Delicious little Family-owned and operated Greek restaurant. My wife and I a started with 2 crisp Mythos lagers and Saganaki that flamed quite high torching the edges. Next came the Greek Country Salad for my wife and the white bean soup for me. The salad was fresh with plenty of feta and a well-balanced vinaigrette. My white bean soup was one of the best I’ve ever had, which is saying a lot. I usually have to add a decent amount of black pepper, but the flavor of The Greek Taverna’s soup was spot on with a nice amount of pepper and herbs. For our entrees, my wife opted for the Lahano Dolmades with Cream Lemon Sauce, which are essentially Greek cabbage rolls, while I ordered the Lamb Shank. The Dolmades were phenomenal. We finished every bite and every bit of the sauce. I know you don’t know me, but trust me and order these. As for the Lamb Shank, is was fall-off-the-bone tender and cooked in a mild marinara that was delicious without overpowering the distinct lamb flavor. Both dishes came with Greek potatoes which took on distinct profiles with each sauce on the plate. To complete our meal, we split a piece of baklava that you could tell was made in house. Heavy with cinnamon dashed on top, the filo was flaky, the nuts plentiful and flavorful, and the honey drizzled just right. This was a fantastic meal. Our server was a member of the family. She was wonderful! She checked on us when needed, chatted with us a bit, and fielded all our questions. Each food item came out at the appropriate time, and we always had something to drink. Thank you for a great culinary experience! It’s refreshing to find well-executed traditional cuisine!

Is Greek Taverna still doing "Greek" night with the belly dancer ?

I've never known then to do that. They serve great, homemade" Greek food so I don't need the touristy trappings.
