We loved the blend of small/shareable items and more substantial main courses. The baked clams and crispy cauliflower were fantastic first dishes. For the main dishes, the braised beef short ribs with Parmesan polenta— (outstanding) and the rigatoni bolognese (fantastic) were standouts. And we had to try the desserts— tirmamisu, pistachio ricotta and limoncello mascarpone were outstanding. Great service and the remodeled restaurant is comfortable and vibrant. My only feedback is the cocktails— while quite tasty— were pretty small. Overall, this is a great addition to the metrowest area.

We decided to sit at the bar and found ourselves engaged in conversation with a fabulous bartender. We throughly enjoyed our appetizers and entrees; accompanied by a great dessert. This is authentic Greek cuisine and well worth taking a walk through the menu. The Greek beer and wine selection is amazing, the grape leaves are delicious, dips are as well. The octopus is one of my favorites too. Try the eggplant and salmon, but truly the meats are prepared as well to perfection. I recommend making a reservation. Enjoy!!!
