"A wonderful Greek restaurant. The dishes are carefully made and the atmosphere is excellent. The lamb chops and the seabass are highly recommended."

"Was in town in Sept 2025. Met some business colleagues for dinner here. Was very impressed by the dining and the cuisine and the amazing flair this place brought. The service was spot on. Attentive staff and timely. Note, I was here during UN week and even with the crazy rush of people the service as good, the food was perfect and the wine flowed. I would recommend this place if you are craving Mediterranean food with fish options. They literally have a fish market inside where you can select your choice of fish if you like. I would definitely come here again when in the area. Reservations strongly recommended."

"New York is goals when it comes to food. You want to try all the things that you don’t have access to. And obviously leave enough space for a slice of pizza. I found Kallari Tavern as I was exploring locations close to our Broadway show. It was a 10 minute walk and easy to make a reservation on Open Table. They also had a special theater menu with 3 courses. We made a regular reservation and arrived on time. The outside is very inviting with a lovely outdoor seated area and the interior as you walk in is very welcoming. A friendly face greeted us at the door and was prompt to seat us. It feels like we were in mini Greece with the decorations in the restaurant. Our friends arrived. We ordered a Greek Prosecco for the table. It was fresh, crisp and delightful. For our meal, we had a variety at the table. We got a few appetizers with the dip spread with tzatziki, cava and tyroslameti. The eggplant and mashed potato option seemed to be the additional options we considered. The tzatziki and the tyrsolsameti were amazing. The pita was soft, warm and pleasant with the dips. Our friend got the theater menu and had the calamari as an appetizer. For entrees we had a variety of things at the table. I had a the Greek salad which was amazing. It has all the colors of the rainbow, blocks of feta and a wonderful dressing. One friend got the sides of potatoes and asparagus which were satisfying. We had fried calamari at the table. And the friend doing the theater menu has lamb chops. The food was incredible, flavorful and tasty. It didn’t require additions. For dessert- since we had a birthday at the table we ordered pistachio ice cream which came out promptly. However, they also brought out a dish of Bakalava which was a nice surprise. It was soaked in the honey, had a lovely phyllo dough. The ice cream to go with it added a nice cooling effect. The meal was incredible. The ambiance amazing. Our server, Lefteris, who was kind and answered all questions ensured we made it out to our show in time. He brought us a night cap of a sweet wine to help us celebrate our friends birthday. This was hands down the best sit down dining experience in New York. Going to be on my list in New York because of this experience."

"The restaurant is beautiful. I was celebrating my birthday with a friend. This is a great restaurant to take a special someone or a an old friend. I saw a group of 10 for a ladies night out. The ambiance is lovely! The music playing was smooth jazz. I highly recommend this place...I know you will love it! We ordered calamari and octopus for appetizers. I had the Greek Salad with grilled chicken and my friend had fresh fish grilled whole! Head and tail included. Don't leave without trying the Baklava...so delish, and the presentation is fabulous, includes fresh figs, blackberries, and vanilla ice cream. My friend is a New Yorker. She said she is definitely planning to return. I went back before my flight to buy 2 orders of that delicious Baklava! 😋"
