Molyvos ReviewA trailblazer of upscale and innovative Greek dining, Molyvos’s success is based on its ability to please those who want traditional Greek food as well as exciting, original Greek-accented creations. For those who like their Greek unadulterated, you won’t go wrong with cold mezes, such as the tzatziki, melitzanosalata, and taramosalata, and hot mezes such as spinach pie or grilled octopus. For Greek food with an edge, there is ouzo-cured salmon on a chickpea fritter or the seafood Cretan bread salad. Just a sampling of the mezes alone should be enough for anyone, but with entrees as good as grilled garides, wild head-on prawns barbecued souvlaki-style, and the chios pork and gigante bean stew, not ordering one would be a mistake. The knowledgeable sommelier will pair your choices with a Greek wine, of which there are many. Or, skip the wine and sample one or two of the dozens of ouzos; but don’t skip the desserts. Sure you’ve had baklava before, but have you ever had chocolate baklava? Yes, it’s as good as it sounds. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
