    Krasi exceeded my expectations with its bold Greek flavors and incredible wine selection. The crispy chicken skin was a highlight, pairing perfectly with the htapiti. The charcuterie board was outstanding, and both the apaki and patates were flawlessly prepared. The wine menu is exceptional, offering an impressive variety of Greek and orange wines, making for a truly elevated dining experience. A must-visit spot for anyone looking to explore Greek cuisine and wine at its finest. I’ll definitely be returning!

    Food was amazing. Hotel is gorgeous but the ambience of Zuma for me didn’t match the quality of the food and other parts of the hotel. Especially for the price.

    Have dined here several times and have never been disappointed. The quality of the food is always excellent and fairly priced for the portion size they offer. One of Monica’s great qualities is its friendly service. The wait staff is very attentive and can provide wine recommendations upon request. Kitchen service is generally quick even when the restaurant is busy and have never had anything cooked incorrectly. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant when visiting the North End. Will definitely be back.
