Crazy amazing food. It was so fresh! My husband had the chicken and couldn’t stop talking about how good it is. Also he doesn’t usually get excited over food so this says a lot. I had a bunch of things that were all great for vegetarian and unbelievably fresh! Everything tasted delicious! The family is actually running the restaurant and the dad came over from Greece! Oh and the owner spoke english which was incredibly awesome.
