   Our server barely knew anything. Asked questions about the bar…answer was “I don’t know.” Asked questions about what things were on the menu answer was “I don’t know.” Asked for specific drinks they were all messed up. Food was cold, or dry. French fries were rock hard. Wasn’t asked how food was or we would have had the chance to maybe have them try to rectify. Maybe it was an off night.

   This was not a good food experience on Mother’s Day!!!! Long wait for food and when it finally arrived the food was cold - kids food wasn’t good either. I would give this restaurant an overall 1

   Our waiter totally ignored us. After ordering our meal we waited a very long time and finally chased him down and asked for bread, which they normally serve. He brought some cold pita bread-not great. Then they can and said they had run out of rice! The person whose dinner included rice was not happy. Also waiter said the squash included with meal was butternut. But it was zucchini. They had butternut which they brought upon our complaint. Won’t rush back.

   The service was extremely slow, some our meals were not very hot and the meals came out before we even got our appetizer. Not a good experience last night but have enjoyed it many times before this.

   The food here was excellent. The restaurant is very small indoors so we were seated in a tent. No atmosphere at all and certainly no view. Please be aware they put a 3% hospitality charge on the bill with no warning.

   Service was great! Steak tips were saturated in some kind of tangy sauce and were undercooked. Sautéed mushrooms were 1 of my sides and they weren't fresh mushrooms... more like canned mushrooms with loads of garlic on them. I wish their sides were more descriptive. I wouldn't have ordered them knowing they were in a garlic sauce with chopped garlic in it. The place is quaint and near the water. Overall ok.

   I had a Greek chicken wrap which could have used more chicken. I was told I could substitute sweet potato fries for French fries, but wasn’t told I’d be charged extra. There is an added hospitality fee. So while the food and atmosphere are ok, I’ve always felt it was somewhat overpriced for what you get.

   Anna's is our new favorite place to eat. The calamari is great as are the lollipop lamb chops. We had four different meals. The fish and chips included a one pound piece of fish, lightly breaded and very tasty. The scallop santorini was delicious. The red peppers gemiste were filling and well cooked--the lemon potatoes need not have been included, but all was good. The only dish that was a bit of a disappointment was the beef dish special. But the service is awesome and very helpful. We love Anna's.

    We enjoyed our appetizer hummus platter very much. Our entrees were disappointing. I was looking forward to the stuffed peppers but found the filling to be like mush and the potatoes were overcooked. Service was slow. We had heard good things but our overall experience was very disappointing.
