We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful weather while the open panels gave the restaurant a nice indoor-outdoor feel. The food was just as delicious as I remembered. The grilled octopus was excellent, and we shared the stuffed shrimp and chicken souvlaki, both of which were tender, flavorful, and nicely plated with vegetables and potatoes. The drinks were great too. I had a Moscow Mule, and my cousin, a beer enthusiast, really enjoyed his IPA. One of the biggest highlights was the service. Our server was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. A manager also greeted us with a smile and happily accommodated our request to sit outside. We never felt rushed and were able to relax and enjoy our meal. The vibe was cool, the place very clean and service wonderful!! Fresh food, great service, and a wonderful atmosphere. I will definitely be back.

This might be the best Greek place I've been to. Perhaps, others have better dishes for certain…read morethings but overall Greek, this is up there. They start you off with warm pita bread which is delicious. I think you can ask for me as needed. The highlights were the dips and the pork chop with apple glaze I think. I was particularly surprised by the potato one since it usually taste like mashed potatoes but here it actually taste like a garlic dip. The roe dip is still my favorite as it usually is. The pork chop I would get again next time. Tender and a sweet glaze. The other dishes were good too but the pork chop was top tier. The carafe of white wine was delicious and I'd get again even though I try to cut down on alcohol. Only thing that I did not like was the galactoboureko which they did say comes from Victory Bakery. I'd skip desserts here. They give you some Turkish delights which aren't as bad as the ones in grocery stores in America.

They ordered the pork doner with fries and absolutely loved it, as well as the feta and tzatziki spreads. For vegetarians, the vegetarian moussaka is the best thing on the menu and this is one of the only places I've found that has a non-meat version. Unfortunately, we went during a heat wave and it was very hot in the restaurant. We were all sweating so I wish the split units were turned on for additional cooling.

I always get some type of doner platter (either chicken or pork - though the pork tends to be more consistently juicer and better!). The sweet potato fries are $1-2 extra to substitute the side but the portion is generous! We also always get the pita with 4 dips appetizer to share. Great spot if you're looking for reliable and tasty Greek food in the Bayside area! Service is also consistently friendly here as well.

You can tell theyre very clean, as I saw one of the employees wiping down the legs of the tables. This is officially my new go-to for a solo date restaurant!!

Daily specials are listed by the entrance and a lot of variety of soups, entrees and sides. Their usual menu is also filled with protein options of all kinds: beef, chicken, fish, seafood and gigante beans. I recommend the grilled octopus, any of the salads and the moussaka. I think I've tried a little bit of everything having been here so many times. The moussaka was one of my favorites. That bechamel and beef had a good balance.

There is also very delicious complementary dessert. It is a small restaurant so it's very tight. Everyone is kind of crushed together. The food is a bit on the expensive side but absolutely worth it. I can't wait to come back one day. Amazing experience with wonderful food and service!

If we wanted to get a table in the main dining room, the wait was estimated to be over 2 hours (we went around 8pm), so I highly recommend making a reservation if you plan to go. The staff were very quick with service and very friendly. We were offered toasty bread with some lemon and an olive spread while we waited for our food (which also came out super quick!). We ordered the octopus and lamb chops. The octopus was incredibly tender, the meat was very soft - I personally would've preferred a little more bite to it, but it still tasted good. The lamb chops were flavorful. The medium here is on par with medium rare at most other places, and one of our pieces was borderline rare. At the end of the meal we were also offered complementary desert, which was a pleasant surprise. We enjoyed our meal overall, but just know that it's a little on the pricey. The octopus and lamb chops came out to $80~ pre-tax and tip. Would recommend if you're a fan of seafood!

The whole vibe felt warm and made it a really nice family dinner. My grandma and mom both seemed happy and enjoyed everything, which honestly mattered most. We ordered two Greek salads (definitely could've gotten away with just one -- they're huge and very shareable). We also had the Mediterranean spreads: tzatziki, eggplant, and a spicy spread. Everything was solid and great for sharing. We also got grilled octopus as an appetizer -- super tender and really well done. For my main, I had the grilled deboned red snapper -- absolutely delicious. It came with a creamy lemon sauce on the side that you can pour over the fish, plus oregano fries and grilled vegetables. The veggies were amazing, especially the grilled onions that just melted in your mouth. We also ordered takeout: kefte kebab with fries, which was maybe smaller portion but it was good flavor. For dessert we had a baklava float (I think that was the name) with coffees to finish. Very happy with the whole meal overall. Drinks at the bar beforehand were also a highlight -- sangria and a gin, lavender, elderflower, cucumber cocktail that my grandma actually loved.
