Greek food can be widely varying in quality, and there’s nothing more disappointing than a poor, inauthentic Greek meal. Philadelphians rave over Estia, an authentic Greek eatery that serves up some of the best cuisine in the city. Start with the spectacular cucumber and tomato salad, generously garnished with some of the most toothsome feta you will ever eat. The go-to appetizer is the grilled calamari, which Estia nails every time, with a perfect consistency that’s resilient yet tender to the fork. The entrees are spectacular, with special attention given to the seafood. If you’re saving money, the lunchtime prix fixe menu is a great deal – seventeen bucks for an absolutely filling two-course meal. The décor is also great, with welcoming alcoves and an iced fish display that lets you see the picks of the market.
