Peter Creasey Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Paul, it's getting lots of media attention. It is a very small space. Mostly good reviews but a few I'm aware of that are quite negative. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rail Paul Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 Thanks, Peter. I think Greek cuisine appreciation may be filtered the same way Italian cuisine (and probably Mexican cuisine) is filtered in the US. If it's not like your grandma's cooking, it's no good. So, a Sicilian may not appreciate the finest points of a classic Venetian or Veronese dish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Peter Creasey Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Actually, I don't think that's a legitimate factor in this case. Greek food here is pretty universally liked. Among all the accolades, the main complaints I've heard have been mostly about the service and execution rather than about the food and wine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
