About Us

The Art of Table-Side Service
by Woody Siklis (for Dine magazine)

​

We love the old-school steakhouse, the warm ambience, the sounds of cool school jazz and ‘50s pop that transports us to a time of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and the Rat Pack. We have come to Peter’s Fine Dining for this kind of experience–one where the staff are dressed in formal wear and respect the niceties of service.

​

No sooner do we sit down than a wicker basket brimming with toasty, warm, buttery garlic bread, and side dishes of pickles and meaty Greek black olives in olive oil are brought to the table. We are sitting in comfort admiring the accoutrements of the restaurant–crystal chandeliers, elegant paintings of pastural landscapes, a stone fireplace, and lush carpeting. We feel like we are dining in a castle. But what’s this? The hallway is covered in Kiss memorabilia: signed Kiss T-shirts, magazine articles of Kiss, and photos of Kiss performing on stage. This shrine to glam rock seems totally out of place until we are greeted by the owner of Peter’s, Tom Colomvakos, who looks like he could be a member of the band. Turns out that whenever the band is in town, they dine at Peter’s.
