estia greek taverna & bar

the best greek food i've ever eaten. my husband and i had dinner at estia after hearing about it from a coworker. estia exceeded my expectations, which were high to begin with. the inside of the restaurant is spacious and has a great feel. the staff are incredibly pleasant and attentive. but what's really amazing is the food. it is fresh, authentic, and delicious. to top it off, prices were reasonable. we had hummus and pita (fresh from the oven!), the hot appetizer sampler (a must-have with spanikopita, beans in a wonderful tomato sauce, and the best meatballs i've ever eaten), mousaka, the fish of the day, and a desert that is some kind of custard in phillo dough baked with cinnamon and sugar. i can't wait to go back and try more of the menu.

final grade? a+

authentic and fabulous! went to estia for dinner on a weeknight. service was awesome and food was truly exceptional. fresh and flavorful. shrimp mykonos was out of this world. baklava sealed the deal. will definitely be back.

we loved everything about this place! from the service to the food everything was spectacular! we had the amazing seafood sampler which included a very balanced portion of whole yellowtail snapper, scallops, shrimp and mussels. i will definately recommend this wonderful place to all my friends and family!

100% authentic greek food. i was at estia few days ago with some friends. what a great find!!! great food, we start our venture with mussels saganaki, greek salad , saganaki cheese(yummmm) and hummus and pita complimentary! entrees the best bronzino i've ever had lamb chops taste and cooked to perfection and lamb shank by far the best we ever had before! i read the review from the food critic before i start writing my review definitely the critic had a really bad night that night! we had totally different experience from what he describe! we would recommend this restaurant to anyone we know!!! the two owners where very friendly and seem that they care about customer satisfaction!!! thank you for an excellent night!!!!

had a great experience eating at estia. the restaraunt was beautiful inside and out with old style greek decorations. the music was entertaining. the food was top notch, and the service was very friendly and helpful. it was also very nice sitting outside because although, the restaraunt is located in a plaza, it was isolated so you felt like you were away from the busy streets of boca raton.

bad ethics. i went last week with my wife and son. food and service was ok. better at the begining and then we sat there with no check backs from server and waited to finally get our bill. we gave the server a coupon we got from the clipper. a gentleman who identifed himself as the owner came over and told us the coupon came out and his system was not set up to take an entree off. but he would take off 10%. huh !! i do not usually use coupons, but i thought i would try this place since we had it. not good business decision.

new restaurant, opened 3 months ago thank goodness there is finally an awesome greek restaurant in boca! about time!

amazing greek food! excellent service great prices! awesome stuff!

our main dishes were lamb shank served with orzo and moussaka, layers of eggplant, potatoes, ground beef & bechamel sauce. by this point i was stuffed, but since i was the one who had organized the group, i had already tasted these dishes weeks before and knew they were great. this time, i took them home and enjoyed them the next day for lunch. we finished with some baklava which is a perfect balance in my opinion of sweet and savory. ordinarily they do not have live belly dancers on a week night, but they surprised us by bringing one in and handed out several tambourines to our gue

really cute & great service!. i think that this place is an east boca gem. had girl's night out here. the service was absolutely flawless and professional. our waiter saw that we were in deep convo and instead of interrupting us for our drink order, he kept his distance until we were ready which was very professional & courteous of him. the fresh pita wedges and hummus are to die for! the hummus is drizzled with a good extra virgin olive oil. my only gripe is i opted for the grilled octopus, and for $14 it was roughly maybe 8 chunks of 1 octopus tentacle that arrived super burned and too charred. the inside was tender and moist though. i would recommend adding more octopus to this appetizer to make it worth $14 and not charring or burning it so much. i understand they just opened though and will give them time to practice and work out the kinks, but we really loved this place. i will be back again to try a full meal. overall this place is an a+ for food and service and a must try in the area!!

doug - hollywood. wonderful greek menu with cooking that matches. the warm and friendly staff made the visit with my wife and son a family event.
we look forward to many happy returns.

authentic greek food. great service. lamb gyro better than our regular nyc favorite!
