| - I was introduced to Villa a few years ago and it is a regular spot when we want to pick up a quick, tasty meal.
It is not the best souvlaki I have ever eaten but considering my all time favorite is an hour and a half a way, this will satisfy my craving.
It is a cute, clean, little restaurant where you can eat in, but it is best for pick up.
I've tried a variety of dishes here but i generally stick to my tried and trues.
Things I like:
Souvlaki plate: you can order one or two souvlaki sticks, I prefer the chicken to the pork. It is usually tender and marinated well but it could use more flavor in my opinion. The Greek salad is always fresh, big chunk of feta, a few olives, tomatoes and cucumbers but once again, lacking zest, the dressing is pretty bland. The fries are definitely amazing, generous portion, dollar size coins that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside with the perfect amount if salt. It doesn't come with tzatziki but it is delicious as well! It also comes with some garlic bread which is pretty basic but nice. If you order this at lunchtime it comes with a free soft drink so you are getting quite a filling portion for about 12$.
I've also enjoyed the spanikopita, the grape leaves and the baklava.
All in all, a tasty spot for a quick meal. Considering it is very close to home, it is a place I go to on a regular basis.
