Mp Taverna - ROSLYN

We visited this restaurant during Restaurant Week after coming across numerous positive reviews. The food was excellent, and participating in Restaurant Week offered fantastic value for our money. The service was friendly and attentive. Although the decor was somewhat plain, with a dark and wooden ambiance, our main focus was the food. It was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. Overall, we had a very enjoyable experience.

I absolutely adore this village restaurant, especially with its lovely outdoor rooftop dining. The food is incredibly tasty, made from fresh ingredients, and their cocktails are fantastic. It's an ideal spot for large groups, families, or couples. On busier nights, valet parking is available. The lunch menu features a wonderful selection of frittatas along with daily specials. I highly recommend starting with the meatballs and the pita served with three dips. One day, I’d love to try the whole pig for a party. The service is attentive yet not overbearing.

For appetizers, we ordered the Octopus, Grandma's Meatballs, and Zucchini Fritters. The Octopus was tender but the portion was a bit small. However, the other two starters were both outstanding—light and fluffy, and clearly inspired by Greek flavors. For the main course, we shared the sausage and dumplings, along with fries and a tomato salad, all of which were excellent. My only minor complaint was that everything was a bit heavy on the salt. I ended up drinking a liter of water once I got home because I was so thirsty. The prices here are reasonable, and I appreciated the selection of craft beers on tap. However, the beer menu was outdated, and the bartender wasn’t able to clarify what was currently available. It would be a nice touch to have a blackboard displaying the current beer selection, as it seemed there were more taps than actual offerings, which was a bit disappointing. The restaurant itself is elegant and inviting, but I did find the presence of a TV distracting and felt it detracted from the ambiance. This isn’t a sports bar, after all. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I would consider returning.

Love this place, this is my second time and I will definitely be back again. Had the sea bass the first time and the stuffed sea bass the second time. Great service, very quick and polite. It is located in Roslyn, there isn't much parking except for the street. There used to be a parking lot here but condos were built next door so no more. Anyway definitely recommend this authentic Greek restaurant. The Chef here is professional and has a book out right now too.

First time visiting MP Taverna. Had the lamb burger which was excellent. The menu is not over complicated mostly grilled items with a Greek slant. Wine selection is OK. The beer selection is eclectic. Prices are reasonable. The space is nice with a large bar on the first floor. Will return
