Description
The bakery-cafe builds its pies with hand-crafted phyllo dough, rolling the pastry into various shapes, sizes, and fillings. The menu also features a mixed platter of seasoned meats and buttery mashed potatoes, alongside a crisp sopska salad. For the mains, local feedback suggests favoring the meatballs over the veal. Plates are affordable and generously portioned for the neighborhood.
