The servers seemed to keep forgetting we were there, even though we were right in the middle of the restaurant. And quite frankly, everything was way overpriced. I've had better Greek food from a food court.

The best Greek food in town! In true Mediterranean style, the service is not a fast pace, which I enjoy as nobody is trying to rush you out.

Expect to be there for the evening, enjoy your appies and wine, and leave happy and full.

We enjoyed the saganaki as an appetizer, and had the calamari dinner. Well battered and delicious, the Greek rice and potato were excellent. Wish there was more of the Greek salad it was so good. The home made hummus is also a must try! Only note was the cocktails weren’t the best, but only $7 which is far cheaper than anywhere else! Staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating.

When we ordered they were very pushy for appetizers which we declined. By the time our full meals came we waited approximately 45mins for them, and the server (think it’s the owner? slammed our plates down in front of us. A server only came to us about 4x in almost the two hours we were there. You could truly tell they gave all their attention to their regulars and neglected any new faces that came in. While the food was good, for how long it took to receive our meals plus the lack of service made the whole experience terrible. Even to just get our bill and a takeout box took a good 10 mins. We will not be back, and was extremely disappointed as we spent nearly $80 on two meals but the service ruined the whole experience. Fair warning to anyone who thinks about trying this restaurant out.

The chicken was tender and flavoured perfect. For our appie we had the spanikopita and it fresh made and perfectly crispy pastry on the outside. Overall the service was friendly and quick. Will definitely go again.
