   This was our second visit, and we enjoyed it as much as the first! Portions are generous, very flavorful, and fairly priced for the quality of ingredients. All of the staff are polite and effective, creating a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. We can't wait to return!

   we sat at the bar and Jay was a wonderful bartender as well as server. He allowed us to taste a few wines before deciding on a bottle and recommended some delicious dishes

   We had an amazing dinner for our anniversary. I forget our server's name (possibly George or something that starts with a J?) but he truly loved what he did and it showed. We split the Vlach Giorti and enjoyed every option on the platter. Definitely make a reservation and expect a possible delay just incase

   We sat at the bar , served promptly while we waited for our party to arrive. The plates and napkins on the bar were off putting but pushed aside. Our table finally was available. Waiter was very very attentive. Possibly a little too much. The noise was very loud. Could not hear others talk. Pretty room and good location for our gang. Super pricey but the food was extremely fresh .

   Menu is super and staff was very, very attentive and accommodating. Totally pleasurable experience. They do need to get some real wine glasses though. Stemless would be fine . You can’t drink it out of a highball glass if you are serious about your wine program.

   ⭐️Excellent food, drinks, and service from start to finish! Second time visiting and both times were exceptional. 🍷 We had house white wine and flight of Greek liqueurs along with wild greens pita and three dips to start (fava, eggplant, tarama). Eggplant dip in particular was a standout with smoky depth of flavor. Pita was made with cornmeal instead of wheat/filo which was a new recipe to us but which we really enjoyed. 🍽️ Then we all shared three other dishes with sides: shrimp with gigandes in tomato, boar with egg noodles, and beef cheeks with trahana (sourdough pasta). All of these dishes along with the beets, cooked greens, and oven potatoes we got as sides were flavorful and superbly prepared. The heartiness of these dishes was perfect for a cold winter day! 🍮 We were pretty full at this point but could not resist getting a couple of desserts - bougatsa (like a sweet cream filled phyllo pie) and a baklava dish, each paired with a unique house-made ice cream. 🥂At the end of our meal we were treated by the house to an aperitif of masticha liqueur along with two (delicious) non-alcoholic aperitif options for those in the party who were not drinking. This kindness is typical of Greek restaurant hospitality, but the attention to detail in the fact that two members of our party of six were not drinking alcohol is in my mind above and beyond and indicative of all the attention to detail in both service and food design and preparation at Bar Vlaha. I hope to return again soon! 🇬🇷♥️

    Great dinner to celebrate a birthday. Loved the salad, fried mushrooms, wild boar stew, and baklava. Grilled chicken was a bit disappointing.
