    I had a fantastic dining experience at Dio Deka. This Greek-Mediterranean gem truly delivers on flavor and hospitality. The yogurt was absolutely delicious, and the sauce made with it was just as incredible—rich, tangy, and the perfect complement to the dishes. The little amuse-bouche surprises between courses were a great touch, making the meal feel extra special. As for the main dishes, the lamb chops were cooked to perfection—juicy, tender, and full of flavor. The meatballs were equally amazing, well-seasoned and so satisfying. On top of the great food, the service was outstanding. Our server was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made the experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for amazing Greek-Mediterranean food with warm hospitality.

    With a name like The Village Pub you might envision a loud, local, low-dining experience but that couldn’t be further from the truth. With a great menu, helpful staff, and beautiful but intimate dining room, The Village Pub is a high-end dining experience without the bougie baggage of haute establishments. The cocktails are fun and balanced and the menu has some real knockouts: The plating and flavor on the Sunchoke Veloutê was very appealing. The Seared Hokkaido Scallops might have been the best scallop dish I’ve ever had. My wife loved the Crab Risotto. What made the experience special is connecting with staff, talking about dishes and recommendations, and having the kitchen send out some samples of things to try. Thanks Village Pub for a great night out!

    Evvia is one of my favorite all time restaurants. The food is consistently excellent and the service impeccable. Favorite dishes include the spreads, the Evvia salad, Greek salad, avgolemono soup, anything with lamb and the whole fish. The pasta never disappoints and if you want a hearty dish their moussaka is the very best outside Greece.

    From start to finish our experience at Plumed Horse was nothing short of phenomenal. Every dish was delightfully evocative, both taste and presentation. The service was also incredible. A perfect balance of professionalism and warmth. Everyone at Plumed Horse clearly takes great pride and joy in their work and it shows!
