    Such a lovely room to enjoy a fabulous 3 course Easter Sunday brunch with a brunch cocktail. Lentil soup and beet dip are delicious. Spanakopita was enhanced by the tomato jam. Rice pudding and baklava are the BEST I have ever tasted! Service and cost were delightful. Every dish I have ever had at this restaurant are top notch h for preparation and taste.
