    It has been fairly recently sold (6 months). The food was abysmal and the service was absent. Find another Greek place.

    Lemon chicken soup was a cup of rice sitting in oil. Gyro platter consisted of dried out meat. Spinach pie was nothing to speak about. The phyllo dough was raw. On a previous visit the chicken kabobs were fairly decent.

    Food was just fair, not as good as it's been in the past. Learned that it changed owners two weeks ago, no longer owned by a Greek family and most of the staff had been let go. Kitchen was slow and the food was plain, not as tasty as in the past. Recommend giving it a few months to see if they get it back up to par or just stay mediocre or close.

    Walked in and at the desk told in wrong place (with a smile) to go to the dining room. I asked them to log in my Open Table visit so it did not look like I just didn't show up. The person said she did not know how to do that. We sat down and despite three people standing there (place was nearly empty), they told me to wait for another person to order an appetizer. Ordered mussels ouzo app and although the mussels did seem fresh, there was no flavor of ouzo or anything else for that matter, was like water. Ordered the lamb shank/orzo, the shank was tender and tasted good, but there was totally no seasoning in this dish. I added a great deal of salt and some pepper and magically, it tasted much better. The staff was friendly but not happy. Will not go back. Too many very good Greek/Mediterranean places in South Florida
