Food, service and ambiance are all excellent. Price is on the high side but with valid reasons. We had beet salad, Greek sea salt baked fish (2 lbs Mediterranean seabass), lamb chops, and loukoumadis as dessert. All are delicious. I especially enjoyed the lamb chops. The baked fish's portion was small after having been deboned by the server. We reckoned that we should have asked to skip the deboning because we could handle fish bones very well ourselves.

The food was amazing. Every single ingredient was fresh and unparalleled. This was probably the best pizza I've ever had in my life. The service made sure we had everything we needed promptly, and they were happy with every one of our asks while making us feel like regulars.

One of the best Greek restaurants I’ve tried in Canada hands down. Every dish is packed with flavor leaving you wanting more. The mussels and octopus appetizers were an 11/10. Also the beet salad was a hit. The atmosphere is more of an authentic Greek fine dining vibe and not that casual. The only downside is that the service is slow and the food takes a while to come out. With that being said, I will still come back because how good the food was.

This is the first time I’ve been to it. I like it and definitely will go back. The deco is authentic, food is delicious and servers are very friendly. I particularly like the freshly baked bread and MELITZANOSALATA. I normally are not bread or fried vegetable person, but they are so yummy and I ate so much. The entree (paella) is also good. Loukoumadis maybe my least favourite dish of the night, but it is probably because I don’t like doughnuts type of desserts but thought I’d give it a try. I think next time, I will go for lava cake or chocolate mousse.

Had a very nice dinner. The appetizers were very good. Excellent salad, pita and various dips along with some tasty saganaki cheese. The thin fried veggies - not as much of a hit. For the main course, I had the grilled fish of the day - Mediterranean sea bass - branzino I think - it was deboned (mostly) and cooked perfectly. Came with some delicious veggies and potatoes on the side. The wine selection was reasonably varied and moderately priced - there were 4 or 5 reds available by the glass. There were a few options for dessert and we tried two of them. The baklava was not a big hit with our group - served cool or cooled off by the ice cream - we tried another dessert - like a "knaffe" which was a bigger hit. Overall the service was excellent, the servings were generous, the food was tasty. I would be happy to go back.

Amazing food. Amazing service. On the pricy side. We ordered the baked fish in salt. It was delicious. The only thing that I wasn't impressed is that I felt they took most of the fish back with them after they cleaned it.

I can’t talk enough about this restaurant. It’s by far the best restaurant ever I dined in Toronto in last 13 years. Foods are beyond delicious and taste like home-made food. Excellent service and …

Good food & great service!! The staffs were warm & very welcoming . Good experience overall. We had an amazing dinner last week with a party of 10. Loved their flaming cheese and grilled octopus. Lamb chops were perfectly cook and full of flavour. Will definitely be visiting again!
