There was a belly dancer for a brief period of time which was perfect. Fun but not overwhelming or too loud for us to have conversation. Later in the evening there was live music which again, was perfect. Not too loud, jazzy, and a real treat.The staff were terrific. Two out of our party of three have health/dietary issues and the staff were extremely helpful. All issues were accommodated without any difficulty.The food. Oh, the food. Not your usual formulaic Greek food which is so nice! Every dish is unique and prepared with the freshest ingredients. No two dishes taste the same (like some restaurants). We all ordered very different appetizers and entrees and each of us were extremely pleased with our meals. Every bite was delicious!It was also nice not to be rushed out. We sat and talked, ate and enjoyed the music. It was the perfect restaurant experience.

Got a slice of cheese, thrown on at the last minute, not melted and grated rotten bacon. My so-called Caesar salad was not romaine at all, some other kind of nasty stuff, a watered-down oil and vinegar and not the creamy garlic as promised. Then the waiter threw the plates at our table and turned around. There wasn't even salt and pepper on the table. They couldn't care less how they treated us. I wouldn't send my cat here for breakfast. What a bunch of horrible people.

Loved the neighborhood and this restaurant/patio; everyone on staff was very hospitable and the food was fabulous! Check out the Athena Bakery down the block for treats-to-go. One of the top memories on our trip to Niagara Falls and Toronto.
