We sampled almost everything, and my favorites were the honey honey drink and the gyro. Christine provided excellent service and was very knowledgeable throughout our visit. We'll definitely be back!

The owner is super kind and hands on. You never see owners like that. Foti the owner did right by opening this menu.

The reviews were pretty good.The place looks cute. The tables were disappointingly small. One of the server/bartenders allowed us to drag over a 2nd table. 1 table on its own is really just too narrow. Otherwise the interior was decorated nice with the fake vine leaves...Service kind of sucked. Just really slow with everything. Think there were only 2 people working the floor. They were both bartending and serving tables and busing tables.We got seated right away and given menus. Then it was a good long while before anyone checked if we were ready. No one came to even see if wanted anything to drink. We flagged down the guy. Placed drink and food order because who knows when we will get their attention again.We got bottomless drinks, tea, shared chicken and waffles and this whipped feta with spicy fig and sourdough.Drinks .... Um the tea was ok it came in a big clear mug with a flower on it. Was piping hot I had to put ice cubes in it. 1st tried passion fruit Bellini. That was good just a bit too much on the sweet side. Mimosa was ok but I wouldn 't get it again. Peach Bellini wasn 't my favorite. I did a check-in on the app which gave me a free espresso martini..,now that was on point.Food ... Chicken and waffles... Um NO.. the chicken batter was sad. The waffle itself wasn 't really any good, a bit too cakey... The sauce was ok. Whipped feta was nice but not great. Their sourdough tasted like the cheapest bread you can buy at a grocery store. The whipped feta felt like it needed more love.We were starving, so we ate, drank and couldn 't wait to leave. No one came to clear any of our empty glasses or empty plates. No one came to check how everything was, if we needed anything else. We had to flag down one of the people working to get our check. Then wait a while before they returned.It was a lot of waiting, mediocre food, so-so drinks and a waste of time. Sadly I think the best thing we got was the Free espresso martini. I 've worked on many restaurants.... The table next to us had a drink in a cat statue.... If you know you know... Most places will not take the time to properly clean those things. Lots of small corners that a sponge or a brush will not get into and so over time bacteria will grow... Nasty. The girl at that table said she comes there a lot and enjoy a few different drinks but said nothing about any of the food...Bottom line, espresso martini hell yes, someone said their drinks are great, service really slow, food... Um no thank you.
