    We celebrated my 68th birthday here at Lagar. I had driven by a few times and it looked so festive that I chose to dine here for my birthday. I was not disappointed! Most people were dining on the patio but we went to the dining room where we had it to ourselves. The patio was livelier but I wanted a more intimate setting. The Christmas tree was tastefully decorated as well as the room. Now of course to the food: Delicious, plentiful with perfect sides. My steak was done to my specifications and perfect. Our waiter was attentive without being intrusive. Overall, I give Lagar my highest compliments!

    We were a party of 6 (long-time - 50 years) friends who met at this restaurant for lunch for a first time as it is 1/2 way between our respective areas. Chose it from online reviews. Asked for a round table so we could talk more easily -- we got that Ordered an assortment of appetizers and some ordered from the lunch special and two ordered chicken parm. Everything was very good-- (one of my friends gave the host his suggestion of how to prepare chicken parm -- he said it was good but just too thick- maybe pound it more -- well, if you were to know my friend-- just ignore him !!) anyway -- we all enjoyed this restaurant and as for the waiter -- TOTALLY COOL and really did a GREAT JOB providing us with EXCELLENT SERVICE throughout our more than 2 hours there.. wish I knew this server's name (told to us but we were all talking too much and I can't hear anyway) but, if you go there for lunch this waiter will be outstanding in many ways.. all in all -- anyone living in this area has a great place for Greek (and some Italian) food! Enjoy!
