“Kiki's is one of those rare trendy spots that feels more cozy than pretentious, and while the food was a bit underwhelming, it makes for a good downtown date night. We went out of our way to visit this spot located in an old Chinese storefront within the nebulous borders of Dimes Square, and although packed, were happy to find a seat at the bar located in its second dining room across the street. Although arguably one of the city's most buzzy spots, the interior is hardly hip, and instead reflects a homey, lived-in Mediterranean vibe. We started out with a huge, medieval jug of their chilled white, and then settled on dinner. We started with their tzatziki and horiatiki, followed up by Greek potatoes, honeyed saganaki, and gigantes bean stew. Everything was fine, if not a bit straightforward, but nothing I couldn't get from most Greek taverna-style restaurants elsewhere. Regardless, the buzzy, young atmosphere makes this spot a scene.“

The cocktail menu is fabulous, the drinks were inventive, delicious, and presented beautifully. Bartenders were helpful, friendly, and made sure we loved our cocktails. Dinner was delicious! We were a group of four and shared a Greek salad, grilled octopus, lamb chops, and Branzino. Everything was incredible, with plenty for 4. Our waiter kept an eye on us and made sure we were well taken care of. The restaurant is very attractive inside, had a nice crowd, and noise level was good even when very full. We will be back, and often. Prices are very fair. The staff here are really great, makes a difference!“

I got home and I am stunned to see how small the portion is for $12 bucks . I know inflation is hurting everyone but I think this is such a shame . Very disappointed . Nyc restaurants are increasingly becoming obnoxious . Please be better .“

Unfortunately, my reservation had been lost when I did it on Google, but she could not have been more accommodating. She gave us a table that we could spend two hours at without being rushed. The grilled calamari, octopus, and appetizer of dips were all exceptional, as was the waitress we had. Both the waitress and Sren made a point of coming over during the meal to ensure that we were pleased with everything. The ambiance is lovely and is very inviting. I can't wait to return to this restaurant that truly values and appreciates it customers and makes you feel like an honored guest. Thank you to Sren and our waitress for a fabulous night out.“

They ran out of the evil eyes for the drinks but they gave us free shots. The waiters were all really nice and I just can't believe how many bad reviews this place got.
