A lively and colorful atmosphere dictates the mood at this Greek eatery in Murray Hill, where grill and other specialties are served nightly. Grainy walls of yellow ocher, exposed brick, and rustic trappings give the restaurant a warm and cozy feel. The authentically prepared menu consists of hot and cold appetizers, including a tender and meaty grilled octopus lightly seasoned with lemon pepper and salt to lend a touch of zest. Otherwise, no other seasonings are added to detract from the natural flavor of the octopus. The same thing holds true for the char-grilled entrées like braised baby lamb simmered in tomato sauce (accompanied by roasted potatoes, herbs and Kefalograviera cheese) and baked in a clay pot. This style, called "pylina," holds in the hearty flavors of the stew. The wine list is international, including a few affordable Greek bottles.
