Taverna the Corfu

Awesome! A little hidden jewel. Better than greek @ forum. Small menu but fabulous food!

I had no idea the other types of food offered at the Palladium movie theatre! I was so pysched that they had the fried pickle chips (not a fan of the spears)!! For some reason I was not feeling popcorn, and instead opted for the fried pickles. They came out fairly quickly, so I was not late to my movie! They even serve it with a tray that is compatible with the cup holders in the theatre, but next time I think I will try to get them in a to-​go container of sorts.
They also offer sushi, which I am DYING to try! If I hadn’t just eaten a hotdog! lol.
Can’t wait to try their other menu items!

Located inside of the Santikos Palladium theater, in the lobby, is a nook that is a restaurant– they have a dining area to eat there before or after your movie, or you can get your food to-​go and eat during your feature film.
There’s a pretty good variety of menu options, including burgers/​sandwiches, gyros, and sushi, which still seems to be a new addition. So far I have only tried the gyros, and it was surprisingly good. Called something like Everyone’s Favorite Gyro on the menu, it lives up to the hype. You have drink and chip options to add on, but the gyro itself is encased in soft bread, with a tasty tatziki sauce and an ample amount of tender and flavorful lamb, with the obligatory tomato and onion. Considering the usual reheated fare found in theaters and concessions areas, I was downright impressed with what I got and would get it again. It was large and filling, too, though keep in mind that it’s a theater so it was about $ 8, which is on par with a restaurant but sans the better side-​dish options.

When I first saw that the Palladium movie theater had a real (somewhat real) restaurant inside, I was more than a little excited. The idea of munching down on soggy popcorn as my dinner did not sound appealing. Plus, I love Greek food. So we go to the hostesses who nicely let us know that they are divided into two sections, the top and bottom floors. The top floor is restricted to people over 21 since there is a bar. The menus are the same on each floor and though you can still get alcohol on the bottom floor, there are usually more children running around down there. So we decide to take the elevator up to the second level and try our luck there. Evidently the girls downstairs were unaware of a huge party going on. It looked like some type of fundraiser and there were children running around everywhere. We find a group of tables off to the side and mosey around there for almost 5 minutes while the staff continuously ignored us. Many of them (the staff) were sitting together just chatting away while we looked at them pointedly in hopes to getting a table. The only place where the employees actually seemed to be working was the bar which seemed awfully understaffed for how popular it was.
We decided to head back down to the downstairs portion of the restaurant and were seated promptly. We ordered our food and drinks and everything came quickly (our Lotsa Meat pizza was fabulous). However, since the waitresses were all overworked AND they had to go upstairs anytime alcohol was ordered, the service soon slowed down to a complete stop. We didn’t see our waitress for almost twenty minutes and it took us hunting down another waitress to get our check. Another twenty minutes later, we finally finished paying and went into the theater which was completely full. We had to split up and I ended up in the third row from the front due to the slow service.
Yes, the food was fine and the prices were okay, but make sure to give yourself plenty of time before your show to make sure you can get there in time.
