YOU CAN?T blame me for trying. I really wanted to find a great restaurant close to home. With all the hype (and that?s all it is, by the way is hype) surrounding Agnanti, I was hoping for a good experience\r
\r
MY FIRST VISIT to Agnanti was a disaster. We were sent the wrong food, one person didn?t get their food until 15 minutes after the rest of the party was served, when the food came it was a greasy and oily mess, and while they say they take credit cards, you better bring along cash. The owners of Agnanti seem more concerned with not paying their taxes and sending the money they make back to Greece than they are with offering a pleasurable dinning experience to their customers. Credit cards are like Kryptonite there. And don?t even try to split the check between two cards!\r
\r
MY SECOND VISIT did show marginal improvement with the food, but the service was equally worse. The ?ambiance? of the outdoor seating includes a noisy street corner, loud talking staff so you can hardly carry on a conversation and cramming tables right up against one another so you can actually share your meal with the person sitting next to you. I never had to wait for a table, so I don't know if they take reservations.\r

I WOULD RECOMMEND going to ?Elias Corner for Fish?(24-02 31st Street at 24th Ave.) for Greek style food or ?Mojave? (22-36 31st Street) for Mexican/Southwestern food.
Pros: Not much. Umm, if I think really hard...it's close to my apartment.
Cons: Bad dinning experience all around. Customers are treated poorly.
