Just down from Manhattan. Some teething problems in the service, e.g., I reserved a table for four and they sat the guests at two different tables! The food is superb, the octopus as good as Greece and the prices are high but average for the locale. It already fills up for business lunch.

Best quality traditional Greek Food within 50 miles of the Capitol Building. Have to eat at home to do better. The decor is right out of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" but sitting outside on the sidewalk tables on nice nights is very pleasant. The service is enthusiastic, will not rush you and friendly and always gets it right. Pete the owner always come out to make sure you are happy. Parthenon has an attached but separate sports bar

Boring conventional Italian food masquerading under fancy names and funny combinations. Cannot identify a region. On the other hand, it is well worth the money and the food is not bad just nothing to remember. Nice people serving you though they push you a bit to empty the table.

It just reopened; should have stayed closed. Ordered the "rogue burger" as "no pink" with blue cheese topping. They got the blue cheese topping close. It was really a thick blue cheese salad dressing. The "no pink was "dark red" instead. I picked up the bun and it literally disintegrated in my hands followed by the burger. The bun must have been frozen and defrosted. Picking up the pieces presented a challenge.
