Ate here today for the 4th time. STILL superb!! EXCELLENT FOOD, EXCELLENT SERVICE, EXCELLENT ATMOSPHERE,and across the street from the Port Authority?! Who knew? What a find!
Although I usually don't agree w/a lot of food bloggers, these are definitely reviews I totally agree with.

I think their chef used to be at Periyali. No wonder!
The "Islander" salad, with the grilled fennel, haloumi cheese, and figs is amazing. Also, check out the Pikilia. Everything's superbly fresh and homemade. Make friends w/your waiter and mgr.
The wines are all greek and delish.

And here's their menus. Looks good.

Those scallops are getting ripe, though...

I've passed it a couple of times, now I may actually step in. It looks really pretty from outside.
