The service was so fast. We got right in, no wait, ordered right away, and our food came out unbelievably fast. We all had breakfast items, but since it near lunch time, lots of other tables around us were having lunch items. They also serve alcohol which is rather unique for a classic diner. We enjoyed our meals. Solid breakfast classics. I had try to crepes, and despite them being a bit on the thick side, they were very tasty, and the cinnamon flavor was a nice surprise. We will be back!

It also had a very appealing appearance with its covered open air and outdoor seating. We did not have reservations on a Friday night but they found a way to accommodate us. First they serve you a basket of warm bread with oil and they recommended you try the olives with it. My husband was the only one who likes olives and he ate them all! I had the special of the day which was a black bass with a mango salsa served atop a cheesy polenta and asparagus. This meal is defintely on my top meals of all time. Everything was cooked to perfection and was bursting with flavor and richness. My husband ordered the Pasta Nikanos. It was loaded with a variety of seafood such as salmon, shrimp, and mussels in a red sauce served over farfalle pasta. He devoured it and was more than satisfied with the flavors and portion size. My daughter ordered the Valerie shrimp which was large shrimp in a red sauce with melted muenster cheese served atop a bed of Greek seasoned rice. She enjoyed it very much. We also had cocktails and they did not disappoint. I had a Mule that had black fig and my husband had the Aphrodite that had various flavors that was semi-sweet but good. We will definitely return to try some of their other offerings. We missed out on their dessert of the day which was a bread pudding because we were so full.

We were able to get a table without a reservation on a Saturday night and enjoyed sitting at our outdoor table and chatting, but were unimpressed with the service and value of food and drinks. I was with three friends and we were not overly hungry so we decided to order one order of chicken souvlaki (skewers) and one order of steak skewers ($28 and $29). We were shocked when the order came out and each order came with one single skewer with three pieces of meat (three steak tips, three pieces of chicken) and one skewer with 6 vegetable pieces around an inch in size. Very surprised with the amount of food for the price and we were not incredibly impressed with the taste of the food either. It seemed that those around us were ordering pasta dishes and fish dishes, and maybe those are better options to try, but we expected a skewer plate with rice to be a classic and safe bet.

We had a beautiful and comfortable table at the back of the restaurant with a curved cushioned bench. For shared apps, we ordered a collection of dips, spanakopita, and stuffed grape leaves. All were great, although the stuffed grape leaves were some of the best I've ever had. For my main, I ordered Shakshuka, which was very good, although I was distracted by a side waffle I was sharing with someone else. The waffle was AWESOME!!!! Coffee came in my own personal French press, and there were three interesting mocktails on the menu as well. Overall, highly recommend Magissa!

They have many other amazing items on their menu, but I am a creature of habit, and once I find my favorites, I tend to stick to them. p.s. they will be on vacation starting 5/22/2022, reopening some time in August 2022.

Ok here is a warning about my review - I am 100% Greek and I grew up in my family's Greek…read morerestaurant. So I know a thing or two about Greek food. I have strong opinions and I know what I'm used to eating when it comes to the "food of the Gods" as I call Greek cuisine. For that reason, I have waited a long time to eat at the Greeks of Peaks. I just did not want to be disappointed. Well, to be honest, I was NOT disappointed!!! The Greeks of Peaks serves up some really good Greek food with the requisite amount of lemon, oregano and familiar Greek deliciousness!!! Bravo to the other Greeks of Peaks!!! I will be back and I give it a strong recommendation indeed without any native Greek reservation! The customer service was friendly and good as well. Those women keep a smile on their faces while turning out some very good food! And all in a truck too! It is mind boggling to me that only 3 people can cook up such good food, serve it up in a friendly and fast way and create a happy dining experience, all while working in a small truck in an outside dining room. Okay okay since I am reviewing this establishment AND since I am Greek, I will have some thoughts on some things. The serving containers are too flimsy. They should be sturdier and, I think, larger. For the prices, I did want more food. But the cardboard containers soaked up too much of the dressing and the delicious oils - I was worried they wouldn't last through my meal. Also I did not like the forks at all. Please - parakalo - give me better utensils for my next meal with you! I look forward to many more great Greek meals with the Greeks of Peaks!!! And I encourage you to visit this very special place too!
