Read moreWent to this restaurant for a birthday party of 10 people. The place is very clean, nicely and modernly decorated. Our waitress was Anna and she did a very good job serving our party. Was very helpful and was able to explain the menu items when we had questions.
The quality of food and presentation of it was good. The plates and silverware that a lot of other places overlook was pretty nice and did not make you feel like you’re in the cheap diner.
Now for few of minuses that made me give a 4 star rating instead of 5.
1 - Although the food is of a high quality and presented nicely, it lacks the spices and seasonings for our taste. So it is somewhat subjective. Also couple of people from our table ordered seafood pasta and did not eat it due to not liking the taste. 2 - The music started out very nice with a guy playing amazingly on a saxophone in an amazing tone and volume, but then the main music part started and the music was way too loud. So loud that you couldn’t have a yelling conversation with a person seating next to you. If owners/managers read this, I think the music could be less loud and make for a more enjoyable time. I cannot imaging taking my wife out and just sit there not able to have a conversation. 3 - The final reason is the pricing. Understandably the prices are raising everywhere, but it feels that the prices a quite high here and are higher than at comparable places.

Read moreI know where The Place is—and this isn’t it. I went with a friend for dinner after seeing a sign outside advertising “Mediterranean” food. Inside, we found ourselves alone in a massive event room. A confused waitress eventually approached, only to be joined by the owner, who explained she didn’t speak much English.
We started with a Mediterranean plate—olives, hummus, labneh, mutabal—and roasted shishito peppers. The mixed plate was completely flavorless, almost as if someone intentionally made it bland. Only the olives were distinguishable. The peppers were drowning in oil.
For entrées, we had the Greek baked eggplant stuffed with cheese and meat, and the shakshuka. The eggplant was split with a baseball-sized lump of cheese on top; the meat tasted like it came from a Hamburger Helper box—more school cafeteria than Greek bistro. The shakshuka was equally uninspired, with thin, bland tomato sauce.
Afterward, the owner offered us a free strudel or ice cream if we left a Google review. The disappointing meal didn’t bother me as much as that offer did. I’ve reviewed food professionally and personally for over a decade, and I’ve never accepted free food—it compromises honesty.
That said, not all was lost: I did find The Place—four doors down, at Wings To Go. We grabbed an order of mild buffalo wings, and they just hit different: crispy on the outside, juicy inside with a wiz bang tang! I’ll...
