The menu is a carefully curated selection of Greek classics, showcasing the diversity and richness of the country's cuisine.The mezes (appetizers) are a must-try at Ouzo Feta. I started with their signature spanakopita, a flaky pastry filled with spinach and feta cheese. It was heavenly. The tangy and creamy feta perfectly complemented the earthy spinach, resulting in a harmonious blend of flavors. The saganaki, a fried cheese dish, was also exceptional, with its crispy exterior and gooey, melt-in-your-mouth center.For the main course, I opted for the moussaka, a classic Greek dish that is notoriously difficult to perfect. Ouzo Feta's rendition, however, was a revelation. The layers of tender eggplant, seasoned ground beef, and velvety béchamel sauce melded together flawlessly, creating a symphony of flavors that left me craving more.To accompany my meal, I indulged in a glass of Ouzo, the restaurant's namesake drink. The anise-flavored spirit was served traditionally, with a splash of water and ice. Its unique flavor profile paired exquisitely with the cuisine, providing a refreshing and authentic Greek experience.As a sweet ending to my culinary adventure, I tried the baklava. The flaky pastry, layered with honey and crushed nuts, was a delightful combination of textures and flavors. It was the perfect finale to an extraordinary dining experience.Ouzo Feta is a true gem that exemplifies Greek gastronomy at its finest. The combination of warm hospitality, a cozy atmosphere, and impeccable cuisine makes it a must-visit destination for any lover of Greek food.

Loved this fresh dinner. 110% even late nights. Highly intelligent delivery, they put my hot meat in a separate container from my salad, simply brilliant. Salad crisp, food hot, happy customers! Keep up the great eats.

Wow!!!What a great authentic Greek restaurant in Hanington BeachEvery dish we ate was excellent!!!Panos the owner and his staff were extremely kind and friendly to usI highly recommend a visit

Loved this place!! Great ambiance and delicious food at a good price when compared to other local options I've seen. I've had bad luck with restaurants for some time and this one was a breath of fresh air. Our waitress was wonderful and acted like she really loved her job. The (co)owner checked on the tables regularly and was very friendly. As we found out by accident, there is live music on Friday and Saturday nights and it was really enjoyable and not overbearing. We sat right next to the duo and could still hold a normal volume conversation.I've never heard of Moussaka before but it was soooo good, glad I ordered it!The only disappointment for me was how empty the place was by the time we left at 8:30 when it should be packed wall to wall.Check this place out, you wont regret it!Two other thoughts- it's easy to miss. I drove by it twice. Look for their big covered outdoor patio. It has heaters too, so don't worry about getting cold.

We loved the food! They have great chicken lemon soup, red pepper hummus, and fresh whole fish branzino. They have a Greek duo singing on the weekends too. Try a bottle of their white pinot noir most people don't even know there is one!Food: 4/5
