    If it weren't for the noise level I would give it five stars. I was out on a date and there were moments (not overall) when it was very loud and none of your staff seem to make an effort to quiet down the crowd. I go back again but just be more mindful of that

    Varka is a really great place to go for work, family, date, or friends. We have been here before over the summer and the outdoor space is heavenly. The winter scene is cozy, warm, and great for conversation. They have really great options for seafood and we always enjoy the oysters as an appetizer. I like the little details they added to make it feel more rustic while still remaining a pedigreed establishment for a delicious meal and great conversation.

    Loved the food and the ambiance. There were so many dishes that we did not get to try that looked delicious. We will be back!

    All 7 of us were delighted with our apps and dinners. From the excellent chicken fingers for the two-year-old, to the octopus appetizer (even my wife and daughter tried and loved it!), to the Plaki, angry lobster, shrimp scampi, and the steaks, everything was top-notch and delicious. We didn't have time for dessert, since the baby was fading fast, but I would have liked to try the baklava!
