Vios Cafe - Seattle






Met a dear friend at Vios Cafe for lunch today. Vios serves wonderful, home-style Greek food -- not the greasy stuff you sometimes find. Vios is very family-friendly, with a place for kids to play. Large tables may seat more than one party. Place your order at the counter, pick up utensils, find a place to sit and the incredibly friendly and skillful server will bring your order to the table. The vibe is very laid back and the food is extremely fresh and tasty. There is a small market section, and food is available by the pound to go.

Our friend Mary had a mezze salad plate (third picture)which I think was not on the menu but looked great, Mr. Gastronome and I split two orders, a grilled eggplant sandwich with Haloumi cheese and sweet onion relish, and an appetizer trio sampler with hommus, tzatziki and babaganouze (their spellings) pita, olives, onions and cucumber (pix one and two). This evening Mr. Gastronome admitted that he could happily have eaten all of both our orders. It's that good. We'll be back often.
