What an amazing dining experience. The vibe was modern yet cozy and elegant, the service was exceptional, and most importantly, the food was outstanding. Highly recommend the octopus, shrimp, eel, lamb (the pita it came with was so soft and flavorful), hamachi, and basil ice cream. We were also told the spinach and pasta dishes are excellent, so we’ll definitely be trying those next time if they’re still on the menu. The espresso martini was fantastic as well - strong but very smooth. Thank you Kaia team for amazing food and your hospitality!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 S PJ · Jan 2026

We were lucky to get a last minute high top table The ambiance (natural colors, lots of wood) is really nice The service was fantastic. The gentleman behind the bar was also our server and really made an effort to find us the right wine as Greek wine is a bit of a mystery to us. The food … supposed to be a celebration with the best ingredients but it did not feel that festive for all dishes The crab was fantastic and def a party on a plate The rest was disappointing The potatoes were just cooked potatoes The zucchini chips tasted more of frying oil and for me did not compare to zucchini chips at Kava who I think are amazing The Spanish mackerel was nice but paired with some dry beans (would suggest a puree or so for pairing) The plates are meant to be shared but not always easy to transfer

A very warm and lovely place — I absolutely loved the vibe! The staff were so friendly and welcoming, which really added to the overall experience. The drinks were superb and beautifully made. We started with the zucchini chips, which were flavorful and crispy, though a bit too salty for my palate. The grilled beans were cooked al dente — some might find them a touch too crunchy. The prawns were a standout — juicy, perfectly seasoned, and full of flavor. The lamb shawarma was easily one of the best dishes of the night; the lamb was incredibly tender and melted in the mouth. To finish, the baklava was baked to perfection with just the right amount of sweetness — a delightful end to the meal. Although I enjoyed a few of the dishes, my overall food experience at Krasi was much better. That

The food and service at Kaia were both outstanding. Special thanks to Megan, the hostess, who noticed I was dining solo and went out of her way to make me feel welcome and comfortable. I tried the dolma (grape leaves), bluefish, shrimp with orzo, and focaccia — everything was excellent. This is modern, reinvented Greek cuisine done right, and the staff’s commitment to creating a great dining experience truly stands out.

★★★★★ 5.0 Monica J · Aug 2025

Had the most amazing dinner with my girlfriends at Kaia — it was truly a night to remember. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with such warmth and hospitality that we instantly felt at home. The atmosphere was relaxed yet elegant, and every detail made us feel like valued guests rather than just customers. The service was nothing short of outstanding. Dre, our bartender, went above and beyond — he was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely kind. He took the time to walk us through the menu, offering thoughtful suggestions that turned out to be spot on. We indulged in a variety of dishes: the perfectly tender octopus, flavorful tuna, crispy zucchini chips, refreshing cucumber, and the beautifully cooked whole fish. Each bite was a delight. And the drinks — wow! Fr
