Sarasota is in Florida, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Sarasota follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

We happened to stumble upon this place. All I can say is wow! The food really is very good, very fresh. We got the Cold Meze to share- (Taramosalata, eggplant dip, hummus, tzatziki, gigandes beans, Pickled Beets, dolmades, feta, olive). It comes with pita and fresh baked bread. The crust on that bread was perfection. Our waitress, Mimi, was very helpful explaining about the history of the restaurant and really just overall a delight.

Really enjoyed our meal here. Octopus was great, (could have been a touch more grilled for my personal liking), lamb shank was large and excellent and wine was fresh! Definitely coming back here again soon. Service was exceptional!

Our 1st time trying this place but it definitely will not be our last! We came here for Valentine’s dinner with 4 other couples. The owner, Djonisi, was our waiter & his mom and dad were in the kitchen cooking all the food. We felt like we were in their dining room at their home. We had the Tirokafteri (feta cheese dip) with pita bread, village salad, gyro platter, mousaka, & baklava. Everything was AMAZING! I highly recommend this restaurant! You will NOT be disappointed!
