Ammos Estiatorio NYC




Recently in New York, I found myself at an incredible restaurant, Ammos Estiatorio. Perfectly located for convenience next to Grand Central Station, we felt the open airy feeling was so inviting.

Ambiance and an incredible menu of Greek selections from appetizers, entrees and even a Pre/Post Theater Menu. "Ammos" is the Greek word for sand which are reflected in the sandstone pillars that line this open and airy restaurant. Awarded five stars by City Search, the reviewer says and quote, "Chic meets Greek on the edge of Grand Central at this elegant Estiatorio, serving food fit for a Greek god."

That evening, we were greeted by restaurant manager, John Andriotis, who showed us the warmest hospitality making our evening extra special. For a late dinner, we enjoyed a sample of Ammos' Keftedes, baked sirloin meatballs in a tomato sauce along with Macaronia tis Yiayias, pasta served with traditional Greek meat sauce. Two of my personal favorites that I love to eat at home. For dessert, John Andriotis, sent a dessert tray with a sampling of their most popular. When dining at Ammos don't skip dessert and try their unique extensive list like Karidopita with fig ice cream or Milopita, apple tart with ouzo ice cream and much more.

Next time I'm there, I have already planned out what I want to try next on their menu, which will be either their fresh fish Fagri (White Snapper) entree or Ammos Lamb Pita along with Sokolata Chocolate Cake, Strawberry Coulis and Ouzo Whipped Cream.
