We tried their moussaka, calamari, dip with pita and the grilled broccolini. The calamari was my favourite as the pieces were nicely battered without being too oily after being deep friend. The ambiance is definitely a little more high end with nice lighting and a lively vibe.

Our waiter was incredibly attentive, and the service was quick. We kicked things off with some drinks. We should have arrived 30 minutes earlier to enjoy their happy hour. Their drinks are both strong and delicious. It's a fantastic opportunity to try something new, especially since you don't get to experience Greek spirits every day. The food was just as tasty. We started with the calamari and the house spreads - we had the hummus, tzatziki, and roasted eggplant dip. It was so good that we had to order more pita bread. For our mains, we shared three different dishes: short ribs, lamb meatballs, and lamb roasted shoulder. The flavors were rich and well-seasoned. That, combined with their drinks, was a perfect match. Don't come here after eating a snack beforehand; make sure you're hungry because you'll be finishing your plate and the person you're with. I would definitely return here without hesitation to try the rest of the menu.

We hadn't been to Minerva's in a long time because it's quite far from where we live, but decided to make the trek one Sunday. The place was packed, so make reservations! We ordered two mediums, which is double what is needed for two hungry adults. The pizzas were DIVINE. We each ordered one of their listed pizzas and then added extra items. I honestly can't remember what we ordered, as their online menu is a bit different from what you get at the restaurant. The crust was delicious, not too thick, but thick enough to hold the generous toppings and sauce, and a nice crispy, yet tender texture. The sauce was unapologetically bold and seasoned. The toppings plentiful. Not too cheesy, which we both appreciated. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The front area, which is a wine bar was packed with younger crowds, while the back restaurant area (I don't think it's changed since the 90's) was mostly families and their quite elderly parents. But everyone was clearly enjoying themselves wherever they sat. If you are sick of wet, limp pizza, I strongly recommend making a reservation and going!

They were super helpful and knowledgeable with their food and cocktails. The restaurant's decor is beautiful. To start, we ordered the Crab, Spinach & Artichoke dip and it was so delicious.

Anyway, loved the experience here and I hope you have a great time there as well

We went to New York, New York for Greek food last night. It used to be one of our regulars but it…read morereally went downhill so we had not gone for years. A few months ago, my husband said that he had read very good reviews for it so we decided to give it a try. It was very good. Just like it used to be, so we decided to go last night - Mother's Day. I think it was a bad night to go. The service was excellent considering how busy the restaurant was, but the food was disappointing. We shared saganaki as an appetizer and it was good. It was flamed at the table, crispy on the outside and nicely melted. Served with pita bread it was delicious. The Greek salad was nice and fresh with cucumber, tomatoes and olives. My husband had moussaka and his comment was that he has had better. I had roast lamb. It was very dry and overcooked. Our entrees were served with generous portions of rice and lovely marinated potatoes We shared a bourgatsu for dessert and it was also very good. We would probably give New York New York another try since we did have a very good experience on our previous visit but last evening was very disappointing. I'm hoping that it's just because the kitchen was overwhelmed because of Mother's Day.

To start, we decided to try something new to us: Saganaki. In all honesty it wasn't what I expected. There were so much oil and grease in the pan fried appetizer, it didn't work for me. Next time I'll try another appetizer or stick with the calamari. Husband ordered the calamari platter and I had the Lamb Slouvaki. Both were solid choices with lots of carb on the side! The restaurant was BUSY but that was to be expected on a Saturday night. It seemed like a good place for patrons of all ages (from young to experienced). Service tried to keep up and they were speedy enough. Not a bad place if you don't mind a loud ambiance.

Now for the food. Loaded Patatas Bravas: love the potato pave. Lots of toppings and delicious. Basic Benny: a different take on the Benny. It was good. I think I would prefer back bacon instead of the shaved ham though. Chilaquiles brunch bowl: crispy tortilla chips. Loaded with toppings, lots of flavors. Their drink choices were ok. I got their special strawberry matcha sour with whiskey. That was delicious. And we had a few non-alcoholic beverages. Most of their alcoholic cocktails were vodka and rum and were not enticing to the whole table. Some variety of beer and a long list of wine, but again, not really what we were looking for. Kinda wish they had the sound on for the game as well. I understand it wasn't a Canada game, but it would've been nice. Would still definitely come back.

The small restaurant had a number of customers by the time we showed up, which was very impressive for a weeknight. We shared a few plates of appetizers and my favourite was the Spanakopita (feta, herbs, spinach in phyllo pastry). Not overly cheesy rich, crispy pastry and overall felt fairly healthy. Entree for me was Roast Lamb, since I rarely make it at home. The lamb was fall off the bone delicious, and the roasted potatoes had a hint of lemon. One of my colleagues commented on how the potatoes had more of a lemon flavour the last time they were here. I'm not complaining; in my opinion it would have tasted a little weird if the potatoes had any more of a lemon flavour. They were out of Baklava for dessert (drat) so we ended up ordering Bougatsa. I had never tried it before, but I quite liked the custard, cinnamon and icing sugar combination. It was delicious and not overly sweet. I think I may have found a new favourite dessert!
