We continue to carry on the Festival idea brought to us by our mothers, fathers, and grand-parents from their villages in every corner of Greece where every summer a Festival took place. We still gather from every suburb and every part of the City of Chicago to eat, drink, dance and enjoy the fellowship of our families, friends, relatives and guests.

Come join us this year and enjoy the home made marinated souvlakia and chickens on the outside grills, our home-made Pastitsio, Greek salads, enjoy a plate of gyros freshly cut, and then follow with our home-made traditional Greek pastries Baklava, Galatobouriko, Melomakarona, and of course our made from scratch, fresh Loukoumades (deep-fried honey puffs).
