Coming here is always a blast. The food tastes home-cooked (not always consistent) and the waiters will dance to the live Greek music.

A perfect Lunch Spot If Time Is On Your Side

When my office was in Studio City and was in the mood to eat lunch at a leisure pace, this was one of my favorite lunch spots.

Skip the sourdough basket and order their grilled pita read, it is the BOMB!! I hear they fly it in from Chicago, wish I could remember where.

However, sometimes the dishes can be inconsistent for example their lemon soup (Avgolemono Soup) was so salty and too lemony one day but another day, it was just perfect.

Their dolmades is a hit with me also and I always order the combination sampler consisting of dolmades, moussaka, spanakopita, pastitsio all served with roasted potatoes, rice and vegetables, A really great deal if you ask me – less than $13.00

Dishes I tried:

Dolmades - Stuffed Grape Leaves

This one is just okay with me as sometimes it’s baked too long thus it can be very dry. Pasta layered with ground beef, spinach, bechamel sauce.

Spinach Spanakopita

I wish I could like this dish, to me is a bit bland, maybe if they seasoned the cheese, it may taste better?

All I can say is wow. You must order this, you will not be disappointed.

Avgolemono Soup - the Lemon Soup

It can be quite good, especially on a cold and rainy day. However, one instance, it was really salty and too lemony that my mouth was dry all day. They did take it back and confirmed my mild grievance and offered me another complimentary basket of Grilled Pita Bread and taking this dish off the bill. I thought that was very kind of them.
