  • Abundant Banquets: Family-style platters arrive in generous courses, loaded with grilled seafood, souvlaki, and meat feasts meant for sharing.

  • Taramasalata

    The taramasalata is elite. It is so good that the warm, fluffy bread it is served with acts less like a side and more like a shovel to get it into my mouth faster.

    the tzatziki was honestly the best — so fresh, creamy and full of flavour.
