    Dinner with my son, such a lovely time. We love coming here the food is always great! Best ever is our favorite mushroom toast, delicious! We ordered the clam pizza with fontina cheese which was perfect and also my favorite the grilled swordfish over bits of butternut squash in a creamy sauce. Oh and don’t forget to order the sourdough ice cream for dessert. You will not regret! Can’t wait to dine here again.

    Krasi exceeded my expectations with its bold Greek flavors and incredible wine selection. The crispy chicken skin was a highlight, pairing perfectly with the htapiti. The charcuterie board was outstanding, and both the apaki and patates were flawlessly prepared. The wine menu is exceptional, offering an impressive variety of Greek and orange wines, making for a truly elevated dining experience. A must-visit spot for anyone looking to explore Greek cuisine and wine at its finest. I’ll definitely be returning!
