Taverna Cretekou

Charming, delicious, and authentic. Had my wife's birthday meal here, and we had an excellent time. The array of Greek dishes here is excellent, all with their own flare. We had the lamb and salmon specials, which came out excellent. The menu is full of great warm and cold mezes, along with great entrees. The service is friendly, attentive, and helpful. The back patio area is extremely enjoyable for outside dining, staying cool in heat and dry in rain. We had a great time,

Best Greek food I've ever had in the US. Fresh and incredible. They have a huge range of authentic dishes and all 5 of us tried something different and all were fantastic. My only regret is that i didnt leave enough room for dessert. The sampler dinner was amazing and so filling... we loved it. The decor is great and the staff is friendly and attentive. We loved it! Looking forward to our next visit!

This was without a doubt the best Greek food I've ever had. Maybe best restaurant of any kind. I started with their thick red gazpacho which was wonderful. Absolutely amazing. Then a simple Greek salad and then a gyro. Simple but beautiful and delicious. Great service and atmosphere. Loved it. 5 stars.

The outdoor area is pleasant and most people dine outside. The service was ok, a bit slow. The food was so so as the combo platter (various greek lasagnas) was served cold in the middle so that was disappointing. The gyro was ok as the meat did not look very fresh.
