The stunning restaurant, which is first of its kind in Philadelphia, will transport guests to the Greek Islands with an atmosphere reminiscent of an inviting Mediterranean home & a menu of authentic specialties, simply prepared, that represent the best of Greek cuisine. The restaurant specializes in whole grilled fish which are flown in from the Greek Islands, the shores of Morocco, Tunisia, & Portugal. Guests are able to choose from Estia’s expansive display & watch chefs cook their fish to perfection over a charcoal grill in the sparkling open kitchen.

    Filled a note on the reservation form that we had symphony tickets at 7pm….reservations were at 5:15. Spoke with server and we agreed leaving by 6:30 would work well. At 6:40 the server brought the bill and at 6:55 we finalized paying. Two in our party left ahead of the bill arriving. Very disappointed.

    Party of 19. A bit cramped at the table. Attentive service. Food only so so, except for octopus, shrimp, moussaka and grilled lamb chops. Lamb shank disappointing. Not hot enough either. Nevertheless, we had a great time. The sauvignon blanc was delicious. The tempranillo mediocre at best.. Proximity to Academy of music, parking and the Kimmel Center a big plus

    Delayed by traffic and needing to catch a show at the Academy, we needed fast service, our waiter delivered under challenging conditions. The food itself was fantastic: halibut, salmon and two perfect NY strips.

    Had a wonderful experience at Estia from door to door. Arrived 30 mins early, greeted with smiles and seated right away. Immediately greeted by our server, offered water and took drink orders. Server was attentive, honest, and knowledgeable about the menu. She hustled the entire night, working at least 6 tables like a champ. Drinks, fresh bread, food, and dessert were ALL amazing!!! Absolutely delicious. My woman was so impressed, she commented this is what she wants to have for her birthday in 4 months. The place is beautiful inside, so cozy, and decorated nicely for the holidays. Just a wonderful experience all the way around. Will definitely be returning.

    We went for lunch before the 5 o’clock performance of the Nutcracker. The pre-Theatre menu is a great deal. The food is awesome and Nick our server was lovely. We will definitely be back as Tia is a family favorite.
