After getting back from Saigon (Vietnam), the prices here put me off a fair bit--I'm used to HK restaurants being poor value for money, or having terrible food at cheap prices.My family and I spent a lot of time in Greece in the 80s and 90s, so we're pretty familiar with Greek cuisine. On a Sunday night, the restaurant was very quiet; there were only three or four tables with customers, and primarily local HK Chinese couples.

My family and I spent a lot of time in Greece in the 80s and 90s, so we're pretty familiar with Greek cuisine. On a Sunday night, the restaurant was very quiet; there were only three or four tables with customers, and primarily local HK Chinese couples. The restaurant is dimly lit with very modern decor; lots of red. We actually felt it was a little too dimly lit.
The music was modern Greek too, by the sounds of it, and fit the decor, which I found entertaining, as I remember eating in more traditional places in Greece, often al fresco.
The appetizers my mother and sister ordered were the salad with pomegranate and sultanas (I don't remember the name offhand) and the dolmades. We liked the salad, but the dolmades were just ok, IMO. We actually got a second order of the salad.
I had a Mythos beer which was served and poured nicely; pretty much a standard lager, but a nice change from all the flavorless Vietnamese stuff I was drinking! I've had them before, but it's been a while.
We got both kinds of grilled cheese, the haloumi and the saganaki with fig jam. We all preferred the saganaki.
We also got the lamb and pork souvla; both good, but we all preferred the very tender lamb. the pork wasn't tough by any means, and there were fatty bits, but it's a natural cut of meat; you're going to have some fat, and that is by no means undesirable!
They do carry three kinds of ouzo as well; I had one and enjoyed it. It's not on the menu, and I don't remember the name now, but it was served with water on request.
This restaurant serves tap water...and it is directly out of the tap. You can taste that familiar HK murkiness. Boiling it first would be a nice touch as it gets rid of the nasty taste.
The desserts were good; we got the baklava cigars (perhaps too much chocolate, we're used to the traditional baklava, sans chocolate) and another dessert that was orange-scented. That was alright too, but we all preferred the baklava.
Dinner came out to around $500 per head with the tip. Not cheap, but neither is LKF rent, and the quality of the dishes was good, as was the service.
