    Mythos on a Saturday night was busy with many families. The service people were kept hopping with so many patrons. It felt a bit rushed. My friends and I shared the Pikilia (4 dips) and a grilled cheese appetizer. The greek dips were about average, but the Saganaki was delicious. For entrees,I had the grilled shrimp, my husband had the grilled red snapper and my friend enjoyed the grilled salmon. My large shrimp was well prepared, and nicely seasoned. It was a large portion size too. My friend enjoyed her salmon. It was grilled exactly to her liking. My husband’s red snapper was a bit undersized but delicious. They did a nice job in deboning it. We will return.

    Initially we waited a little while to be served, but soon after service greatly improved. We ordered and were quickly brought appetizers and then the entrees. All enjoyed their entrees. The lobster quesadillas which on the special menu were delicious. The desserts we shared of churros and tres leches were very tasty. Excellent Mexican cuisine enjoyed by all.

    The ambience made me feel like I was actually in Greece. The food was excellent. An elevated experience that did not exclude the classics but made them with unexpected enhancements that truly delighted our tastebuds. My family and I felt as if we had traveled to Manhattan for dinner. Just wonderful!
