    Great food, great service, the staff here really get the job done. Everyone’s helping busing tables bringing food making sure that the clientele are happy. The best Greek meal we’ve had ever, don’t miss the baklava.

    We went as a big group for Greek night on a Thursday and we all absolutely loved everything! The food was beautiful and took me right back to Greece. Our server Emily was great and made our experience flawless. The Greek show was very fun!! Would highly recommend!
