| - A well run local restaurant is a little urban gym and this place, located in a well kept shopping center along a busy section of Thomas Road, is one of those places. Friends of mine from work were raving about it so the annual Friday eating out group decided to head over and give it the once over and experience one of the more ancient of culinary styles, Greek food.
The place is tucked into a shady corner of what I believe is called the 10 Palms shopping center and is small enough to have a communal feel to the place. The decore is nothing special, but clean and kept up and the food is fresh. I had a salad with dolmas (rice wrapped in grape leaves) along with the addition of some gyros meat. Two of my other fellow diners had the salad but with the chicken which looked wonderful, marinated and then cooked without being dried out, they said it was wonderful.
We also had an appetizer of some warm dolmas with pita bread (nothing special about the pita bread, might be nice to grill it a bit first to warm it up) and then some Greek fries, which came with a Bechamel sauce (white sauce) with some crumbled feta cheese. I'm not a huge fan of fries but the ones here were light and crispy (crinkle fries).
Overall, good solid food. I'll have to come back and try the lamb dishes before I give higher than four stars but as I said, classic little neighborhood restaurant. The nice thing, you get good food and it won't break the bank and leave your dining out budget depleted till your next paycheck so worth a try.
