" I’m usually picky about Greek restaurants, but Greek Taverna wins points for flavor! The avgolemono soup was very comforting, and the stuffed grape leaves were fresh and tasty. Service was great, although a bit slow when it got busy. The ambiance was charming, creating a lovely experience overall. Can't wait to explore more dishes on my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Greek Taverna has quickly become my go-to place for Greek food! The fresh ingredients and the authentic flavors truly impress me. From the garlic bread to the dolmades, everything was superb. My only issue was that my server seemed a bit overwhelmed when it got busy. Nonetheless, I appreciate the attention they gave us. I can't wait to go back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, the lamb dish I had at Greek Taverna was out of this world! The meat was so tender, and the flavors were incredible. The service was great, with our server being friendly and attentive. While the atmosphere is relaxed, it could use a touch more character to enhance the dining experience. Nonetheless, I recognized the quality of the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an absolute gem! We stumbled upon this local treasure while searching for a good meal, and we hit the jackpot! Each dish we ordered had something special—I particularly enjoyed the meze platter to start. The service was welcoming, and I loved the warm, family-feel atmosphere. Live music playing softly in the background really made it perfect. Can't recommend highly enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a lovely evening at Greek Taverna with delightful service and authentic dishes. The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. I especially enjoyed the Greek country salad, full of fresh vegetables and herbs. The lamb giouvetsi was tender, but it could have used a bit more seasoning. Overall, a great experience and worth another visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re after authentic Greek food, Greek Taverna is where you should head! I loved the moussaka; it had all those lovely layers and was so filling. Our server was sweet and made us feel like family, which is always a plus! The atmosphere was busy but still had a cozy feel. I've been looking for a good Greek place for ages and finally found it here! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Greek Taverna was decent. While the atmosphere was pleasant, I expected more from the food. My moussaka was adequate but didn’t have the depth of flavor I anticipated. On the brighter side, the service was friendly, and the server was knowledgeable. Might give them another shot for lunch sometime. " (*Curated Review*)
