I feel this is a hidden gem with a great interior decor that adds to the ambience. Great menu with high quality food. Service could be a little quicker and more attentive, and portion sizes (ie lamb chops) could be better to provide better value. Other than that, this is a top restaurant in Philadelphia!

Estia does not disappoint. We started with the Estia Chips. My wife had the roasted chicken and I had the charcoal grilled salmon. Both were delicious. We had baklava for dessert. As usual, a very enjoyable dinner at Estia.
