    I had the village salad with a piece of salmon. The best salmon I have ever had! The flaming cheese was as good as the old Parthenon in Greek town. My wife had the fried zucchini and Greek pasta which she declared excellent! The single estate Greek white wine was perfect! The halibut is to die for! Molos are fish experts! That said, the lamb chops are fabulous..,

Every dish I've tried has been fantastic, bursting with flavor and crafted with care. Whether you're indulging in their savory entrees or delicious appetizers, Thassos consistently serves up culinary perfection. Highly recommend the Lamb Chops and the Bone-in Ribeye.

    Made in Italy is always a treat with exceptional food, a nice wine list, friendly and attentive service, all at great prices. The restaurant was quite busy tonight with a few groups a bit boisterous creating a fairly loud atmosphere (which is normally not the case). Still had a very enjoyable dinner. Made in Italy is one of our favorite restaurants and they never disappoint!
