   If you’re looking for a fun evening for date night to celebrating birthdays with amazing food, this is your stop! Every time we visit it feels like a big family gathering. You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, but highly recommend the lamb chops, gyro plate, cabbage rolls, and crab cakes.

   The beef souvlaki and grilled vegetables were outstanding. Great job by Chef and the back of the house. Our server, Tim, was fantastic--friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. The Olive Oil is truly a hidden gem in The Woodlands. Highly recommended.

   Our family of 11 had an incredible time. Entertainment was "to die for" and believe it or not, the food was even better! Great Shrimp skewers char-grilled with what tasted like a bed of fried rice and garlic spinach (or one of several other sides. The same dish but lamb, pork, beef or chicken was also served at our table. My grand daughter loved the grilled Salmon dinner. Then the fun began with an authentic Belly Dancer & Greek party, complete with family dancing around the restaurant wit the audience participating. The kids especially loved the "Breaking of the Plates" celebration as the evening came to a draw (Friday & Saturday nights). Reserve your tables ahead of time. Best Part Of The Night: Each dish was about $20 so the most reasonable dining experience in The Woodlands. This Greek restaurant is THE BEST Value, Entertainment, Gourmet dining experience possible.

   We strutted in on a Friday night, and boy, were we in for a treat! Belly dancers and other groovy moves had us entertained while we munched away. The food was delish, though we found it a bit lacking in salt. But hey, better to add a pinch than be swimming in a salt ocean, right? The desserts? A-ma-zing! And their Greek coffee was unique but tasty. All in all, a fab experience. Can't wait for round two!

   We were seated immediately upon arrival. The restaurant was busy but we had very good service. The food was excellent and served in a timely manner. We enjoyed our meal and will return.
