    Was able to get a reservation at the last minute on a busy Saturday evening. The restaurant was packed and very noisy but didn’t detract from being able to have a conversation. Service was great. It’s nice to see the owner walking around the tables to ensure all is well. It took a while for our appetizer to arrive, but we had fresh pita and three spreads to nibble on. Once the octopus was serviced three minutes late our entrees arrived. Not sure if they forgot our appetizer but nonetheless I didn’t say anything as I worked in the F&ab industry for many years and know it’s challenging during the peak dinner rush. Pastitio - generous portion, very tasty Trata - a lot of seafood and tasted fine but nothing special Octopus appetizer - grilled perfectly and tender Orange semolina cake - delicious Cocktails - perfectly made

    Always enjoy 12 Islands. The fish is so fresh and the Greek specialties so tasty. Service always makes you feel like it’s a special night out.

    A bit disappointing… After we were moved to a different table we did not get our complimentary pita bread with our dipping sauce after our dinner was served. Overall, the food is always delicious.

    We ate early so not a lot of guests at that time in the restaurant. Service was quick and efficient, the food was very good, cooked really well and tasted great.

    Love this restaurant. The food is above par every single time. The wait staff are attentive, the chef is amazing and the bartender makes some damn good drinks. I highly recommend this place. For dessert get the Youghert. You won’t be disappointed.
