The stunning restaurant, which is first of its kind in Philadelphia, will transport guests to the Greek Islands with an atmosphere reminiscent of an inviting Mediterranean home & a menu of authentic specialties, simply prepared, that represent the best of Greek cuisine. The restaurant specializes in whole grilled fish which are flown in from the Greek Islands, the shores of Morocco, Tunisia, & Portugal.

    Lamb was a touch grizzly, and for some reason, a big portion of the Dover sole was salty. The bread was excellent as was the desert

    I have dined here many times, but not on a Sunday for a long time. We had a new server. She was pleasant, but very prompt at the beginning. She was slow on bringing our drinks. The appetizers arrived on time and were tasty. The oysters were good and the spanakopita was good, but a little dry. The entrees arrived while we were still eating our appetizers. I had the fish of the day , but this server did not take the time to explain the preparation as we are used to hearing. I trusted the past? My friend ordered a second glass of wine. We were nearly finished dining when it came. I ordered espresso, which did not come until after the bill was presented! The food was all good, but the service could have been more coordinated and timely.

    Estia Philadelphia is beautiful. The food is always delicious and the menu offers something for everyone. The service is impeccable- old school and professional. Truly a one of a kind experience. A perfect spot before or after a show and for date night.
