    We will remember this Easter dinner for many years. I had the lamb on a spit, entire lamb on a spit, grilled for 4 hours in grills on 44th St. Tasted great and wonderful presentation. We ate at a table on the sidewalk, perfect spring day for it. As always the service at Kellari is outstanding. The waiter knows wine. Is very helpul and gracious. We were able to get the lamb since today is both Eastern (Orthodox) and Western Easter. This doesn't happen often, but the lamb is always availableon Greek (Orthodox) Easter.

    Absolutely delicious food and lovely ambiance! Also very friendly to folks with food allergies. I had a fabulous, fully gluten and dairy free meal with no worries that mistakes might be made. I’ll definitely be eating there again.

    Very professional service from the entire staff; everyone was pleasant as well, seemed to enjoy their work. The food was exceptional as well, cooked exactly as I ordered. If I wasn't trying to catch an 8:00 show I would have stayed longer over a few glasses of wine.
