicken and salad. Everything was really delicious. My server deboned the bass right in front of us and everyone thought it was so call including me. It was well seasoned and well cooked. The polenta was insane,almost brought me to tears. I tried to order more but the kitchen was closed. The lamb soup was really good, I also enjoyed my wifes smoked gouda salad with her. She really like her stuffed chicken. That grilled octopus.......man. Between the grilled octopus and polenta i was stuck. We also ordered delicious alchohol beverages, no complaints. Ordered to go desert; creme brulee for the kids(they loved it), and cinnamon cake for us, very good. The ambiance was nice and quiet. The server was very polite and active. We had a really good time. I recommend. Met the manager, she was very nice and polite, and had a good firm handshake. Im a veteran so that really moved me.

Lovely Mediterranean steakhouse. Came as a large party of 35 and were sat in a separated dining area with a separate bar. Inside is dimly lit and there’s an open kitchen style as you walk through the restaurant. Tried many different appetizers but loved the fresh sourdough with oil to start, the Caesar, and the pita bread with dips. I went with a 14 ounce ribeye, cooked medium rare and came out pretty close. Meat was good quality and the mushrooms and potatoes were also solid. Service was great, would highly recommend this spot.
