The staff were very friendly overall, and I had a great experience sitting at the bar with nothing lacking in service. The octopus was tender and perfectly cooked, while the souvlaki, though it looked a bit overcooked at first, was actually delicious and very well prepared. It paired wonderfully with a light Greek beer, which I highly recommend.

Great dinner place, the lamb was fantastic, perfectly cooked and well portioned. Outside sitting was great, plenty of heat from portable gas lamps. Fast and polite service, good value for the price. If you like Greek food, they have a great menu.

The food is good. The fish was good, but it was nothing great. The atmosphere is good, but outside can get cold. They offer blanket to people who feel cold. This makes their service spectacular. I give them 4.5 star than 5.

Tried this Greek spot and loved it! We started with the Brussels sprouts and zucchini cake, both full of flavor. The lamb shank was tender and rich, and the tzatziki was cool and creamy. We ended with the profiteroles, which were the perfect sweet finish. Awesome food and great vibes. Definitely going back!

What a fantastic Greek lunch in the heart of Burlingame! We loved everything we ordered. Appetizers included Feta and Olives, Tzatziki (with fresh warm pita!), and the must-try Oven Baked Prawns—- so plump and juicy and served in an amazing sauce. For our main course, the Moussaka was a savory casserole loaded with eggplants, veggies and cheesy goodness, while the Boutakia Kotopoulo was a huge hit — we couldn’t get enough of the grilled chicken and the mildly spiced bulgar pilaf. We couldn’t skip desserts: the Baklava Ice cream and the Chocolate Caramel Tart were a perfect ending to an incredibly yummy meal! Highly recommended!!

Great, authentic Greek food. The mezze plates were fresh and really tasty. We liked the olives and feta (8/10), and the spread platter was generous and delicious, a fun way to try different dips (8/10). The beef souvlaki was incredibly tender, one of the best I’ve had (9/10). The flatbread and cauliflower were just okay, not very memorable. The baklava ice cream was amazing, a must-try (9/10). Service was fast and friendly.

Second time here food and service was impeccable. A generous bowl of complimentary warmed pita and olive oil are provided upon arrival. This time we ordered tzatziki, tirokafteri, grilled octopus, and braised lamb shank. The lamb shank was so tender it fell off the bone. Last time I was here I had the lamb chops which was my favorite of the two. The courses were paced perfectly and the waiters were very attentive at refilling pita and water. Highly recommend for a nice lunch or night out.
