Bayside residents will soon be able to order authentic Greek dishes and fresh seafood at Taverna Kyclades, a popular restaurant with locations in Astoria and Manhattan.

According to an employee at the Astoria location, the restaurant will expand to a space on Bell Boulevard. The employee declined to provide a specific address but said the owners are looking at a fall opening.

The menu, which will offer the same dishes at the current restaurants, will offer dishes “from the land” and “from the sea” as well as appetizers and salads.

Options from the land include lamb chops, rib-eye steak, kebabs, grilled quails and keftedakia (Greek meatballs), which are all served with a side of rice, potatoes, french fries, beets or horta (boiled greens).

The fish menu is more extensive with about 20 options including Mediterranean sea bass, red snapper, grilled swordfish, filet of sole, calamari, grilled or fried baby shark, shrimp and scallops.

Appetizers include a variety of dips, spanakopita, pan fried Greek cheese and more.
