    Perfect for a date night or group dinner. Make sure to order the octopus salad and the lavraki. And it tends to get cold, so bundle up and grab a glass of wine.

    Try the Lamb Chops they come as a single cut, three day marinate, wood-grilled with Greek fries & cucumber yogurt. AWESOME!! I also had the Chicken skewer with Vidalia Onions & the Pork Ribs. Superb!

    Kyma is known for its fresh fish. Right when you walk in, you notice a fresh display of fish at the front of the restaurant. I like to see how fresh the fish is, making it even more special! Read more

    The fish was absolutely delicious, and the watermelon salad was a great start to the summer season. I will be back.

    Octopus and skate fish are must-have treats. You will be pleasantly surprised by the house wines.

    The octopus is amazing. Every octopus that isn't cooked here is a wasted octopus. Also everything else is delicious too

    Great food and service, but if they put all beers in a frosted mug, even something like Terrapin Hopsectioner. Demand proper beer treatment and don't let this happen to you

    Try the Hawaiian White Tuna - The tuna is beautifully seared & rare in the middle, but the quinoa underneath is like crack, full of buttery pinenuts & bright lemon.

    Last week I dined at Kyma... it was my wife's birthday and she got to choose. Don't get me wrong, I love Greek food, but somehow the facade of the place had never really appealed to me. Shiny surfaces
