Amazing selection of both Italian and Greek entrees. One of the best places for pizza in the area, especially the thin crust.
We were served by Brittany, who was friendly and attentive. Our glasses were never empty, and we wanted for nothing. We had the saganaki, tyropita, pizza and chicken souvlaki. All were excellent and flavorful. The saganaki especially was on point. My wife is now a fan of rice pilaf because of their unique peppery (mild chile of some sort) take on it, as served with the souvlaki. My wife and I are huge fans of Greek food and even went to Greece on our honeymoon. The Greek items that we bought measured up well. Note that there is a "Greek Village" salad on the menu for those fans of a proper Greek salad like you would get over there (no lettuce, big blocks of feta). I got the Margarita pizza but added Italian sausage. The crust reminded me of an airy Sicilian but not thick like a Sicilian, so don't walk in expecting NY style. If you can keep an open mind about that, it's a very good pizza. I loved mine. Next time I want to do more on the Italian entrees side of the menu and get one or two of their delicious-sounding desserts. Thank you Brittany and Takis!

If you want an American style Greek salad, they have that too. I got the Margarita pizza but added Italian sausage.

The food is delicious! From the pizza to the amazing Italian dishes like Lasagna and chicken piccata, to the Greek lamb dish, and the Greek salad are sooooo yummy! Party of 6 and we got lots of different things and it was all fabulous! Greek dishes or Italian and are great. They had two for wines on Thursday night! We had a lovely meal and great service. The lasagna is perfect!
Dined in and take out. Wrap grape (dolmades) leaves obviously canned, moussaka made with ground beef, not lamb and not always available, spanakopita (spinach pie) seems premade frozen, saganaki, thrilling display, but once it cools just greasy cheese. Baklava, huge disappointment, but I make mine fresh. Service is good, but they have a high turnover. The BEST their Calzone meat lovers, I usually get extra ricotta and sauce. Huge portion. Definitely a must try. And the combo meals. Ohh and the white pizza, ricotta (get extra) and tomato, so so good. I even love the crust.
