Best spot in the area, no doubt. Attentive service and wonderful food. Divey ambiance with an upscale attention to detail. Order the spanakopita and super well priced bottle
of natural bubbly wine. Still one of the best kept secrets in Somerville. Definitely continue to be regulars here!

Don’t sleep on their brunch! Small menu but everything was exceptional, including the espresso martini. Great outdoor patio as well.
French fries in an omelette?! Yes, please. This breakfast was the bomb, and the cocktails were equally as amazing. The menu doesn't label their GF options, but they do have a designated gluten free fryer and quite a few safe options for brunch. The lemon chicken wings were also SO GOOD. Really enjoyed the vibe here, hope to be back soon!
We had the gyro and Athena (lamb) burger. Both were delicious. Burger came with a good portion of fries, which were fresh and hot, but Very salty. My BF had a glass of Greek red wine which was also good, but $14 was pricey for a small pour.
Their online menu seems to not be up to date - I’d planned to have the lamb lollipops listed there, but they weren’t on the actual menu. Friendly, attentive service.

EDIT, two weeks later:
We stopped in around 10pm on a Friday for a drink. We were served and then when we asked for a second drink, the bartender had some issue and told us we were “humping each other” and “had too much PDA for my liking”. Meanwhile, my BF is too awkward for legit PDA and holding hands is a big thing for him…
The bartender disrespected us to the point we had to ask for the manager. The manager was very understanding and we appreciated her listening to us, overall.
We were local regulars, but will likely avoid this place unless they can improve the way the bartenders treat the patrons.

My boyfriend and I stopped in on St. Patty’s day for the first time and was pleasantly surprised by the cozy, welcoming atmosphere. The photos don’t do it justice!
We sat at the bar immediately and stayed for the trio dip appetizer and drinks. The dips were amazing, they bartenders were friendly and the drinks were flowinggg.
We’re looking forward to stopping into this place more for our next Greek meal or bar hangout!

The food is really delicious. I recommend the fried Brussel sprouts and the spanakopita. Omg the spanakopita. The drinks were very good. I've been here for lunch on weekends twice, there was always a table available, however both times the waiters were constantly rushing us, overpresent, interrupting and handing the check so fast that i felt kicked out. Let people enjoy a meal and talk, please.
I have been coming here since they first opened. Great atmosphere, good food, and during the summer months the best patio around.
First time here after eyeing the place for years! LOVED the outdoor patio area. The vibes were great out there. Think the cocktails were a little small for the price and I think I probably should have gone with another option besides the hamburger, but no regrets! Would come back.
