Elmwood Park · Opening Fall 2026

A Greek taverna is coming to North Avenue.

Charcoal-grilled meats and whole fish, meze for the middle of the table, Greek wine and ouzo, and a dining room made for long dinners with family and friends.

Opening news and first-week reservations, nothing else.

What to expect

Cooking the way it's done on the islands: simple, generous, and meant to be shared.
