The menu features many signature dishes. Among the start-
ers, grilled eggplant served with Greek white cheese and nuts,
truffle bulgur salad, and smoked tarama are highlights. For
main courses, you might find it difficult to choose between
black Angus meatballs, grilled sea bass with burnt butter and
lemon sauce, and grilled chicken with special sauce. The des-
sert menu’s star is the semi-baked cookie served with vanilla
ice cream.
