    We usually go early about 4:30 when I get off work. (Part time. Dinner out is a perk of working part time after retirement) It’s always quiet! We had Victor as our server the last couple times. He makes every visit really fun!we always order the saganaki. Opa! Victor makes it special.we both had Gyros tonight. Great and left overs galore! We were happy once again! Can’t recommend it strongly enough.❤️

    Excellent food and service! We had the crabcakes which were delicious for an appetizer, and we had a side salad for myself, which was plenty, quite a nice serving! I also had the Wednesday special chicken that was excellent. My husband had the trios fillet which he always enjoys! The service was excellent ! And we love the ambience!

    Went for Christmas Eve. First time ever dining there. Menu was great. Appetizers were excellent. Great baked clams and the best fried calamari and shrimp with spectacular cocktail sauce. Margarita pizza was perfect. Strongly recommend the Zuppa do pesce. Sauce a bit of the thicker side than what I’m used to. But great flavor and generous amount of seafood. Excellent cannoli and gelato too. Our server was very attentive. Can’t wait to go back to try more entrees.

    Love the happy hour! Ambiance is comfortable and fun during the holidays! Great food. Great service. I normally don’t eat brussel sprouts but they are so good here the appetizer. Their truffle fries with garlic aioli is the best fries around. Nice serving sizes as well!
