Agora : Formerly known as Jack’s Restaurant (American food)
Before we had Jack’s Restaurant (sometimes more like a ”bar”) pretty much the same as the other restaurants in the area, now we have Agora! It’s a more trendy, more elegant restaurant with something different that other areas don’t have in the neighborhood…THE CONCEPT!!!
I will say it’s more like a tapas place where food is served in small amounts. It’s a place you can come to after work for happy hour or simply go to share it with a friend and savor the Mediterranean/Turkish food by trying several plates in a fantastic atmosphere.
AMBIANCE 4 out of 5
FOOD 4/5 - Even though it was great, it was a little bit oily.
SERVICE 4/5 - great service, waiter very knowledgeable, always someone to refill our glasses..
THE + : The bread, which was amazing and is like pizza bread, was on the table with the tapenade .
The sparkling water was free.
The staff was very professional.
PRICE: a little expensive for what you have on your plate, but with the bread that they constantly give you can leave full…
