| - BURIED TREASURE?
This weekend I went strip mall crawling in search of new eateries with interesting tap beer selections. Found a Greek place buried in the worst location I have seen in a long time. The landlord should pay the business to occupy this space not the other way around. Anyway, I walked in and was surprised to see this little place had four beers on tap with three I hadn't tried yet. The beers were good.
The service was good. The owner stopped by our table several times to chat us up, which was fun.
I liked the atmosphere. Greek music was playing, the décor was warm, and the owner was working the crowd. Had a really nice mom and pop hole in wall feel. Not too busy, not too slow, just right. This is a new business that hasn't been open long. I hope I am not jinxing it with this review.
The food was really good!!! The owner delivered our entrees and the aromas alone were worth the price of admission. That food was hot and smelled good!!! We tried the Lamb burger and some kind of Greek lasagna. Both were hot, fresh, and spicy. Tried three desserts the crepe, some kind of stuffed puff pastry and got the baklava to go. All good, good, and good! The owner brought over a shot of chilled ouzo to finish off the meal. This place is buried treasure!
Bottom line: I had a blast at this little place and can not wait to go back and try some different menu items or just sit on the patio and sample the draft beers on a nice day. If you go; look for the bike shop on the NW corner of Alma School and Germann. Trust me, the bike shop is much easier to find. The restaurant is next to the bike shop. Cheers.
