" Despite the ups and downs with service, I always find myself looking forward to the food here. The seafood risotto was creamy and beautifully presented. Portions are significant, making it a good value for the price. " (*Curated Review*)

" I haven’t found a place that does Greek food quite like Costa’s. The Greek potatoes are heavenly, and the tzatziki is always very fresh. My only complaint would be that occasionally, the service can be a bit slow during peak hours, but it’s worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing great reviews, I tried Costa's for dinner and didn't love it as much as I hoped. The spaghetti was decent but lacked that homemade feel. The service was friendly, but it took a while to get our order. The atmosphere seemed outdated, which detracted from our experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was quite impressed with the authentic taste of the Moussaka I had. It was rich and well-seasoned, reminding me of my grandmother's cooking. The restaurant could use a little sprucing up, but the food makes up for it. I'd recommend this place to anyone who loves true Mediterranean cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not impressed this time around. I found my pasta to be tasteless, and the service was a bit lacking. However, I've had good experiences in the past, so it might just have been an off night for them. " (*Curated Review*)

Archived Reviews (804)

" Service was slow, and the staff seemed disorganized. I waited nearly 40 minutes for my meal. The eggplant Parmesan didn’t taste fresh and was quite greasy. Décor is entirely outdated, but I’ve heard their pizza is worth a shot next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a lovely evening we had at Costa's! I had the shrimp scampi, which was not only beautifully presented but utterly delicious. Our server was attentive, and the ambiance was perfect for a night out. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)
