Irvington

About the restaurant

Outdoor dining is open weather permitting.

MP Taverna, Chef Michael Psilakis’s modern interpretation of a traditional Greek tavern, is an exciting staple in the Westchester dining scene, located steps from the Metro-North Railroad and a stone’s throw from the Hudson River. Open for lunch and dinner, MP Taverna’s accessible, Greek-inspired menu brings Psilakis’ Greek fare into the American culinary lexicon and is another step towards the chef’s goal of putting Greek cuisine on the culinary main stage.

A must is the MP chopped salad. Their dips are delicious. I had grilled shrimp, it was prepared simply, which was my request. Done perfectly

Had an incredible meal at Skara Taverna! We started with the eggplant spread, which had a pleasant, perfectly subtle smoky taste. For the mains, the grilled octopus was excellent—cooked flawlessly so it wasn't chewy at all and packed with great flavor. The standout for me was the Pork Kontosouvli. It was beautifully seasoned and super tender. Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for authentic, well-executed Greek food!

Roslyn

About the restaurant

Upon arrival you will notice an inviting outdoor dining patio that expresses traditional Grecian elements while maintaining contemporary detail. As you step inside you’ll be transported by the Santorini aesthetic where fresh ingredients hit your senses and human interaction is a refreshing priority.
Kyma’s airy, whitewashed wood design balanced by European stucco, evoke the stylized spirit of the Greek Islands. Generous seating at long white wooden tables are lined with plush, white canvas cushions. More intimate tables also dot the larger dining room. A sleek, oval bar separates the dining room from the lounge area. Here you will have your choice of standing cocktail banquettes, bar and lounge style seating. Our resident DJ will keep the energy high in this fun social spot inside Kyma. In the warmer months an adjacent open-air outdoor patio is perfect for al fresco dining with views of the quaint village of Roslyn.

Island Park

About the restaurant

Yalos Taverna is a Greek restaurant that celebrates how food, drink, people, and atmosphere come together. There's a word in Greek — yalos. It means the seashore. But ask anyone who grew up near one, and they'll tell you it means a lot more than that. It's where the boats come in at the end of the day, salt-crusted and tired, and where someone's already got the charcoal going before the nets are even unloaded. It's the table that somehow always fits one more chair. It's hours that disappear between the first glass of wine and the last bite of dessert, because nobody's really counting.

Come for lunch. Come for a birthday. Come because it's Tuesday and you don't feel like cooking. Whatever brings you in, the goal's the same — for an hour or two, you forget you're not actually sitting somewhere overlooking the Aegean. The wine's poured. The grill's going. There's room at the table.

Excellent food and service. We ate inside which was a great vibe; outdoors looks lovely. Can get loud when room is full, but going a bit earlier (around 6:30pm) is the sweet spot to have a vibe without the full house.
