Kim BarkeMay 20, 2014This is a special occasion place, at least for us. Not simply because it's somewhat expensive, but because the service is so attentive and the food so delicious and the atmosphere so exquisite.- Douglas EllimanJuly 24, 2014Everyone who walks in is greeted by a fresh fish display. We loved the seafood saganaki; a vast arrangement of seafood sitting in a delicious tomato garlic sauce that we literally wanted to drink!
Ernesto GutierrezOctober 7, 2016Whatever you do, ensure the octopus appetizer is on your table. The tenderness, juiciness and taste is out of this world. Seafood is the specialty of the house.
The service is wonderful, the food delicious, the atmosphere enchanting... I don't know why it wasn't busier on the Friday we went, but we will definitely be back!
The Corcoran GroupOctober 11, 2011A spacious Mediterranean restaurant that’s perfect for a date or a group outing. Do not pass on the Octapodi, the Tartare Trio or the Lamb Shank.
Hung out with the Owner who is such a great Guy! The food will take your breath away! Lamb Chops out of this world!!
The service here is amazing! I love this place. Seafood is off the hook! Order the king crab leg (do NOT be afraid to get it battered), it's worth every penny.
Alex MathewJuly 21, 2013Amazing Greek food esp. if you like seafood! Make sure you try the house olive oil.
Lisa WOctober 30, 2010Try the Kerkira cocktail..on the list - with fresh raspberries, agave nectar, bitter orange, fresh squeezed lime juice and substitute the gin with Sagatiba cachaca! Fabulous!!- Thompson HotelsFebruary 24, 2012With 3 stars from Forbes & Zagat, Thalassa is one of the finest restaurants in TriBeCa. Enjoy live Greek music Sundays.
LOOSE L!PS : MikaylaOctober 9, 2013this place's seafood selection could make a grown man cry. from happiness. provided they don't have a shellfish allergy.
Giuseppe ConiglioMarch 8, 2014Excellent food! Great service ! Customer orientation above expectation !
- Lisa WNovember 10, 2010Ask the bartender (Spiro) to create a cocktail for you off the cocktail menu using Sagatiba cachaca...you won't be disappointed!
BlackboardEatsJune 16, 2011- Great deal on Sunday prix fixe, plus live Greek music & 50% off vino bottles
Gilt CitySeptember 21, 2010Zagat calls this seafood emporium “Greece’s gift to TriBeCa”, and we agree. Promise us you won’t leave without trying the honey-glazed baklava.
James John (Jay) Cudney IVOctober 8, 2017Was average. Service was slow and they couldn't explain the menu. Didn't have a few items either. Might have just been a bad day. What we are was fine tho.
richa copantitDecember 6, 2009Did you see the article in NY Magazine online? It's called Excuse me waiter, you are dripping snot in my soup. I had already heard about the article in NY Times about not letting waiters call in sic
Gale YoungApril 11, 2013Food okay. Service very slow waited 45 minutes for our wine. Fish had quite a few bones left.
enjoy fresh fish and great octopus, steak. great salads.
