The staff is excellent. Shout outs too, Kayla and Ashley, who have served us many times. Only comment other than that is that we really miss the Mosaka vegetarian casserole which we enjoyed many times.

All the food was delicious, our server was really sweet and helpful, and the space is so fun! Definitely stop in, and especially if you used to go to Old Port Tavern and want to be floored by the remodel of the space.

We shared a delicious roasted lamb shank with orzo in a tasty tomato sauce. A perfect dish for a cold February evening. I also had a very good taramasalata appetizer. Our waitress, was just terrific and very cordial, and was quite helpful in providing both of us with a taste of a couple of wines to settle on what we’d like to have. We’re already looking forward to our next visit.
