A lovely gem of a restaurant! We were greeted by Diego, who spoke to us periodically through our meal, making sure everything was fine. We shared a Greek salad, which rivals one of our favorite restaurants in Florida! For our main courses, I had a huge piece of flounder prepared with tomatoes, onions potatoes and feta in a delicious wine sauce. My husband ordered the chicken kabob, which was juicy chunks of chicken with freshly grilled vegetables and basmati rice. We were treated by the owner to a sampling of incredible baklava and homemade cheesecake! We had to take home most of the dessert, due to being a little overstuffed from all the delicious food! I highly recommend PHILIA!

We came here for Restaurant Week when they offered 3 different dinner menus, depending on what you wanted and if you wanted an alcoholic drink, which was nice. The food was excellent and delicious. The interior of the restaurant was beautiful-looked like you were outside. And the service was excellent, accommodating us needing to leave within and hour.
