Christakis Greek Cuisine - Tustin, CA : Spanakopita

No need for too many words. You like Greek food, try this place out. There's even live guitar music to be enjoyed.
Interior
The calm before the storm. We got there just after 5:00pm when they opened for the evening. So getting in was easy. Cozy setting. Getting out was harder since all the seats were filled.

Greek Salad
 My dinner started with a small salad. Part of the dinner meal.

Spanakopita w/rice, green beans, potato
The main dish. Spanakopita with rice, green beans, and a potato wedge. All pretty darn good. (And I don't love Greek food, but maybe that was because I didn't eat REAL Greek food.)

Spanakopita
The Spanakopita was crispy and flaky on the outside with lots of feta cheese on the inside. All good. The only thing I would say is that it was a bit dry. I myself have a dryer mouth and need lots of water so maybe that was it. Besides that, I liked that it wasn't too salty. The flavors were well balanced in my opinion. The Meat-eater thoroughly enjoyed his meal as well. Thumbs up!
