I love the snapper too. Give the calamari another try. When I had 'em they were awesome and super crispy!

Ate here for the first time recently. The snapper was out of sight. Seasoned fries were tasty as well.
Calamari was a little on the greasy side, but hey, I'm not complaining.

Will definitely go back.

My wife and I along with another couple ate at Akti last week. The service was outstanding and the seafood was excellent. shrimp santorini and the red snappers were delicious. the appetizers were also very very good. we had octapus, salad, saganaki and bread. this place is a great seafood restaurant. you will not be disappointed. Kudos to the owners! They know the business well.

I should have said hi! I was the redhead in the white jacket sitting outside with the hubs...we LOVED our food. We got a nice bottle of red, some tzatziki, and we shared the whole red snapper. It was outrageously delicious. We will definitely definitely be hitting that place up again. :)

Hi Michelle,

They definitely have a veggie friendly menu (i.e. hummus, eggplant salad, zucchini croquettes, beet salad and plenty of cheese options). Try it out, it rocks.

Mmmmmmmm...Akti! My mouth is watering just reading this. As a member of the other "pack" that tried Akti this past weekend, I couldn't agree more with your assessment of the cuisine. The quality of the food was exceptional, and one member of our party (100% Greek living outside of the city) said he would definitely make the drive to Astoria to hit up Akti again.

It seems you were a little more fortunate in terms of wait staff; ours was very "green" and definitely needs a lesson on how to properly serve wine (not to sound elitist...). We also had a Greek white, and apparently it's somewhat difficult to find the particular bottle we selected, so more kudos to Akti!
