Rachel SheppardJanuary 12, 2016Very expensive and a little stuffy but the ingredients are very fresh and delicious, especially the seafood. The grilled octopus was incredibly tender. I enjoyed the tomato salad and swordfish a lot.Upvote5Downvote- PiNovember 7, 2017The trip from NYC to Varka is totally worth it. Delicious food, great service and one of the best Cheese Cakes I’ve tried.Upvote3Downvote
william verondaOctober 10, 2017Fabulous whole fish. On the expensive side, but worth it. Try also Greek fisherman's chowder and baklava.Upvote2Downvote- Josh MJune 11, 2014Great fish dishes. Grilled octopus is excellent. Get the house made Greek yogurt for dessert!UpvoteDownvote

Chris DeSanctisSeptember 12, 2013Wine program has little to no effort put into it. Half the time they are out of stock of the wine you pick. Wine by the glass is sooo over priced. Food is great thought.UpvoteDownvote

- Randy KayeMarch 12, 2017Addendum to my review last night. $28 octopus and $20 for eggplant chips! WAY OVERPRICED. I said once a year more like never again. Food is good but no value at all. $250 per couple, no thanksUpvoteDownvote

Glenn HerdlingSeptember 2, 2022Stop at an ATM. They charge a 3.5% surcharge on all credit cards. Who does that in this cashless age?UpvoteDownvote
