| - For the price, I would have liked a little more atmosphere. As it is, it is simply an American designed Restaurant with a Greek name that serves adequate Greek food. Plenty of food at a reasonable price. I went there expecting a taste of Greece, with Greek paintings and other furnishings but disappointed to see it was a very modern American setting. At BUCCA DE PEPPA, (not the best Italian Restaurant I have ever eaten at) they at least try to get the atmosphere right. Here, it was they took a typical American eatery and said "If we call it Greek, and serve mediocre Greek food, they will come." Their seems to be very little in the way of Greek settings, other than banal, average taped Greek music. Basically, it is what an American might expect a true Greek Restaurant to sound like.
Having grown up with an Eastern Catholic/Orthodox background, I have been to Greek churches that have served Authentic Greek food and spirits, and MY BIG FAT GREEK RESTAURANT was a BIG FAT DISSAPPOINTMENT. Although the food was good, it was still like eating at an American place trying to do the Greek stuff. It just does work well. Still, the food was good, and they serve big portions, but for the price, it shuld have been better.
