    We arrived on time and table was waiting for us. A large table was next to us so we were trapped in place but it was fine. Wait staff could get through the maze and it was nice to see the place crowded. We started with mezze platter- taziki was amazing with a lemon reduction and tons of fresh dill. We got the eggplant and carrot salad too. Both amazing and try carrot salad - it was better than imagined. Nothing was overly garlic and everything was balanced and dressed perfectly. Amazing “pita” was warm thin and more like naan meets warm bread. We split cauliflower and the amazing Mac and cheese side. Place looked bright, casual and comfortable. The staff was attentive and the food was amazing so run to nikos. They take reservations too!

    The diverse offerings on the Valentine’s Day prixe fixe menu looked fabulous. Everything was delicious though the filet mignon was disappointing for its recipient. With that exception the clean plates for amuse bouche, appetizers, halibut entrees and three different desserts were outstanding. Service was great.
