Winterlicious 2017 Lunch ($23)
We were a large party (8 people) for the Winterlicious lunch special. We were promptly seated upon arrival in the very back of the restaurant and given abundant amount of bread (they will refill the bread when you finish it). We did have a hard time to get our bills at the very end of the meal (we had to wait for 20 minutes and call the server twice) but other than that, service was great.
I had the octopus salad, the youvetsi chicken and the greek yogurt. The octopus salad was quite good, chopped up octopus on a bed of arugula with some feta and olives. The chicken breast was nice and juicy with a tiny bit of youvetsi sauce on top of it. I would have liked a bit more sauce. The marinate on the chicken was also a bit on the salty side and there were two whole pepper corn in my chicken, making those two bites quite unpleasant. The yogurt was nice and refreshing, a great tartness and creaminess.
The whole experience felt as a whole bit like a generic "higher end" chain restaurant (e.g. joey) with standard dishes but nothing exciting or new.
