We sat outside which is always nice. It is not a very busy street so it was decently quite. The meal started with great warm garlic toast, very tasty, perfect start, much better than regular bead and butter/oil. They have pitchers of sangria which of course are not Greek, but who cares! My dinner partner and I love sangria and we were happy to order it. It was very strong, fruity, sweet, and a great price for $18.
For appetizers we had the Saganaki. Very good, although not quite as good as the flambe version at Zenon Taverna. Still delicious, not very greasy, but as expected quite salty fried cheese. Very good start, although not particularly memorable.
For our entrées I had the Stripped Bass, which was excellent. I ordered it Broiled (cooked in butter and garlic) instead of the grilled version that I'm usually offered (which has oil and lemon). Perfectly cooked, moist fish, very fresh, topped with garlic, spices, and other accoutrements. The lemon potatoes on the side were standard but excellent. The table also ordered the fillet of Sole, which is not a fish i'm partial to, but my guest enjoyed it very much. It was a huge portion, perfectly cooked, moist and delicious. It was served with decent rice with a few veggies in it. Simple, clean, well cooked, healthy and delicious food.
We ended our meal with a great Red Velvet cheesecake which was like Red Velvet on the bottom and Cheese cake, which was much nicer than a mix of the two. Great dessert! We were also given a complementary Greek desert as well, which is tradition. Excellent food, well cooked, great friendly service, outdoor setting, not overly crowded, and a very good value, highly recommended.
