When I first saw this restaurant, I thought of Athens Diner...the one that used to be in Elizabeth and wondered why they would come out here nearly to suburbia. But then I saw the menu options and was quite relieved that this is a completely different place and decided to give it a shot.
This is a tiny restaurant with about 10 booths and 3 tables in the middle. The menu consists of standard greek fare with Souvlaki, Pita sandwiches and salads for which the dressing is on each table.
I asked my server for a recommendation and he asked how hungry I was. Since I didn't want to go back to work in a food coma, he suggested a pita sandwich. Some of the people around me had the dinner plates and there is no way I could handle that even at dinner. The pita sandwich was big enough that I just managed to finish it and the side item.
Side items consist of rice, fries, and roasted potatoes and 2 options that cost a little extra. I opted for the roasted potatoes which were plenty and flavorful. The chicken pita I ordered was tasty also, with seasoned chicken, lettuce, tomatoes and an awesome tzatziki sauce gently covering everything within the pita.
Service was good. One of the cooks came out and greeted some of the customers during my visit so that's a plus for them. It shows that they really appreciate their customers.
Prices are very reasonable. $4.99 and up for pita sandwiches. I added a glass of tea and still got out of there for under $7 (without tip).
This is a place I am going to have to add to my list of regular lunch places.
