The family-run The Greek by Anatoli in Yaletown is one of the few local Greek restaurants known for the beautiful patio with hip vibe and reasonable pricing. I’m a fan of their Country Lamb, as well as the “Meritage” red blend, which is produced at their own vineyard in Okanagan. They have just opened another location in Gastown that offers the same family-style share plates and vibrant atmosphere as its sister restaurants in Yaletown and North Vancouver, which they are showcasing in the upcoming Gastown Cocktail Crawl by Vancouver Gourmet Club.
I came here with food writer Areta (@foodgressing) and model James (@j_mesm_rtin) to take a peek of the cocktail crawl menu here.
We were impressed by the modern and elegant dining room with Mediterranean inspired touches. The food and beverage menus are similar to The Greek Yaletown with all the fan favourites. Apparently there is also live performing entertainment on weekend evenings.
