I've been here numerous times: lunches, dinners; just two of us and larger groups. The food is generally good, a bit pricey for what you get -- but offering a nice variety of dishes. The mousaka is well done, the pastas are usually good, the dolmades are quite nice. Twice I have tried the tirimisu, and both times been disappointed: the cake was dry -- not the rich and moist treat it should be. \r

The major problem is the service, which is slow and sporadic at best. The staff is not friendly (it's not as if I need people to glom all over me; simple pleasantness is sufficient). When we were there a month or so ago for a family dinner, we ended up joking about how aloof the waiter was. \r

My most recent visit was with a woman friend at lunch time, arriving around 12:45; the restaurant was about 1/2 full. The waiter (manager? owner?) seemed irritated; as if it was a nuisance to have to serve us. When we asked for the wine list he instead spouted off the names of 3 white wines and 3 reds, not mentioning the vintners or vintages. (Assuming that we wouldn't know the difference? That was certainly his attitude.) We were served by three different people, and had to ask twice (AFTER we'd ordered it) for coffee at the end of the meal. They were NOT busy. We are well-groomed, well-mannered, middle-aged women -- not rowdies that they might consider trouble makers. \r

This is the last time I will tolerate supercilious attitude from their staff. The attitude seems to be that they don't need the business. I won't be troubling them again with mine.\r

The facility is clean. Parking can be challenging at lunch time.
Pros: Generally good food.
Cons: Attitude of staff/management
