This is a small restaurant hidden in the middle of "somewhere." Suggest use Bolt to take you there and still have to walk a bit before you arrive. You need to make a reservation to avoid waiting.
We ordered Razorclams, and not many restaurants offer this. It was quite tasty, and the sauce was good. The Mushroom was covered with fried garlic and was most delicious. The main was Octopus, and it was soft and tender and doesn't require hard chewing.
Overall, this is one of a decent restaurant.
Second time to Greek food and the first one in Greek Town.

We arrived 75 minutes before closing on Sunday night, and when ordered, quite a number of items were not available. We then ordered the Saganaki, which is hot and tasty when served. Grilled octopus was not the same as the Asian ways of cooking, but it was still good. Pork and Chicken Souvlaki dinner, both served with rice and potatoes, were quite filling up. Moussaka, just a little disappointing as it might be the last one left for the day! We also tried the dessert Baklava, which might be too sweet for us.

Overall, I reckon the previous one in Greek Town was better, and we should have come earlier to have ordered our right choice.
That was what the pub should be, with the crowd, noise and laughters especially on a game day. All are coming back from the pandemic.
The food was barely good when choosing the right choice in the menu. Burgers and fries were always safe. Fish and chips were too dry and just so so. Beers are always more important. Apart from the food, the atmosphere was fantastic.
We read some good reviews and therefore gave it a try. The place is pity old and looks rotten. Food quality is just so so but edible in this price range. Egg Benedict doesn't look good in presentation and 3 eggs breakfast looks so thin. The only plus sign was the good service provided. If you are looking for quality food, try other alternatives.
Known to be good at Chiu Chow cuisine. Cold crab was very good but also expensive. The rest were just so so and a bit disappointed.
