Horrible and excrutiatingly slow service, to boot. 45 minutes before we got our runny flavorless eggplant not so appetizing appetizer. Not even busy at the time. God, this place is pathetic. I lived for years near Greektown in Baltimore so I know how good this food can be. Review food you know something about.
