| - I came to The Broken Plate for dinner with my work, and was really excited for Greek! We ordered the Saganaki and the sampler trio that had hummus, tzatziki and a red pepper spread to start. I thought the pita was so, so good as were the dips. I love cheese, but I wasn't a huge fan of the Saganaki. As one of my co workers put it, it tastes like pizza cheese from a cheap pizza place. Either way, that was more or less personal preference.
My issue was that I ordered the Golden Beet salad and by the description on the menu, it sounded as though it was literally a full beet salad, with figs, feta and some greens. Instead I got a green salad with a couple chunks of beets and few figs and cheese pieces. There was also TONS of onions which weren't indicated on the menu that it would be on the dish. (If you've read my other reviews, you'll know how frustrating I find that).
It wasn't just me that had issues with the food. Most people found their dishes to be very salty, however the lamb was apparently amazing. The service was good, the girl was really great and informative on the items on the menu.
Overall not too impressed...I will still you Yiannis in Edmonton for my Greek fix :)
