The food was tasty but the atmosphere and the service weren't really good. It was really quiet inside, only one table dining, the music was somewhere in the back playing really low. The servers were a bit confused when we order because we wanted all at once but they brought us starters then mains. It was a bit depressing inside to be honest. I love Greek food and I enjoyed my food, I would love to come back to a different and more lively atmosphere.
