Description
Designed to evoke the breezy charm of the Greek islands, this vibrant Manhattan destination pairs a design-forward space with a menu focused on minimalist, ingredient-driven Mediterranean cuisine. Beyond the signature catches, the kitchen turns out popular house specialties like the paper-thin, crispy Avra chips, complemented by a extensive wine list and classic cocktails. The room carries a lively, transportive energy—complete with a spirited soundtrack and a well-dressed crowd—yet remains accommodating enough for families. While it carries an upscale price tag, the polished service and vacation-like atmosphere make it a reliable choice for pre-theater dining or special celebrations.
