Molyvos delights with "fantastic food" and "excellent service," offering a genuine Greek dining experience in its new Hell's Kitchen location. The menu impresses with dishes like moussaka and lamb sliders, paired with a great selection of Greek wines. While the ambiance is "inviting and elegant," occasional noise may affect conversation.

    We’ve been here a few times and always enjoy it! The Cosmo is one of the best I’ve had, and the lamb shank with orzo is outstanding. Totally recommend this gem

    Lovely place for pre-theater brunch. Beautiful space. Warm staff. Delicious food. Portions were a bit on the small side but, hey- it's NYC.

    We love this place. Comfortable and tastefully decorated with a warm welcome and good vibe that endures. Obviously we come for the delicious food and drink, which are always outstanding. Tonight was just as tasty. But the butternut squash soup was beyond- it is sublime! Wow! Thanks for another incredible meal!

    My husband was pleased with the tenderness of his lamb shank and he is difficult to please. Their prawns are memorable.

    It was good. The service could have been a bit more polished but I’d say this is a perfect date night place. Ambiance and food were very good.

    Great experience. Greek food is a great change from it's cousin Italian. Salads were delicious, we sampled the dips which were innovative and excellent. Lamb chops were perfectly cooked and seasoned. Osso buco was a tasty change from the Italian version. Our only complaint was the wine is all greek (ok) but pricey and my wife thought the stuffed cabbage portion was too small but tasty. We will go back!

    Wow. What an unexpected find! A last minute decision to go to NYC. Found this place out of convenience. It did not disappoint. From the moment upon entry, you are taking to another place. Ambiance was just perfect. Staff was welcoming and attentive. Our server came with a smile the entire time we sat. Fabulous drink and food menu. Food has amazing flavors. great background music. I was whisked away. Would love to return.
