Alexis is a classic Greek taverna, and the crowds keep it packed as much for the great food as for the fun atmosphere. You're likely to be panhandled in front of the door, but don't let this put you off. On weekends there's belly dancing, and if you happen to be in town on March 25, you can help Alexis celebrate Greek Independence Day with a rousing big party. The menu has all your Greek favorites. The main dishes are good, but the appetizers are out of this world. The not-to-be-missed list includes saganaki (panfried cheese flamed with ouzo), kalamarakia (perfectly fried squid), octopus, and the tart and creamy avgolemono soup. Accompany these with Alexis's own fresh bread, and wash it all down with a bottle of Demestica wine for a meal beyond compare.
Main dishes $11-$15; appetizers $3.50-$9.
Open: Mon-Fri 11:30am-2pm; Mon-Thurs 5-10pm, Fri and Sat 5-11pm.
Reservations recommended.
Credit Cards: AE, DC, DISC, MC, V.
