Big news on the Pike & Rose dining scene: The long-awaited Melina finally opens its doors on Monday, Nov. 22nd. Housed on the ground floor of the new office building across from REI, this modern Greek restaurant is the latest venture from the founders of Cava and Julii: Ted Xenohristos, Ike Grigoropoulos and Dimitri Moshovitis. The menu ranges from veggie-centric plates like mushroom souvlaki and stuffed onions to meat- and seafood-heavy dishes like braised short rib, grilled octopus, lamb kofte kebab and beef tartare.
