| - Yesterday night was our first visit at this eatery. A small storefront tucked away in a shopping plaza, this restaurant is a gastronomic delight! Luckily I had made reservations for a Saturday night as the place was packed!
Our dinner started with complimentary pita chips and a red pepper dip,which were polished off in no time!
Our group of four had the Arni Youvetsi, Yemistes Pipieres, Moussaka and the Grilled Vegetable Souvlaki. The lamb shank was marinated to perfection and was tender and juicy. The moussaka was heavenly, creamy and flavored just right. The dish looked small, but my friend could not finish it and was happy to box it home! I had the orzo stuffed red peppers, a vegetarian dish, which came with perfectly done fingerling potatoes and a green salad that could have benefitted from some additional ingredients. The red peppers though were finger-licking good! The grilled vegetarian pita sandwich was tasty and just right for a smaller appetite. The french fries that came with it were a little too brown, but overall a truly wonderful dining experience and a great addition to the Westside eateries.
Do not leave without trying the Ekmek dessert, a truly inspired creation of pistachios, custard and cream. It is a sizable portion and one dessert was sufficient for our party of four.
We all loved this restaurant and will definitely be back soon! I gave this a four star review as the seating is a little tight and we were cold at our table by the door,but the food is 5 stars! Thank you Takis!
