Absolutely fantastic. I moved from the area over 10 years ago and I still make an effort to eat here any time I visit.

Appears to be old, reliable neighborhood Mediterranean food staple—kabobs, and more adventurous Greek or Middle Eastern fare. Went for mid-week, early dinner for the first time, and it appeared they were seating everyone on the right side of the restaurant, instead of spreading us out. Kind of odd, but not that objectionable. Servers were working hard but spread a little thin, and the restaurant wasn’t THAT busy. Steady stream of take-out delivery folks coming in, sporadic in-restaurant diners. Pacing on drinks, appetizer, food orders was a little sporadic, but you could tell the servers were working hard, together with bus staff, but they could use another body. Food was tasty and portions were good. Cold (supposed to be that way) octopus appetizer was good, but it’s out of a can or jar with Greek salad dressing on it. I like it, because I’ve had it before, but others may not if you don’t expect it. Wife and I shared chicken and beef kabobs, and the meat was tender, cooked correctly, but it had the same Greek salad dressing on it. Sides of rice pilaf were out of a box or bag, and my steamed broccoli was frozen and not fresh. None of it was bad, and it was satisfying, but it could be better if actually made fresh. While overall, the value was good, I was later disappointed to find out that their credit card coding recognizes them as a retail merchant and not a “restaurant,” thereby, I didn’t receive my credit card points for a “restaurant” or “dining experience.” Not sure if that saves this restaurant money on their swipes, but it didn’t save me a few more bucks like I expected. Strange.

So much fun on a Friday night! We’ve been to Greece twice so we are probably pickier than most about food.

The food and service were excellent. The show was great. My granddaughter even went up a couple of times when they were doing the line dance and when the belly dancer was giving lessons. She really liked it.

Have dined here a few times but this instance was disappointing. Food was excellent as always but when one of us ordered a Greek beer, we were informed they had no Greek beer at all. Strange since it’s a Greek restaurant on a Saturday night. The bathrooms were out of order and we were informed to go to the restaurant next store to use theirs. It also seemed that the AC was not working properly.

What a pleasant surprise. The restaurant had an extensive menu of reasonably priced yummy meals and rapid service. We are looking forward to returning on a weekend evening to see the Greek and belly dancers.
