Want a taste of the Greek Isles right here in Philadelphia? Look no further than Estia, a welcoming, traditional Greek restaurant on the Avenue of the Arts and directly across from the Academy of Music.
From the minute you step inside, you’ll have an authentic Mediterranean experience — hand-chiseled Jerusalem limestone floors, hand woven rugs, vaulted ceilings, antiqued stucco walls, wood plank floors and exposed wood set the tone.
The homelike ambience is accentuated with an indoor courtyard, complete with whitewashed walls, a deep blue ceiling and a living olive tree that symbolizes the Greek goddess Athena’s gift to the citizens of Athens.
Meanwhile, the food is the real star at Estia. The menu specializes in whole grilled fish, served by the pound. Make your selection from the restaurant’s expansive displays of fresh fish, flown in from the Mediterranean, and watch as the chefs cook it to perfection over a charcoal grill in the sparkling open kitchen.
