   The food was delicious, the service was exceptional, the whole experience was ruined by the music and noise, it was extremely loud, it was not possible to talk around the table because the noise was unbearable, we could not wait to leave, in our party of 4 we all got a terrible headache. We tried to eat as fast as possible to leave the place as soon as possible because it was a torture. The appetizer came super fast but we had to wait around 40 minutes for the main dish, at that point after our ears had been massacred we were all deaf. It is a pity because the food is really good, but for the sake of our ears health we will not go back.

   Loved it! Spent New Year’s Eve there and the food was amazing especially the Hummus. Some of the best Hummus I have ever had. Highly recommend the Espresso Martini.

   Portions wee on the small side for lamb Sloouvaki. Spanikopita appetizer was thin hardly any filling and same comment for the mantu which did not seem like a dumpling as they were mostly tiny doughy pasta. Was charged for the basket of pita bread for three people - we thought it was part of the meal and was not asked whether we wanted it or there was a cost. Flavor was nothing special. Left hungry and went somewhere else for lunch.

   The people who run this restaurant are so accommodating and eager to please. Food is very good with lots of options from which to choose. I love their pita bread and the house-made condiment that comes with it. The dolmas are excellent. The location is really convenient to Union Square and to the SF Playhouse. Be sure to try one of the desserts.

   Nice and small place, low profile. Food was ok taste wise, however it was cold when served. We ordered garlic fries too which were cold as well. They are very short on staff, there was only one person responsible for seating, taking orders, bringing food and cleaning up after. Assuming that was the cause of cold food. So rating average at this time.

   Amazing food and service. A little cold when the door opens all the time, but overall a wonderful experience and we're definitely coming back!

   Great food and service. Everything (ceviche, mocktails, feta pasta, taziki, hummus, soup) we ordered was great except for spanikopita which was only so-so.

    Service is great, but the food is poor quality for the price. Tastes like dinner frozen food.
