| - Elia brings back wonderful memories of the tavernas I visited in Santorini. The food is amazing and we are so fortunate to have a great local spot for elevated Greek cuisine, basically eliminating the need to visit Milos on the strip.
You begin with smoky grilled bread and Greek EVOO that is fantastic by itself or good to utilize with their many small plates.
Tarama ($6): Cured fish roe purée/dip
Grilled Octopus ($16)
Calamari ($12)
Roasted Feta ($10): Baked feta, tomato, serrano peppers
Kolokythakia ($12): Pan-fried Zucchini
Pork Souvlaki-Entree ($18)
Garidomakaronada ($25): Jumbo shrimp, spaghetti, tomato sauce
Seriously, everything is delicious. I'm just trying to make it through their menu! I recommend all the dishes I've had! The pasta was particularly outstanding and of course, the Grilled Mediterranean Octopus is a must. It's dressed with the usual EVOO, fresh red onion, and parsley, however, it's missing the beautiful capers. I'm assuming this is a preference of the chef or owners?
Their Pork Souvlaki is the BEST Pork Souvlaki I've had outside of Greece. The pork is really tender and the flavor is on point. The entree version is accompanied by grilled pita bread, Tzatziki, fresh tomato and red onion, and Greek fried potatoes. Everything is wonderful. The potatoes (Greece's version of fries) are the most true rendition of Greek fried potatoes in Vegas and they're so good!
This is already on my rotation of favorite restaurants! They also offer Lavraki (Mediterranean Seabass) at market price and I look forward to trying it as that was one of my favorite dishes to eat at Milos.
