| - I thought this place was pretty good. I love Greek food and this place serves it up. The hubs, not so much. Typical guinea that doesnt like to stray too far from his beloved Italian fare. I ordered the Saganaki, which is fried cheese and it was tangy and chewy and delicious. I believe they fire it in a liquor. I also ordered Spanikopita, the spinach pie with Feta in Phyllo. It was so fresh and delciious. This portion was huge for an appetizer. The cheese isnt. You will NOT want to share the cheese, just sayin. So, Frank ordered the ribs that came with a slaw. They had an odd flavor that can almost be confused with being off. But, we think it was the herbs, probably coriander that we're not used to. They were cooked perfectly. Tender and meaty with a nice amount of fat that made the mouth feel very unctuous. The flavor was actually very good, just not what we're used to. The slaw was ok, nothing special. We order the lemon potatoes on the side with Parmesan. Fuckin delicious. They were crispy and creamy inside with that nice tang of lemon and nuttiness of the parmesan. So good.Oh, and I almost forgot the HONEYBALLS, OR Lucamadis as theyre called. Very different from Aunt Lena's honeyballs or Struffoli, which I make TO DIE FOR, BTW. These were big, not used to that. But, they were so light and fluffy with nuts sprinkled on top and honey, which I asked for more off. Really good. Youu have to get those. Overall, I liked it a lot. I wont go back with Frank, but I will go back with my friends. It was delicous. OPA!!!!
