   We were initially served wedges of pita brad and dipping sauce - we could have eaten a pound of these! We had the saganaki flaming cheese appetizer, which is wonderful-the taste is smooth melted cheese with a hint of Sambuca. My main course was the salmon fish, with thinly sliced fries that have absorbed sauce that blends old world flavor that also enhances the flavor of the broccoli rob. For desert I had the Baklava. It was moist with a nice proportion of honey. This was our 3rd time there.

   The food was excellent, and the service was perfect. The restaurant was full to capacity, I was so happy to see their success. We really needed a vibrant new restaurant in Downingtown.

   A delightful surprise. We chose this resto from a yelp recommendation. It’s really extraordinary. The food and service are top notch. It’s really near Longwood Gardens so an excellent choice while visiting. We’ll be back.

   Excellent food and will be eating there again. The humus and falafel were the best I've ever had.

   Strings of lights brightly outlined the restaurant against the night sky, a welcoming beacon of joy that playfully peeked out from between nearby buildings as we approached on Manor Ave for our 19:15 EST reservation. The parking lot was unconventional, with four spots near the front door, approximately six parallel spots on the east side of the building and a small number of spots behind the restaurant that were mostly reserved for handicapped parking. There were an additional four spots behind those (to the north) but they must be accessed via Ax Alley rather than Lincoln Hwy. Once inside, the ambiance is relaxing and welcoming. We waited only a few minutes to be seated and had a very attentive server. There were so many delightful sounding options, it was challenging to choose among them. After ordering, we received warm pita and oil and balsamic vinegar to dip it in. It was wonderful. We shared the Keftedes and Shrimp Lejon appetizers then followed up with a Myrtis salad and the Lavraki filet. All in all, it was so wonderful we will definitely return again in the future.

   We will definitely be back soon! Everything we ordered was so delicious and authentic. The Avgolemono soup, falafel app, spanokopita all stand out! We ordered the roasted chicken with lemon potatoes and also the scallops with greek lima beans and would order them again! So happy to have a local greek restaurant and everyone was so welcoming and friendly. Thank you

   In all respects a very nice restaurant. This was a first visit and the parking, which very ample, was just a bit tricky. Nothing major, just a surprise.

    Having recently returned from a vacation in Greece, we wanted to see if we could revisit through Greek food. And we did! We shared the grilled octopus appetizer, then ordered the gyro and pork souvlaki as entrees. Everything was delicious and authentic! Our server Dina was attentive and so much fun. We’ll be back for sure!
