Reviews
**The first pizza is from Galazios. The second pizza is from Ruccis, in White Plains (where I went straight after the fiasco with the Galazios pizza, and ugly manager). I had to put my Ruccis’ pizza in the airfryer b/c it was cold by the time I got it home. Same ingredients y’all!!!
Huge difference in the craftsmanship! And the Alfredo dipping sauce that I paid $5 for at Galazios, only cost a buck at Ruccis (w/much better flavor)!!!
The restaurant is bookable via Resy, making it an easy choice for those looking to apply dining credits from American Express Gold or Platinum cards, always a welcome convenience when planning a night out.
Despite being a weekday, the dining room was notably busy, buzzing with the energy of what feels like a family-run establishment. There’s a warmth to the atmosphere, personal, lived-in, and authentic, that suggests a loyal local following. That said, it was clear the crowd may have slightly outpaced staffing levels. While the service itself was courteous and attentive, there were noticeable delays with drinks and refills, understandable, though worth mentioning.
We started with the Southern Maryland Crab Dip, which delivered solid flavor and a generous blend of cheese and crab. I would have welcomed a bit more artichoke heart for balance, and perhaps an additional slice or two of bread. With only four slices provided, the ratio leaned heavily in favor of the dip, fortunate in abundance, but impractical in execution, as even those slices were quickly overwhelmed.
The Chicken Kabob proved to be a reliable and satisfying choice, tender, well-seasoned, and thoughtfully plated. The accompanying sides of sautéed broccoli and grilled zucchini were properly portioned, with the zucchini sliced just thick enough to retain its texture and flavor.
When deciding between the Makaronia Me Kima, Basil Pesto, Galazio Special Carbonara, and Pastitsio, I deferred to the waiter’s recommendation. Without hesitation, he pointed to the Pastitsio, a choice that paid off. Comforting and familiar, it’s a dish many have enjoyed in different forms without necessarily knowing its proper name. The portion was generous enough to leave me with leftovers, which made for an excellent lunch the following day.
Dessert brought the evening to a high note with the Greek Chocolate Mousse Cake. Lighter than expected, it avoided the density often associated with chocolate desserts while still delivering richness and satisfaction. The portion was ample and easily shareable.
Overall, it was a very good dining experience, welcoming, flavorful, and largely well-executed. One small disappointment, however, came in the form of a missed detail. When booking, the reservation notes requested acknowledgment of my GF’s birthday, not a complimentary dessert or special treatment, just a simple candle to mark the occasion. Unfortunately, it went unnoticed. It’s a minor thing in the grand scheme, but one that matters in moments meant to be remembered. Had I known it wouldn’t be honored, I would have brought a candle myself.
That aside, the experience was still a positive one. I would recommend the restaurant and expect to return. With just a bit more attention to the finer details, it could easily elevate itself from good to truly memorable.
Pricing is a little high (like everywhere these days), but worth it for a good night out. My husband has an alpha-gal allergy, and both visits they were happy to accommodate and double-check with the kitchen, which we really appreciated.
My only small wish? That it wasn’t in a parking lot but honestly, the food and drinks make up for it. Definitely a nice local spot for a relaxed date night!
The coffee was amazing and will be coming back for that alone, but also for the dinner menu. Enjoy!
