312 Shawmut Avenue – South End, Boston
Kava Neo Taverna is a neighborhood Greek restaurant that is patiently waiting for the city to allow it to open in their new home located on the corner of Union Park and Shawmut Avenue in the South End across from the South End Buttery.
Over the past couple months I have been able to meet and talk to the team behind this new restaurant, that I will admit I’m excited to have opening. They were gracious enough to send me a few photos of some of the items you can expect to find on their menu when they open. Think of this as a feast for your eyes and something to tempt you until they open.
Dolmades (stuffed grape leaves with rice)
Small Plate Options: Patates Lemonates (potatoes, lemon, oregano and olive oil);
Elies (olives, olive oil and oregano);
Spanakopita (spinach pie)

I’m with parkrunner … drooling over the menu options. My ancestors might be German but my tastebuds are definitely Greek.

Oh course the city is holding them up – at times Boston can be so unfriendly towards small businesses it s sickening

My husband’s ex was Greek. Tom got a couple of Greek cookbooks in the divorce and introduced me to Greek food. We are too far away to enjoy the offerings at Kava Neo Taverna, although we do frequent Atlantis Taverna near our apartment in Madison. I intend to show Tom these photos and see if it tempts him to experiment beyond the cookbooks. That horiatiki looks deliciously refreshing!
