Staff was polite and professional.
Was surprised by a dessert on the house (baklava).

Chicken was very moist and tasty, and the lamb kebab was excellent! The lemon potatoes were very lemons, which I love. Also; the skordalia appetizer was super garlicky, which it should be!

Loved everything we ordered. Staff was informative and happy to help us pick out what we would like and the atmosphere was nice also. My boyfriend is a health nut and there were many selections for him to choose from that was healthy. We didn't feel rushed and t was truly an enjoyable dining experience

The service was excellent. The waiter who served us heard that it was my Birthday and brought us free desert and he placed a candle on my plate. Thank you

Very welcoming service. Attractive, large space with room between tables. We went before the music started when it is supposed to be loud.

Good service, good food. You MUST get the avgolemono soup (chicken-egg-lemon) - one of the best I've had, very filling. The grilled chicken entree was excellent as well, and big enough to share. Also liked the fried zucchini appetizer with creamy garlic spread.

Service was thoughtful. This was a birthday celebration which was overheard by the host/waiter/family owner. Dessert and birthday drink were provided gratis because he overheard the statement, "It's your birthday, get whatever you want." Portions generous and tasty.

The outdoor ambiance was charming and the food and service were excellent. A wide selection of well-priced sea food combined with traditional and non-traditional kebobs made for an outstanding dining experience.

Rafina is large and attractive. The service was absolutely excellent. I am a big water drinker and this is the first time in a while I never had to ask for a refill .. the busboy was there before I noticed my glass half-full. The food was a wee bit greasy, and not quite the best Greek food I've had, but I will go back, because of the very attractive atmosphere and wonderful attention to service.

Service by server> Mostly good, but there was one particular server who kept rushing us through our meal, offering to take our plates away despite not finishing yet (this happened twice - during appetizers and during the main course). The restaurant was not crowded, it was less than 1/3 full - I do not understand why we were being rushed.

the food and service was excellent. I previously visited Rafina on York Ave and 78th st. This one is better.
