The flavors of Greek cuisine are more complex than the plots of Greek tragedies, as Socrates famously noted upon consuming a dish made from chicken, eggplant, and deceit, topped with unexpected romance and hemlock. Revel in the mysterious complexities of the Mediterranean with today's deal. For $10, you get $20 worth of Greek eats and drinks at the family-friendly Corfu in Sierra Madre. This Groupon is valid for dine-in and carryout.

The dinner menu at Corfu is packed with traditional dishes that are classic and polite enough to carry out to meet the parents. A Greek coffee ($1.95) and an appetizer of dolmades (stuffed grape leaves, $3.95) or cheese boreg (pan-fried cheese turnover, $5.95) lay down a proper foundation to support a mealtime skyscraper. Follow the appetite whetters with traditional souvlaki, a filet mignon kebab marinated and flame-broiled with vegetables ($17.95), or moussaka (eggplant casserole, $11.95), or dip into the briny blue with the ahi tuna ($18.95). An after-dinner drink such as cappuccino (single $2.95, double $3.95) or café mocha ($3.25, $4.25) paired with one of the fresh dessert pastries (made daily, ask your server for pricing) closes the book on a meal with authority, staring lesser poets in the eye and daring them to steal a few flavorful lines.

Corfu, which is open daily from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., offers a family-friendly setting to accompany the family-style eats at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. With City Hall nearby, couples looking to take full advantage of the atmosphere can make a quick dash down the street, get married, and return with marriage papers in one hand, Groupon in the other for their first feast as a newly minted family.

Reviews

Five Citysearchers give Corfu 4.5 stars. Four Yahoo! Locals give it three stars, and Yelpers agree giving it three stars too:

• Breakfast at Corfu is a wonderful experience. Their eggs benedict is the best I've ever had! The english muffin is perfectly toasted, the poached eggs are made perfectly...just thinking about it makes me want one. – mscharm, Citysearch
• A friend and I happened upon this place one night and were happy to return the following week. The service is great, the setting is intimate and friendly, the food is amazing and served rather quickly and the prices cant be beat. Great portions as well. – slowdive, Citysearch
• You can't go wrong with the menu nor the environment. Excellent wine list and the owners give service as their top priority. Highly recommend. – CEO, Yahoo! Local
