This place was great--just a couple of blocks from the theater--really good tapas, great service, terrific ambience thanks to the serious screening from the street. A nice surprise on mid-Market!

Charming atmosphere with lots of Swiss decor to enjoy. One of the only fondue places in the Bay Area and the longest running one. Great fondue too. Good date spot- reserve the gondola for two!

We love sitting outside with our dog and having a nice meal here. The staff were very attentive and the food was great, especially the heirloom tomato salad. My only tiny quibble is I wish they had even one or two less expensive wine by the glass options … all were $17 and up. Makes for a pricey casual dinner. Next time I will save room for dessert which looked delicious.

Great mix of traditional Greek food refreshed with some and flavorful interpretations that do not stray far from the compelling tastes and textures that you expect from authentic Greek cuisine.

Great atmosphere! My husband had the curry dish which was amazing. The shishto peppers appetizer was delicious! I ordered the risotto which was a horrible bowl of mush. I only had a few bites, it was practically inedible. Loved the live music and ambiance, will just stay away from risotto next time!
