about

The island of Samos sits in the Aegean Sea, part of the Greek Islands known for sun and stark, bright simplicity. Eating out on the island of Samos will likely mean dining in a taverna, a small restaurant that is an integral part of Greek cuisine and culture. Mt. Pleasant's Samos Taverna is just that: a small restaurant, though not uncomfortably small, but certainly huge on taste and culture. A refreshing change from teh expected blue and white-hued take-out order-at-the-counter Greek restaurant, Samos is the place to get authentic, fresh Greek cuisine made the way it should be.

From recipes long-used in the malanos family, dishes are prepared under the watchful and talented eye of Chef Phil Wallace. These selections are tasted regularly by owner George Malanos; he trusts Chef Phil to make sure they are always worthy of being served Samos style. Chef uses his own talent and direction to get the food of George's family and heritage onto the plates at our tables in Samos Taverna.
