TAVERNA at The Mar Vista

Greek restaurant · Mar Vista

@infatuation

"Greek meze are a great excuse for a snacky, family-style dinner much like flaming saganaki is a great excuse to shout opa! at a restaurant (and not embarrass yourself). Taverna in Mar Vista offers both of these things, as well as a casual hang for cold beer and Greek classics like crisp horiatiki and subtly minty keftedes. The You Dip We Dip platter feeds four with dips like sweet-salty tirokafteri and creamier-than-usual tzatziki, but save belly room for the highlight: the giant slabs of moussaka with enough broiled mashed potatoes to kickstart an afternoon nap." - sylvio martins, brant cox, nikko duren, garrett snyder
