Barbounia

With ivy growing up the dimly lit columns, funky lighting and throw pillows strewn along several of the seating areas, Barbounia is anything but stuffy. This Eastern Mediterranean’s strength, though, is its traditional Greek offerings, so make sure to order the grilled meats and fish—the lamb chops are some of the best in town. Another thing to keep in mind: the portions are all generous, so bring along some hungry friends to share.
