One of my favorite restaurants in the city. Celebrated our older son's birthday. Saki, our waiter makes you feel so comfortable. He says, "welcome home," when he comes to your table. He is an elderly, Greek, gentleman in the truest sense. After introducing to our sons, they commented that he is like your long, lost , Uncle from Greece. Everything about this restaurant is top shelf. The grilled octopus is the best I have had anywhere. The lamb chops melt in your mouth. Extensive wine list. Beautiful bar and the dinning room has so many different options. Some very romantic. All our meals were delicious. We weren't thrilled with the sponge cake but the fruit and homemade Greek yogurt platter that Saki brought to the table, complimentary was so fresh and tasty. He was taken back by a story he had told us many months before and we remembered and asked him about his nieces wedding in Canada. It doesn't take much to make this man smile. And he truly invites you to feel like one of the family. The Estia family. Also great place for apps and drinks before the Academy of Music and the Kimmel Center if you don't have time before the show for dinner. Thank you Saki
