Thelo GreekTM KuzinaTM

... a slice of Greece

Our Story

Thelo (I want) Greek is an open scratch kitchen with 30 seats in a cozy Greek taverna setting that mimics taverns in Greece with intimate wamth & ambiance.

 

Our menu &  flavors are personal, based on my origins, the formative years growing up in Greece, travels, exposure to international foods & the great chefs in my US restaurants.

 

The menu includes my interpetation of regional dishes alongside the unparalleled Greek street food. Note that our prices are based on the quality of the ingredients we use & not what the market will bear commited to a 4 Star Value

Thoughts...alongside food...

Humanity celebrating Festive Life thoughts…

 

Lets Celebrate 2024 Christmas & 2025, the New Year in Life, with Family, Friends, Roots, Humanity & USA 

At a time of severe world conflict and climate issues, including the US, Christmas, regardless faith, offers a joyful pause with time to reflect on what really matters in life. I respect all people’s faith & auctions based in the phrase: In: God we trust adding the word Benevolent. Jesus preached love, never retribution, making Christmas a Human Holiday,  making it possible for all faiths to join in the festivities & still be true to their religion. 

I have two simple wishes for 2025: A: Good health to all. B: Stop the wars, it will eliminate suffering, pain, homelessness & hate and divert the money saved to People and Climate worldwide.

 

Καλα Χριστουγεννα και  Ευτυχισμενο το Νεο Ετος

 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Greek Wine & Beers

Hugh Johnson’s quote: "If you have not yet discovered the quality & originality of Greek wines, now is the time to start," sets the tone of the indigenous rarity & taste of the delicious and flavorful Greek wines. Our selection includes only Greek indigenous grapes.  Nikolas Karavias of Nickolas Imports & Elena Fotopoulos of Ampelaki wines, collaborated in our wine list that represents great taste at a great affordable price!

 

In ancient Greece their LOVE of great wine & life, enjoyment was culminated by designating & celebrating the God Dionysus, patron of wine, pleasure & festivity. He's also associated with fertility, grape harvest, winemaking & ecstasy… all the good things in life.

He was a son of Zeus, king of the gods & Semele, a mortal princess in Greek myothology. Although he's one of the gods who sits on Mount Olympus, Dionysus is actually a demigod …just like what all of us aspire to be considered …. Based on the above & adding that Greek Food with a glass of wine is one of life’s ultimate pleasures, it becomes natural for us to make eating at Thelo ~ a typical and wonderfully fulfilling Greek experience adding wine and food specials.
