JUST GREAT!!! – Amazing!!! I was there this weekend and felt in love with this fabulous place. My girlfriend was very impressed with the nice attention and beautiful design. The excellent selection of psaria (fresh fish) was gorgeous; we had red mullets to start and they were so sweet and flavorful, just as our server tells us. The main dish as good as the appetizer, we share a nice Fagri (Mediterranean white snaper). No mention the nice selection of wines from all around the world and the tastefully desserts. I really recom... read more

Best restaurant experience in years! – I don't even know where to start with this review. Everything from the ambience to the food was absolutely perfect. My mouth is watering just thinking about the wonderful appetizers not to mention the superb entrees and devine desserts!!! The staff was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was warm, elegant and relaxing. I can't wait for my next trip to NY so that I can experience Kellari's again!

Fabulous Greek Experience!! – I was invited to Kellari last weekend to dine with a friend, and let me tell you that this is one of the best restaurants I have been to in NYC, if not the best! Kellari is the kind of place that makes NYC famous for fabulous dining. The ambiance is incredible... golden lighting, rustic yet classy decor, a beautiful display of fresh seafood, and live Greek music too. The service is impeccable, and the food leaves absolutely nothing to be desired! Be sure to try the warm goat cheese with apricot ... read more

Best Greek restaurant in the City period. – I am a New Yorker and i love good Greek food. There are many good Greek restaurants in the city, but like Kellari Taverna no other. I visited Kellari for the first time last weekend for a friends birthday party and i loved it. The hostess the waiter and the food was all amazing. I had fresh Whole fish called Lavraki or Bronzino and was cooked perfectly. The fresh fish display had from Live lobsters to a 10 pound Red Snapper. It's been open for less than a year and i didnot know abo... read more

Excellent Food! – I had friends visiting from out of town and decided to try Kellari for the first time. I was very impressed. Oh my God!!! The fish was to die for. I love the decor too (warm and cozy atmosphere), but the food is what really stands out. I wish we didnt have a play to catch, cause I would have loved to stay longer and try a few more dishes. Maybe on my next visit. I highly recommend this place. Its a classy Greek Taverna.

Terrible Food and even Worse Service – We had a terrible experience this past weekend. We had an early reservation and were seated promtly by a very nice hostess. When the server approached our table instaed of a welcome we were told we could not order food for a half hour because the kitchen was not ready but could have a cocktail . Well, why take a reservation if you are not ready. We were given old bread because the bread had not arrived yet. Once the food arrived it was just plain bad. The mousaka was cold in the center ... read more

Perfect couples spot – I have to say that I totally enjoyed my experience at Kellari's. The food, wine and professional service were the best. It brought me back to flavors of my childhood, coming from a family of Mediterranean roots. We loved the fish and chicken and especially the Greek wine. Although, the taramasalata was a bit mellower than my family makes--it was still good.

Lovely atmosphere and delicious food. – This was my first Greek experience. The atmosphere was lovely. We didn't have a reservation, but the hostess was awesome and received us with a smile. The food was delicious. The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable -he wasn't Greek, but he was able to pronounce and explain everything, even the manager came by to welcome us. We were only three so we ordered different appetizers and had a blast. Everything was fresh and delicious. I am hooked on the octopus and can't wait to go back. O... read more
