Specialty cocktails were tasty though weak. Would stick to your go- tos or wine. Other than that, the food was great. We had the Kellari chips and Octopus for apps. The Branzino and Dover Sole and the pasta special (we were definitely not a fan) for dinner and the brussel sprouts and lemon potatoes for dinner. The potatoes had great flavor but were dry in texture. You will smell like fish when you walk out of here but the decor and flavors may be with it.

I found myself at Kellari for a work dinner. The usual suspects for these events are steakhouses, so it was refreshing to see another type of cuisine pop up - bonus points for being a place I've never been to before. That being said, I was looking forward to checking this place out. Kellari serves up Greek cuisine with an emphasis on seafood. It's a very Midtown restaurant in terms of space - the dining room is large with a sizeable private room where we were seated. I liked the decor - it was stylish with a light color scheme that played into the menu offerings. As with other work dinners I've been to, there was a prix-fixe menu. We started with an assortment of dips paired with pita. This is pretty standard in most Greek restaurants - all of them had good flavor and the pita was fresh. We were also started with zucchini kefte which were essentially zucchini cakes with a tomato aioli. These were tasty - good flavor, relatively light, and not oily. For my main I had the salmon which was seasoned well and had great flavor. Service was good, and overall I had a good experience at Kellari. Many times when I go restaurants for work events I get the restaurant week treatment, but Kellari dished the goods. I wouldn't hesitate returning here for another meal.

Chefs kiss *** I cannot tell you how good this place is!!! I dropped by here for dinner and sat outside at their patio love the atmosphere here. Their food is even better! Luis was my server and he was also the best! I'm definitely coming back here to try their octopus because that is what Luis recommended after my calamari because he said the octopus is apparently better than the calamari BUT How?!!?! That calamari was the best way to eat calamari I've ever tried. I will never get deep fried calamari again! Their watermelon salad omg omg had a hint of spice but PERFECTION! Light and refreshing I could not have made it better and I make a damn good watermelon salad all the time. I need to come back and try everything else on the menu especially their whole fish.

Exceptional service. Outstanding food! Worth a revisit. Angel was terrific as our server and George was super as a host helping us out. The octopus was a good starter. Tender. Nicely cooked and with love oil and hummus. Good start The fish was such a hit. We loved the Sphirida. Recommend it if available!!! Picture after we were done.... Terrific buttery fish well cooked with appropriate volume of lemon and olive oil. I highly recommend this place!
