Very good Greek food, a bit too noisy but it’s part of the going out experience in that place.

Great service, excellent food, and a delightful selection of ouzo and tsipouro, Kava gives off a clean, modern vibe while remaining friendly, unique, and authentically Greek. Highly recommend a visit, even if you just stop by the bar.

What a gem!!! Great food and service in the cutest restaurant. We ate at the bar, and people were actually eating outside as well. Try the gigantes beans and the lemon potatoes! Make a rezzie or you will be outside too ?

One of my favorite Greek restaurants in Boston! Best zucchini chips I’ve ever had and their brunch is to die for. This is one of those places where you can order blindly from the menu and it is guaranteed to be

This place has been creating quite a stir on social media, and I couldn't resist checking it out. Kava is an enchanting little Greek eatery that truly brings their dishes to life. Our meal began with the zucchini chips, which were nothing short of exquisite. They struck the perfect balance between soft and crunchy, resulting in a mouthwatering bite every time. The tzatziki dipping sauce was equally fantastic. For our main course, we ordered two servings of the lamb meatballs with a side of rice. The flavors were absolutely sensational, although I must say, the portions were a bit on the small side, particularly given the price. Nonetheless, the overall experience was everything I hoped for, and the staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Service is good, but the food is just OK, a bit pricey for the quality, and the place is very noisy. Wouldn't really say that the vibe is too intimate either.

I really enjoy visiting this spot for small plates and wine. I do wish they had a better selection of wine since I could only find a couple red wines I like on the menu. However, their food has been great, and it’s a really good spot to hang out with friends on Sundays for me! Definitely would go back whenever I’m in the area.
I was really excited to try KAVA due to all of the great reviews across multiple sites. Greek food is one of my favorite cuisines and I've had some of the best meals in Chicago. I wanted to see how one of Boston's highly rated restaurants would compare. The restaurant itself is quaint and I loved the simple decor - however it is quite dark and my friend (as well as someone at another table) needed to use the light on their phone to read the menu. We ordered two appetizers that were delicious - the best of the entire meal - the spicy feta spread and keftedes (lamb meatballs). If I were to go back - I would just order a bunch of apps next time. For our entrees, my friend got the hilopites (lamb pasta) I tried it and it seemed to be lacking flavor - she needed to add salt. The lamb was also in chunks that were too big for the tiny pieces of pasta. I had the mousaka which was overall good, just a little too rich for my liking. Again, if I went again - which I doubt - only apps. The service was good though.
