    Krasi exceeded my expectations with its bold Greek flavors and incredible wine selection. The crispy chicken skin was a highlight, pairing perfectly with the htapiti. The charcuterie board was outstanding, and both the apaki and patates were flawlessly prepared. The wine menu is exceptional, offering an impressive variety of Greek and orange wines, making for a truly elevated dining experience. A must-visit spot for anyone looking to explore Greek cuisine and wine at its finest. I’ll definitely be returning!

    Fried haddock from Gloucester was very fresh and delicious. Guinness was fresh and well-poured. Winter punch drink was yummy. Bang bang shrimp was tasty, but I was expecting crispy sticky shrimp instead of a creamy sauce. The shrimp were a good size, though. We would go back again! Loved the cozy atmosphere.

    Overall service, ambience was good. I had the fresh haddock fish & chips which was excellent and plenty of it, couldn’t finish it and took half home. Hubby’s burger good and cooked as ordered. Other two in party ordered the tips which they said good but not that tender and didn’t finish them. Caesar salad side was just ok. Lots of good choices on the menu to try, prices are a bit higher than other places we’ve been for the quality we got. We would go back however.
