Wow! I did not know the Portuguese loved garlic so much. From the moment when you walk in you know…read moreyou are in for a garlic delight. I tried the garlic soup as I've never seen this on a menu anywhere. And it did not disappoint. Very smooth and mellow garlic and egg in a milk based broth. My entree was a delightful combination of veal and seafood all swimming around a bowl of tasty sauce. Served with a side of yellow rice. The portion size was large enough that I had to take some home. But trust me it probably won't last past midnight. I got the feeling the waiters have been serving up these tasty dishes for a long time. Very professional and very polite.

Hubby and I hosted a party of 19 family members here this afternoon, and it turned out to be such a…read morewonderful and memorable experience. We have been coming here regularly for quite some time and really enjoying our favorite Greek dishes, so I thought, why not bring the whole family together and let everyone enjoy it with us? We also completely trust George L., whom we have known since he previously worked at another restaurant several years ago and since Symi opened, which made Symi the perfect choice for our gathering. From the moment we arrived, the entire staff was welcoming, and professional. George was phenomenal, as he has always been--warm, very easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and consistently attentive. From the very beginning of our planning several months ago, George was incredibly helpful. He provided thoughtful recommendations and detailed information that made selecting our menu easy. He also helped us choose a drink package and having the menus printed for our guests, which was such a nice personal touch. We selected four appetizers to be served family-style, followed by individually chosen entrées, and finished with desserts served family-style. We also added a few items à la carte, including grilled octopus and lava cakes for dessert. Everything was beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious. The entire group agreed that the food was fresh, flavorful, and exceptionally well prepared. The portions were generous as well. Honestly, I was already quite full after the appetizers! The drinks were equally enjoyable, and everyone agreed that they were delicious and paired wonderfully with the meal. We even had some leftover food and desserts to take home, which was the perfect finishing touch. All in all, it was a truly successful family gathering, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. Symi never disappoints! A huge thank-you to George and the entire team for helping make our family gathering feel extra special.

Guys, you need to come here. Like, immediately…read more I was fortunate enough to win an Instagram contest for a dinner for 2 here a few months ago and decided to make the trip to celebrate the end of summer with my husband since we both go back to work this month. So I reached out and connect with Marco, one of the owners, and he was so kind while booking our reservation and I got the pleasure of meeting him in person when we arrived. The 3 course menu had a lot of options, and I recommend coming here for it. The quality, variety, freshness, and portions were very impressive. They brought perfectly grilled bread with spiced olive oil and a big portion of olive paste to start. We split the spanikopita and beets with skordalia for our first course. I loved both but the beets were so great and the skordalia was even better. If you like garlic, that's the dish to get. For dinner my husband had the lavraki which was so perfectly cooked, fresh, and delicious. He also loved the lemon potatoes that accompanied it. I had the seafood linguine with the squid ink pasta and I have no words. It was perfection. The pasta and each piece of seafood was cooked perfectly and the sauce was light and fresh. I loved every bite. For dessert my husband had the Greek yogurt with honey and sour cherries and he loved it. I opted for the galaktoboureko but took it to go as I was stuffed. It had a very nice texture and strong orange flavor! The service was impeccable. Everyone came over to check on us, and our waiter was great. I also loved how beautiful and light the dining room was. Thank you Symi, for a memorable evening. I cannot wait to return!

First off, it's such a beautiful restaurant with outstanding service. I tried a few different cocktails, and unfortunately, they were all a miss for me. I ordered three different ones and just didn't care for any of them. Honestly, that's probably the only negative thing I have to say about this place. We started with the crab cakes, which were so good and actually full of crab. For our entrées, we had the halibut and branzino, and both were delicious. I enjoyed my meal so much that I kept thinking about it afterward and ended up coming back just a week later for lunch with my husband! They have an amazing prix fixe lunch special, and I noticed they offer a dinner special as well. This time, I tried the Greek salad, which was so fresh and crisp. The octopus was delicious and perfectly tender. My husband had the chicken souvlaki and really enjoyed it, while I went with the branzino again. It was just as good as I remembered and paired perfectly with the lemon potatoes. The lunch special also included dessert. I can't remember exactly what kind of cake it was, but it came with a scoop of ice cream on the side and was AMAZING! I ordered a cappuccino to go with it, which came out piping hot, just the way I like it, and paired perfectly with the dessert. Overall, I really love this place the food, atmosphere, and service have all been wonderful. The cocktails just aren't for me, but everything else has been excellent. I'll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend!

This restaurant has been one of our favorite lunch spots ever since it first opened, and over the…read moreyears we've also enjoyed dinner here from time to time. Today I happened to be in the area and stopped in for their prix-fixe lunch in the early afternoon, dining by myself. It was, once again, a very pleasant experience. They begin the meal with complimentary warm pita bread served with two spreads, a simple but welcoming start. I ordered the grilled octopus and the branzino, and finished with Greek yogurt for dessert. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and nicely executed. What truly sets this restaurant apart, beyond the beautiful interior and relaxed ambiance, is the warmth of the staff. As soon as I walked in, Stephanie greeted me with a genuine smile and a warm welcome. She has a natural way of making guests feel comfortable right away. My server, Christian, was attentive, friendly, and professional, checking in regularly throughout the meal. In fact, the entire team is consistently courteous and attentive, which always makes dining here especially enjoyable. It was a lovely lunch, and I look forward to returning again whenever I'm in the area.

To our surprise, Carlos was still working there and even remembered us. It was so great to see him again. They still have a really good happy hour deal. There have been a few changes over the years, but many of the items we always loved are still on the menu, along with some new ones. Of course, we had to order some of our old favorites the bacon-wrapped dates, garlic shrimp, chorizo, and skewers and everything was just as delicious as I remembered. The red sangria has always been my go-to here, especially with all the fruit in it, and it was just as good as it used to be. We're definitely looking forward to coming back again and hopefully becoming regulars once more. Great staff, great food, and great prices! You really can't beat that!
