    Fabulous food. Sat at the bar and the bartender not only had stellar food recommendations but also wine suggestions. I enjoy California Chardonnay and am not familiar with Greek wines and he presented lovely options. The dips were wonderful with standout homemade pita. Delectable salad with heirloom tomatoes, feta, cucumber and onions. Patatas were great. Enjoyed the lamb chops with tzatziki but the standout was the tea brined chicken. GO!!!
