    I heard a lot of good things about Vasilis from friends so I decided to give it a try. Dani and Parker took excellent care of me at the bar on my visit. They recommended the vasilis chips which were fantastic. The menu had so many good options to choose from but I ended up getting the Cesar salad with chicken. It’s not your traditional Cesar salad but I really enjoyed it. I will definitely be back soon to try more of the menu.
