We arrived and the place was empty. We were greeted and we chose where to sit. The server Jose was very nice.
I was really upset about the menu offerings. It was over priced due to Covid as is most places.
Here is what we ate below.
First is the shrimp with spinach over orzo. This dish needs to come with a choice of rice. It was about 24 dollars. It should come with at least 10 shrimps at that price for that size. The spinach and shrimp were cooked well. The chef did a gold job. We had the feta on the side and the feta they have was fresh and good.
Second was the lamb with tomato sauce we asked for the sauce to be put on the side for everything. It came out like this the meat needed to be larger pieces and more crisp than that. The tomato sauce was over bearing but it was a decent flavor. My guest did not eat anything they lost their appetite.
Gyro sandwich 12 dollars. It was filled with fresh salad and good ingredients. The meat i was unimpressed it was salty and in pieces. For that price I was expecting nice strips of gyro meat. Instead I got pieces. It was more garlicky then I remembered. The presentation was good. Nicely wrapped.
Last, we has the greek salad with chick. For 19 dollars plus 7 for the chicken not sure it was worth it. The chicken was flavored well but it was chewy. The salad was very fresh and crispy they used fresh veggies. Again asked to keep the sauces and dressings on the side they put it in the salad. We like to add the dressing or sauces as we see fit.
I would not call this an authentic greek restaurant and the cost of the food over $100 dollars does is not merited. Its a slightly quality dine in restaurant.
In montclair there are smaller places which give more portions with similar or better quality food and more menu choices.
I was upset that I asked for a half chicken just to be grilled with rice and spinach and they would not make it. The server did not ask the manager or try to accommodate us with that especially that one guest was watching us eat. I had to stop eating in the middle cause I couldn’t continue to eat while they were not.
I will not come here again unless they drop the prices significantly and provide more menu choices.
Overall it was a decent experience but there was many things that could be better at this price range. I have eaten in high class restaurants in Austin within the Domain for the same cost.
Wish you the best and thank you for your service. If your food was adequately priced with more menu options your restaurant would be worth another visit as the presentation and ingredients are fresh but you have to work on the meat and chicken with a...
Read moreI was hesitant at first when I realized this was a chain but decided to dine there with my 2 friends. The servers and manager looked Greek, good sign. Menu was comprehensive and included a few items I haven't seen at any Mediterranean or Greek restaurant in a long time, a very good sign. One of my guests ordered grilled chicken which smelled delicious, was a large portion and he enjoyed very much. My other guest Mousavi which was outstanding (she gave me a taste) and also a generous portion. I was so impressed with the menu that I ordered 4 appetizers for my lunch: stuffed Grape leaves (8), hummus (only so so), taramis....(sp?) which was caviar in a creamy white tzaki-like sauce, and spanakopita also outstanding. All my 4 appetizers were generous portions and seed very authentic. My guests passed on desserts but I had a black coffee which was excellent. All in all a delicious lunch and very pleasant dining experience. Service was very attentive. All menu options I though were very reasonably priced.. Parking is available in the mall in front of the restaurant. I definitely plan to dine there again and highly...
Read moreI’ve never been more confused by so many positive reviews. Placed a door dash delivery; 2/3 meals were wrong. When I called to let them know, I spoke to 2 people, the first didn’t seem to know anything, the second didn’t let me get a word in and yelled at me. Their website menu doesn’t match their door dash menu. The photos don’t match. There’s no way to know what you’re ordering apparently. He placed the blame on door dash for why we ordered platters but got pita sandwiches.
As far as the food quality, umm what quality? The zucchini was so soggy, like it had been sitting out all day, I understand moisture and what not, but a restaurant should know how to pack their own food to minimize that. Not that it would have saved them because they were entirely Tasteless. The tzaziki, tasteless. The chicken and fries were 100% frozen. And, tasteless. Absolutely nothing had any flavor. It’s actually remarkable. This place is the subway...
