We frequent the Parthenon often and I am sorry I haven't reviewed it sooner. Having recently travelled to Greece, I now feel ready to draw a few comparisons. In a nutshell, it exceeds the taste and quality of the food we experienced in Greece.
Our "go to" meal at the Parthenon is the platter for two. It begins with a super fresh Greek salad where tomatoes are the feature. Their dressing is perfect and delicious. We would appreciate just a few more Kalamatas as they are doled out sparingly.
Next come the calamari topped with purple onions and lemon wedges and served with an excellent tatziki. The serving is generous and so tasty.
The main event follows with more food on the platter than the two of us can ever finish. There are doubles of each item including lamb chops, moussaka, kebobs, Greek potatoes, dolmadas, seasoned rice and warm pitas. My mouth waters as I write this because the food is so full of flavour.
Service here can be a bit cool. Sometimes it is genuinely friendly and at other times it is perfunctory and rapid much like we experienced in Greece.
We will, however, return for reliably fine Greek food.
