We had dinner there with friends who wanted to invite my husband and I to congratulate us on our wedding - which happened to take place in Greece! We know Greek cuisine very well and love it very much, and so I honestly expected to be a little disappointed, as I have been with many Greek restaurants in New York in the past. Well it was not the case this time! The food was very traditional and very good.
Being a vegetarian I was not able to try any of the entrees, but we ordered a bunch of appetizers to share and they were all great! I heard from my friends at the table that the shrimp and the octopus were also delicious.

The table decided to share the mixed grill which usually is for two people. The meat tender and seasoned nicely.
The restaurant is an absolute delight. The service. The food. All to be expected in Tribeca. What it also come with is the...

In a casual conversation I was looking for an Interior Designer to help reinvent a newly acquired space of mine, that's when I was introduced to Anastasios Gliatis with Anastasios Interiors.
