A couple of ladies from work took us here for lunch and this restaurant has changed my perspective on Greek Food (after many horrible experiences).
The service was quick, tentative and friendly. The decor is unique and you feel like you are in Europe.
Since we were here for lunch and I've had many unpleasant experiences in the past- I decided to play it safe and went for the chicken souvlaki lunch entree with french fries and veggies. To start we had a some platters of fried calamari and pita bread with tzatziki dip.
I personally prefer lightly golden/breaded calamari but this was still very delicious and cooked to perfection. The warm pita and tzatziki dip were AMAZING. I could personally have a bucket of it myself without hesitation.
My lunch entree was a big portion but it didn't look overwhelming on the plate. The chicken was grilled perfectly but the chunks were large- would prefer perhaps smaller but more pieces. The fries were also thick cut and the veggies were steamed perfectly.
I truly enjoyed my experience at Astoria and would love to go back and try their grilled calamari and some other dishes!
I highly recommend if you are into Greek food or looking to try it, give this place a shot :)
