Came today to celebrate a birthday, made notes in the reservation and was disappointed that it was not mentioned during our meal. Server was inattentive, didn’t clear appetizer plates or soup plates and had them on our small two person table for the entirety of our meal. Didn’t come and refill our water unless we specifically requested or flagged down. The restaurant was pretty empty as it was 5pm/early dinner. Food was solid, I did enjoy the salmon and the spicy feta spread. We were not a huge fan of the lemon chicken soup, didn’t have the brightness I would have expected it to have.

Good food, but it’s absolutely ridiculous that you people are incapable of answering the restaurant phone, for some utterly bewildering reason. I called nonstop for 15 minutes and kept getting the same unavailable voicemail. How do you expect to maintain customer service when you can’t even execute the basic obligation of picking up the line? Embarrassing.

The chicken souvlaki is red meat instead of white meat.

My man and I went here last weekend for the first time. From the time we entered until we left, we had a phenomenal experience. Our waitress Meredith was attentive, poised and very friendly. The other staff were friendly as well.We ordered calamari for appetizers and salmon+seafood pasta for our main courses. We also had refreshing mocktails. EVERYTHING was delicious and flavorful.The icing on the cake was dining on the rooftop terrace. Although we went during the day, the vibes were definitely there and the views were amazing. We will definitely be back here soon.

Food was great and the service was amazing. We had the three dip appetizer and everyone loved it. We also had the calamari which was some of the best I have had in Raleigh.

John's service was absolutely amazing!! Very understanding, and was very helpful and informative about our dishes. We came here for prom and the scenery and service is beautiful.

I've been wanting to try this place for a while, and was pretty disappointed. The food was okay, lacking in flavor and the temperature wasn't great. The Sampler appetizer was greasy and not hot. The lamb shank was tender but flavorless and there was a weird flavor of cinnamon to the orzo, completely unexpected and not good, also not hot. And my daughter got the chicken souvlaki, which was dry and flavorless. But the service was awful. Vincent was friendly at first but once we got our food no one ever came to our table again. 3 empty water glasses. Wanted to order something else bc again, food was lacking, but couldn't since no one ever checked in again. Then they drop the check off with items we didn't get. So disappointed.

Excellent food and service! Make sure to sit upstairs and enjoy the city view. I came here with a group of friends to celebrate my birthday. We started off with the zucchini cakes as an appetizer. Amazing!! Very light and flavorful. We then proceeded with the stuffed trout for our entrees. This was great as well. The good was very fresh and filling. Our server was very attentive and even brought me free dessert for my birthday. I chose the baklava and it was soooo delicious! I left feeling stuffed but it was worth every bite lol. Parking wasn't too bad--we just found something on the steeer nearby. And the food prices were pretty standard. Five stars for sure and I look forward to visiting again soon!

I came here with a group for a work dinner. We sat on the semi-enclosed roof and the environment was perfect. The food was delicious, and the drinks were strong. What more can you ask for? Edit to add response to the reply: 3 stars on yelp is A-OK. This is, in my opinion, a step above what I expect when I go to a new restaurant. To get 4 stars (yay, I'm a fan) there has to be something outstanding and particularly memorable.

Eh. The fisherman pasta was not what I expected. Didn’t realize it was a sweet cream pasta. The sweetness was a bit off putting. The seafood tasted fresh tho
