Kefi

Upper West Side & Central Park


Run by chef Michael Psilakis, homey, contemporary Kefi channels a sleek taverna vibe while dispensing excellent rustic Greek dishes. Expect favorites such as lamb burgers with spicy whipped feta, seafood yiouvetsi (baked pasta and tomato casserole) and sun-dried-tomato hummus. You can also assemble a feast of meze (sharing plates), including crispy calamari, meatballs, and grilled-octopus-and-bean salad.

The wine list features a comprehensive selection of Greek vintages (from $42 per bottle).
