    It’s beautiful, the service was great, and the waiter steered us to the pre-show option which was a terrific bargain, and includes appetizer, entrée, and dessert. I had the Greek “greatest hits” of spanakopita, moussaka, and baklava. All were the best I’ve ever had. My friend had never had Greek food before and I think he’s now hooked! A great meal.

    Superb experience! Beautiful dining room. Kind and attentive service. Hummus with bread for the table was silky smooth, refined and flavorful. We thoroughly enjoyed our first courses which included romaine salad, flaming saganaki (Opa!), and grilled octopus salad. Tsipoura and paidakia entrées were outstanding. We chose the grilled vegetable plate to accompany our main course—generous and beautifully prepared. Dessert included refreshing lemon sorbet and heavenly Greek cheesecake which was drizzled with honey and sprinkled with chopped pistachios. We regularly enjoy Greek food, and this meal was exceptional!

    Quiet, romantic, great food and drinks. We had a lovely 30th anniversary dinner. The Manhattens were "out of this world" exceptionally good. Staff was wonderful. We couldn't have asked for better meal and experience.

    We love it here because the surface is very quick knowing that we are going to see a show next-door. The food is excellent, the drinks are as well. We love to sit at the high tops.

    We dined at Estia prior to attending a nearby concert. We have dined here before and have always been pleased. We chose to order from the theater menu. All of the courses were delicious. The server did a very noce job of pairing wines with our various courses. Highlights were the spanokoptia, lamb chops and baklava. We'll certainly return soon.

    Hello.. as always, Estia does not disappoint. From service to food. But missing the the old tuna tart dish, the new one is not the same missing the avocado. It’s just not the same experience. But of course will be back in just few weeks.
