We have dinner at Estia 3-5 times per year. It's always excellent in every category. It's pricey but always feels worth it. Last evening we had the halibut and the moussaka... both wonderful. Each serving of moussaka is baked in its own dish, creating lots of delicious edges. The Greek wines are are usually great choices. My glass of agiorgitiko sang with the moussaka. For me, the highlight was a mezze -- the sardines were fresh and scrumptious!
