Milos Restaurant NYC, NY. There's Mediterranean magic and delightful aromas in the air, when you enter Estiatorio Milos, one of the leading Greek restaurants in New York.

Elegant and upscale doesn't even begin to describe the ambiance here. The charm and hospitality that the Greeks are known for, has been transported from the Greek Islands to Midtown Manhattan. The spacious dining room has high ceilings and large windows that create an open feeling, almost as though you are dining outdoors. Greek artifacts such as clay pots adorn the dining room. Umbrellas, as you might find at an out door café in Greece, decorate the tables.

But, the most eye-catching  thing of all at Milos, is their indoor fish market. With your waiter as a guide, you may choose from dozens of varieties of fish, that are artistically displayed on ice. Some of the catch has been sourced locally. Other  fish have been flown in from the Greek islands, Spain and Portugal, where they were caught, only hours before. Fresh is the KEYWORD at Milos.

You have an abundance of choices as to exactly how you'd like your fish to be cooked. You can enjoy a fresh caught fish, grilled, fried, sashimi or tartare. The expert chefs at Milos will even prepare your fish as they do in traditional Hellenic homes, kakavia or achnisto-style.

Chef Costas' philosophy is that sharing food at the table brings people together and enriches the culinary experience. That's why most menu items are designed and portioned to accommodate two people or more.

You can order lobster three ways: grilled, as a lobster Athenian Pasta dish or in a warm salad with Metaxas brandy. The grilled calamari is stuffed with feta and manouri cheese along with fresh mint. Organic salmon, Portuguese sardines, octopus, red snapper, black sea bass and sfyrida are among the selections from the sea that adorn Milos large display case. To complement your meal, the kitchen offers a diverse array of dishes. The Greek style fingerling potatoes with mint, dill, lemon and extra virgin olive oil, go with just about anything. Their grilled vegetable plate is a meal in itself. You will enjoy a generous serving of eggplant, zucchini, yellow squash, cipollini onions and haloumi cheese, accompanied by authentic Greek mint yogurt. The Santorini fava beans, chickpeas with spinach and steamed baby beets are  highly recommended. Other not-to-miss dishes are, the grilled octopus and the eggplant and zucchini chips with yogurt sauce.  

The craftsmanship that Milos superb kitchen is known for extends to their dessert selection. Their house-made Baklava ice cream is to die for as is the loukoumades and chocolate mousse. You might also ,(if you have room), look into a slice of their amazing Karidopita, which is walnut cake served with ice cream.
