I stumbled into this restaurant by chance on a trip back from NYC. What a gem! First, the food quality is difficult to match. My wife and I chose the $34 menu and had to take food back home. Very generous portions. This restaurant has mothing to envy to Avras in Manhattan's E60th street. Their orange cake is definitely better than Avras. And then, add the super service. Very very friendly service, make you feel at home, Kristos, Scarlet and Lilian: Thank you for a great stay and meal.

Came here for lunch with some friends. We had a reservation and were seated right away. The service was excellent. Our server made recommendations, explained the best dishes in the menu, and even offered us cookies at the end of our meal. I ordered a burger and side salad with a drink. My drink was great if you like spicy and smoky margaritas. The burger was phenomenal and the side salad was good (could have used a bit more dressing for my taste). Everyone else in my party also enjoyed their meals. I will be back to try more of their great menu selections.

We enjoyed a wonderful brunch after church services today. Our server, James, was completely in tune with us, taking note of my simple comment that we are together as a family before our children go back to college. He ended our meal with beautiful congratulations chocolate chip cookies with a sparkler! So special and thoughtful! Our meals were top notch, fresh ingredients with intentional plating. The eggplant rolls for appetizer were divine, a twist on eggplant rollatini but with feta... bright flavors. The specials were thoughtful in the preparation: lobster roll, lamb shank, lobster tail eggs benedict... The bloody Mary was excellent! Without the outstanding service of James, our moments at Lefkes would not have been as spectacular. His suggestions helped us to tailor our orders. Excellent, please do not miss brunch at Lefkes!

I've heard lots of great things about this place and have been wanting to try it. My friend and I made a last minute reservation and were very happy. It's valet parking only. Th interior is very nice and moody. For our appetizer we got the octopus which was delicious. For my entree I got the cod entree and it was amazing! I was so pleasantly surprised by it. Not fishy at all. Definitely recommend this place.

My cousin decided to celebrate her birthday at Lefkes for Happy Hour and it was a great choice. The place is very spacious with indoor and outdoor seating options. The servers checked in on us frequently and made sure our glasses stayed full. The Happy Hour cocktails we tried were all really good and they also have a decent selection of beer. As for food, we ordered one of each appetizer on the Happy Hour list and then did a second round of our favorites. The Veggie Chips were fried perfectly, not too oily and paired extremely well with the tzatziki; we doubled up on those. I also really liked the Buffalo Souvlaki. It was cooked perfectly and the Buffalo sauce added a different flavor to the traditional dish. I feel like it's really easy to have overcooked, dried out souvlaki but that wasn't the case here. Honestly, I enjoyed every dish we ordered. Needless to say I left very full and satisfied. If their Happy Hour is any indication of how Lefkes is overall, they're probably very good! I'd come back.

Ok, so I was here for their 6th year anniversary celebration, it was a whole vibe. So not only is the place pretty but it was festive. Although it seems they have a dj there weekly so I suspect it gets festive here often. Oh and they have happy hour everyday (which looks pretty good). But back to last night's dining experience... We ordered the Greek dips (3) all were tasty. They came with warm pita bread. Yum! For entrees, our table had the tuna salad (dressing was refreshing and perfectly flavorful) , the scallops (i didn't try them bc I don't eat scallops but my friend was happy with them) and I had the sea bass. It was perfect. Light & tasty & tender. Mmm, I plan to go back to have it again soon. Real soon! Although the cocktail menu was inviting, we ordered a bottle of Prosecco. And then another. No cocktails this time. But will try their craftiness one day during happy hour. The waiter was not only honest and helpful but engaging, friendly and FUN! Overall a great night!
