    We loved everything about Milo’s midtown! It had been over 10 years since we’ve been here & choose this for our friend who has never been in NYC. We arrived early & sat at the bar with great cocktails taking in the holiday cheer & bustle of the staff as they take from the fresh stock of Mediterranean fish chosen by their customers. We had the tomato salad & calamari to start. Not a huge fan of calamari but this was perfect. Lavraki, our main meal, was intensely flavorful with some grilled mixed vegetables. We topped off the meal with decadent desserts & shared some baclava & galaktoboureko.

    Had dinner with friends at Naxos today. Food was delicious! We all enjoyed our dinner very much. The whole Black Sea Bass dish was one of the best we’ve tasted. The Grilled Shrimp Kyklades (ladolemono, baked eggplant, tomato and feta) was so, so good! Seaside Halibut (gigantes, avocado, and kapia pepper salad, lemon-dill vinaigrette) was excellent; as was the scallops dish. Will definitely return. On our next visit, we’ll ask to be seated farther away from the bar area, which has a fantastic vibe, but for this particular dinner, we would have liked a quieter section of the restaurant as we had some catching up to do and it was a bit loud to have a conversation. Restaurant has a Beautiful ambience. The owner is very gracious. She came up to us to ask if we had enjoyed our dinner, and even took some pictures of us by the Naxos sign. Looking forward to our next dinner here!
