One of just a handful of Greek restaurants in the Tokyo area, Fili offers well-prepared Greek standards in a homey, Mediterranean-inspired setting. There's a decent selection of Greek wines by the bottle or glass to go with your meal, and ouzo for the adventurous.

The three-course dinner menu comes with your choice of starter, middle course, and meat or seafood main dish. We started off with an excellent feta-cheese salad with mint leaves and some unusual greens, followed by a pleasingly flaky Spanakopita (spinach-cheese pie). Bread is served with a dish of the finest olive oil for dipping.

The middle course is limited to one selection for two people, with your choice of either moussaka or Hirino Me Praso, a hearty tomato-based pork stew with leeks. Our first main dish - calimari - was tender and well-seasoned, but the undisputed high point of the evening was the grilled lamb. Two somewhat fatty lamb chops were skillfully charred, and accompanied by a thick garlic-yogurt dip and roasted root vegetables.

The pastel-accented interior is cozy and unpretentious, and the ambience is friendly and relaxed. There are just a handful of tables here, so reservations are essential. In addition to full-course dinners (Tuesday-Saturday), the restaurant offers a four-course lunch menu on Saturday and Sunday. Dinner with drinks runs around Y6,000-7,000, while lunch is priced at Y3,200.
