Located in the heart of Greektown, this restaurant has been serving up flaming Saganaki since the late 1960's. It is large enough to accommodate big groups and serve them well. In addition to the Saganaki, all the standard appetizers and mezzes or small portions are available. The tarmosalata was bland but the fried squid was tender and tasty. The spinach cheese pies were also quite good. I had the lamb loin with potatoes and rice with some tomato sauce. The lamb was a little overdone. A selection of Greek wines and liqueurs as well as a full bar is available to compliment the food.
