What a bittersweet visit, to discover a true gem like this only weeks before they are shutting things down. We arrived to celebrate a birthday and we were treated to nothing short of world class food and truly genuine, generous hospitality. The beets were scrumptious, the lamb was divine. I devoured the skillet fried fried halloumi that they started us off with.
When the staff [owners, had to be] heard we were celebrating a birthday, they went out of their way to mark the occasion with familial warmth. The baclava for dessert WAS authentic and amazing.
Lots of fun, delicious food, a convivial atmosphere with unbridled laughter throughout, we had a perfect evening. Thank you Yannis (?) For giving us a beautiful memory!!

We walked in, were seated immediately. So friendly! We couldn't decide, so instead our menus were whipped away and we were told we would be taken care of and that's how they do it here! We had an incredible array of treats and salads and main dishes. Everything was beautifully made and flavors to die for. We had ribs in quince and eggplant with lamb. We had dessert wine and a cheese filled pastry for dessert. Even the flat bread corners and olives were amazing. So much care and we felt like part of the family by the end of dinner. Excellent!

Excellent Greek food but a bit pricey. Casual restaurant with a homely ambiance and look.

Everything is good here. It's crazy.
The Gyros, the pita plate with the roasted red pepper / olive / Tzatziki, the lamb ribs, the baklava...
Even the fries were cooked to Golden perfection. If you are interested in anything, it'll be amazing. If you're interested in anything here, you'll be amazed.

Easily the most authentic Greek restaurant in the Seattle area. Family owned and operated, this restaurant has all the dishes I miss from home, and then some. Reasonably priced and super friendly staff. I bring my family here every time they are in town. It makes me miss my mom's cooking just a little bit less. Just don't tell her that!

Wonderful gem in Ballard that I lived close by for years and never knew existed. I took my mom there from Mother’s Day because she had been to Greece several times and loves the culture and food. I believe it was the owner who sat us and he corrected her pronunciation gamely when she tried to speak to him in Greek. He also recommended a great bottle of wine to go with dinner that was both tasty and affordable. The food was amazing Greek comfort food and if we didn’t lick our plates clean there, we were seriously savoring some leftovers the next day. Great value and delicious food! Definitely planning on making this a regular spot.

This place is fantastic! We moved to Washington from Upstate NY where we had a lot of greek restaurants, since moving here we could not find an authentic greek place. This is it. They have those delicious classic greek lemon potatoes. This is the only place I have found in the area that has them and they make them perfectly. Everything was delicious, and we will be back for sure. My only complaint was parking, but it's Seattle so that's to be expected.

This is one of the best authentic Greek restaurants in Seattle. The service is wonderful and the food is delicious. The decor makes you feel like you are in small village being served by your long lost cousins. The first time we went, we just had wine and appetizers, family style. Love this place.
