Food and service were superbe, but the music could be too lound for some custumers. I was also surprised there were no "little" something for my wife's anniversary. We will be returning to this location, I highly recommend it.

Excellent meal as always. The food is delicious. We ordered pita with whipped feta, shrimp, half haloumi salad, half chicken and EVOO fries. Absolute perfection! We brought home some and the smell of it being re-heated immediately took me back to our delicious meal. Highly recommend EVOO.

We met another couple and we were all very happy from beginning to end. The service and atmosphere were very nice. The sharing concept worked well and we all loved our choices of food. The restaurant has a welcoming, cozy atmosphere even though it has a large seating capacity. We are already looking forward to going back.
