| - In every possible way, Ilios Noche was fantastic - I don't use this word often, but it's the first word that comes to mind when I think back to my experience here.
Everything that makes up what a restaurant is - the food, service, ambiance - was top-notch.
FOOD: I started with the Country Greek salad and my husband had the Mesclun salad. I didn't think it was possible to have salad THIS good. The Mesclun salad, especially, was a beautiful explosion of harmonious flavors. Yes, from a salad! For my entree, I had the Crazy Lasagna. Delicious, and never had anything like it before.
SERVICE: The sommelier was our server. I unfortunately do not recall his name, but he was wonderful. Very attentive. When we asked for suggestions on wines to pair with our dessert, he brought out 3 glasses, thoroughly described each of them, and left them for us to enjoy. While having dessert, the general manager came by to say hello and thanks for dining with us.
As a former NYC resident, I've tried a good amount of noteworthy restaurants. Ilios Noche surpassed many of the ones in NYC.
This is the restaurant that has changed the way I now give 5-star ratings.
Can't wait to return to try other items on the menu!
