    Made a reservation for 7pm on a Saturday night. We were seated immediately, our waitress came and opened our wine bottle and took our order within a reasonable time. Everyone in my party got something different, and it was all amazingly good. We did not get dessert because we were so full, but the menu looked great and everything was reasonably priced. I will definitely be back!

    Our waiter was beyond solicitous. However the food was extremely disappointing. We’ve been to THAVMA many many times and this was a real disappointment. THAVMA chips were way over cooked. Fish was also overcooked and tasted very fishy. We ordered salad with goat cheese instead of feta and it came with feta. Pasta dishes were so overdone they were inedible- at least five minutes too long on cooking the pasta. We asked for a salad instead and they brought one without dressing. It’s as if the chef hadn’t taken a single cooking class. Very disappointing. Waiter was very apologetic and took off the pasta dishes from the bill. He kept bringing us baskets of pita. Would think twice about going back.

    This turned to be a quiet place to meet for a "discussion meeting." We both enjoyed the food, and the service was outstanding.
