Pegasus

If you like greek food, then I have the best place for you! The restaurant is called Pegasus located in Greek Town, which is in down town Detroit. I went there last weekend with some friends after the Tigers game. When we walked in, we waited about five minutes until we were seated. Inside the restaurant, it is decorated beautifully with vines covering the walls along with lights woven in them, giving the restaurant a romantic feel. Also, there are some statues inside the restaurant that makes you feel like you are in ancient Greece. The lighting inside is very dim which makes you feel relaxed.  Over all the atmosphere was great! it would be a perfect place to have a party, date, or a night out with friends. It is well kept and very clean. It is also located in a very fun part of detroit. Its not far from Comerica Park, and it is right next to the Greek Town Casino. Since Pegasus is located in a popular part of Detroit, you feel completely safe. I think I like Pegasus so much because it is totally different than any greek restaurant that I know of. The decorations, location, and tasty menu makes it very special. The service we had that night was wonderful. The waiter was very friendly and polite. He never forgot to bring us anything, and once we ordered he brought or food out extremely fast.  He had a strong greek accent that made it obvious that he was from Greece. The food was wonderful, fresh and hot. As an appetizer, our group ordered the saganaki “opa” cheese which was amazing! If you don’t know what saganaki is, you have to try it! its flaming cheese. The waiter lights the cheese on fire then shouts opa! That is by far my favorite thing off the menu. For the entrée,  I ordered the Spanakotiropeta, which is very similar to spinach pie. It contains  Fresh leaf spinach, imported feta cheese and spices in thin layers of filo. Along with that, I got the Klassiki Salata, which is the Classic Greek Salad. There is also a fantastic dessert menu with quite the selection. This time, I got the chocolate moose that was to die for. But in the past I have gotten the Baklava  which is of course, the classic greek desert. The menu isn’t very expensive. The prices range anywhere form around five to twenty seven dollars. If you are ever craving Greek food, or even just a fun night out with friends, then I highly suggest Pegasus! I promise you, you will not be disappointed!
