Reviews for Molyvos in New York, NY
So incredibly elated that this gem of a restaurant has reopened. I love to get a bunch of the small plates/ mezze. The food is... absolutely delicious, and they have spectacular selection of greek wines too. Literally cannot go wrong. Read more
This is by far the best restaurant in the theatre district. It’s also a family business. The food is delicious and the... ambience is great. I sat at the bar before my party came. The cocktails were great; they serve a craft gin owned by the familyand it’s unique and tasty. I always like a Greek meal but at Molyvos the food is reliably delicious, the presentation isclassy and the service is great. Highly recommend the taramasalata - better than any you’d find in Greece!

Mediterranean is easy to do, but incredibly difficult to do at an elite level. Yet Molyvos seems dedicated to an authentic Greek... cuisine that separates itself from the crowded field. The mousaka and the Greek spreads are savory and delectable and I wasparticularly impressed with how well both the seafood and meat were prepared (usually restaurants excel at one or the other, notboth). Bonus points for great service. I'll definitely be coming back. Read more
What an exceptional meal!! No surprise here, as all of the Livanos' restaurants are incredibly delicious. From the food, to the... service and ambiance, we had the most amazing dinner. Will be returning soon! Read more
Great service, great food, good ambiance. Loved the dips, octopus, moussaka. Not just green food too, they had a few crudos and... stuff that were very tasty and refreshing. Also, always fun to try Greek wines and get a little adventurous. Good selection ofGreek liquors as well. Read more
Had an excellent meal here the other day - as a lover of Greek food this place is one of the best. The menu is very classic and... authentic, with taramasalata better than any I’ve had in Greece. They also have great cocktails, dips, and a fabulousambiance. My group ordered a huge variety of appetisers and none were a miss. For mains we had the stuffed peppers, moussaka,and dolmades which were all incredible as well, especially the moussaka. Highly recommend to anyone in the area. Read more
I dined here a few weeks ago while on a quick trip to NYC. I have to say I think this is some of the best Greek / Mediterranean... food I've ever had. The staff was extremely welcoming and friendly. Our waiter was fantastic and made some wonderfulrecommendations. We had the luxury of having a larger party (6) people so we were able to try a lot of options. We asked todine family style and the chef was happy to oblige. The octopus was probably the best I've ever had - so tender and flavorful. The lamb was fantastic and pretty much every appetizer that we ordered was great. They also had a great wine list with a ton ofoptions for every budget. The pricing was extremely reasonable (especially for New York). I will absolutely be back. Read more
I recommend the Orange wine, the Three Spread Sampler, Ouzo Flamed Haloumi Cheese Saganaki, Molyvos Moussaka, and Lahano... Dolmades. We ate here a week ago and live close to the new location on 43rd and 9th Ave. Great food and wine, wonderful service,laid back atmosphere and I enjoyed the decor---not because I'm into decor but because I had spent a summer in Greece travelling,camping, sightseeing and doing a little manual labor many years ago. The wall of Rhodian ceramics, plates caught my eye and oneof them is the same symbol, a Rhodian deer that I have on a mug I brought home from the trip (see the photos; two statues of thedeer also adorn the Harbor in Rhodos). And the stacked stone (w/no mortar) corner wall reminds me of the caretaker's cabin atthe Temple of Apollo Epicurius at Bassae of Phigaleia. Thank you for the meal and stoking the old memories.
