| - Went to Taki's tonight with two friends. I have been in the past but it has been a year or so.
We got there early, around 5:30 so was not crowded. The special was the Mezza platter with a bottle of wine for $40. Two of us decided to split this and the third person ordered an orzo salad with shrimp and artichokes.
The Mezza platter was great and definitely enough for two people if not real hungry. I love, love, love the spicy feta dip and that was included on the platter along with dolmade, pork skewers, chicken skewers, olives and spanakopita. Everything was great, the spanakopita was good but was on the sweet side which was a little off putting.
My friend's salad was perfect, just the right amount of shrimp, artichokes and orzo. She did ask for feta as this was not on the salad and was a great addition so not sure why this isn't included as it made the salad.
Our server was attentive, atmosphere was warm and it was a very pleasant evening.
The food is definitely better than average and such a warm, inviting ambience. It is refreshing to have a place to go that you can have a nice conversation without loud music and noise in the background. Definitely worth seeking out if you are a fan of Greek food.
