This restaurant had amazing food. All six of us were impressed with the menu, quality and service. We were all surprised how generous the appetizers were, we were able to share. They were NOT like the usual NYC appetizers that are one bite wonders. The main courses did not disappoint. We were thrilled that we did not walk away still hungry. None of us had room for dessert. Definitely a find.

I had an extraordinary dinner experience at Thalassa Restaurant. Chef Ralpheal’s appetizers, especially the crispy zucchini & eggplant chips with tzatziki and SPANAKOPITA, were delectable. The organic Greek salad and Mediterranean tacos with bronzino were equally delightful. The lightly fried calamari was out of this world.

Incredible experience! This place is extra special. Beautifully presented inspired, fresh, delicious food served in a sophisticated ambiance. We came for a quiet double birthday celebration. We started with ordering most of the appetizers to share and each was better than the other. Special mention to the kataifi scallops – the texture and flavor was fabulous. I am not usually a fan of octopus but this octopus was the most tender I have ever had (they have a secret to preparing it that you won’t believe) and I would eat it again and again. The fish was very fresh and prepared perfectly. Cheese board was on point and deserts were all excellent. The service was attentive and friendly. Peter the manager was charming and delightful. I can’t wait to return to Thalassa.

Food was absolutely delicious (and I am Greek so I know good Greek food). I got the scallops and they were cooked great, mushroom feta truffle risotto was amazing. All of the apps were delicious too. They ended our meal with some complimentary desserts and bubbles during for a birthday celebration! Played a lot of Greek music throughout the dinner. Was a little quiet but it was a Tuesday night

Antonia is the best bartender! She selected a wine white that I really enjoyed. They let us linger for the happy hour before our reservation- so we actually sat down ant least half an hour later. All the waitstaff was great.

Fantastic experience: beautifully presented dishes, fresh sea food, and amazing service. Our host Santiago was attentive, warm and professional. The ambience is sophisticated without being at all stuffy.

I remember when Thalassa opened many years ago and it was a gem. I haven’t been back in a while but walked by and saw their oyster happy hour. I’m so glad I was reacquainted with this restaurant because the service, food and atmosphere were top notch. As a native New Yorker I always appreciate tried and true restaurants. Thalassa is that place. And make sure you ask for Antonia at the bar… she’s a star.
