the sharing table or mezethes is central to Greek social eating. The a taverna by the Aegean sea was exactly right for this kind of eating. retsina was offered as the natural choice and it elevated everything. When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
