   OMG!!! New favorite Mediterranean in the city. This meal was fantastic! Service was from Zamire. was warm, attentive and a pure joy. Ambiance is clean and warm decor and great for a pleasant meal. Wait.. not pleasant.. exceptional! I'm so happy with the dishes we tried... Sea Bass (whole fish) -A Salmon (butter butter, cream...OMG) - A++ Pita bread (Freshly baked wonderful) A Hummus (OMG... must be the best olive oil) A+ Cucumber yogurt dip A+ Cerviche... future pass, no flavor. , but no one is perfect. This restaurant comes very close to perfection. Thank you for a wonderful meal. Warm regards Sharine D

   Excellent meal, serene atmosphere. Best Greek salad with souvlaki chicken I have ever eaten. Amazingly great lettuce, cucumbers, olives. and tomatoes. Fresh herbs, pungent feta and the perfect lemon. Served with complementary warm pita and a tomato mince sauce to start.

   Our group of 5 came to The Parthenon during a business trip. The staff was so friendly and we enjoyed the atmosphere which was welcoming to weary travelers. Great wine list and multiple options (Greek and other) by the glass. Appetizers and pita were delicious and everyone enjoyed their entrees. Highly recommend the pomegranate souvlaki. The portions were generous. Overall wonderful experience!

   The restaurant was clearly overtaxed for a Valentine’s Day dinner. It took over an hour to get our appetizer. The lamb was overcooked. The door constantly opening and closing made the room frigid.

   It took 3 attempts to get water for our table, and an hour to get our food after we ordered. The music was so loud, it was difficult to hear each other and overall gave the place a chaotic stressful vibe. The tables were 6 inches apart so u were essentially in each others lap w the people to your left and right. Since our food took so long, we prepaid the bill and asked for it to-go. Despite being told it was almost ready, we waited another half hour to get it and finally escape. A terrible experience to which I wouldn’t subject anyone.
