I came here before dinner time and was craving spanakopita. They did not dissapoint. It was beautiful and the olives and feta were excellent as well. I thought the prices were reasonable and its easy to enjoy vegetarian. Friendly staff. This place should really be booming for its lovely authentic atmosphere, quality food and nice service.

When I worked in the area I used to often enjoy The Oil Lamp for lunch. They were a quick lunch spot with wonderfully tasty food & occasionally I also ordered take-out for a quick at my desk option.

I read the reviews and i was excited to eat here as i love greek food. Unfortunately to me the best thing i ate was the potato on my plate. I had calamari and tzakiki and it was bland and tasteless. I had lamb chops and they were tough my jaw hurt afterwards. The waitress was sick and kept coughing into her hand which she then served us food. I was not impressed. Id rather save my money and eat at Opas at least get some flavor with my food.

I ordered Roasted Lamb for pickup, and let me tell you. It felt like am chewing a shoes, it is so bland and looks like a jail food. I even got barely any rice, the potatoes are dry and disgusting. Definitely not coming back and wont even refer this place to any of my friends.

Such a cute and cozy place! We walked over after visiting the art gallery on a Saturday afternoon, and the restaurant was completely empty! Not sure why, because the lunch specials were awesome. I had stuffed grape leaves with Greek salad and roasted potatoes, and my partner had the spanakopita with rice and Greek salad. Both were delicious! And only $13 each (including the two sides). A little revamp on the exterior, and this place would be perfect. Definitely a good lunch spot and would come back :)

Gave meat dish to vegetarian. I ordered stuffed green peppers which are supposed to be filled with cheese and vegetables. The one I got was stuffed with rice and beef. I realized after having a bite and called the restaurant. I got no apologies from them instead just got a rude response that they cannot list all ingredients of a dish. Avoid at all costs. You just cannot be sure what will be on your plate.

A great place for lunch. The roast lamb is probably the best in the city, and unbelievably priced under $20. The marinated chicken is just delicious, too. The place looks great with exposed brick, wood ceiling and Tiffany chandeliers. Date night, family dinner or business lunch -- this place will meet your needs.

Very nicely appointed Greek restaurant on 97th st. The menu covers the standard Mediterranean items - I had the fried cheese appetizer called Saganaki , a must have for me at any Greek restaurant- it could have been hotter - in fact should have been hotter, but was so delicious I will have to let that slide! As a main I had the lunch special calamari with Greek salad and roasted potatoes. The fish and salad were very good but the potatoes had too much lemon for my taste. My fellow diner thought the potatoes were great so there you go. The room was empty when I sat down at 11:45, and completely full when I left at 1. Prices are reasonable but portions seemed small, which actually suits me.

A half teaspoon of sauce on each leaf on the salad. Soupy grease on the gyro when the plate was put down. Hard calamari.

Went to Oil Lamp for a business lunch. It is laid out nicely for business meetings. Service was excellent - friendly, quick and unobtrusive. Food was great with good selection of Greek and non-Greek items at reasonable prices. Definitely worth trying.

I came here for the first time during lunch with a colleague. This was during the lunch rush downtown. We were seated very quickly and most of the tables were full. Service was excellent and the food was great as well. I didn't know that this place existed. If you are feeling like Greek definitely give this place a try.
