See Gone, but not forgotten

2013-10-27 09:01:22   Four of us arrived last night at 5:45 and were told there was an hour wait for a table. It didn't look that crowded so we decided to wait. After 10 minutes we were seated. 10 minutes later the server came over to tell us how busy he was and it would be a few minutes before he could take our order. We ordered a couple drinks and off he went. When he brought the drinks we ordered our appetizers - of course 3 of the 12 small plates on the menu were not available. The server kept coming over to the table apologizing that the kitchen was backed up and our apps would be out soon. 50 minutes later they finally arrived and all of them were cold. Terrible. Our entress arrived 5 minutes after the appetizers. The service was horrible and the food not much better. If this place wans to stay in business they better get their act together soon. We were comped coupons for free appetizers if we return. I doubt we will though. —suezee

Was not impressed at all. Probably will not return

I like the clientele there and this restaurant's need to make Greece a better area than its reputation suggests. I usually stay out of Greece to avoid certain mall-goers, but this place is worth it and during their happy hour, you get a great bargain for your buck. —SRB
