MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

As its name in Greek suggests, this stunner is making “waves” in town by way of Roslyn, New York. The space transports diners to the Ionian Sea but it’s not just beauty that bewitches here. All Hellenic meals begin with a panoply of spreads, so using a warm pita, scoop up the pikilia trio with feta, hummus, and taramasalata. Calamari stuffed with four cheeses and served over a Nafpaktos tomato sauce is a winner. Then, a basket full of golden-brown halloumi fries served with two dipping sauces is nothing short of satisfying. The menu also lists a series of freshly caught fish such as  lavraki, a beautiful sea bass served whole, and meat dishes like the short rib youvetsi. Ekmek kataifi, featuring shredded phyllo and semolina custard, is a fine way to end this Greek feast.
