Mythos

I wanted to like this restaurant, but was disappointed. Our entrees were dry and the side of green beans was so mushy it was inedible. Definitely overpriced for the entrees we received. The staff were very friendly. Maybe we went on a off night?!

Truly outstanding! This is the place to go if you want a relaxing dinner with long conversations and don't want to be rushed to order, rushed to eat and rushed to get out the door. My favorites are the pastichio (ground beef, macaroni & yummy cheese), Chicken Reganate (1/2 chicken), teramousalata & the veggies (I find that not many restaurants know how to make delicious cooked veggies). One thing to note is that Mythos doesn't start to cook your chicken until you order it. So if you want the chicken Reganate and don't want to have a long relaxing dinner then you'd better order it when you walk in the door. If you don't want to wait for your chicken to cook then you can go to some other place where the chicken has been sitting under a warming light since 4:00 when they cooked it. Try this place, the food is fabulous, the service is perfect, the owners have vibrant personalities, the atmosphere is comfortable and on top of it.....it's BYOB!!!

From our salads (basically a bowl of shredded lettuce & two kalamata olives, and charged $5.00 for a few pieces of feta cheese) to the main course, this place was a huge disappointment. We ordered our main courses at approximately 8:15 to a half seated room, and they were out of THREE entrees, one of which was lamb (out of lamb at a Greek restaurant???), and believe it or not a side selection of POTATOES. The owner tried to make light of the whole situation, and offered no apology, although she did bring over a complimentary pasta dish. Not only were they out of almost everything we initially ordered, the food was less than medicore and overpriced. The tilapia looked like a few slivers of fish basically thrown on the plate, and my Grecian Chicken was bland and tasteless. The best part of this dining experience was the company at our table and the wine we brought ourselves. Stay away from this place, unless you want to spend a lot of money on bad food and bad service.

Bad, bad, bad. We waited 30 min to order our food; they were out of both of our first choice dishes (at 8:00 when the restaurant was 1/2 full); an hour after we had ordered we left without eating because we were tired of waiting, and we were not hungry any longer (disgust sort of overtakes hunger). If we could give this place 0 stars we would. Not only will we not recommend Mythos, we will discourage all of our friends from going to this horrible, horrible place. Bad.
