    Awesome food. We shared the octopus, shrimp, smoked eggplant, and calamari small plates and the branzino entree which was deboned. The Greek Mule is a delicious drink as well. We sat outside under an overhead heater as the inside tables were all full. A bit chilly, but manageable with our coats on. Will definitely come back.
