About the restaurant
The stunning restaurant, which is the first of its kind in South Jersey, will transport guests to the Greek Islands with an atmosphere reminiscent of an inviting Mediterranean home, and a menu of authentic specialties, simply prepared, that represent the best of Greek cuisine. The restaurant specializes in whole grilled fish, which are flown in from the Greek islands, the shores of Morocco, Tunisia and Portugal, and procured from independent North American fishermen. We have created a welcoming restaurant designed with the comforts of a typical Greek home. We used materials such as hand-chiseled Jerusalem limestone floors, hand woven rugs, vaulted ceilings, antiqued stucco walls, wood plank floors and exposed wood beams to evoke the traditional atmosphere. A series of dining areas feature rustic farm tables, dark wood chairs with beige cushions and dining nooks with upholstered banquettes. The homelike ambience is accentuated with whitewashed walls.

I love the atmosphere at Estiatoro. It’s chic and friendly at the same time. Service was friendly and knowledgeable. Tonight we had the fresh grilled sardines and the beef short ribs in tomato sauce. Both absolutely delicious. Of course the sardines were a lighter choice. The beef, while delicious was a more bountiful portion. If you are hungry, go for it. If you can’t finish, take it home. I had a great lunch today.

About the restaurant
Axia Taverna features an exciting Greek menu that has earned rave reviews from NJ foodies since its opening in 2006. Casual elegance reigns at Axia with its sleek, modern layout, and "powerfully inviting interior." Executive Chef Alex Gorant modernizes the typical suburban dining experience by grouping dishes into small plates and big plates. Axia features a full bar and sommelier-chosen Greek vintages. Axia received three star reviews from both the Bergen Record and Crain's New York and has been notably reviewed by the New York Times and by Zagat. Axia Taverna...for lunch, dinner, cocktails, or private events.

Terrific cocktails, attentive service (except, as seems prevalent everywhere, when it comes time to settle the tab - you’d think it’d be the opposite). Convenient ample parking. Ambiance not the greatest when there are loud customers adjacent, but I put that to “socio-economic entitlement”. (As an aside, one finds this entitlement when driving through Tenafly. Every 4-way stop is a ‘Thunderdome’ experience). Pricey but fine for a special occasion. Food’s not wow but flavorful and well prepared.

About the restaurant
At Naxos Estiatorio, we aspire to transport our guests to the sun kissed, picturesque shores of Greece, our ancestral home.

Upon arrival, one is greeted by classic Greek Island architecture, while stepping inside reveals an old-world elegance… with a contemporary upscale twist.

We are dedicated to offering the purest, highest quality ingredients. Our menu includes the most sought after Greek Cuisine, from the freshest seafood, to succulent aged steaks, freshly carved lamb and organic chicken. Every element is chosen with care to ensure an unparalleled dining experience.

Our namesake, Naxos, is located in the heart of the Aegean Sea. It is the largest of the Cyclades islands, boasting a rich history that dates back thousands of years. With its breathtaking landscapes, charming villages, and ancient ruins, Naxos has long been celebrated for its beauty and cultural significance.

Had dinner with friends at Naxos today. Food was delicious! We all enjoyed our dinner very much. The whole Black Sea Bass dish was one of the best we’ve tasted. The Grilled Shrimp Kyklades (ladolemono, baked eggplant, tomato and feta) was so, so good! Seaside Halibut (gigantes, avocado, and kapia pepper salad, lemon-dill vinaigrette) was excellent; as was the scallops dish. Will definitely return. On our next visit, we’ll ask to be seated farther away from the bar area, which has a fantastic vibe, but for this particular dinner, we would have liked a quieter section of the restaurant as we had some catching up to do and it was a bit loud to have a conversation. Restaurant has a Beautiful ambience. The owner is very gracious. She came up to us to ask if we had enjoyed our dinner, and even took some pictures of us by the Naxos sign. Looking forward to our next dinner here!

Cape May
About the restaurant
Join us at our third George’s Place location in Cape May’s Washington Commons. Serving up the same menu you know and love from our original beachfront location, this convenient new breakfast, lunch, and dinner spot is the perfect place to grab a quick bite while shopping. We are BYOB and Cash Only. There is a $15 per person charge for breakfast/lunch and a $35 per person charge for dinner for a no-show on your reservations.


Where did the George's Place tradition get its start? In 2002, Yianni Karapanagiotis transformed what was once a quaint corner diner serving breakfast & window-service lunch into a local legend for Cape May locals and visitors alike. The cornerstone of the Kara Restaurant Group collection, George’s Place is now known worldwide thanks to a visit from Guy Fieri & Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, but remains committed to providing the community with fresh & flavorful food, plentiful portions, and fair prices throughout the year.

They were so accommodating - we wanted to order a salad at dinner (not on the menu) and were able to. Our server was outstanding - helpful, did not rush us.
