Last night was an incredible time. Starting from the manager/host, Lefteris, who was super professional and sweet and extremely accommodating. He was going around the entire restaurant making sure everything was running smoothly but also had the time and energy to bring life to the party by initiating the dancing. Our waitress, Lisa, was also very attentive and sweet. She had the biggest smile on her face the entire night. We were also lucky enough to meet the owner Georgia. Georgia is super sweet and manages to run a monster of a restaurant. She has the best staff. The food was also amazing! We cannot wait to visit Lefkes again!

We dined at Lefkes as a family for my son’s birthday on a Thursday night . It was a busy night for dinner in the restaurant . Our waiter Jet was very attentive and friendly . The restaurant manager also came to our table to check on us and made sure we were happy . The food was delicious , the champagne was flowing and desert was on the house for my son’s birthday which I thought was a very nice gesture . The staff joined in with sparkles in hand and sang to him with a lit up birthday sign with his name on it . We enjoyed Thursday night so much that we went back again on Saturday night to enjoy the very fun DJ Ibrahim, who kept everyone on their feet ! The music was pumping the napkins were flying and the champagne was flowing ! Had a great time celebrating the birthday weeknd at Lefkes ! Until our next celebration we will be at Lefkes enjoying the delicious food and the fun lively atmosphere !

I stumbled into this restaurant by chance on a trip back from NYC. What a gem! First, the food quality is difficult to match. My wife and I chose the $34 menu and had to take food back home. Very generous portions. This restaurant has mothing to envy to Avras in Manhattan's E60th street. Their orange cake is definitely better than Avras. And then, add the super service. Very very friendly service, make you feel at home, Kristos, Scarlet, Lefteris and Lilian: Thank you for a great stay and meal.

New Year’s Eve review: It was okay. Food was eh. But I get it. They have to turn food fast. Took about 15-25 minutes to get every drink, again, I get it. It’s a busy night. Hostesses did their best. They were actually very kind and had a hard job. What we didn’t really enjoy was where they sat us and it wasn’t really the experience we were hoping for tbh. They should set options when booking where you know what room you are being assigned to sit from the start. Had we known we were doing a New Year’s Eve there but wouldn’t be able to join in on the NYE festivities, we would’ve considered another venue. Example: (main room table, mezzanine table, etc) We expected a fun party atmosphere, as advertised, and were seated in a family dining area without even a direct music speaker, to add insult to the mediocre environment, I guess they intended to make us feel like we were a part of the napkin/confetti party somehow by sending some guy to quickly throw a stack of napkins at us once and leave. LOL. It was actually a joke. Our entire intent of going, buying bottles ,and celebrating, was completely thrown off. We ended up not opting for bottles (just wasn’t the vibe) and rushing out as soon as we were done to another local spot. Do not recommend for occasions unless they change their booking to show options and ensure complete understanding of what you are getting upon arrival.
