Outstanding octopus! Also loved the Roka salad - arugula, beets, almonds , and excellent manouri cheese. Service was friendly, attentive, and speedy.
Ambiance, service and food is great! Been here twice and both times with young children and it's still like a real date night! Lamb chops are my favorite here along with a nice bottle of Greek white wine!
Amazing. We got the fried cheese, feta meatballs, and calamari for dinner, and everything was incredible and so fresh. The dessert was salted caramel baklava with gelato, and was the ever I've ever had. Our waitress Regan was amazing, and one of the best we've ever had, and we cannot wait to go back.
Ok we're going to up this rating to 10 stars. For $59 which may sound like a lot you get a ton of meat in the 12 oz selection. I would say it's equal to or greater than a 22 oz prime rib with bone in. The chef recommends medium rare which we both got. You may wish to sear it a little more to medium. I didn't get a picture of the calamari appetizer which probably had at least 30 pieces! Fantastic dipping sauce! Ambience is totally satisfactory as the place is always busy but service is attentive. Shannon was a great help with her suggestions and a killer smile. Speaking of smile, who is the young man with the accent running around keeping things moving? So friendly he is a great asset to the place! My wife and I decided this is our go to upscale restaurant!
I am not sure why I took so long to come here. The ambience here is great for dates and Greek food lovers. When you look up at the ceiling, you will feel like you are in the hull of a ship. I ordered the calamari which wasn't bad at all. When my main dish came out, the lamb chops, wow, they were cooked to perfection. They came with these large steak fries. The fries weren't bad, but I should have substituted them for veggies. My lady had the sea bass. When she offered me some, not only was it tasty, it was packed with so many flavors. Overall, Estia is underrated south NJ restaurant. A must visit place if you want to have a great food experience. Shout out to Shannon, our server for making the night fun. She was very attentive and friendly.
