Do not judge this place by the outside appearance.
The food is amazing! The creamy butternut squash soup was the best I’ve had, full of flavor. The seafood trio appetizers is a meal in itself for for a group of 4-6, cooked to perfection. We have the shrimp curry, full of flavor and the lightest rice ever. And the seafood trio….. mmm. Lobster tail stuffed with shrimp, bacon and lump crab was huge and full of flavor, served with some of the richest, creamiest lobster and Mac we’ve ever had
Do not skip the tiramisù for dessert. In fact have it first so you don’t fill up. 😉
Al is an amazing manager and did a fabulous job. We’ll be back.

First time here, had the crab cake appitizer, tandoori shrimp, and baklava for desert. The crab cakes were amazing, should have had as my entree!! The tandoori were good wish they had more spice then curry, but really good overall. The baklava was disappointing, should have got the carrot cake. Overall a great night, wonderful atmosphere and our waiter was stellar!!
Great date night location. It’s just so different from anywhere in the area, I love it. I used to get the flaming saganaki cheese dish as an app, but it honestly isn’t one of my fave parts of going there. I highly recommend their house (barley) soup or French onion. They serve you bread and oil for dipping as a courtesy. A lot of times you get a pallet cleanser too if you get a full meal. They have a pianist playing most weekend nights. I also enjoy their pizzas, seafood, and Greek options (hummus, etc.)
This restaurant is phenomenal and I can't wait to surprise my friends and family and bring them here.
My husband and I celebrated our anniversary dinner here and enjoyed everything we ordered. The Lamb appetizer was cooked perfectly. We had both the French onion soup and the seafood chowder. The french onion was the best french onion I have ever had! I wish I had the recipe! Our entrees were both amazing. Service was great and the atmosphere was romantic. Ordered two meals with an appetizer and a bottle of wine and spent about $200 total. Definitely worth it!
Good food and serivce. Recommendation the lobster & steak as it feeds two. A bit pricy, but worth it for those special occasions. Plenty of parking and handicap accessible.
I’m a regular customer and I love the food and I enjoy the atmosphere there but on Valentine’s Day the food wasn’t good! honestly it was a total disaster and I’m disappointed, menu was too small and way over priced, the chicken was super chewy like a Rubber, it’s kinda funny I paid $107 for only a chicken breast and chicken pasta. Anyways I won’t go back again on a special days.
Live piano, 5 star good and excellent service. The food has bold and cibrant flavors. You can definitely taste the quailty and time put into each meal.
Beautiful place and the server was wonderful. I have been dying for a good prime rib and since I had never been here before I decided to give it a try. I ordered rare prime rib and it came out medium well with no flavor. My daughter ordered the kids Mac and cheese and she said it was the best she has ever had and she loved the extra chocolaty milk.
My husband and I visited here for the first time for Valentines Day. It was an amazing surprise for us. The atmosphere was so beautiful and inviting and the staff were extremely friendly. The food was absolutely delicious. We cant wait to go back!
If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would. Very elegant. Very nice staff and the food was amazing. This is a fine dinning establishment but the prices were very affordable. Such a beautiful atmosphere. My new favorite place to eat! Had the best steak I've ever had there. (I had steak and lobster and the ms had a almond encrusted halibut.)
